House Appropriations CJS Subcommittee Hearing on NASA Issues, March 2013

The House Appropriations Commerce-Justice-Science subcommittee held a hearing on March 20, 2013 with NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden.  Ordinarily, this would be the hearing where NASA and the subcommittee discussed the budget request for the upcoming fiscal year, but the Obama Administration has not yet submitted that request.  Instead the hearing focused on subcommittee chairman Rep. Frank Wolf’s (R-VA) deep concern about Chinese access to NASA facilities and information, and generally on the budget situation at NASA.   SpacePolicyOnline.com published a summary of the hearing on March 20, 2013.
