Bill Nelson: “the United States should repeal Jackson-Vanik and pass Russia PNTR.”

We cannot operate our science agencies on the cheap, and we should not operate them without clear, multi-year direction.

Our seed corn is research and development. We do not want to ever give that up, and that is the mission of NASA.

It is critical that NASA remain focused on its core mission.
