      "title": "Military Operations: Precedents for Funding Contingency Operations in Regular or in Supplemental Appropriations Bills",
      "summary": "Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Congress has appropriated $331 billion for\nmilitary\noperations in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere. Of that amount, $301 billion, or 91%, has been\nprovided either in supplemental appropriations bills or as additional \"emergency\" funding in separate\ntitles of annual defense appropriations acts. \n A recurring issue in Congress has been whether funding for ongoing military operations -- such\nas those in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere -- should be provided in supplemental appropriations\nbills and in additional \"emergency\" accounts, or should instead be considered as part of regular\nannual defense budget requests.\n This report briefly reviews the main precedents, including funding for the Korean conflict, the\nVietnam conflict, the Persian Gulf War of 1990-1991, and various smaller military contingency\noperations in the 1990s. It will be updated as events warrant.",
