ARI was proposed as an expansion of support for Plan\nColombia, under the Clinton Administration, with more funding for social and economic\ndevelopment programs for Colombia and its neighbors, who are affected by Colombia's struggle\nagainst guerrillas and drug traffickers. From FY2000 through FY2003, Colombia and other ARI\nrecipients have received more than $3 billion in U.S. funding.\n In early 2003, an FY2003 Emergency Wartime Supplemental bill ( H.Rept. 108-76 / P.L. 108-11 )\nprovided $105 million in additional assistance for the Andean Counterdrug Initiative and related\nprograms. This included $34 million for the State Department's International Narcotics Control and\nLaw Enforcement account, $34 million for the Department of Defense's Drug Interdiction and\nCounter-Drug Activities account, and $37.1 million in Foreign Military Financing Program funds.\n The President submitted his FY2004 budget request to Congress on February 3, 2003,\nincluding $990.7 million for countries comprising the Andean Regional Initiative, including\nmilitary funding for Colombia. Of the $990.7 million requested, $731 million is for the Andean\nCounterdrug Initiative, $133.5 million for the Foreign Military Financing Program, with the\nremainder of the overall figure in development, economic, and health programs.\n The House passed H.R. 2800 , ( H.Rept. 108-222 ) the FY2004 Foreign Operations\nAppropriations Bill, on July 23, 2003, fully funding the President's request for $731 million for ACI. \nThe Senate passed S. 1426 ( S.Rept.108-106 ) on October 24, 2003, providing $660\nmillion for ACI, with authority to transfer an additional $37 million from the State Department's\nInternational Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement (INCLE) account to ACI. The conference\nreport ( H.R. 2673 / H.Rept. 108-401 ), passed by the House on December 8, 2003, and\nthe Senate on January 22, 2004, provides $731 million. ( P.L. 108-199 signed January 23, 2004.)\n Both the House and Senate passed the FY2003-FY2004 Foreign Relations Authorization Act\n( H.R. 1950 / S. 925 ), with provisions relating to Colombia and drug\ninterdiction programs in the Andean region. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee reported out\nthe FY2004 Foreign Assistance Authorization Act ( S. 1161 / S.Rept.108-56 ) with\nseveral modifications on assistance to Colombia and the Andean region. Congress completed the\nFY2004 National Defense Authorization Act, ( P.L. 108-136 ) providing authorization for drug\ninterdiction and counterdrug activities for DOD programs. It also passed the FY2004 Intelligence\nAuthorization Act ( P.L. 108-177 ) authorizing continuing counterdrug and counterterrorism\nactivities.
