On April 9, 2009, the White House sent Congress a request for $83.4 billion in supplemental
appropriations for defense, foreign affairs, domestic fire fighting, and some other purposes for the
remainder of FY2009. Of the total, $75.5 billion is for Department of Defense and intelligence
activities related to operations in Iraq and Afghanistan; $3.7 billion, offset by $3.4 billion of
rescissions, is for other defense programs; $7.1 billion is for international affairs; $250 million is
for domestic fire fighting; $137 million is for national security-related programs in the
Department of Energy and the Department of Justice, $2.9 million is for National Security
Council Operations, and $72 million is for the Legislative Branch for Capitol Hill Police radios.
These amounts are being requested in addition to $70 billion in FY2009 supplemental funding for
defense and foreign affairs that Congress approved in June, 2008. In P.L. 110-252 (H.R. 2462),
which was signed into law on June 30, Congress provided a supplemental defense “bridge fund”
of $65.9 billion to cover costs of military operations through the first several months of FY2009
and also appropriated $4.0 billion in emergency supplemental FY2009 funds for foreign affairs.
Amounts for defense in the bridge fund and in the regular FY2009 defense appropriations act,
(P.L. 110-161, H.R. 2764), were expected to be sufficient to finance Army and Marine Corps
operations through about June of this year. In testimony before the House Budget Committee on
March 18, 2009, Defense Department Comptroller Robert Hale urged Congress to approve
supplemental funding before the Memorial Day recess in order to avoid financial disruptions.
The new request, together with the enacted $65.9 billion bridge fund, will bring total
supplemental defense funding for FY2009 to $145 billion. Though this is a substantial amount, it
is significantly less than $170 billion that Congress provided in FY2007 and $187 billion in
FY2008. The decline does not reflect the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq, which has only
begun. Rather, the change is due almost entirely to a reduction in the amount requested for
weapons procurement, which falls from $64 billion in FY2008 to $28 billion in FY2009. A large
part of the decline in procurement, in turn, is due to a substantial cut in acquisition of Mine
Resistant Ambush-Protected (MRAP) vehicles, which were purchased in very large numbers in
FY2008.
In preliminary statements about the defense supplemental, Representative Murtha, the Chairman
of the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, and Senator Inouye, the Chairman of the
Senate panel, both announced plans to add significant amounts to the request for major weapon
systems. Additions that have been mentioned include funding for a new mid-air refueling tanker
for the Air Force, the multi-service F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, Navy F/A-18E/F “Super Hornet”
fighters, one Navy E-2D radar plane, and Army Stryker wheeled armored vehicles. Funds might
also be added to military personnel accounts to cover monthly stipends of up to $500 for service
members prevented from leaving at the end of their enlistments by “stop loss” orders. The
Administration request includes funds for 4 Air Force F-22 fighters, although on April 6,
Secretary of Defense Gates announced plans to end the program. Funding for a new aerial tanker
could be a matter of debate, particularly if the defense subcommittees provide that purchases be
split between the two competing bidders.

On April 9, 2009, the White House formally sent Congress a request for $83.4 billion in
additional FY2009 supplemental appropriations. Of the total, $75.5 billions is for defense and
intelligence activities related to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, $3.7 billion, offset by $3.4
billion of rescissions, is for other defense programs, and $7.1 billion is for international affairs.
Congress provided down payments on FY2009 war-related supplemental funding last year. On
June 30, 2008, the President signed into law, P.L. 110-252, H.R. 2642, a bill providing emergency
supplemental appropriations for FY2008 and FY2009. The bill included $65.9 billion for defense
and $4.0 billion for foreign affairs in FY2009. The DOD funding was mainly for operation and
maintenance accounts, and was intended, together with money in the regular FY2009 defense
appropriations act, to sustain ongoing military operations through the first few months of the
fiscal year.
ȱȱȱŘŖŖşȱȱȱ
The Administration has requested a net total of $83.4 billion in additional supplemental
appropriations for FY2009, comprised of $86.8 billion in new appropriations, offset by $3.4
billion of recessions of previously appropriated funds. Of the total,
• $75.5 billion is for Department of Defense and intelligence activities related to
operations in Iraq and Afghanistan;
• $3.7 billion, offset by rescissions of $3.4 billion, is for other defense activities;
• $7.1 billion is for international affairs;
• $89.5 million is for Department of Energy counter-proliferation programs in
Russia, North Korea, and elsewhere;
• $47 million is for Department of Justice national security related programs,
including $30 million to implement executive orders for shutting down the
Guantanamo Bay prison and for related expenses;
• $2.9 million is for operations of the National Security Council;
• $250 million is for the Forest Service and the Department of the Interior for fire
fighting and rehabilitation of burned areas; and
• $71.9 million is for the Legislative Branch to purchase secure radios for the
Capitol Police.
Together with $65.9 billion that Congress has already provided, if approved by Congress, the new
request for the Department of Defense would bring total supplemental defense funding for
FY2009 to $145 billion, partly offset by $3.4 billion of rescissions.
The $7.1 billion supplemental request for international affairs includes
• $2.3 billion for State Department operations, including

