Over the past 6 decades NASA has sent humans to the lunar surface, robotically explored, all the planets in the solar system, landed and operated rovers on Mars, monitored Earth and its systems, and studied the sun, and looked deep into the universe. NASA has led the multination International Space Station partnership and has supported continuous human operations on the International Space Station, ISS, for over 15 years. In addition, NASA has made significant progress in demonstrating the use of commercially contracted services for cargo resupply of the ISS. NASA's Earth science program has a long history of space-based observations in support of research to better understand our Earth's systems and our changing climate. NASA carries out aeronautics research, which has been vital to the growth and safety of America's aerospace industry. Today, NASA is making steady progress on developing the Space Launch System, the Orion spacecraft, and the exploration ground systems, the key systems that will enable us to once again send our astronauts beyond low-Earth orbit and eventually to Mars. As important as these activities are to advancing NASA's priorities in space and aeronautics, they are no less important to us here on Earth. Advances in human health research and medical diagnostic tools, materials, and advanced technologies developed through the space program have all helped improve our daily lives. We cannot take NASA's incredible achievements or the benefits they provide for granted. They will not continue without a sustained commitment of vision, resources, and support.

Legitimate science should underlie all actions at the Agency, from research to regulations, and be an integral part of justifying their actions. Unfortunately, over the last eight years, the EPA has pursued a political agenda, not a scientific one. Time and again, the EPA under the Obama Administration proposed regulations that would have no significant impact on the environment. The Clean Power Plan, proposed by the EPA last June, set impossible targets for carbon emissions. Yet even EPA data shows that this regulation would only eliminate a miniscule amount of global carbon emissions and would reduce sea level rise by only 1/100 of an inch. The EPA has proposed some of the most expensive, expansive, and ineffective regulations in history. The rules proposed and finalized by the EPA placed heavy burdens on American families. Often, huge costs were shouldered by the taxpayer with little to show for it. And the EPA routinely relied on questionable science based on nonpublic information that could not be reproduced, a basic requirement of the scientific method. Americans deserve to see the science for themselves. If the EPA had nothing to hide, why didn't it make the scientific data it used for its regulations publicly available? What was the EPA hiding? With the transition to a new Administration, there is now an opportunity to right the ship at the EPA and steer the Agency in the right direction. This item is printed on demand.
