Congresswoman Jackson Lee believes that space exploration remains part of our national destiny, and she is working in Congress to ensure that the future of NASA is one of continued progress. She has steadfastly emphasized that while safety must be the number one priority of NASA, this should not deter us from pushing the boundaries of technology and discovery. With both the Space Shuttle Atlantis and the International Space Station experiencing serious safety scares, Congresswoman Jackson Lee continues to work for improved safety standards and oversight.

Congresswoman Jackson Lee feels that the space exploration and research done at NASA will inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers, and will provide the technological advances needed to keep America's economy strong.
