>From the "Professional Pipeline" column, by Carole Patton, in the
Aug 2, '82, issue of ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING TIMES, page 32, in a
discussion of engineering-related legislation:
"Two 'space policy' bills, one sponsored by Rep. George Brown,
Jr. (D-CA) and the other by Rep. Newton Gingrich (R-GA), are an
attempt to establish a long-range space program. STATUS: Both HR
3412 (Rep. Brown's bill), and the Gingrich bill are tentatively
scheduled for hearings in August."
***End extract ***
I recall recent plaintive messages wanting to know how to
influence the future of the space program. This seems an
excellent opportunity. I suggest those concerned write these
congressmen for copies of the bills and express their views.
