On the recordJanuary 28, 2004
Reclaiming my time, that is within the existing personnel allocation. This is not additional money, additional to the $2 billion. They are saying if NASA took advantage of all these programs, scholarships, retention incentives, moving expenses, the types of things that happen every single day in the business community, they have to do it with the existing personnel budget, no new money. I am like the gentleman from Arizona, perhaps not as fiscally conservative, but I am moving in that direction. But the point is this does not add money; it allows more flexibility. The estimates that the gentleman from Arizona are referring to are estimates on what this could cost from the existing budget by using the flexibility that we are proposing.
