Her nomination was held hostage by an anti-Cuba cabal led by Sen Menendez (D-NJ) and the Miami exiles who were protesting a slight relaxation in Cuba relations in the omnibus budget bill. The Barack Obama carefully avoided making that connection--presumably to protect that cabal.
OSU's Lubchenco confirmed as head of NOAA
by The Associated Press The Oregonian March 20, 2009 http://www.oregonlive.com/environment/index.ssf/2009/03/osus_lubchenco_confirmed_as_he.html Oregon State University marine biologist Jane Lubchenco has been confirmed as the new undersecretary of the U.S. Commerce Department for oceans and
atmosphere. The Thursday vote by the U.S. Senate makes her the first woman in charge of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which overseas fisheries, oceans and the National Weather Service. Echoing President Obama's recent remarks on federal funding for stem cell research, Lubchenco says that science, not politics, will guide the agency as it confronts global warming, declining fisheries and forecasting natural disasters. She says she expects her agency to also play a role developing a green
economy, especially in coastal areas. update submitted by Michael Munk at www.michaelmunk.com