• $273.9 million for Afghanistan Operations;
• $137.6 million for Pakistan Operations;
• $898.7 million for embassy security and construction;
• $836.9 million for international peacekeeping;
• $4.8 billion for foreign assistance programs, including
• $980.0 million for aid to Afghanistan;
• $482.0 million for aid to Iraq;
• $497.0 million for aid to Pakistan;
• $715.0 million for aid to West Bank/Gaza;
• $500.0 million for humanitarian assistance; and
• $448.0 million to developing countries affected by the global financial crisis.
Together with $4.0 billion provided in June 2008, the additional amount requested for foreign
affairs would bring total emergency supplemental appropriations for FY2009 to just over $11
billion. In practice, however, there is often little to distinguish between what is being provided in
the base budget and what has been funded with supplementals. Both regular and supplemental
appropriations have been used to finance State Department operations in Iraq and Afghanistan
and a wide range of foreign aid programs in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Of the $4.0 billion in
FY2009 emergency foreign affairs funding provided in June, 2008, $1.1 billion was for State
Department accounts, of which $550.5 million was for operations in Iraq, and $2.9 billion was for
country foreign aid allocations and international food assistance.
As has been the case for the past couple of years, Congress is under some pressure to act quickly
on the Administration’s supplemental request. In testimony before the House Budget Committee
on March 18, 2009, Defense Department Comptroller Robert Hale urged Congress to approve
supplemental funding before the Memorial Day recess in order to avoid financial disruptions. In
the past two years, congressional action on war-related supplemental funding has taken until the
end of June, and this year’s request has come several weeks later than usual. There is less reason
to expect, however, that this year’s request will encounter similar delays. On the contrary, the
time it took to debate supplemental funding for FY2007 and FY2008 reflected the ongoing debate
about Iraq policy, which appears to have been resolved, at least for the present.
Other debates could arise, however, about a number of issues, including amounts the
appropriations committees may add to the request; whether funds for some elements of the
request should be provided as emergency supplemental appropriations or should be financed in
agency base budgets; funding for the expanded U.S. effort in Afghanistan; and proposals to add
funds for other purposes. Senator Lieberman has said he plans to propose an amendment to add
$550 million for border security.1

With the new FY2009 request added to the $65.9 billion provided last June, total supplemental
defense funding proposed for FY2009 amounts to $145 billion, offset by $3.4 billion of
rescissions. Though Congress may well add to the request, this is substantially less than the
amount of DOD supplemental funding provided in the past two years, which totaled $170 billion
in FY2007 and $187 billion in FY2008. The decline does not reflect the withdrawal of U.S.
forces from Iraq, which has only begun, and which is offset by planned additions to U.S. forces in
Afghanistan. Rather, the change is due almost entirely to a reduction in the amount requested for
weapons procurement, which falls from $65 billion in FY2008 to $28 billion in FY2009. Table 1
shows the new defense request compared to amounts of supplemental defense appropriations in
FY2007 and FY2008.

DOD documents often show Joint IED Defeat Fund amounts as Procurement and other special funds as
Operation and Maintenance. All funding for the Mine Resistant Ambush-Protected (MRAP) vehicle fund is shown
as Procurement.

The decline in procurement, in turn, is due in large part to a substantial reduction in acquisition of
Mine Resistant Ambush-Protected (MRAP) vehicles, which were purchased in very large
numbers in FY2007 and FY2008. MRAP funding in FY2008 totaled $16.8 billion.2 Congress
provided $1.7 billion for MRAPs in FY2009 in the June 2008 supplemental appropriations act. In
the new supplemental request, the Defense Department is asking for $2.7 billion more, for a total
of $4.4 billion in FY2009, $12.4 billion less than in FY2008.
ȱȱȱȱŘŖŖşȱȱȱ
In addition, the FY2009 total includes substantially less than in FY2007 and FY2008 for what the
Defense Department refers to as “reconstitution” of the force, much of which is funded in
procurement accounts. DOD breaks down reconstitution into three elements:
• “Replenishment” of stocks, mainly of ammunition and missiles, consumed in
military operations and in training for deployment;
• “Replacement” of equipment lost in battle or used to a point at which repair is
uneconomical – in practice a substantial amount of new equipment has been
purchased not only to replace losses, but also to upgrade capabilities; and
• “Repair” of equipment both in theater and at domestic depots, including
overhaul of equipment at the end of an operation to a meet standards for the
requirements of deploying units.
Table 2 shows the Defense Department’s breakdown of FY2007, FY2008, and FY2009
funding by functional category, which shows amounts for replenishment and for other
elements of supplemental funding. Total funding for replenishment, by DOD’s
accounting, goes from $36.3 billion in FY2007, to $50.4 billion in FY2008, to $23.2
billion in FY2009. Funding for force protection, which includes amounts for MRAPs,
goes from $12.4 billion in FY2007 and $23.9 billion in FY2008 to $14.3 billion in
FY2009. Funding for Iraqi security forces declines from $5.5 billion in FY2007 and $3.0
billion in FY2008 to $1.0 billion in FY2009.
2 For MRAPs, $5.2 billion was provided as emergency appropriations in the first FY2008 Continuing Resolution, P.L.
110-92, enacted on September 29, 2007, and $11.63 billion was provided as emergency appropriations in a general
provision of the regular FY2008 defense appropriations act, P.L. 110-116, enacted on November 13, 2007.

