Using baseline data provided by\nthe Office of Management and Budget, this report organizes and tracks U.S. spending to combat\nterrorism across the 13 appropriation bills, including amounts allocated from the $40 billion\nemergency supplemental. Each of the FY2002 spending measures includes money for terrorism-\nrelated activities, although the amount varies widely among the 13 bills. Over 80% of the estimated\n$11 billion requested for FY2002 to combat terrorism falls in two appropriation measures: the\nDefense Department appropriation and the Departments of Commerce, Justice, State, the Judiciary\nand Related Agencies appropriation.\n Initial allocations -- totaling $8.8 billion to date -- from the emergency supplemental\nappropriation have also augmented programs aimed at recovering from and responding to the\nterrorist attacks falling under the jurisdiction of each of the 13 appropriation measures. Activities\nfunded in the Defense and Military Construction spending measures have received 62% of the\nallocations, while the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), funded in the\nVeterans/HUD appropriation bill, received 23%. Table 1 provides a summary for each bill and a\ntotal for all 13. Tables 2 through 13 present separate pages for each appropriation measure, listing\nin most cases spending at the account level.\n There are significant limitations in identifying precise amounts included in appropriation bill\naccounts for terrorism-related activities. Some result from the way in which OMB organizes its data\naround categories that do not necessarily correspond to appropriation accounts. In many cases,\nterrorism-related resources are co-mingled in a \"host\" account with other funds with no precise\ndesignation of amounts to combat terrorism. OMB data for defense and military construction\nappropriations are not disaggregated and are provided in only very broad categories. Nevertheless,\ndata presented in this report indicate where funds are concentrated and highlight new spending\ninitiatives that have emerged since September 11.", "type": "CRS Report", "typeId": "REPORTS", "active": false, "formats": [ { "format": "PDF", "encoding": null, "url": "http://www.crs.gov/Reports/pdf/RL31168", "sha1": "58024b9d3106b97b972478f0979d19a057b63033", "filename": "files/20011025_RL31168_58024b9d3106b97b972478f0979d19a057b63033.pdf", "images": null }, { "format": "HTML", "filename": "files/20011025_RL31168_58024b9d3106b97b972478f0979d19a057b63033.html" } ], "topics": [] } ], "topics": [ "Appropriations", "Foreign Affairs", "Intelligence and National Security" ] }
