Article on NASA's budget where SpaceX funding is included:
NASA 2015 Budget: $17.5 Billion Proposal Focuses On Asteroids, ISS, Mars And Space Exploration
"NASA has proposed a $848 million for Commercial Spaceflight. According to NASA, the space agency is working with the Boeing Company, SpaceX and and Sierra Nevada Corporation as part of the Commercial Crew Program. NASA hopes to bring human spaceflight launches, such as ISS shuttle mission, back to the United States by 2017. Part of the Commercial Spaceflight budget will also go to ISS cargo resupply mission contracts with SpaceX and Orbital Sciences."
The interesting thing about this is the fact that the shared $848 million is one of the smallest amount in the entire budget. $2.784 billion is going to the SLS and the Orion crew vehicle. SpaceX will have the SLS beat with the Falcon Heavy and will beat the Orion with the Dragon Crewed Version. More is better but it is obvious the advantage that SpaceX has over NASA itself.
