On the recordJuly 21, 1997
I want to say it was a pleasure for me to hear the Senator from Ohio talk about this very important subject. I am proud the Senator from Ohio was once my constituent when he made the historic trip into space--that was really the beginning of our space program--and made us all so proud that we really could conquer space. What we have learned and what we have done for quality of life and for health research since his first foray into space has been, perhaps, more than even he could have dreamed would happen. I am very proud he is a supporter of the space station and the NASA Program and knows that what he did in the beginning is certainly not the end and certainly, I hope, we can continue the legacy that he has left for us.
