      "title": "Defense: FY2011 Authorization and Appropriations",
      "summary": "The President\u2019s FY2011 budget request, released February 1, 2010, requested authorization of $725.9 billion in new budget authority in the FY2011 National Defense Authorization Act. In addition to $548.9 billion for the regular (non-war) operations of the Department of Defense (DOD), the authorization request included $159.3 billion for ongoing military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, bringing the total DOD request for FY2011 to $708.2 billion. The request also included $17.7 billion for defense-related activities of the Department of Energy.\nThe President\u2019s FY2011 DOD appropriations request, totaling $709.0 billion, was accompanied by a request for a supplemental FY2010 DOD appropriation of $33.7 billion. The supplemental request included $33.0 billion for war costs and $655 million to pay DOD\u2019s share of the cost of humanitarian relief operations in Haiti, struck on January 12, 2010, by a devastating earthquake.\nThe $548.9 billion appropriation requested for DOD\u2019s so-called \u201cbase budget\u201d\u2014that is, all activities other than war costs\u2014was $18.2 billion higher than the amount appropriated for DOD non-war costs in FY2010. By DOD\u2019s estimate, this 3.4% increase would have amounted to a \u201creal\u201d increase of 1.8% in purchasing power, after taking into account the cost of inflation. \nOn May 28, 2010, the House passed H.R. 5136, the National Defense Authorization Act for FY2011, which would have authorized $725.9 billion for DOD and other defense-related activities, a reduction of less than $3 million from the Administration\u2019s request for programs covered by that legislation. The House bill would have added to the budget $485 million to continue development of the alternate engine for the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), despite warnings by Defense Secretary Robert H. Gates that he would recommend a veto of any bill that would continue that project. An amendment adopted by the House would have repealed a 1993 law that, in effect, bars from military service those who are openly homosexual.\nOn June 4, 2010, the Senate Armed Services Committee reported its version of the FY2011 National Defense Authorization Act (S. 3454; S.Rept. 111-201), which would have authorized $725.7 billion for DOD and other defense-related activities, a reduction of $240.7 million from the Administration\u2019s request. The committee bill would have repealed the \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell\u201d law and it would not add funds for the JSF alternate engine. Controversy over the \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell\u201d repeal and other provisions blocked Senate action on S. 3454 for months.\nMeanwhile, informal negotiations among senior members of the House and Senate Armed Services Committees produced a compromise bill, the Ike Skelton National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 (H.R. 6523). This bill was cleared for the President on December 22, 2010, and was signed by the President on January 7, 2011 (P.L. 111-383). The enacted defense authorization bill included no provision relating to the \u201cdon\u2019t ask, don\u2019t tell\u201d policy, which was repealed by separate legislation (H.R. 2965; P.L. 111-321).\nNeither the House nor the Senate passed any FY2011 appropriations bills before the fiscal year began on October 1, 2010, so DOD\u2014like other federal agencies\u2014was funded through the first six months of FY2011 by a series of continuing resolutions. The legislative battle over the FY2011 budget wound up on April 15, 2011, when the President signed H.R. 1473 (P.L. 112-10), funding Defense and other agencies through the balance of FY2011. For DOD, the bill provided a total of $688.6 billion, which is $20.4 billion less than the President\u2019s request. The bill included no funds for the JSF alternate engine.",
