The Houston-area lawmaker has pushed for improved weather forecasting and energy security. He also wants to send humans to the moon and Mars.
The article from E&E News discusses the appointment of Rep. Brian Babin (R-Texas) as the new chair of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee. Babin, who has been a member of the committee since 2015, replaces Rep. Frank Lucas (R-Okla.) in this role. Known for his skepticism towards climate change, Babin has previously supported legislation aimed at reducing regulations on energy production and has questioned the validity of climate science. His leadership is expected to steer the committee towards policies that favor fossil fuel industries and could potentially challenge or alter the focus on climate-related research and initiatives. The article also mentions that under his leadership, the committee might explore topics like UFOs, reflecting Babin's interest in unconventional subjects. This appointment signals a potential shift in the committee's priorities, aligning more closely with conservative viewpoints on energy and environmental issues.
