Since the PROSWIFT Act was enacted in October 2020, the SWORM has been working to align government activities to support its implementation. Many of the goals and objectives of the National Space Weather Strategy and Action Plan are now backed by the authority of the PROSWIFT Act. Key areas include expanded ground and space-based observing networks, improved space weather modeling, new capabilities to improve Research to Operations and Operations to Research effectiveness.

In May 2021, the space weather community welcomed Ms. Ezinne Uzo-Okoro as the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Assistant Director for Space Policy and the new OSTP Co-Chair for SWORM. Ms. Uzo-Okuro is serving on detail from NASA where she had been a Program Executive.
