Meeting with the House Committee on Space...

This sounds like a workable plan, but the first stage of the shed needs to be built in Houston. Also the shed door is an issue, doors are traditionally handled here at Goddard.

But... this proposal completely ignores my constituents from California, they will need to be included somehow! If you want this proposal to go through at all, find something for JPL and AMES to do.
