State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Summary
The annual State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs appropriations bill has been the
primary legislative vehicle through which Congress reviews the U.S. international affairs budget
and influences executive branch foreign policy making in recent years, as Congress has not
regularly considered these issues through a complete authorization process for State Department
diplomatic activities since 2003 and for foreign aid programs since 1985. Funding for Foreign
Operations and State Department/Broadcasting programs has been steadily rising since FY2002,
after a period of decline in the 1980s and 1990s. Ongoing assistance to Iraq and Afghanistan, as
well as large new global health programs and rapidly increasing assistance to Pakistan, has kept
the international affairs budget at historically high levels in recent years. The change of
Administration in 2009 did not disrupt this trend. However, increasing concern about the federal
budget deficit and accountability for funds already provided may check this growth in FY2011.
On February 1, 2010, President Obama submitted a budget proposal for FY2011 that requested
$58.68 billion for the international affairs budget, a 3% increase over the enacted FY2010
funding level, including supplementals. If $1.8 billion in “forward funding” of FY2010 priorities
appropriated in FY2009 supplemental legislation is counted toward FY2010 rather than FY2009
totals, as it was by the Administration, and the enacted FY2010 supplemental is factored in, the
FY2011 request would represent a slight decrease from FY2010-enacted levels.
This report focuses only on the $56.82 billion requested for programs and activities funded
through the State-Foreign Operations appropriations bill, which excludes some portions of the
International Affairs request and includes funding for certain commissions requested as part of
other budget functions. The Administration requested significant increases for Global Health and
Child Survival, Development Assistance, technical assistance and debt restructuring through the
Treasury Department, Foreign Military Financing, and various multilateral environmental
accounts. Programs for which the Administration recommended significantly reduced funding,
compared with enacted FY2010 levels, are contributions to international organizations,
commissions and foundations, and peacekeeping operations.
In the absence of a FY2011 budget resolution, both the House and Senate worked on FY2011
funding legislation using committee-approved discretionary budget allocations. The State-Foreign
Operations Subcommittee was allocated $53.9 billion in the House and $54.0 billion in the
Senate. The House State-Foreign Operations Appropriations Subcommittee approved a draft
FY2011 bill on June 30, which totaled $52.81 billion. On the Senate side, the full Appropriations
Committee marked up and approved its FY2011 State-Foreign Operations bill, S. 3676, on July
27, totaling $54.22 billion.
This report analyzes the FY2011 request, recent-year funding trends, and congressional action
related to FY2011 State-Foreign Operations legislation. The report will be updated to reflect
changes in legislative status.

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Continuing Resolution
In March 2011, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before House and Senate foreign
policy committees. In her testimony she asserted, as she said Secretary of Defense Robert Gates,
Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Admiral Mullen, and General Petraeus also have, that proposed
FY2011 budget cuts for State-Foreign Operations funding “would be devastating to our national
security.” At issue is whether the State-Foreign Operations budget is considered to be security-
related spending and excluded from severe funding cuts ( a position generally supported by
Democrats) or non-security-related spending considered fair game for budget cuts (a position
generally supported by the Republicans). (For account-by account current and proposed funding
levels, see Appendix C and Appendix D.)
Congress has passed a series of continuing resolutions (CRs) to fund government programs. The
first, from September 30, 2010, through December 21, 2010, was P.L. 111-242, as amended.
Another CR was approved by the House and Senate on December 21 to fund government
programs through March 4, 2011 (H.R. 3082; P.L. 111-322).The most recent continuing
resolution, Additional Continuing Appropriations Amendments, 2011 (H.J.Res. 48/P.L. 112-6),
was signed on March 18, 2011. It continues State-Foreign Operations funding at the previous CR
level (P.L. 111-322) through April 8, 2011.
The CRs continue funding most State Department and Foreign Operations programs at the
FY2010-enacted level, with some exceptions. State Department Diplomatic and Consular Affairs
programs are funded at an annual rate of $8.6 billion, consistent with FY2010 levels without the
FY2010 supplemental. The Foreign Military Finance account is funded under the CR at a rate of
$5.16 billion, an increase over the FY2010 level. Of this amount, at least $2.78 billion is for
grants to Israel, $1.30 billion is for grants for Egypt, and $300.0 million is for aid to Jordan. In
addition, the Pakistan Counterinsurgency Capability Fund is funded under the CR at a rate of
$700 million. The legislation also extends the authorization of several programs, such as the
passport fee retention program, that would otherwise expire at the end of FY2010.
Past Year Developments
On February 14, 2011, President Obama submitted his FY2012 budget request to Congress.
Secretary of State Clinton testified before the House and Senate foreign policy committees in
early March. Congress continues to work on funding for FY2011 as it begins work on the
FY2012 budget.
On February 1, 2010, the Obama Administration had submitted its FY2011 budget request to
Congress, together with a request for supplemental FY2010 funding for foreign operations
activities. Later that month, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the House Foreign
Affairs Committee and Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and before each chamber’s State-
Foreign Operations Appropriations Subcommittee. Hearings on aspects of the international affairs
budget request were held throughout March and April.
On April 22, 2010, the Senate Budget Committee passed a budget resolution recommending $4
billion less than the Administration requested for the International Affairs account, prompting
Congressional Research Service
1

