Burchett Introduces Bill to Terminate AARO

Representative Tim Burchett introduced H.R. 8197, the Terminating the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office Act, proposing to shut down AARO within 60 days and redistribute its functions across existing military branches. The bill prohibits the Secretary of Defence or Director of National Intelligence from creating any centralised replacement office, making a simple rebrand legally impossible. Burchett cited AARO's failure to produce credible findings and its pattern of dismissing military witness testimony.
