      "summary": "On April 19, the White House sent Congress a request for emergency supplemental funding of\n$6.05\nbillion to cover costs of U.S. military operations against Yugoslavia, assistance to Kosovo refugees,\nand some expenses of military operations in Iraq. On May 6, the House approved an emergency\nsupplemental appropriations bill,  H.R. 1664 , that provided $13 billion, about $7 billion\nmore than requested. Subsequently, House and Senate conferees on  H.R. 1141 , a bill\nto provide supplemental appropriations for Central America disaster relief and other purposes, folded\nKosovo-related funding into that measure and approved the conference agreement on May 13. On\nMay 18, the House approved the conference agreement by a vote of 269-158, and on May 20, the\nSenate approved the agreement by a vote of 64-36. The President signed the bill into law ( P.L.\n106-31 ) on May 21. In all, the measure provides $14.9 billion in supplemental funds and makes $2.0\nbillion in offsetting rescissions. Funds are provided for Kosovo, Central America disaster assistance,\naid to Jordan, farm relief, domestic disaster relief, and other purposes. This report may be of interest\nto staff and Members in tracking debate over funding for Kosovo-related operations.
