U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security
The U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security, founded in 2002 as part of the Department of Homeland Security Act following 9/11, is a U.S. government standing committee in the House of Representatives. It oversees homeland security matters including border protection, cybersecurity, and counterterrorism. In UAP/UFO contexts, it has limited direct involvement compared to the House Oversight Committee, which held key hearings on UAP transparency, AARO, and whistleblowers in 2024-2025. No notable UAP-specific achievements or programs are attributed to Homeland Security; searches highlight Oversight's probes into Pentagon secrecy and bills for declassification. Currently active in the 119th Congress (2025-2026), focusing on immigration and security threats.