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

strong objections by foreign aid advocates, including a letter signed by all living former
Secretaries of State urging Congress to fully fund the Administration’s request.1
On July 15 and July 20, 2010, respectively, the Senate and House approved FY2011 discretionary
funding allocations for each appropriations subcommittee, enabling work on appropriations
legislation to move forward in the absence of a budget resolution. For State and Foreign
Operations, the House allocation is $53.9 billion and the Senate allocation is $54.0 billion.
On July 29, 2010, the President signed into law (P.L. 111-212) the FY2010 supplemental, which
provides about $6.1 billion to the Department of State and Foreign Operations funding, largely
for State Department operations and foreign aid to Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, and Haiti.

House Legislation
On June 30, the House State-Foreign Operations Appropriations Subcommittee marked up and
approved, by voice vote, a draft FY2011 funding bill. The as yet unnumbered measure would
provide $52.81 billion, $4 billion less than the Obama Administration request and $2.3 billion
less than the enacted FY2010 funding level. While funding tables from the draft have been made
available, the text has not. Funding levels by account can be found in Appendix C and Appendix
D
. A press release2 from the subcommittee following the bill’s passage highlighted, among others,
that the bill—
• Does not allocate the $3.9 billion requested by the Administration for
Afghanistan, in keeping with Chairwoman Lowey’s June 28 statement that the
subcommittee would not appropriate funds to Afghanistan until recent reports of
aid being diverted out of the country by corrupt officials have been adequately
investigated.3 The subcommittee has requested that GAO audit all U.S. assistance
to Afghanistan for FY2008-FY2010, and included funds in the bill for a Special
Inspector General for Afghan Reconstruction to establish a task force on
corruption.
• For Pakistan, recommends $2.51 billion in assistance.
• For Iraq, includes $351 million to support the transition of security forces
training from military to civilian management.
• Fully funds commitments to Israel, Egypt, and Jordan.

