Washington, DC — On April 27, 2023, Congressman Brandon Williams (NY-22), announced the introduction of his bipartisan ‘DOE and NASA Interagency Research Coordination Act:’

“I am thrilled to announce the introduction of the DOE and NASA Interagency Research Coordination Act. My legislation will help support the cross-agency and collaborative research between the Department of Energy and NASA, codifying their working relationship into law,” said Rep. Brandon Williams. “Together, the DOE and NASA will engage directly on R&D for propulsion systems, fundamental high-energy physics, quantum network infrastructure, and more. These two agencies share a common goal of advancing scientific knowledge and improving our understanding of the universe. This bill will facilitate that mission and I look forward to the report on their joint findings and progress for years to come.”

"Strong collaborations push our understanding of the world to new heights," said Rep. Eric Sorensen (IL-17).
