“The Committee on the Judiciary, to whom was referred the bill (H.R. 3237) to enact certain laws relating to national and commercial space programs as title 51, United States Code, `National and Commercial Space Programs’, having considered the same, report favorably thereon and recommend that the bill do pass. H.R. 3237 would enact certain laws relating to national and commercial space programs as title 51, United States Code, `National and Commercial Space Programs’. H.R. 3237 revises and restates certain laws relating to national and commercial space programs and re-enacts those laws as title 51, United States Code. The bill was prepared by the Office of the Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives, as part of its responsibility under 2 U.S.C. 285b to submit to the Committee on the Judiciary proposed bills to enact titles of the United States Code into positive law. This bill has undergone extensive review in two previous Congresses. Predecessor bills to H.R. 3237 were introduced in the 109th and 110th Congresses — H.R. 3039 in the 109th, and H.R. 4780 in the 110th. This bill is substantially identical to H.R. 4780, with a few revisions to respond to comments received.”
