The legislation also continues American participation in the ISS until 2024. The bill also classifies “government astronauts” when NASA relies on private space ventures to take its astronauts into space.
Florida’s two senators — Democrat Bill Nelson and Republican Marco Rubio — joined Cruz as original co-sponsors of the bill. U.S. Sens. Cory Gardner, R-Colo., and Gary Peters, D-Mich., were also backers of the bill.
