Create a provisional institute or council via the National Space Council if Congress stalls, so coordination does not wait on a full statute. Use executive action to convene stakeholders, set priorities, and prepare governance and program design that can later be codified. Treat this as a bridge, since funding and permanence still require legislation.

Why this works

Shows leadership and can at least start the framework (like how the Space Force was first an idea in the Executive Branch before Congress enacted it).