Some controversial issues may arise. In preliminary discussions of the defense supplemental
Representative Murtha, the Chairman of the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, and
Senator Inouye, the Chairman of the Senate panel, both announced plans to add significant
amounts to the request for several major weapon systems. Additions they and others have
mentioned include funding for a new mid-air refueling tanker for the Air Force, the multi-service
F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, the Navy F/A-18E/F multirole fighter, the Navy E-2D radar plane, and
Army Stryker wheeled armored vehicles. Funds might also be added to military personnel
accounts to cover monthly stipends of up to $500 for service members prevented from leaving at
the end of their enlistments by “stop loss” orders. Representative Murtha reportedly said that he
might propose adding as much as $16-18 billion to the request.3
The Administration included funds for four Air Force F-22 fighter aircraft in the supplemental
request, which may be a matter of some debate because Secretary of Defense Gates has
announced plans to terminate the program. Funding for the aerial tanker program could be
contentious, particularly because of disagreements in Congress about proposals to require that
purchases be split between competing bidders. The Air Force is preparing to recompete the
contract, with bids expected from Boeing and a team of Northrop Grumman and EADS. The
Northrop Grumman-EADS team won a competition last year only to have the award overturned
by the Comptroller General after Boeing appealed. Several Members of Congress have urged
splitting the contract between both bidders, but the Air Force and other legislators argue that a
split will increase costs significantly.
There have been some proposals to add funding for other programs to the supplemental
appropriations bill. Senator Lieberman has reportedly said he plans to propose an amendment to
add $550 million for border security.4
ŘŖŖşȱ ȱȱȱȱ
The President requested $7.1 billion in FY2009 supplemental funds for the Department of State
and USAID. The supplemental request for the Department of State totals $2.3 billion, of which
$594.3 million is for Diplomatic and Consular Programs (D&CP) for Iraq, Afghanistan, and
Pakistan; $898.7 million for Embassy Security, Construction and Maintenance’s (ESCM)
improved, secure facilities in Afghanistan and Pakistan in order to accommodate the civilian
surge proposal; $7.2 million for the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction
(SIGAR); and $836.9 million for the Contributions to International Peacekeeping Account
(CIPA).
As the U.S. government continues to turn over responsibilities to the Government of Iraq, about
40% of the D&CP account for Iraq ($150 million) will go to pay for anticipated lease costs for
facilities that have been occupied by the United States at no cost previously. Approximately 85%
of the requested D&CP funds for Afghanistan ($261.5 million) is to accommodate the civilian
staffing surge proposal by the State Department and other federal agencies to complement

increased military operations in Afghanistan. In Pakistan, while funding is provided for increased
U.S. staffing at the Embassy in Kabul, approximately 85% of the requested funding ($36.5
million) will be applied to increased public diplomacy initiatives in that country.
The total proposed FY2009 supplemental for USAID is $4.8 billion. The overall emphasis of the
request includes: supporting key frontline states – Afghanistan ($980.0 million), Pakistan ($497.0
million), and Iraq ($482.0 million); aid for urgent global needs – migration and refugee assistance
($293.0 million), P.L. 480 title II food aid ($300.0 million), international disaster assistance
($200.0 million), and aid to developing countries affected by the global financial crisis ($448.0
million). Regional priorities include: North Korea, support of phase III of the six party talks
($142.0 million); support to stabilize Georgia ($243.0 million); West Bank and Gaza ($715.0
million); and the Mérida program in Mexico ($66.0 million) to buy 3 Blackhawk helicopters.
Reflecting the Obama Administration’s focus on the war in Afghanistan and a new counter-
insurgency strategy that raises the profile of non-military methods, the FY2009 supplemental
request would significantly increase economic aid efforts in both Afghanistan and Pakistan
provided under the 150 account, State, Foreign Operations appropriations portion of the proposed
legislation. If the requested level is approved, total FY2009 non-humanitarian economic aid to
Afghanistan would amount to $2.6 billion, an increase of 32% ($631 million) over the previous
year’s appropriations. The newly requested funding for Afghanistan, totaling $980 million, is
within three accounts — $839 million in the Economic Support Fund (ESF), $129 million in the
International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement (INCLE) account, and $12 million in the
Non-proliferation, Anti-terrorism, Demining, and Related programs (NADR) account. More than
a third of the new funding request is devoted to improving governance at all levels of the Afghan
government, including anti-corruption measures and other efforts to strengthen the justice system.
If the new request is approved, total FY2009 aid to Pakistan, at $1.5 billion, would be double the
level of FY2008. The FY2009 supplemental request is $497 million — $429.5 million in ESF,
$65.5 million in INCLE, and $2 million in NADR funds. Its emphasis is almost entirely devoted
to supporting Pakistan’s economic growth and stability, supplementing that government’s IMF
Standby Agreement with possible programs to strengthen its social safety net and provide budget
support.
