Space shuttle Discovery fight continues as Texas senators rope Department of Justice into their tug-of-war with Smithsonian

The space shuttle Discovery, a white and black shuttle is on display at the Smithsonian Museum where people walk around it and view it.

A new front has opened in the battle over space shuttle Discovery, and the fight has made its way to the Justice Department.

The two Texas Senators trying to mandate the relocation of Discovery from the Smithsonian Institution's Udvar-Hazy Center in Virginia to Texas, John Cornyn and Ted Cruz, and joined by Texas Representative Randy Weber, are urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate the Smithsonian for violations of the Anti Lobbying Act.
