Garver: Senate Bill Advances President’s Agenda

Deputy NASA Administrator Lori Garver

Eric Berger at the Houston Chronicle has a Q&A with NASA Deputy Administrator Lori Garver about the Senate bill. An excerpt:

What do you think about the Senate bill?

It is something we feel is very strongly aligned with the milestones the President laid out, accelerating the beyond low-Earth orbit capability.

Can I take that to mean the White House is likely to support this bill in large part?

We think it definitely supports key aspects of what the President set out to do with NASA and we think it’s a big step in the right direction.
