SUMMARY OF ESTIMATES

The Committee recommendation for the fiscal year 2011 budget 

for the activities under the jurisdiction of the Subcommittee on the 

Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs is 

$54,056,000,000 in new discretionary budget authority, which is 

$5,292,000,000 above the fiscal year 2010 enacted level and 

$2,590,643,000 below the fiscal year 2011 budget request. An additional $158,900,000 is for mandatory spending. 

INTRODUCTION

The Committee believes that in a time of large budget deficits 

the Department of State, USAID, and other Federal departments 

and agencies administering funds appropriated in this act should 

ensure that funds are used to the greatest effect to protect U.S. security interests and strengthen democratic institutions, civil society, and market economies in foreign countries. The design, implementation, and oversight of foreign assistance programs should be 

conducted with the full participation and support of national or 

local governments and/or civil society organizations. The Department of State and USAID should review all bilateral and multilateral programs to determine the cost effectiveness of ongoing activities. The Committee is concerned that too often programs are not 

well coordinated and the measure of ‘‘success’’ is the amount of 

funds expended, rather than the results achieved. Programs which 

fail to meet clear and achievable goals and objectives should be terminated. 

The Committee is aware that due to severe budget constraints, 

funding for new initiatives in global health, agriculture and food 

security, climate change, and other areas are invariably forced to 
8 

compete for funds with ongoing assistance programs. The Committee notes that USAID, the Department of State, and the Broadcasting Board of Governors have authority to reprogram prior-year 

unobligated balances to address priority needs. 

COUNTRIES OF SPECIAL CONCERN

The Committee notes that a significant portion of total United 

States foreign assistance is being provided to three countries in 

support of United States efforts to combat international terrorism: 

Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq. The Committee is aware that 

these countries currently have pipelines of unobligated prior-year 

funds, and that the rate of disbursement of funds is affected by security threats, corruption, ethnic and tribal rivalries, and limited 

absorptive capacity. 

The Committee recognizes that the difficult social, economic, political, and security challenges these countries face will take many 

years to address. Substantial investments of U.S. taxpayer funds 

have been made, but the results have too often fallen short, and 

in some instances far short, of expectations. The Committee expects 

the administration to define clear, achievable goals, benchmarks 

for measuring progress, and to disburse funds in an accountable 

manner. Priority should be given to strengthening the capacity of 

government institutions and civil society to achieve sustainable results, and ensuring that programs are carried out in ways that promote respect for democratic values and human rights. 

AFGHANISTAN

The Committee recommends $660,623,000 for Department of State operations in Afghanistan, including $247,345,000 to increase 

diplomatic presence through additional Foreign Service Officers 

and locally employed staff. The Committee recommends a total of $2,631,500,000 for assistance for Afghanistan, including $2,100,000,000 under the ESF 

heading, $400,000,000 under the INCLE heading, $65,000,000 

under the GHCS heading, $65,000,000 under the NADR heading, 

and $1,500,000 under the IMET heading. The Committee recommends not less than $20,000,000 for the Afghan Civilian Assistance Program under the ESF heading to assist individuals and 

communities that suffer losses as a result of military operations, 

and directs USAID to consult with the Committee on the use of 

funds prior to obligation. 

The Committee continues conditions on assistance which seek to 

increase the effectiveness of aid provided, prioritize the role of 

women, and strengthen transparency and accountability. No funds 

appropriated by this act may be made available for a permanent 

basing rights agreement between the United States and Afghanistan. 

The Committee recognizes that security and sustainable development are necessary to achieve stability in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, widespread insecurity is hampering development efforts, 

and USAID and other U.S. Government civilians and implementing 

contractors and NGOs are limited in their ability to carry out and 

oversee programs. Recognizing that the current circumstances require taking risks and that not all programs will succeed, the Com-
9 

mittee cautions that smaller projects, with an emphasis on local capacity building, have the best chance of producing cost-effective, 

sustainable results. 

