INTERAGENCY OVERLAY – CONGRESSIONAL SUBCOMMITTEE

​

Date: June 19th, 1995
From: Agent Kelsey
To: Oversight Liaison – Legislative Affairs Division
Subject: Testimony Guidance – House Committee on Anomalous Threat Response

​

Notes for briefing before Reps. M. Higgins (R–OH), D. Sklar (D–MI), and Rep. John Lewis (D–GA):

​

- Frame resonance events as infrastructure threats—grid instability, geological anomalies, EM interference.
- Downplay “entity” language; say “phenomenological patterns.”
- Stress importance of keeping research under civilian-military compartmentalization to avoid Cold War–style escalation with foreign powers.
- Avoid saying “portal” unless directly quoted. Instead: “localized topological divergence.”

​

Rep. Higgins has shown interest in leyline mapping legislation. Recommend steering him away from proposing a national survey.

​

Rep. Sklar has asked multiple times about the Westville event. Reiterate that it was resolved by regional assets and does not meet threshold for federal emergency response under Mandate 9.2.

​

Rep. Lewis, to his credit, just asked how we sleep at night.
