SUMMARY:SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE MARKUP OF ORBITS ACT\, July 27\, 2023\, DC\, 10:00 am ET
DESCRIPTION:The Senate Commerce\, Science\, and Transportation Committee will mark up a number of bills on July 27\, 2023 at 10:00 am ET in 253 Russell Senate Office Building.  The meeting will be webcast on the committee’s website. \nAmong the bills is the Orbital Sustainability or ORBITS Act sponsored by Sen. John Hickenlooper (D-CO) addressing the issue of space debris. \nThe bill passed the Senate in the 117th Congress on December 21\, 2022\, but there was no further action.
