But adequately funding SLS, Orion, and ground systems are only part of what is needed for Lunar exploration.

The Trump Administration has harnessed this spirit of discovery and focused our human space exploration efforts.

When we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Moon landing this summer, it was a great reminder of the great things that we can achieve with perseverance, technical excellence, and a pioneering spirit.

But this steady funding is a blessing and curse.

Year after year, the Trump Administration has proposed increased funding for NASA Exploration Systems.

Congress and NASA need to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars and ensure these programs stay focused, on schedule, and within cost.

We are once again at the threshold and our actions now will determine our future leadership in space.

The integrity of forensic science can have a profound impact on the lives of Americans who are victims of crime, and those accused of committing a crime.

Our task is to look at what role the federal government can play to advance the accurate, reliable, and fair use of forensic science.

Thank you, Chairwoman Johnson for holding today's hearing on the state of forensic science in the United States.

DNA evidence has revolutionized the justice system.

To close, since I have no additional speakers. Mr. Speaker, simply put, H.R. 617 harnesses the power of DOE's supercomputers to revolutionize the way we care for America's veterans. I want to thank Representative Norman for his leadership…

To close. I rise again in support of H.R. 2397, the American Manufacturing Leadership Act. This bipartisan legislation takes important steps to reform the Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act of 2014. It requires greater…

To close. The love of learning starts young, and the Building Blocks of STEM bill promotes this by prioritizing a focus on early childhood STEM education. It gives us the opportunity to encourage girls to get and stay engaged in STEM…

For too long, U.S. space exploration has been plagued by a lack of both a vision and a long-term commitment.

It's time to renew that legacy and rekindle that resolve.

In 1969, driven by curiosity, ambition, and an innate urge to explore, Americans landed on the Moon.

A return to the Moon requires steadfast, consistent support. It requires a true national commitment.

I represent the northwest half of the great State of Oklahoma.

Thank you, Chairwoman Johnson, for holding this hearing, which is another opportunity to examine the impacts of a changing climate on our country and the world at large.

We need to understand its specific effects so we can adapt and continue our economic growth.

Better research will give us greater insights into how we can expect shipping routes to change so we can prepare to address these issues.

There are significant economic implications from the energy rights, mineral deposits, and tourism opportunities.

We do not have a firm grip on how these weather patterns will change due to melting and how we can prepare for these changes.

We have a responsibility to address our national research priorities, and those must be broader than just how the climate's changing.
