Rep. Ruben Gallego was interviewed about UAP and said there is a possibility they could be extraterrestrial in nature. The video of the interview in this link should be the most recent in the top left from January 11th.
Here's a transcript with credit to Joe Murgia on Twitter.
>Q: What's the difference between UFOs and UAP?
>A: There is absolutely no difference (between "UFOs" & "UAP") but I think the logic behind it is to basically demystify it all, to destigmatize the conversation about these phenomena, whether they are UFOs. Then we can talk further about that. But one of the biggest problems we are recognizing, I recognize, is that we have a lot of ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ง๐ฆ๐ด๐ด๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ pilots, people in the military, that are afraid of uttering the word, "UFO." So by kind of desanitizing the language, I think this is an approach to get more people to actually talk about what they're seeing."
>Q: Why is Congress directing the Pentagon to study UFOs?
>A: I would say, probably, a lot of credit has to go to Harry Reid who kind of started this movement a couple of years ago by putting money to study UAPs a couple of years ago. I think the other thing that really has happened is like there is a new, renewed sense of Congress that we need to know what's going on & us burying our head[s] in the sand is not going to help to find an approach to this. I'm not the person saying, 'Oh, there's definitely some little green men in these UAPs out there.' What I'm saying is, 'If we ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ a problem, the problem is we have these unidentified objects. And if you have a problem like that, then you need to have a solution to do that. And in order to have a solution, you need to have a study and treat this like a real, potential threat that it is. When I say 'potential threat,' it could be some really advanced Russian weaponry, some really advanced private weaponry. It could be natural, things that are happening in nature that are affecting our radars. Or yes, it can be extraterrestrial, at the same time.
>Q: What is a UFO Rapid Response Team and how would they work?
>A: OK, well it's not as cool as it sounds (laughs). But look, it's essentially a team that is to investigate occurrences of UAPs, right? And the most important thing for their job to do is to gather information and gather information quickly. And what usually happens for a lot of

He described the evidence heโs seen as โuselessโ and โanecdotal.โ
He said itโs โunfairโ for NASA administrator Bill Nelson to speculate โotherworldlyโ objects or โaliensโ because the data doesnโt prove anything like that.
Add his name to the list of insiders who are interested, but have not seen โsmoking gun,โ unambiguous footage.
Even retired CIA officer Ramirez, the guy who has had some pretty wild experiences, said he hasnโt seen footage of โcraftโ only โorbsโ of light.
Then thereโs Colm Kelleher, AAWSAP insider, who said they didnโt have โsmoking gunโ footage.
Lue has said heโs seen this type of footage, but he also stated he wonโt be breaking any NDA, so I donโt expect any more footage from him.
If youโre in this thing to see smoking gun, unambiguous footage, Iโm afraid that might be asking for too much.
