It’s not clear if you’re referring to this post by HR 5245 or my Space Review article about the current status of HR 3752, but I will note that while I am an employee of Futron, none of the company’s contracts with the organizations you mentioned includes legislative analyses: I’m simply reporting what’s taking place with, and what is being said about, the legislation. Futron is also not eligible for the indemnification study mentioned in HR 5245 because it is not a nonprofit entity.

However, if any reader has any concerns about any potential conflict of interest, do not hesitate to contact me directly.
