attract capital excluded large nature program requires research retain simply sums venture
High-tech and biotech firms that effectively attract and retain venture capital should not be excluded from the SBIR program simply because the nature of their research requires large sums of investment.

The abuses and failures we've seen in Iraq; we don't want to duplicate those here at home,
