Washington, DC Journalist Matt Laslo returns to The Good Trouble Show with his recorded interviews with lawmakers, both Democrat and Republican, in Congress on the stripping of The Schumer Amendment. This legislation was written by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Republican Mike Rounds and would have brought transparency and accountability from The Pentagon to the UFO / UAP topic.