The Committee remains concerned with the impact of corruption 

on security and sustainable development in Afghanistan, and conditions budget support on a Secretary of State certification that the 

Government of Afghanistan is taking credible steps to combat corruption, including arresting and prosecuting individuals alleged to 

be involved in corrupt practices. 

PAKISTAN

The Committee recommends $92,574,000 for Department of State 

operations in Pakistan, including $38,623,000 to increase diplomatic presence through additional Foreign Service Officers and locally employed staff. This amount also includes $11,450,000 for 

public diplomacy initiatives, including expanded English language 

teaching and enhanced communications and journalism programs 

to counter violent extremism. 

The Committee recommends a total of $2,477,100,000 for assistance for Pakistan, including $1,100,000,000 under the ESF heading, $900,000,000 under the PCCF heading, $271,000,000 under 

the FMF heading, $125,000,000 under the INCLE heading, 

$55,000,000 under the GHCS heading, $22,000,000 under the 

NADR heading, and $4,100,000 under the IMET heading. The 

Committee recommends not less than $10,000,000 for the Pakistan 

Civilian Assistance Program under the ESF heading to assist individuals and communities that suffer losses as a result of military 

operations, and directs USAID to consult with the Committee on 

the use of funds prior to obligation. 

The Committee continues current conditions on assistance including for budget support for the Government of Pakistan. 

The Committee recommends continuing and expanding programs 

and activities that support the development of independent media, 

including radio and television, in Pakistan and Afghanistan. The 

Committee encourages the Department of State to more aggressively work with Pakistani entities to promote democracy and 

human rights in that country. 

IRAQ

The Committee recommends $1,615,600,000 for Department of 

State operations in Iraq to support the planned transition from a 

military to a civilian United States presence. This includes 

$639,663,000 to transition security support responsibilities to the 

Department of State from the Department of Defense. 

The Committee recommends a total of $529,000,000 for assistance for Iraq, including $200,000,000 under the ESF heading, 

$300,000,000 under the INCLE heading, $27,000,000 under the 

NADR heading, and $2,000,000 under the IMET heading. 

Funds appropriated by this act for security programs in Iraq may 

only be made available if the Secretary of State certifies that the 

Government of Iraq has committed to contributing to, and sustaining, such programs. Conditions in prior appropriations acts are 

continued, including cost-matching requirements and restrictions 
10 

on assistance to enter into a permanent basing rights agreement 

between the United States and Iraq. 

The Committee notes that since 2003, the United States has pro- vided more than $53,000,000,000 for Iraq relief and reconstruction, 

and that today the Government of Iraq is responsible for the social, 

economic, and political development of the country. Iraq has made 

notable progress since the removal of Saddam Hussein, and the 

Committee expects future budget requests to reflect a significant 

phase down of Department of State operations and United States 

assistance for Iraq, excluding democracy and rule of law activities. 

The Committee continues to support the Marla Ruzicka Iraqi War 

Victims Fund to assist civilian victims of conflict, and the transition of this program to an Iraqi-run entity.

TITLE I 

DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND RELATED AGENCY 

DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

The Committee recommends a total of $17,456,011,000 for the 

Department of State and the Broadcasting Board of Governors. 

ADMINISTRATION OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS

DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR PROGRAMS

(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $8,227,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 1 9,545,221,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 9,600,000,000 

1 Includes $3,021,000 requested for Agency Acquisition Workforces under the General Provisions heading. 

The Committee recommends $9,600,000,000 for Diplomatic and 

Consular Programs, which is $54,779,000 above the budget request 

and $1,373,000,000 above the fiscal year 2010 level. Of this 

amount, $1,681,000,000 is for worldwide security protection and 

$561,971,000 is for public diplomacy activities. The Committee recommendation separates the functions funded under this heading to 

provide more transparency in the uses of funds. However, the Department of State may reprogram funds as necessary, subject to 

consultation with the Committee. 

