On the recordMay 18, 1994
if you were investing in the stock market and you could invest in the space station, two of the things that you would evaluate would be, on the one hand, the track record, the past, and, on the other hand, the future prospects. The track record of the space station has been for 10 years that we have invested $11 billion. We have redesigned it seven times, and we still barely have a name for it let alone any kind of hardware. The future? Now we have a space station which we are supposed to invest with Russia on. We are losing jobs with this new space station. It is down approximately 20,000 jobs from the last Freedom space station, and we are turning the NASA budget into a foreign aid budget with $400 million going from NASA science to the Russians. This space station must be stopped, and I am introducing a bill today to stop it, and I would encourage my colleagues to support this legislation.
