Smilies Legend
[i]The Senate version included sections crafted by the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee, which is chaired by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)... The provisions for the Gateway, SLS, Orion and ISS directly contradict President Trump's FY2026 budget request. It calls for termination of the Gateway program... Sen. Cruz is a close Trump ally, putting them at cross-purposes on the Artemis and ISS programs. Whether they've reached an understanding that these programs will proceed as the bill specifies isn't publicly known. The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse and the Executive Branch is supposed to spend the money as Congress directs, but the Trump Administration is testing those limits.[/i]
