I hope we could reserve the right to hold another hearing on this matter, if warranted.

I fail to see how this escape pod will lessen our reliance on other nations for our access to space.

Your destructive actions toward the Constellation program will only ensure that members cannot trust you.

I believe that the President canceled the wrong rocket program.

I think the prudent financial circumstance is to stay with what we have got instead of plunging into the unknown.

This plan lacks vision, is unrealistic, and jeopardizes our entire human space exploration program.

I want to get into Ares I versus the Falcon 9.

Scrapping this investment and starting fresh does not make sense to my business sense.

At the current time, for NASA to put its employees, its astronauts onboard something as potentially hazardous as a rocket ship, they are going to have to have a robust program to check its safety.

This plan would destroy decades of U.S. space supremacy by pinning our hopes for success on unproven commercial companies.

It is my understanding that you have stated to congressional members that you think Ares and Orion are no safer than the Falcon 9 and Dragon capsule.

The President's alternative plan does not provide significant advantages in cost, schedule, performance, or safety.
