(1/5) As a member of the House SS&T Committee, a Representative of many great NASA employees & contractors, & someone directly involved in this process, I would love to correct the record. The spread of misinformation doesn’t do anyone good, does it? https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/01/house-bill-seeks-to-gut-nasas-artemis-plan-resurrect-journey-to-mars/?amp=1 …
(2/5) There is, in fact, strong bipartisan support for the Administration & @NASA’s Artemis program—not limited to the Committee—but Congress as a whole.
(3/5) Congress remains committed to boots on the Moon for a number of reasons. You use “flags-and-footprints” to describe Congress’ vision for returning to the Moon & that couldn’t be further from reality.
(4/5) Further, the claim that the bill prohibits the ability to “tap lunar resources” is factually incorrect. & To accuse Committee of “handing NASA’s human spaceflight over to Boeing” (as your title suggests) is a pretty wild accusation. & we both know that’s just not the case
(5/5) I could go on. Some facts:
1. the House bill is still subject to change as it makes its way through the legislative process.
2. We ARE going & we are going TOGETHER—NASA, with the help of our Commercial and International partners.
#Artemis
Prove it. I've seen zero Democratic office holders offer "strong support" for Artemis. And even very few Republicans not in the White House.
