Budget Update
House Report 109-520 – To accompany H.R. 5672 – NASA, House Appropriations Committee
“The recommendation includes funds to support NASA’s new vision and mission for space exploration, while supporting requested funds for the continued operation of the Space Shuttle. The Committee is very concerned about the need to maintain the nation’s leadership in science and technology. To this end, the Committee has provided additional funding above the request for aeronautics research and science programs. The recommendation makes modest changes to NASA’s request to achieve a balance between exploration and NASA’s other core mission programs.”
