“I want to particularly note the contribution that the chairman of the subcommittee, the gentleman from California [Mr. Rohrabacher] has made. Much of the detail of this bill reflects his considerable input and his commitment to the space program.

I, for example, have challenged his description of himself as an active partisan by accusing him of becoming a pragmatic statesman. He may not want me to say that in public, but it does reflect the fact that he has been able and has worked very closely with the minority in developing this excellent bill.”
