As CJS Chairman, my goal is to restore NASA to the glory days of Apollo. This funding is a down payment to ensure that NASA will always have the ability to preserve America\u2019s undisputed role as a world leader in space.\u00a0 \r\n\u201cToday\u2019s CJS bill will speed up the return of American astronauts to low earth orbit and the International Space Station. It will also get the deep space SLS heavy lift rocket off the ground as quickly as possible. \r\n\u201cAlso, my bill will help revitalize Houston\u2019s Johnson Space Center, because we have significantly increased funding for manned space programs and the Orion manned spacecraft.\u201d\u00a0 \r\n# # #\r\nCongressman John Culberson represents the 7th District of Texas and Chairs the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science (CJS), which oversees the Department of Commerce, the Department of Justice, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Science Foundation, and other related agencies.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "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": ["http://culberson.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=398350"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8829198777675629, "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"}
