Granted, this has next to no chance passing in a House dominated by soi-disant "Christians" like Bachmann or Shimkus, but it's a nice way of tweaking anti-science zealots in Congress and recognizing the importance of a central figure in the history of biology at the same time:
Stark told the San Jose Mercury (February 11, 2011) that he was "just trying to get people to understand that we're trying to get our kids to be scientists, were pushing for green jobs and green development, and you can't stick your head in the sand and not recognize that we're in a modern age. To get there, it seems to me, we have to understand that science is all part of what we're doing."
