This funding supports the Laboratory\u2019s mission and partnerships with the U.S. Department of Energy, the national laboratories, and the other research institutions across the country.\u00a0 Thanks to this support, this Laboratory builds on a history of innovation that provides a singular environment within a technologically sophisticated scientific community that is internationally recognized, is a vital component to our national and economic security, and enables us to be at the forefront of efforts to explore nuclear fusion as a source of clean energy for the future.\u00a0 With around 1000 individuals involved in the Laboratory\u2019s programs, continued investment in the Laboratory for Laser Energetics preserves its status as a unique national resource for research and education in science and technology and a major driver of New York\u2019s high-tech economy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Seligman issued a statement in response to the fiscal year 2015 Omnibus Appropriations bill released by the House of Representatives Appropriations Committee on Dec. 9.
