House Passes Final America COMPETES Act as Part of Innovation Agenda
August 2nd, 2007 by Jesse Lee

The House has just passed the final House-Senate agreement on the America COMPETES Act, H.R. 2272 by a vote of 367-57. This legislation is the culmination of a year and a half-long, bipartisan effort to pass an Innovation Agenda that boldly responds to the global economic challenges identified in the 2005 National Academies report, Rising above the Gathering Storm. It ensures American students, teachers, businesses, and workers are prepared to continue leading the world in innovation, research, and technology well into the future.
