Obama Asks Congress to Shift $100M from NASA for Job Initiatives

摘要

NASA stands to lose $100 million under an amended budget request U.S. President Barack Obama sent to Congress June 18.rnThe money, part of the $19 billion NASA could receive under the 2011 budget request Obama sent to Congress in February, would instead go to the departments of Commerce and Labor for initiatives aimed at helping Florida and other states bracing for job losses associated with the end of the space shuttle program.
