President Bill Clinton (1993). Letter of June 16, 1993 to William H. Natcher, Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations. Archived at Fermilab’s High Energy Physics Information Center. In part, the text reads “As your Committee considers the Energy and Water Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1994, I want you to know of my continuing support for the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC). ... Abandoning the SSC at this point would signal that the United States is compromising its position of leadership in basic science - a position unquestioned for generations. These are tough economic times, yet our Administration supports this project as a part of its broad investment package in science and technology. ... I ask you to support this important and challenging effort.”
Guess I missed this one the first time around - I probably should look at “sell by” date.
