The funding of the CSB is definitely not a "done deal". At this point, its funding has been included in the House Budget Committee's proposed appropriations. If one appreciates that the House Budget Committee Chair is Rodney Freylinghuysen of New Jersey, and that a bipartisan majority of the New Jersey House of Representatives members supported CSB funding, this outcome is not surprising. However, so far I have not seen any "champion" for the CSB in the Senate. So at best continued funding of the CSB is still a work in progress.