Consular Fee Retention.—The Committee notes that the absence 

of authorizing language to expand the Department of State’s authority to retain consular fees for its operations results in an immediate reduction of $634,000,000 from the budget request. The Committee provides $460,000,000 under the D&CP heading to support 

overseas staffing and operations costs that were proposed to be 

funded by these consular fees to mitigate the impact of this reduction, and strongly recommends that the administration refrain 

from assuming the retention of these consular fees in the fiscal 

year 2012 budget request. 

Human Resources.—The Committee recommends $2,597,472,000 

for all American salaries at overseas and domestic United States 

diplomatic missions. While the Committee is not able to fund the 

additional new positions and associated training requested under 

the Human Resources Initiatives except in the bureaus of Near 

Eastern Affairs and South Central Asian Affairs, the Committee 

will consider reallocation of funds under the D&CP heading to support additional positions. 

Overseas Programs.—The Committee recommends 

$3,504,493,000 for the operational programs of regional bureaus of 

the Department of State. Regional bureaus are responsible for 
12 

managing U.S. foreign policy through bilateral and multilateral relationships. Funds support U.S. Embassies, consulates, and other 

diplomatic posts worldwide. 

Diplomatic Policy and Support.—The Committee recommends 

$896,028,000 for the operational programs of the functional bureaus of the Department of State to provide overall policy direction, 

coordination, and program management among U.S. missions 

abroad. The Committee does not provide funding for Blair House 

renovations. However, the Committee will consider a proposal from 

the Department to fund this project through a reprioritization of 

existing domestic facilities projects and reprogramming of funds. 

Security Programs.—The Committee recommends $2,602,007,000 

for the operation of security programs, including $1,431,685,000 for 

worldwide security protection to protect diplomatic personnel, overseas diplomatic missions, residences, and domestic facilities and information. An additional $249,315,000 is included within the 

Human Resources function for salaries to make up the total 

amount in this act for Worldwide Security Protection, 

$1,681,000,000. 

Funds are allocated in the following table and subject to the requirements of section 7019 of this act:

PROGRAM ISSUES

Airwing.—The Committee expects the Department of State and 

USAID to continue to follow the Afghanistan airwing directives, including inter-agency coordination and communications interoperability, contained in Public Law 111–32. 

Acquisition Improvement Initiative.—The Committee recommends $2,000,000 under this heading for the administration’s 
13 

acquisition workforce improvement, which is $1,020,745 below the 

budget request. 

Cultural Heritage.—The Committee recommends $10,250,000 for 

this program, including $1,000,000 for the Cultural Antiquities 

Task Force. This also includes $3,500,000 requested under the ESF 

heading for the GE initiative to support up to six large-scale 

projects to preserve cultural heritage sites. In addition, the Committee recommends $5,750,000 to continue this program worldwide 

and includes funds for up to five large-scale projects. The Department of State should consult with the Committee prior to the obligation of funds. 

Diplomatic Security.—The Committee does not recommend 

$17,000,000 for the continued expansion of the Foreign Affairs Security Training Center. While initially funded in Public Law 111– 

5, the Department has been unable to initiate this project in a 

timely manner and is still considering possible locations for the facility. Until a location is selected and the Department has finalized 

plans for the initial phase of the facility, the Committee does not 

believe the Department can adequately justify an additional 

$17,000,000 for this purpose in fiscal year 2011. 

Human Rights Vetting.—The Committee supports the Department of State’s efforts to monitor U.S. military training and equipment provided to foreign security forces, but is concerned that the 

vetting process is uneven among U.S. Embassies and falls short in 

some countries where the military or police have a history of violating human rights with impunity. The Committee recommends 

not less than $2,000,000 for DRL for personnel, training, and other 

support to strengthen the vetting process. This includes developing 

the procedures specified in section 7034(s) of this act. 