• Recommends $735 million, or $20 million more than requested, for family
planning services, but does not change any provisions of law restricting funds to
organizations that provide abortions or advocate for abortion rights.
• Provides $825 million for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and
Malaria, which is $125 million above the Administration request.
• Includes $1 billion for food security and agricultural development, or 38% less
than the Administration request.
• Recommends $1.34 billion for bilateral and multilateral activities to protect the
environment and address global climate change.
• Recommends $925 million for basic education programs, with an emphasis on
providing alternatives to madrassas, which is almost 10% more than requested.
• Matches the Administrations request of $446.2 million for the Peace Corps,
which is a 12% increase over the FY2010 funding.
Senate Legislation
On July 27, the Senate Appropriations Committee marked up and approved a FY2011 State-
Foreign Operations funding bill, S. 3676.4 The legislation would appropriate $54.22 billion,
which is $1.40 billion less than the House subcommittee draft and $2.61 billion below the
Administration’s request. Of the total provided for State operations, 18.7% is for Afghanistan,
Pakistan, and Iraq. Of the total provided for foreign operations, 15.3% is for those three countries.
Funding levels by account can be found in Appendix C and Appendix D. The bill5—
• For Afghanistan, provides $2.6 billion in assistance, more than $1.2 billion below
the requested amount, and $660 million for State Department operations.
• For Pakistan, provides $2.48 billion in assistance, which is $546 million below
the Administration’s request, as well as $92.6 million for State Department
operations.
• For Iraq, provides $1.6 billion for State Department operations and $529 million
for assistance, or $183 million less than requested.
• Provides the amounts requested for Israel, Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon.
• For Colombia, provides $447 million, or $17.9 million less than requested.
• Notes lack of authorization for State to retained consular fees, and increases
appropriations above the request, while also suggesting the use of unobligated
funds, to meet funding requests for Diplomatic & Consular Programs, Embassy
Construction & Maintenance, and Worldwide Security Protection accounts that
the Administration proposed to meet through fee retention.
• For State’s Civilian Stabilization Initiative (CSI), recommends $50.0 million,
which is more than a 50%, or $70 million, reduction from FY2010 levels. It calls

for a reduced number of Active and Standby personnel and questions State’s
ability to deploy the proposed number of personnel. It provides no CSI funds for
USAID.
• Proposes to maintain current funding levels for the Asia Foundation and
$100,000 more than FY2010 level for the East-West Center.
• Proposes to increase National Endowment for Democracy (NED) funding from
$118.0 million to $125.0 million, which is $20 million above the Administration
request. Some funds are to be provided for NED programs in Egypt, North
Korea, Cuba, Pakistan, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo by
transferring democracy funds from the Economic Support Fund account to NED.
• Provides $110 million for the Democracy Fund, which was not included in the
Administration’s budget. Many democracy assistance programs were requested
by the Administration under the Economic Support Fund account, however, for
which the committee recommended $655 million less than was requested.
• Provides $14.4 million within the Diplomatic and Consular Programs account to
establish up to 10 new American Centers to improve public diplomacy efforts.
• Recommends continuing the FY2010 level ($1.105 billion) for the Millennium
Challenge Corporation, which is $147.7 million below the President’s request of
$1.280 billion.
• Provides $800 million for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and
Malaria, which is $100 million above the Administration request.
• For bilateral and multilateral climate change programs funded through USAID,
State and Treasury, provides $1.45 billion, which is $130 million above the
FY2010 level but slightly below the request.
• Provides $1.3 billion, or $344 million less than requested, for food security and
agriculture development programs under the Feed the Future initiative.
• Recommends $700 million for family planning programs. The bill also contains
language that reverses the Mexico City policy that bans U.S. foreign assistance to
any country or organization that performs or promotes abortion. The language
allows aid for countries or organizations unless the President certifies those
recipients would use U.S. aid for promoting or performing abortions.

Background and Trends
U.S. national security, commercial, and humanitarian interests are the rationale for most
international affairs activities. During the cold war, foreign aid and diplomatic programs had a
primarily anti-communist focus, while concurrently pursuing other U.S. policy interests, such as
promoting economic development, advancing U.S. trade, expanding access to basic education and
health care, promoting human rights, and protecting the environment. In the 1990s, with the cold
war ended, distinct policy objectives—including stopping nuclear weapons proliferation, curbing
the production and trafficking of illegal drugs, expanding peace efforts in the Middle East,
achieving regional stability, protecting religious freedom, and countering trafficking in persons—
replaced the cold war-shaped foreign policy objectives.
A defining change in focus came following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the United
States. Since then, U.S. foreign aid and diplomatic programs have emphasized national security
objectives, frequently cast in terms of contributing to efforts to counter terrorism. In 2002,
President Bush released a National Security Strategy that for the first time established global
development as the third pillar of U.S. national security, along with defense and diplomacy.
Development was again underscored in the Administration’s re-statement of the National Security
Strategy released on March 16, 2006.
Also in 2002, foreign assistance budget justifications began to highlight the war on terrorism as
the top foreign aid priority, emphasizing U.S. assistance to 28 “front-line” states—countries that
cooperated with the United States in the war on terrorism or faced terrorist threats themselves.6

