House Passes SPACE Act

House Sends Crucial Commercial Space Bill to President’s Desk
“House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), House Science, Space, and Technology Committee Chairman Lamar Smith (R-Texas), and Space Subcommittee Chairman Brian Babin (R-Texas) today praised passage of crucial legislation that provides guidance and certainty for American commercial space partners. The bicameral, bipartisan agreement on H.R. 2262, the U.S. Commercial Space Launch Competitiveness Act, consolidates language from the House-passed SPACE Act with provisions from the Senate’s commercial space legislation. It is now headed to the president’s desk to be signed into law.”

    Perhaps someone who’s knowledgeable about such things can explain whether the House-approved version of the bill provides the level of funding the program actually needs?
