Science, Space, and Technology
I am proud to serve as a member of the Science, Space, and Technology Committee, which monitors the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and our aerospace industry. Through my service on the Subcommittee on Space and Aeronautics and the Subcommittee on Technology and Innovation, I look forward to supporting Florida’s space and technological industries.
As we mark the shift from the Space Shuttles to a new era in space exploration, I will ensure that the issues of preserving current jobs and creating new economic opportunities. There will be some losses in this change. I will work hard to ensure that Floridians will survive this change, ensuring that the technicians, scientists and builders are trained for new opportunities, and that ethnic minorities get their fair share of the revenues regarding the issues of the development of space technology and the use of humans in space flights.
I am determined to work with my colleagues as we set a new, clear path for the success of NASA. NASA and the many varied companies that have been created as a result of the space program have been an invaluable contributor to advancing education and commerce to Florida and our nation. As we make difficult fiscal decisions on Capitol Hill, I will continue to educate my colleagues on the importance of space, technology, and the role of all Americans in contributing to our intergalactic success.