6 According to the State Department, these “front-line” states in 2002 included Afghanistan, Algeria, Armenia,
Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Colombia, Djibouti, Egypt, Ethiopia, Georgia, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Kazakhstan,
Kenya, Oman, Pakistan, Philippines, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan,

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Large reconstruction programs in Afghanistan and Iraq exemplified the emphasis on using foreign
aid to combat terrorism. State Department efforts focused extensively on diplomatic security and
finding more effective ways of presenting American views and culture through public diplomacy,
particularly in Muslim communities.
The Obama Administration has carried forward many Bush foreign aid initiatives, including
USAID’s Development Leadership Initiative (DLI), the Millennium Challenge Corporation, and
robust assistance to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. The Obama Administration has also largely
sustained Bush Administration investments in global health and HIV/AIDS treatment, though its
Global Health Initiative shifts the emphasis away from a focus on discrete diseases and toward
comprehensive health systems. In the FY2011 request, the Administration further defines its
international priorities, with an emphasis on building State Department and USAID capacity,
supporting multilateral food security and global climate change initiatives, and shifting
responsibility for assistance programs in Iraq and elsewhere from military to civilian authorities.
Use of Supplemental and Forward Funding
Year-to-year comparison of funding levels has become increasingly complicated due to the use of
supplemental appropriations. Supplemental resources for State and Foreign Operations programs,
once used primarily to respond to unanticipated emergencies or natural disasters, became a
significant and continuous source of funds for ongoing international activities during the Bush
Administration, especially for programs related to reconstruction efforts and corresponding to
ongoing military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some criticized this practice, which kept
significant funds separate from the annual budget cycle and made future-year planning difficult.
The Obama Administration requested $6.16 billion in supplemental funds for FY2010 to meet
needs in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, and Haiti. Congress approved $6.18 billion in FY2010
supplemental funds for these and other priorities on July 27.7
Year-to-year comparison has also been complicated by recent use of forward funding
mechanisms, whereby appropriations legislation may provide funding for multiple fiscal years.
One FY2008 supplemental,8 for example, included $3.68 billion within a section titled “Bridge
Fund Supplemental Appropriations for Fiscal Year 2009,” essentially providing a FY2009
supplement before the FY2009 base appropriation was enacted. These funds were clearly
designated as FY2009 funds, to be obligated between October 2008 and September 2009. Less
clear, however, is the appropriate designation for $1.8 billion9 included in an FY2009
supplemental appropriations measure10 that House and Senate appropriators considered forward
funding of priorities identified in the FY2010 request, but which were not clearly designated as

Uzbekistan, and Yemen.
7 P.L. 111-212.
8 P.L. 110-252.
9 The Administration cites $1.8 billion as the forward-funded level in the CBJ, while House appropriators reportedly
count $2.4 billion intended as forward funding. The discrepancy apparently relates to the treatment of the Pakistan
Counterinsurgency Contingency Fund and a portion of Foreign Military Financing funds to Mexico. Until the House
produces legislation for FY2011, clarifying their approach to accounting for these funds, “forward funding” in this
report will refer only to the $1.8 billion detailed in the CBJ.

FY2010 funds in the enacting legislation and accompanying report.11 In the FY2011
Congressional Budget Justification (CBJ), the Administration included these funds in FY2010
account totals in many instances, while the Congressional Budget Office is treating them as
FY2009 appropriations, as does this report.
The inclusion of supplemental funds and the accounting used for forward funds can significantly
affect year-to-year comparisons of appropriations levels. For example, the FY2011 request is
slightly less than the FY2010 total if the FY2010 supplemental and forward funding are included
in the FY2010 column, but represents a 16% increase if the supplemental funds are excluded and
the forward funding is counted in FY2009 rather than FY2010. Figure 2 compares the FY2011
State-Foreign Operations budget request with various representations of FY2010 and FY2009
appropriations.

