""'~' 1511a'"'" of Funding for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War 

on Terrorism 

Section 114( c) of division D of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2018 and Supplemental 

Appropriations for Disaster Relief Requirements Act, 2017 ("the Act") provides that the availability 

of funding contained in the Act that is designated by the Congress for Overseas Contingency 

Operations/Global War on Tetmrism pursuant to section 25J(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and 

Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 is contingent upon the President subsequently so 

designating all such amounts and to the Congress. 

These funds for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism cover the 

military and civilian costs necessary to achieve U.S. national security goals in Afghanistan, the 

broader Middle East, and other designated conflict zones and to address other emergent crises. I 

recommend that you designate for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism all 

tlmding (including the rescission offunds) and contributions from foreign governments so designated 

by the Congress in section 114( a) of division D of the Act pursuant to section 251 (b )(2)(A) of 

BBEDCA, as outlined in the enelosed list of accounts. Upon transmittal of these designations to the 

Congress, these funds will be available for obligation and expenditure, unless otherwise restricted in 

the Act. No further congressional action will be required for this designation. 

The designation of these fi.mds for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 

Terrorism allows for adjustments to the discretionary spending limits in Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, as 

specified in section 25l(b)(2)(A) ofBBEDCA. These adjustments will be reflected when the Office 

of Management and Budget submits its final sequestration report for FY 2018 under section 254(f) of 

BBEDCA. 

I have reviewed this proposed action and am satisfied it is necessary at this time. Therefore, I 

recommend that you make the requested funds available by signing the attached letters to the Speaker 

of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senate.
