Hello friends,
I had the honor of meeting with Senator John McCain today when he met with local government and space leaders to discuss his Space Exploration Policy. I am so glad Senator McCain took the time out of his presidential campaign schedule to meet with us.
We discussed what we have been doing here in Florida, and what he can do as President, regarding the transition from the space shuttle to the Constellation program and keeping the United States at the forefront of the growing commercial space industry. I am very impressed with the tremendous grasp Senator McCain has on our space program and his strong desire to make the transition from the shuttle program to the Constellation program as seamless as humanly possible.
I have always been a strong advocate for Florida’s space industry. Over the past decade, I have served on The Florida Space Authority, Spaceport Florida, and now Space Florida. With your support, I hope to continue to be a champion for NASA and space exploration in Congress.
God Bless,
Bill
