A Senate committee Thursday voted to establish a new U.S. space agenda that one of the panel's members says will protect hundreds of jobs at the Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans.
"With this bipartisan bill, we're not only going to start making the changes we need to save Michoud, we're going to ensure these jobs stay in Louisiana and bring NASA back in line with its original mission as the world's leader in manned space flight," said Sen. David Vitter, R-La.
Vitter made his comments after the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee unanimously approved legislation setting future space goals for NASA.