Information Technology.—The Committee provides $289,591,000 

for IT salaries and programs, including for cybersecurity, and encourages the Department of State to coordinate such activities with 

USAID and other Federal agencies, as appropriate. Given the inherent international functions of diplomacy and development, the 

Committee believes the Department of State and USAID to be particularly vulnerable to cyber attacks. 

International Cooperative Administrative Support Services.—The 

Committee directs the Comptroller General of the United States to 

conduct a review of the ICASS system, to include: (1) a determination of the impact of the implementation of the recommendations 

in Report GAO–04–511 ‘‘Embassy Management: Actions Are Needed to Increase Efficiency and Improve Delivery of Administrative 

Support Services’’, including an evaluation of whether ICASS is 

cost-efficient and reduces administrative redundancies; (2) an evaluation of the Department of State and USAID’s efforts to consolidate overseas administrative services through ICASS; (3) a review 

of the impact of the increased operating and maintenance costs of 

new Embassy compounds on ICASS service costs, and an evaluation of the sustainability of these costs for ICASS customer agencies; and (4) an evaluation of ICASS customer satisfaction, including the validity and reliability of the annual ICASS customer satisfaction survey. 

Labor Officers.—The Committee is concerned that many Labor 

Officer positions at U.S. Embassies have been downgraded and 
14 

some are not used for their designated function. Labor Officers play 

a critical role in reporting on worker rights, including the worst 

forms of child labor, human trafficking, freedom of association, and 

working conditions among key trading partners. The Committee 

supports additional personnel and funding to strengthen diplomacy 

on labor issues. 

Mid-career Pilot Program.—The Committee is aware of the 

dearth of mid-career Foreign Service Officers at the Department of 

State, and directs the Secretary of State, in consultation with the 

Committee, to implement a pilot program to recruit, hire, and train 

mid-career professionals for the Foreign Service. 

Locally Employed Staff.—The Committee recommends 

$773,479,000 for LES salaries (excluding those under the Local 

Guard Program), and authorizes the use of such funds for awards 

and special benefits, including compensation should LES be killed 

in the line of duty. 

Office of Global Women’s Issues.—The Committee recommends 

$2,500,000 for the Office of Global Women’s Issues in fiscal year 

2011. 

Property Inventory.—The Committee directs that prior to purchasing equipment including vehicles and cell phones, the Secretary of State report to the Committee that the Department has 

taken effective steps to improve its property inventory procedure, 

and rescinds $5,000,000 from unobligated prior-year balances 

under this heading. The Committee believes that the Department 

can save at least $5,000,000 through improved property inventory 

controls and management of its prior-year unliquidated obligations 

based on findings from two OIG reports, ‘‘MERO–A–10–07, Audit 

of Property Accountability at Embassy Baghdad’’ and ‘‘ISP–I–10– 

05, The Bureau of Administration’s Office of Real Property Management and Office of Facilities Management Services’’ and the 

independent auditors’ fiscal year 2009 report. The findings indicate 

widespread, persistent problems with accurately tracking and managing Department property and equipment as well as poor management of unliquidated obligations that has potentially resulted in 

unnecessary expenditures and inefficient use of funds. The OIG 

audit of the Embassy Baghdad found a number of unliquidated obligations that could be cancelled and reused and the independent 

auditors stated that in fiscal year 2009 approximately $171,000,000 

in unliquidated obligations should have been deobligated. 

Office of Defense Trade Controls Licensing.—The Department 

proposed funding an additional 12 positions in the Office of Defense 

Trade Controls Licensing through the expanded use of registration 

fees, but this expanded use has not yet been authorized. The Committee directs the Department to ensure that the office has the necessary budget and staff to fulfill its responsibilities in a timely and 

effective manner. 

