Latest Action · June 24, 2026
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.
The Space Ready 2.0 Act authorizes NASA to run a pilot program allowing private companies and other entities to voluntarily contribute funds toward repairing, maintaining, and improving infrastructure at NASA Centers. Under this program, NASA can enter into agreements with commercial partners who use these facilities to share the costs of capital projects, with NASA establishing clear cost estimates upfront and providing final accounting at project completion. Any contributed funds that go unused must be returned to the contributing entity within 90 days of project completion, and companies cannot be denied leases or other agreements based on their unwillingness to contribute to infrastructure projects. The program includes oversight requirements, with NASA submitting annual reports to Congress detailing spending and interim updates every two years, and the authority to collect voluntary contributions expires on December 31, 2031. This legislation does not provide new federal funding but rather creates a mechanism for NASA and its commercial partners to jointly finance infrastructure improvements at agency facilities.
