Evidence
Austin Scott's office posted the FY27 appropriations request portal with a Community Project Funding form and listed submission deadlines of March 6 and March 13, 2026. The page also notes that submitting a request does not guarantee selection.
Assessments
The claim is specifically about requesting federal funding for the Georgia Public Safety Training Center Firearms Training Unit in the FY2027 cycle. The only evidence shows that Rep. Austin Scott's office opened its FY2027 appropriations request process and invited Community Project Funding submissions, while explicitly warning that submission does not guarantee selection. That establishes a general mechanism for requests, but it does not show that Scott actually submitted, sponsored, or advanced this particular project request. Because the record here does not confirm the specific request was made or acted on, the promise cannot be scored as delivered or never on the current evidence.
