Eddie Bernice Johnson: “If NASA and the Administration can't meet simple hearing deadlines, it doesn't inspire great confidence in their ability…”

Written statement by Representative Eddie Bernice Johnson, Chairwoman, Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, U.S. House of Representatives.

Congresswoman Johnson, thank you for asking and checking in on this issue affecting our workplace.

For too long we have failed to prioritize, or even acknowledge, the vast contributions that the Black community and other minority groups have made towards scientific discovery and innovation.

So also an enthusiastic supporter of the CHIPS and Science Act, which, as you know, really is building on quantum technologies.