11 Reports accompanying the House-passed and Senate committee-approved FY2010 State-Foreign Operations
appropriations bills (H.Rept. 111-187 and S.Rept. 111-44, respectively) indicate what each subcommittee considered
forward funding for FY2010. The legislative language was rolled into an omnibus bill; the statement accompanying the
omnibus legislation (H.Rept. 111-366) did not include the forward-funding language, but did note that the reports were
to be used as guidance.

FY2011 Budget Request
On February 1, 2010, the Obama Administration sent its FY2011 international affairs (Function
150 account) budget request to Congress, corresponding to a total of $56.81 billion requested for
the Department of State, foreign operations, and related programs. This represents a 3% increase
from enacted FY2010 funding,12 and 4.5% of the total discretionary budget authority requested by
the Administration for FY2011. Figure 3 provides a breakout of the request by assistance type.

Figure 4 shows the major accounts in the bill in proportion to the whole request, and indicates for
each account whether the requested funding level represents an increase or decrease over the
FY2010-enacted appropriation level. Just five accounts—Diplomatic and Consular Programs,
Economic Support Fund, Global Health and Child Survival, Foreign Military Financing, and
Development Assistance—make up more than 60% of the total funding requested. While the
request for several of these accounts is less than the enacted FY2010 level, such apparent
decreases are the result of significant FY2010 supplemental appropriations being enacted after the
FY2011 request was submitted, and do not necessarily reflect an intention to reduce spending in
those accounts. For example, the Economic Support Fund request was 23% above the enacted
FY2010 level at the time it was submitted, but is 12% below the current enacted level, after
Congress approved $2.5 billion in supplemental funds for that account. For a full listing of funds
requested for State, Foreign Operations and Related Agency accounts, see Appendix C and
Appendix D.

12 If the $1.8 billion in “forward funds” are included in the FY2010 total, rather than FY2009, the FY2011 request
represents a 12% increase over the FY2010-enacted level, or a 4% decrease from the enacted plus requested
supplemental level.

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Key State Department Issues
In reviewing the FY2011 State Department budget request, the following issues stand out as
being Administration priorities or representing significant changes from existing policy or
funding levels.
Support Missions in Iraq and Other Front-Line States
The FY2011 request includes significant funding to support U.S. missions in Iraq, Afghanistan,
and Pakistan, where additional logistics support, security, and information technology are needed
to keep up with increasing staff levels and program responsibilities. The Administration requested
$1.79 billion to support the U.S. mission in Iraq, for the abovementioned purposes as well as
support for Provincial Reconstruction Teams transitioning from military to State management,15
exchange programs, and the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction. The
Administration is requesting $754 million to support 1,500 civilian staff from various agencies in
Afghanistan, and $102 million for operational support of public diplomacy activities in Pakistan.
Growth in Foreign Service Capacity
The Administration is requesting $9.55 billion for Diplomatic & Consular Programs (D&CP) in
FY2011, which would maintain the high funding level reached in FY2010 through a $1.33 billion
supplemental appropriation for the account.16 D&CP funds most State Department salaries and
expenses, and growth in FY2010 and the FY2011 request reflects the Administration’s strategic
plan to increase Foreign Service capacity by 25% over FY2008 levels by FY2014. Secretary of
State Clinton has described the strategy as a means to reduce the State Department’s reliance on
contractors, which she believes will improve accountability and save money in the long term. The
FY2011 request would fund 599 new positions, including 410 foreign service officers and 189
civil service personnel, and expand and improve training in critical languages.
Retention of Consular Fees
The State Department seeks authority in the FY2011 request to retain all passport and consular
fees, some of which are currently retained by the Treasury. The Administration views this as a
mechanism to cover the full cost of consular services more efficiently. Congress, however, has
expressed concern about this new funding mechanism, which would operate outside of the regular
appropriations process and could no longer be used to off-set expenditures in the budgeting
process. If the request is granted, State anticipates an additional $2.59 billion in available fees, a
45% increase over the FY2010 estimate.

