In September of 2011 Paradigm Research Group submitted a Disclosure Petition to the White House’s “We the People” project. It was one of the very first petitions submitted. The petition required 5,000 signatures to receive a response from the White House and received 12,000.  [Note: the “We the People” project was terminated by the present administration.]

The response from the Obama administration came on November 4, 2011. This response was the first time the executive branch has put a position in writing on the extraterrestrial presence issue and was a milestone.  A second Disclosure petition was submitted on February 23, 2012 designed to draw attention to the Rockefeller Initiative (1993-1996). Three more White House petitions were submitted addressing nuclear weapons tampering, the actions of CIA officer Chase Brandon and the Roswell events of July 1947.
