ASME Gov Relations

@ASMEdotorg appreciates the opportunity to contribute to @NASA’s Civil Space Shortfalls initiative and help shape priorities supporting a sustainable future for human exploration. Engineers play a critical role in enabling the Moon-to-Mars mission and advancing U.S. space leadership. 🚀

@ASMEdotorg applauds @HouseAppropsGOP @AppropsDems @AppropsGOP @SenateApprops for advancing full-year FY26 appropriations that sustain U.S. leadership in science, engineering, and innovation. Continued investments in NSF, DOE, NIST, and NASA strengthen advanced manufacturing, energy technologies, and the engineering workforce critical to our nation’s competitiveness. asme.org/government-rel…

Thank you to @SenBillCassidy, @BernieSanders, and the @HELPCmteDems @GOPHELP for the opportunity to submit responses concerning the Request for Information on "Informing Parents and Policymakers Through School-Level Academic Growth Indicators" We look forward to working together in the future! help.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…

Join Us!! @ASMEdotorg is hosting a virtual Fusion Energy Devices Codes and Standards Committee meeting TODAY and TOMORROW! These meetings are open to the public and welcome input from fusion developers, regulators, researchers, and other fusion stakeholders! Find the zoom link in the PDF!

The Transient Reactor Test Facility (TREAT) continues to play a critical role in advancing nuclear safety, fuels research, and reactor performance—providing unique transient testing capabilities that strengthen U.S. nuclear leadership. 👏 Kudos to the @GovNuclear for supporting cutting-edge research that underpins the future of clean, reliable nuclear energy. #NuclearEnergy #TREAT #Innovation #CleanEnergy #DOE
