The bill encourages both agencies to share research, technology, and data\u2014an effort designed to accelerate American innovation in science, energy, and space exploration.\n\n\u201cAlaska is where space and energy meet,\u201d Senator Sullivan said. \u201cWe\u2019re home to world-class launch facilities in Kodiak and leading micro-grid research at the University of Alaska Fairbanks\u2014some of the most advanced in the country. This bill helps ensure our state\u2019s scientists, engineers, and students are part of the national mission to explore, innovate, and power the future. The Department of Energy brings unmatched research labs and supercomputing capabilities. NASA brings world-leading space expertise. When they work together, it\u2019s good for America\u2014and it\u2019s great for Alaska. I want to thank Rep. Begich for leading this effort in the House and look forward to working with Senator Schiff and our colleagues in the Senate to pass this legislation.\u201d\n\n\u201cThe partnership between the DOE and NASA is essential for the future development of scientific and energy innovations,\u201d Senator Schiff said. \u201cI am proud to join Senator Sullivan and Representatives Begich and Whitesides in ensuring both agencies can collaborate to promote and contribute to a variety of programs, including wildfire mitigation \u2014 something that is critical to communities in California.\u201d\n\nThe legislation authorizes DOE and NASA to formalize their partnership and focus on joint research in areas such as advanced computing, energy storage, materials science, and space-based observation. Representatives Nick Begich (R-Alaska) and George Whitesides (D-Calif.) introduced companion legislation in the House.\n\n# # #", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:32:54Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.sullivan.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/sullivan-schiff-introduce-doenasa-research-bill-strengthening-us-energy-and-space-innovation"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8188101928681135, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