15 The Department will be realigning infrastructure in FY2011 by closing 11of the 16 current PRTs . Four of the five
remaining PRTs are co-located with the military with much of the support costs assumed by the military. As the
military withdrawals during the transition, the State Department will assume greater responsibility for these costs,
which include utilities, storage, housing, furniture, IT infrastructure and equipment, building leases, and general
support costs.
16 The Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2009, P.L. 111-32, forward funded $374.38 million for Diplomatic and
Consular Programs for FY2010.
Congressional Research Service

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Proposed Reductions in Funding
The Administration has proposed reductions in funding for voluntary contributions to
international organizations and foundations, among others. The request for international
organizations is $1.6 billion, a 5% decrease from FY2010, reflecting reduced or eliminated
contributions to several U.N. organizations, including the U.N. High Commission on Refugees,
U.N. Development Fund for Women, U.N. Development Program, U.N. Children’s Fund
(UNICEF), and the U.N. Population Fund (UNFPA). Contributions to several foundations
supported by the bill would be reduced from FY2010 levels as well. The Asia Foundation request
is 17% lower than the FY2010 level, at $15.7 million; the East-West Center faces a 50%
reduction, to $11.4 million; and the National Endowment for Democracy would see an 11% cut,
to $105 million.
FY2011 Budget Request: Foreign Operations
The Foreign Operations budget comprises the majority of U.S. foreign assistance programs, both
bilateral and multilateral. (See Appendix D for Foreign Operations accounts and funding levels.)
The annual State-Foreign Operations Appropriations bill funds most U.S. bilateral development
assistance programs, with the main exception being food assistance appropriated through the
Agriculture Appropriations bill (for which $1.89 billion was appropriated in FY2010 and the
same amount requested for FY2011). These funds are managed primarily by USAID and the State
Department, together with several smaller independent foreign assistance agencies such as the
Millennium Challenge Corporation, the Peace Corps, and the Inter-American and African
Development Foundations. The legislation also supports U.S. contributions to major multilateral
financial institutions, such as the World Bank and U.N. entities, and includes funds for the
Export-Import Bank and Overseas Private Investment Corporation, whose activities are regarded
more as trade promotion than foreign aid. On occasion, the bill replenishes U.S. financial
commitments to international financial institutions, such as the World Bank and the International
Monetary Fund.17
The foreign operations budget request for FY2011 totals $39.40 billion, representing a 5%
increase from the enacted FY2010 level of $37.49 billion, excluding forward funding from the
Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2009.18 Table 4 and Figure 6 provide funding levels for
foreign operations over the past decade, including enacted supplemental appropriations, in both
current and constant dollars. If the FY2011 request is enacted, foreign operations funding will
have increased by 142% in current dollars, and by 91% in constant dollars, from FY2001 to
FY2011.

Foreign Operations Appropriations: A Guide to Component Accounts
, by Curt Tarnoff and Tamara J. Resler.
18 If the Appropriations Act, 2009, is included in the FY2010 estimate rather than the FY2009 total, the increase is
15%.

Top 10 U.S. Foreign Aid Recipient Countries
Prior to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Israel and Egypt typically received the largest amounts
of U.S. foreign aid every year since the Camp David Peace Accords in 1978.19 The reconstruction
efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan moved those countries into the top five, though assistance to Iraq
has declined significantly in the past couple of years, with the completion of many reconstruction
activities. Meanwhile, a combination of security assistance and economic aid designed to limit
the appeal of Islamic extremist organizations has moved Pakistan up the list in recent years.

