Rep. Judy Chu and Don Bacon said they "will continue working on a bipartisan basis to ensure NASA receives the full, sustained funding it needs to lead the world in discovery and exploration," while responding to the FY27 request that proposed cutting NASA’s overall budget by 23% and NASA Science by 47%.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Chu publicly reaffirmed the NASA-funding commitment in response to proposed FY27 cuts, but this is advocacy rather than completed funding action.

Public Law 119-74 enacted FY2026 NASA appropriations, including $7.25 billion for Science, $935 million for Aeronautics, $920.5 million for Space Technology, $7.783 billion for Exploration, $4.175 billion for Space Operations, $143 million for STEM Engagement, $3.0 billion for Safety, Security and Mission Services, and $185.336 million for Construction and Environmental Compliance and Restoration.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Congress did enact a full-year NASA appropriation in January 2026, which is a concrete bipartisan funding result, but it does not by itself prove sustained FY2027 funding or resolve the broader ongoing promise.

"Such amounts as may be necessary, at a rate for operations as provided in the applicable appropriations Acts for fiscal year 2026 and under the authority and conditions provided in such Acts, for continuing projects or activities ... The Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2026"

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The enrolled FY2027 continuing appropriations bill temporarily continued FY2026 Commerce-Justice-Science funding, the appropriations category that funds NASA. This is a concrete funding continuation, but not proof of full or sustained FY2027 NASA funding.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Chu voted yes on H.R. 6500, which passed the House with large bipartisan support. That documents direct action toward temporary federal funding, but only a stopgap result rather than full, sustained NASA funding.

Last Updated: September 21, 2026 FY 2027 Continuing Resolution, through December 11, 2026 (Appropriations) | --Advanced Action | H.R.6500 | (Advanced Action) | P.L.119-103 Commerce, Justice, and Science, FY 2027 (Appropriations) | -- | H.R.8845 | | --

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): In the lookback window, the Senate's current legislation page showed the FY2027 continuing resolution enacted as P.L. 119-103, while the regular FY2027 Commerce-Justice-Science bill that funds NASA remained H.R. 8845 with no public-law entry. That supports partial delivery through temporary funding, not full sustained FY2027 NASA appropriations.

The bill includes funding for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), to support the critical Artemis program and continued American leadership in space. National Aeronautics and Space Administration.—The bill sustains the fiscal year 2026 enacted level of funding for NASA of $24,438,336,000

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The House Appropriations Committee report for the FY2027 CJS bill proposed sustaining NASA's overall FY2026 funding level, a concrete appropriations effort aligned with the promise. Because the bill had not become the full-year FY2027 NASA funding law as of the lookback check, this remains unresolved beyond the temporary CR.

Chu publicly and repeatedly advocated for NASA funding, and Congress enacted FY2026 NASA appropriations during her term, which is a concrete bipartisan funding result. But the promise was broader than one appropriation: it aimed at full, sustained NASA funding, and the record here does not show that long-term level of funding was secured, so this is partial rather than fully delivered.
