The Oversight Committee announced the Sept. 9, 2025 hearing in a formal release, then posted the official hearing page with schedule, witness roster, and evidence links, establishing the witness-index baseline for this event.12
Hearing witness evidence chain
The chain starts with the announcement and hearing notice, which confirms the event title, date, room, and public witness lineup before opening remarks were issued.123
The witness roster is reflected again in the hearing materials, creating the bridge from scheduled witnesses to linked documents. Those linked documents include written testimony and written statement artifacts for each witness, which become the operative witness evidence set for indexing.245678
Opening remarks were posted as a committee release and serve as the oral-state bridge from pre-hearing scheduling to witness-filed documents used during the hearing day.923
The final anchor is the Congress.gov text transcript, which preserves the hearing’s record timeline and allows cross-checking whether every published witness artifact is represented in the official proceeding. In this hearing flow, the transcript listing and committee documents identify the same event record and preserve sequence from filing to proceeding.1032
Documentary consistency checks
The primary consistency check is witness alignment: every named witness on the hearing page appears in at least one linked written testimony or statement PDF under the same hearing materials set.245678
The secondary check is date/title alignment: the announcement, hearing materials, and transcript references all point to the Sept. 9, 2025 hearing session under the same UAP transparency framing.123
The final check is closure completeness: the hearing wrap-up release confirms the session concluded under the same topic line, supporting that the record chain is complete through transcript publication and committee follow-up communication.102
