The House-reported FY2027 THUD bill states: "For necessary expenses related to Railroad Crossing Elimination Grants ... $100,000,000, to remain available until expended."

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): No new official enactment or higher funding action was found in the Aug. 14-16, 2026 lookback. The latest official House-reported FY2027 THUD text would provide $100 million for Railroad Crossing Elimination Grants, well below the $500 million commitment and not yet final law.

Moulton's official transportation issue page lists a March 27, 2026 press release: "Moulton, McBride Lead Bipartisan Group of Colleagues Urging Full Funding for Amtrak and Passenger Rail in FY27," saying Moulton led a bipartisan letter urging FY2027 full funding at IIJA-authorized levels.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Moulton took concrete advocacy action in the relevant term by leading a bipartisan FY2027 passenger-rail funding letter, but that advocacy has not produced a $500 million FY2027 Railroad Crossing Elimination appropriation as of Aug. 16, 2026.

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. same_term A for effort

As of August 16, 2026, the FY2027 appropriation is not final law, and the latest House-reported THUD bill funds Railroad Crossing Elimination Grants at $100 million, below the promised $500 million. Moulton appears to have materially advocated for full FY2027 passenger-rail funding during the same congressional term, so the effort badge is warranted, but the promised funding level has not yet been enacted. Because FY2027 appropriations remain pending rather than finally rejected, the outcome is unresolved rather than never.