Public Diplomacy.—The Committee recommends a total of 

$561,971,000 for public diplomacy programs, to be funded through 

direct appropriations and an additional $763,436,000 through Department of State fees. The Committee provides $14,356,000 to establish up to 10 new American Centers at locations around the 

world and to develop several American Center models to meet different local interests, preferences, and security conditions. The 
15 

Committee supports continued funding by the Office of Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs for new media programming for targeted Arabic language television programs, to foster cultural, educational, and professional dialogues through indigenous Arabic language satellite media. 

Tibet.—The Committee continues to recognize the important role 

played by the Special Coordinator for Tibetan Issues in implementing Tibet programs and policies, and urges the Secretary of 

State to provide support for the Coordinator in carrying out the 

broad responsibilities detailed in section 621(d) of Public Law 107– 

228, as well as for convening coordinating meetings for appropriate 

U.S. Government agencies, NGOs, and representatives of the Tibetan leadership. 

Videoconference Interviews.—Section 7034(z) of this act directs 

the Secretary of State to develop and conduct a pilot program for 

processing tourist visas using secure remote videoconferencing 

technology as a method for conducting visa interviews of applicants. The Secretary is also directed to submit the report requested 

in the joint statement accompanying Public Law 111–8 on the implementation of a program to expand access to consular services 

through the use of alternative interview techniques including 

videoconferencing. The Committee directs the Department to allocate sufficient funds to implement section 7034(z) of this act. 

Trafficking in Persons.—The Committee recommends a total of 

$51,692,000 in this act for Trafficking in Persons programs. Of this 

amount, $6,410,000 is included under the D&CP heading for the 

Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons ($3,149,000 

for programs and $3,261,000 for salaries), which is $396,000 below 

the budget request. 

Of the total provided to the O/TIP, not less than $100,000 should 

be used to meet unexpected urgent needs to prevent trafficking in 

persons or protect victims of trafficking. These funds are intended 

to enhance the capacity of the O/TIP to assist victims and support 

governments facing urgent protection needs, including risk assessment, shelter, food and other basic necessities, counseling, medical 

services, legal services, travel documentation, safe transport arrangements for return and reintegration, or for participation in judicial proceedings, and reception and resettlement arrangements. 

Emergency trafficking assistance may be considered for use in a 

country that is on tier II or below in the Department of State’s 

most recent Trafficking in Persons report and when a local or national government requests or agrees to such assistance and demonstrates the will to participate in the emergency response. The 

Department is directed to report to the Committee no later than 

September 30, 2011 on the use of these funds. 

REPORT

Security Contractors.—The Committee directs the Secretary of 

State, in consultation with the Secretary of Defense, to submit a 

report not later than 180 days after enactment of this act on private security contractors serving at U.S. missions in war zones 

where the U.S. Armed Forces are engaged in combat operations. 

The report shall describe the number, cost, and duties of such contractors; the number of personnel assigned to oversee them; the 
16 

cost of filling those positions with military or other U.S. Government personnel; the estimated length of time it would take to replace such contractors with Government personnel; and the advantages and disadvantages of replacing the contractors with Government personnel. The Committee further directs that not later than 

180 days after the date of enactment of this act, the Director of the 

Congressional Budget Office shall submit a report estimating the 

cost of replacing such contractors with Government personnel. 

CIVILIAN STABILIZATION INITIATIVE

(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. 1 $120,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 184,000,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 50,000,000 

1 An additional $30,000,000 was provided for CSI in title II in fiscal year 2010. 

The Committee recommends $50,000,000 for the Civilian Stabilization Initiative, which is $134,000,000 below the budget request and $70,000,000 below the fiscal year 2010 level. 

The Committee recommends hiring not more than 200 active CSI 

personnel in fiscal year 2011, and is concerned with the plan to 

hire 2,243 standby CSI personnel. The Committee questions the 

Department’s ability to effectively deploy such a large number of 

personnel and urges the Department to reconsider its plan to ensure that it is realistic and affordable. 

