(Cocoa, FL) – TOMORROW, Friday, April 9, from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m., Congresswoman Suzanne Kosmas (FL-24) will participate in the Florida Today Space Forum at the Simpkins Fine Arts Center on the Brevard Community College Cocoa campus. Kosmas, along with Congressman Bill Posey (FL-15), will answer questions on the future of the space industry in Florida and its impact on Space Coast communities. Matt Reed of Florida Today will act as moderator.

Congresswoman Kosmas has worked tirelessly to support the space industry in Florida. She recently introduced the Human Spaceflight Capability Assurance and Protection Act, legislation to maintain a robust human spaceflight program, minimize the spaceflight gap, and protect Space Coast jobs. The bill would extend use of the International Space Station (ISS) through 2020, allow NASA to continue flying the Space Shuttle, and push to accelerate a next-generation NASA-developed space vehicle.
