                               of oregon

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, March 5, 2019

  Ms. BONAMICI. Madam Speaker, I was unable to be on the House floor on 
February 25, 2019 for the vote on H.R. 539. My flight from Oregon was 
delayed because of weather conditions. If I had been present for the 
vote, I would have voted in favor of the Innovators to Entrepreneurs 
Act. This bill would expand the National Science Foundation's 
Innovation Corps program to give scientists and engineers the tools to 
commercialize their research. I support this effort to help researchers 
bring their innovations to market, and I commend the House on the 
bill's passage.
