Rep. Frank Wolf and Five Others Will Call on Bolden for 30 Day Study

Congressman Frank Wolf (R-VA), ranking member of the House Appropriations Commerce-Justice-Science (CJS) subcommittee and five other Republican Congressmen tomorrow will hold a press conference calling for NASA Administrator Bolden to appoint a team to report back before President Obama’s April 15 “space conference” on how to maintain uninterrupted human access to space.

According to a press statement from Congressman Wolf’s office, Bolden will be asked to appoint a team of “NASA experts to review how exploration spacecraft and launch vehicle development and testing may be maintained within the proposed budget request to ensure uninterrupted, independent U.S. human space flight access to the International Space Station and beyond. The team should report back within 30 days in order to provide the administration and Congress with this necessary information – before the President’s space summit in Florida on April 15.”

The press conference is scheduled for noon tomorrow (Thursday) in room HVC-201A Capitol. The other Members are: John Culberson (R-TX), Pete Olson (R-TX), Rob Bishop (R-UT), Michael McCaul (R-TX), and Bill Posey (R-FL). Culberson also is a member of the CJS subcommittee.
