(KSL News) The U.S. Senate will debate a bill today that could bring big money to Utah universities and Hill Air Force Base.
As it reads right now, the 2006 Defense Appropriations bill would send 91 million dollars to Utah.
Here's some of the breakdown:
30 million dollars would go to Hill Air Force Base. 10 and a half million would go to Utah State University, Brigham Young University, and the U of U, for defense related research. ATK Thiokol would get 12 million dollars to design and test an intermediate range Ballistic Missile. And three-point-five-million would be for research of hybrid-electric Army vehicles.