Programs and Policy

Note: FY2010 figures are preliminary estimates from the State Department/F Bureau. They include forward
funding for FY2010, in the GHCS and FMF accounts, that was provided through FY2009 supplemental
appropriations legislation. They also include supplemental funding from P.L. 111-212.
In the FY2011 request, Afghanistan tops the list at nearly $4 billion, followed by Pakistan at $3
billion. Israel and Egypt would continue to receive significant funds, primarily for Foreign
Military Financing, at $3 billion and $1.56 billion, respectively. Jordan would also continue to
rank high on the list, with $682.7 million requested. Iraq would be the fifth-largest recipient of
aid in FY2011, under the Administration request. Assistance to the other top recipients—Kenya,
Nigeria, Ethiopia, and South Africa—is targeted primarily at HIV/AIDS and other health
programs. Haiti, which is a top recipient in FY2010 as a result of supplemental funds for post-
earthquake relief and reconstruction, would not be a lead recipient in FY2011 under the
Administration’s proposal.
Regional Distribution
As shown in Figure 7, under the FY2011 proposal, Africa and South Central Asia would receive
the most U.S. foreign assistance, with about $7.6 billion requested for each. The aid to Africa
primarily supports HIV/AIDS and other health-related programs while nearly $7 billion of the
$7.6 billion in aid to South Central Asia is requested for Afghanistan and Pakistan. Almost as
high is aid to the Near East region, which continues to be dominated by assistance to Israel, Iraq,
Egypt, and Jordan. The sharp increase in Western Hemisphere totals in FY2010 can largely be
attributed to nearly $1.4 billion in supplemental funds for Haiti. Assistance to Europe and
Eurasia, and to East Asia and Pacific, remains relatively low and consistent, reflecting the
economic gains in these regions as well as strategic priorities.

Sector Distribution
Over the years, Congress has expressed interest in various discrete aid sectors, such as education,
trade, maternal and child health, and biodiversity, that are funded across multiple accounts and/or
agencies. Administrations have begun presenting their respective budget requests with a section
showing what portion of the request would address some of these “key interest areas.” Unlike the
account funding tables in the budget request, however, the key interest area breakout does not
show prior year allocations, limiting year-to-year comparison to requested funds rather than
actual funding. This provides an indication of the Administration’s interests and priorities, but not
necessarily those of congressional appropriators.
Table 6 compares the FY2010 and FY2011 budget requests for key interest areas identified by
the Administration. In keeping with the Administration’s major initiatives, the FY2011 request for
several non-HIV/AIDS health activities increased significantly over the FY2010 request, as did
the request for global climate change, food security, and microfinance programs. The
Administration also emphasized two new focus areas, adding neglected tropical diseases and
nutrition to the key interests list. Meanwhile, pandemic flu appears to be a lower Administration
priority than last year, along with basic education, biodiversity, and Trans-Saharan Counter
Terrorism (an initiative from the Obama Administration’s first budget request).

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Key Foreign Operations Issues
In reviewing the FY2011 Foreign Operations budget request, the following issues stand out as
being Administration priorities or representing significant changes from existing policy or
funding levels.
USAID Capacity Building
USAID continues to expand its Foreign Service staff through the Development Leadership
Initiative (DLI), established in 2008 to double the number of Foreign Service officers at USAID
in order to more effectively implement assistance programs that have expanded significantly in
recent years. As with personnel increases at State, the Administration views this plan as an
investment that will lead to reduced reliance on contractors and greater accountability and cost
savings over time. The Administration is requesting $1.48 billion for USAID Operating Expenses
for FY2011, a 6% increase over the enacted FY2010 level. Of that amount, $354.8 million is
designated for recruiting and hiring 200 new Foreign Service Officers at USAID, as well as
supporting the annualized recurring costs of DLI positions filled since FY2008.
Military/Civilian Transition
The Department of Defense (DOD) greatly expanded its foreign aid activities in the wake of the
Iraq and Afghanistan invasions, when high levels of security and economic aid flowed into those
countries even while instability and relatively low personnel capacity limited the role of civilian
aid agencies. As conditions on the ground have stabilized and both State and USAID have begun
building their capacity, both the Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense have expressed
support for stronger civilian control of these activities. The FY2011 foreign operations request
addresses this issue by including the following funding for activities that were previously funded
through the Defense Appropriations bill:
• The Complex Crisis Fund, for which $100 million was requested for FY2011,
would replace funding for reconstruction, security, and stabilization activities
previously provided through DOD’s Section 1207 authority.
• The Pakistan Counterinsurgency Capability Fund, for which $1.2 billion is
requested for FY2011, moves ongoing activities to improve the capabilities of
Pakistan’s security forces from DOD control to the purview of the Secretary of
State.
• For Iraq, $314.6 million has been included in the International Narcotics Control
and Law Enforcement (INCLE) account request for FY2011 (along with $650
million provided for this purpose in FY2010 supplemental funds) to enable State
to take control of Iraqi police training programs now funded through the DOD.
Secretary of State Clinton has claimed that this shift from military to civilian
control will allow the defense budget for Iraq to decrease by $16 billion.20

