UAPTF is now AARO. But it’s not enough for congress to be briefed. If what we’re seeing is a better understanding of physics, than this would affect everyone’s lives

Then maybe they can mitigate the risk without you knowing about it.
What is that supposed to mean? This is about gaining a further understanding of reality; the universe

I didn’t forget. This issue could be both a security risk for our military members, and also an exciting venture for science.
If it was just a science thing or they didn't care about the security risk, I don't see why they'd keep forming new organizations that are increasingly secretive.
Because it's not just a science thing. It's a potential threat. Threat is defined as capability x intent. We are seeing these things with insane capabilities, but not really any intent (other than maybe observing our technology).
