AMERICA COMPETES REAUTHORIZATION ACT OF 2010
The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Pastor of Arizona). Pursuant to clause
1(c) of rule XIX, proceedings will now resume on the bill (H.R. 5116)
to invest in innovation through research and development, to improve
the competitiveness of the United States, and for other purposes.

The Clerk read the title of the bill.
Announcement by the Speaker Pro Tempore
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair will remind Members not to traffic
the well.
Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, our country faces a serious challenge. We are
in danger of falling behind our global competitors in Europe and Asia
in the critical fields of innovation and technology.
Our children have fallen behind the rest of the world in critical
math and science skills. We lag behind other economic powers in our
investment in research and science, and we rank 26th in broadband
penetration worldwide.
The alarm bells are sounding--and we have a responsibility to future
generations of Americans to respond.
That's why nearly 5 years ago we began to answer that call to arms. I
joined with then-House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and other
colleagues to launch The Innovation Agenda: A Commitment to
Competitiveness. The policy proposals we developed were the result of
extensive consultation and meetings that began at Stanford University
from the high-technology, biotechnology, venture capital and academic
communities. It was a long-term strategy to invest in the critical
areas of science and education to ensure that America will lead the
world in innovation.
The original COMPETES legislation, which passed in 2007, contained
the key elements of the Agenda.
That legislation laid the foundation for America's future success. It
has prepared thousands of teachers in math and science. It doubled the
funding for the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy's
Office of Science, NIST, and the Manufacturing Extension Partnership
over 10 years. It established the new Advanced Research Projects Agency
for Energy, ARPA-E, and funded high-risk, high-reward, pre-competitive
technology development.
The reauthorization of COMPETES we are considering today keeps these
investments in innovation on track.
I've already seen the benefits of the original COMPETES and other
government funding first-hand in my District, the heart of Silicon
Valley. The types of investments this bill makes have been the catalyst
for some of the greatest innovators and drivers of our economy,
including Google, Genentech, and Cisco. This legislation will fund the
next generation of innovators to ensure that the 21st century is an
American century.
Americans of my generation and that of my parents have always
accepted it as an article of faith that the United States would lead
the world in invention, ingenuity, and innovation. No matter what the
challenge, America has risen to meet the competition and we have come
out on top.
With this legislation, we renew our commitment to the generations to
come that we will plant the seeds today to ensure America's growth in
the future.
I applaud Chairman Gordon on this legislation and I strongly urge my
colleagues to support the reauthorization of the COMPETES Act.
Mr. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, as a cosponsor of the America COMPETES
Reauthorization Act, I rise today in strong support of this
legislation. In recent years we have watched as our country has fallen
behind in educating our children for the 21st century and developing
technology that our neighbors envy. Today's legislation will help to
turn these trends around by making the strong investments necessary in
research, education and manufacturing.
This bipartisan legislation reauthorizes our basic research programs
and lays the groundwork for doubling funding levels for the National
Science Foundation, the Department of Energy Office of Science and the
National Institute of Standards and Technology. Funding through these
programs has been critical to many of the faculty, staff, scientists
and investigators in my district who rely on funding from these
agencies to support their research. Research that has led to spin-offs
such as A123, now a leader in advanced battery technology. America
COMPETES also reauthorizes the Advanced Research Projects Agency for
Energy, which has made great efforts at developing the energy
technology of the future.
This research cannot be done without providing our students with the
strong educational foundation necessary for a college education. This
legislation will expand and improve STEM education from kindergarten to
college through scholarships to train secondary teachers in STEM fields
to teach in high need schools, provide grants to increase the number of
students who pursue undergraduate degrees in STEM fields, and establish
fellowships for recent doctoral degree candidates who can lead STEM
education research and program development. America COMPETES will also
help our colleges and universities to retain and recruit
underrepresented groups in STEM fields. These are necessary
improvements to ensure that the next generation of researchers,
faculty, engineers, and entrepreneurs can compete with their
counterparts abroad.
America COMPETES legislation will also provide critically needed help
to our small- and medium-sized manufacturers who have been hard hit by
the financial downturn. In order to improve competitiveness and access
to capital, America COMPETES will provide Innovative Technology Federal
Loan Guarantees for these manufacturers. To help manufacturers
modernize, this legislation authorizes the National Science Foundation
to support research needed for advances in manufacturing. To ensure
manufacturers will have the skilled employees they need, the
Manufacturing Extension Partnership Centers will be directed to work
with local community colleges to ensure training programs fit the needs
of local manufacturers. It will also reduce the cost share contribution
for Manufacturing Extension Partnership program centers, which provides
invaluable assistance to manufacturers by increasing their
technological capabilities, instituting green or lean manufacturing
techniques, and increasing their sales.
Mr. Speaker, I know my colleagues all agree that our country has the
best education system in the world and the most talented and innovative
manufacturers and entrepreneurs. However, they cannot continue to
compete with their foreign colleagues who have benefited from strong
leadership and investment from their government and a clear plan for
the path forward. The future success of our children and grandchildren
depends on our government partnering with private industry in investing
in the education and innovative technology of the 21st century. To
truly compete with our neighbors abroad, we must pass the America
COMPETES Reauthorization Act, which is why I urge my colleagues to vote
``yes.''
Mr. VAN HOLLEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of the America
COMPETES Reauthorization Act.
Over the course of our nation's history, one of our greatest
strengths has been our ability to innovate. We have led the world in
scientific discovery, expanding the boundaries of knowledge and
thinking creatively about difficult problems. However, in recent years,
we have seen our technological edge diminish as other countries
increase their investment in research and development.
In 2005, the National Academies released ``Rising Above the Gathering
Storm,'' warning that unless the United States made a serious
commitment to science and technology, it would lose its competitive
edge in the world economy.
We responded in a bipartisan way in 2007 with the original America
COMPETES Act, a comprehensive investment in education, research, and
small business. Today's bill continues and improves upon that approach.
It invests in the American innovation economy, providing the resources
necessary to create good, sustainable jobs at home and ensure that the
United States remains at the forefront of discovery.
Importantly, this bill will double funding for basic research at the
National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy Office of
Science, and the labs at the National Institute of Standards and
Technology, NIST, over 10 years. This funding provides the cornerstone
of our nation's research and development efforts. It is vital that we
have a stable, sustainable authorization path and that we fund it
reliably so that our nation's researchers know that they have
dependable support for long-term projects.
The America COMPETES Reauthorization Act will continue to assist our
nation's manufacturers and businesses by strengthening the
Manufacturing Extension Partnership at NIST, providing innovative
technology federal loan guarantees for small- and medium-sized
manufacturers, and coordinating with community colleges to ensure that
there are good, regional pipelines of workers with the skills necessary
to keep business moving. The Office of Innovation and Entrepreneurship
at the Department of Commerce will assist businesses with
commercializing the results of research to speed market application of
new products.
The legislation also creates a new program to develop Regional
Innovation Clusters, which will build up regional economies working
within a given field by bolstering scientific collaboration between
businesses and other entities. We will track the progress of these
clusters to determine best practices for other regions.
And finally, this bill continues to recognize that our nation's long
term success is dependent on the strength of our education system. It
coordinates science, technology, engineering, and math, STEM, education
efforts across the federal government, invests in grants and
scholarships for college students pursuing STEM careers, and provides
resources to diversify our future STEM workforce.
Mr. Speaker, I commend the House Committee on Science and Technology
and its Chairman, Bart Gordon, for their excellent work on this issue.
I urge my colleagues to join me in voting for this important
legislation.
