Official State Department Release of President’s International Affairs Budget Request to Congress
Budget Update 2/6/06
Today, the President submitted a $2.77 trillion FY07 budget to Congress that called for an overall 3% increase in discretionary spending.
As for the International Affairs Budget, the Administration requested an increase of $3.53 billion over FY06 Enacted, representing an 11% increase. This marks the fifth consecutive year that the Administration has called for increases in the International Affairs Budget.
ut in perspective, the amount of requested increase for the FY07 International Affairs Budget as a percentage of the overall FY07 Federal Budget is just 0.097%. The $33.6 billion request is in fact almost identical to the President’s overall request from last year.
The USGLC is pleased that the Administration is continuing its increased investment in these critical programs, however we are concerned that the investments in long term development and diplomatic programs are not keeping pace with U.S. national interests.
Please see details below. A formal USGLC statement will be released later today, and stay tuned for further analysis.
