SEC. . SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS.

(a) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that a minimum of $140 million should be set aside for an advanced technology program that supports industry-led research and development of cutting-edge high risk technology with broad commercial potential and societal benefits. Such programs have been funded at this level by the Senate in the past and it is the sense of the Senate that these types of programs should continue to be funded.
