And thank you, Mr. Lipinski. You'll have the opportunity on the next bill for STEM education grants to add $8 million.

Because we should not simply rubberstamp the Trump Administration's proposal to have the Department of Commerce be the lead agency any more than we should simply adopt the interagency consensus reached in the Obama Administration that FAA…

The United States currently has the best aerospace industry in the world.

I hope our Committee continues to also have the discussion on space traffic management.

To try to ram that through at this point is a real mistake and is in contrast to actually having some regular order.

What this amendment does at page 27, line 12, it adds the Committee is supposed to also consider our aerospace industry's access to adequate, predictable and reliable ratio frequency spectrum.

I wanted to support this legislation and cosponsor it because Huntsville, the Marshall Space Center, is one of 10 centers that NASA uses to make sure that we're preeminent in the space program and that we will get our astronauts out there…

This is well past the 120-day deadline currently required in statute because there is no mechanism to enforce any timeline.

the moniker, the name of this bill, the HONEST Act, really should be the Dishonest Act because it dishonestly describes what's going on in the Environmental Protection Agency

that amendment helped what we had last year, which was the Secret Science bill, but that was a lousy bill then and this is still a lousy bill now

I think this is an important bill.

I appreciate the majority's willing to work with us in this manager's amendment.

We have to have management of the traffic up there.

I urge my colleagues, Democrats and Republicans, to support the amendment to restore the $471 million cut to earth sciences.

The missing piece to this puzzle right now is a requirement for NASA to efficiently plan on how we would take advantage of this opportunity in 2033.

We found in the hearing--it showed that the commercial sector, the academic sector, and the Federal sector were all working kind of in silos.

Only after it has been done--it has done its own work on the issue and examined the Administration's proposals in depth can Congress make informed decisions about the best way to proceed.

I'm confident we can take the two versions of this legislation and agree on a final text, which will pass the House and the Senate.

I like 3086 better than my substitute amendment, but reality is that this is what we agreed on.

My Ranking Member makes a lot of good points, but no.

Thank you, and I move to strike the last word.

The gentleman just spoke about liberty. My friend from Pennsylvania spoke about self-rule. Today we are talking about bureaucrats, but what we really should be talking about is the effect of this bill on our agencies in Homeland Security…

``The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it. ``No bill of attainder or ex post facto law shall be passed.''

But I still think you're a bank. And we treat banks differently than we treat grocery stores, because you're the heart of the financial system.

I look at banks as something different. We came in with $800 billion to save the banking system when it was collapsing because it's something different.
