 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration should rescind the Distinguished Service Medal awarded to Arthur Rudolph in 1969 (with such recission to be based in part on such person's renouncing U.S. citizenship and returning to West Germany rather than facing deportation charges stemming from allegations of war crimes brought by the Department of Justice).