in the FY2011 International Affairs Budget,” February 24, 2010.
Congressional Research Service
18

State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs: FY2011 Budget and Appropriations

Front-Line States
As demonstrated in Table 5, proposed funding for FY2011 would largely continue the FY2010
flow of assistance to countries of strategic interest in the fight against terrorism. The request
included $12.22 billion, or 34% of the total bilateral aid request, for “front-line” states.21 For
Afghanistan, $3.92 billion is requested for FY2011, primarily to increase U.S. civilian resources
to balance the recent troop surge. For Pakistan, $3.05 billion is requested for FY2011, primarily
to build the capacity of the government of Pakistan and support infrastructure and economic
development projects that provide tangible benefits to communities and reduce the appeal of
extremism. For Iraq, $729 million is requested for FY2011, on top of $650 million provided in
FY2010 supplemental funds, to support the aforementioned civilian takeover of security training
programs.
Global Health
The Administration has requested $8.5 billion in the Global Health and Child Survival account
for Global Health Initiative (GHI) activities in FY2011. The request represents an 8.8% increase
over the FY2010-enacted level, or 8.1% if $50 million the Administration considers forward
funding from the FY2009 supplemental is counted toward the FY2010 total. The six-year, $63
billion GHI is intended to be a comprehensive approach to global health problems that builds on
the previous Administration’s focus on global HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, but prioritizes
building strong and sustainable health systems through an emphasis on maternal and pediatric
programs, as well as strategic coordination. Some advocates for HIV/AIDS programs have
expressed concern about the shift in focus, noting that funding requested for HIV/AIDS programs
in FY2011, while slightly above the FY2010 level, is less than amounts authorized by Congress
and, some argue, inadequate to sustain U.S. global commitments. However, Ambassador Eric
Goosby, the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator, has stated that GHI maternal health programs will
include significant activities addressing HIV/AIDS, which is the leading cause of death
worldwide for women of child bearing age.22
Food Security
Food security, first addressed as a key issue in the FY2010 budget request, continues to be a
priority for the Obama Administration, which requested $1.64 billion for related programs in the
FY2011 budget. This amount does not include P.L. 480 food assistance funds, provided through
the Agriculture appropriation. The Administration’s new Global Hunger and Food Security
Initiative is intended to address root causes of food insecurity and proposes to target funding to
countries with widespread hunger, an agriculture-based economy, and comprehensive strategies
for food security already in place. The request also emphasizes the benefits of working
multilaterally and in partnership with other stakeholders to leverage resources. The request
includes $408.4 million for the new multi-donor Global Food Security Trust Fund, managed by
the World Bank, which will support large-scale transportation and irrigation infrastructure,
commercial financing, and research.

Subcommittee on State-Foreign Operations, March 23, 2010.

Climate Change
The Administration has requested $1.39 billion in FY2011 to support activities relating to climate
change, with an emphasis on adaptation, deployment of clean energy technologies, and reduction
of greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable landscapes. A significant portion of this climate
change funding would be channeled through international financial institutions. The $400 million
requested for contribution to the International Clean Technology Fund represents a 33% increase
over the FY2010-enacted level. The request also includes $235 million for the International
Strategic Climate Fund, a 213.3% increase over the estimated FY2010 contribution. Secretary of
the Treasury Timothy Geithner has explained this emphasis on multilateral funding, both for
climate change and food security, as a fiscally responsible approach intended to leverage
commitments from other donors and increase the impact of U.S. funds.23
