President Ronald Reagan vetoed a NASA authorization bill on the grounds that the bill's attempt to create a National Space Council (NSC) interfered with Presidential decision-making power. Establishment of the NSC, he said, would duplicate other interagencies while creating "unacceptable interference with my discretion and flexibility." The move did not affect NASA's budget.
