To ensure policymaker understanding of the past, present, and future contributions NASA has, and will, make to the economic, scientific, and diplomatic success of the United States.

The Caucus Goals

"There has been a lack of representation in the educational activities on Capitol Hill for many of NASA's most important programs. Many of these programs that are critical to U.S. national interests, and there is an interest here to learn more and support them. But the current landscape does not yet support that level of interest," said Rep. Knight "I am proud to stand up this caucus so we can bring timely information to policymakers on these important issues related to exploration, research and development, and strategic investments vital to the future of U.S. air and space competitiveness. I look forward to working with the members of this caucus to ensure this institution has the tools it needs to build on the many contributions it has made to American achievement."
