President [[Bill Clinton]] advocated [[nanotechnology]] development. In a 21 January 2000 speech [http://pr.caltech.edu/events/presidential_speech/] at the [[California Institute of Technology]], Clinton stated that "Some of our research goals may take twenty or more years to achieve, but that is precisely why there is an important role for the federal government."

President [[George W. Bush]] further increased funding for nanotechnology.  On 3 December 2003 Bush [[signed into law]] the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act ({{USPL|108|153}}), which authorizes expenditures for five of the participating agencies totaling $3.63 billion over four years.[https://web.archive.org/web/20070927072326/http://www.nano.gov/html/res/Sen.AllenNational_Nanotechnology_Initiative_Conference_4.1.04.htm].  This law is an [[authorization]], not an [[Appropriation (law)|appropriation]], and subsequent appropriations for these five agencies have not met the goals set out in the 2003 Act. However, there are many agencies involved in the Initiative that are not covered by the Act, and requested budgets under the Initiative for all participating agencies in Fiscal Years 2006 – 2015 totaled over $1 billion each.

In February 2014, the National Nanotechnology Initiative released a Strategic Plan outlining updated goals and "program component areas" [http://nano.gov/sites/default/files/pub_resource/2014_nni_strategic_plan.pdf]," as required under the terms of the Act. This document supersedes the NNI Strategic Plans released in 2004 and 2007.
