Hutchinson would be against it as part of the "national LAb" desgination she wants for the space station. So who looses out and do they get a gain? Johnson is the main looser as IIRC they do the effects of long duration spaceflight research, but they do gain a lot in other programs. Science programs gained but also lost? I just do not see it. Maybe its congrees talk for gains when there really wasn't much of one. With the talk of troubles with the JWST that may be a casulty. Which long term i don't mind too much as if we get cheaper launch capibilities, we may still have it up with a small delay and at full compacity at same or lower cost.
