This is not true. For people with knowledge of UAP or UAP-related programs Congress has instituted procedures for those people to come forward and be protected in doing so. Those mechanisms are what allowed Grusch to come forward without fear of legal reprisal.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that just gives people with UAP knowledge whistleblower protection when it comes to reporting those programs through designated channels.
Whistleblower protection != the right to publicly disclose classified material
