A group of former members of Congress is scheduled to hear testimony this week on the existence of space aliens, the Detroit News reported on Monday. Former Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick (D-MI) is presiding over the hearings, which have been sponsored by Paradigm Research Group, an organization that describes itself as a “political advocacy organization seeking an end to a 64-year, government imposed truth embargo regarding an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.”
The hearings, the Detroit News said, will focus on “proving alien contact with Earth and a government effort to cover it up.” They will be held through Friday, clocking in at around 30 hours.
Kilpatrick told the paper that she is waiting to hear the testimony before passing judgment on the topic of debate. The group is paying her about $20,000 for her services. The hearings are being held at the National Press Club in Washington.
Joining Kilpatrick are: Former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-AK) and former Reps. Reps. Lynn Woolsey (D-CA), Darlene Hooley (D-OR), Roscoe Bartlett (R-MD) and Merril Cook (R-UT).