The Committee continues to believe that the success of CSI can 

best be achieved through a gradual stand up and implementation 

and is concerned that CSI has not been adequately integrated into 

the overall United States response to crises and disasters, including in Haiti and Kyrgyzstan. The Committee is also concerned that 

the timelines for hiring, training, and deployment of its civilian 

corps have been overly ambitious and unrealistic. The Committee 

does not include funding for deployments and encourages the Department of State and USAID to utilize funds from the Complex 

Crisis Fund and other crisis and disaster response funds for this 

purpose. The Committee does not support the request for the acquisition of new space or the additional 14 positions to support an expanded Reconstruction and Stabilization coordination and management function. The Committee includes $1,100,000 for the Civilian 

Deployment Center which the Committee understands is the updated estimate for the cost of operating the center. 

Funds appropriated under this heading may not be made available for obligation until the Secretary of State submits a report to 

the Committee clarifying the role of CSI in international crisis response, providing lessons learned since CSI’s inception, and detailing how CSI efforts are coordinated with those of other U.S. Government agencies, particularly USAID and the Department of Defense. 

The Committee notes, and supports, the administration’s decision 

to not request funding for a CRC reserve component. The Committee will consider such funding only after the CSI has established a record of effective operations and can demonstrate programmatic accomplishments.

CAPITAL INVESTMENT FUND

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $139,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 144,100,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 139,000,000 

The Committee recommends $139,000,000 for the Capital Investment Fund, which is $5,100,000 below to the budget request. 

OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $102,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 120,152,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 115,000,000 

The Committee recommends $115,000,000 for the Office of Inspector General, which is $5,152,000 below the budget request, of 

which $30,287,000 is for the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction and $22,000,000 is for the Special Inspector 

General for Iraq Reconstruction. The Committee supports the independent oversight and investigative responsibilities of the Inspectors General of the Department of State, USAID, SIGAR, and 

SIGIR and directs the Inspectors General to coordinate their activities in Iraq and Afghanistan to minimize unnecessary duplication, 

ensuring that resources are used effectively. 

REPORT

Implementation of Recommendations.—The Committee is concerned with persistent reports that SIGAR is not meeting quality 

standards for investigations and audits, and directs SIGAR to report to the Committee within 45 days of enactment of this act on 

the implementation of the recommendations included in the July 

14, 2010 Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency review of SIGAR and on the proposed uses of funds provided 

in this act. 

EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMS

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $635,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 633,200,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 654,277,000 

The Committee recommends $654,277,000 for Educational and 

Cultural Exchange Programs, which is $21,077,000 above the budget request under this heading. 

Funds are allocated in the following table and subject to the requirements of section 7019 of this act:

Every program for which the Committee recommends funding in 

the previous table is established pursuant to an act of Congress, or 

is a program for which funding is authorized by an act of Congress, 

or was included in the President’s budget request for fiscal year 

2011. 

Youth Exchange.—The Committee supports the goals of the Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study Program, which enables 

secondary school students from countries with significant Muslim 

populations to live with American families and study in the United 

States, and American students to live and study in such countries. 

The Committee recommends $25,500,000 for this program in fiscal 

year 2011. 

Global Engagement.—The Committee recommends $13,500,000, 

of which up to $1,250,000 may be used for program support, for exchange programs requested under the ESF heading for the GE initiative. The Committee understands that these funds will be used 

to expand exchanges and English language programs in Muslimmajority countries and Muslim communities worldwide. The Committee does not support the request to reallocate $15,519,000 from 

exchange programs in other regions worldwide to support exchanges with Pakistan ($8,000,000) and other Muslim-majority 

countries ($7,519,000). The Committee directs the Department to 

submit a spend plan by country prior to obligating the funds under 

this heading. 

One-time International Exchange Grant Program.—The Committee recommends $8,500,000 to provide one-time competitive 

grants for international exchanges that address issues of mutual 

interest to the United States and other countries, consistent with 

the criteria established in fiscal year 2008. This program shall be 

only for the actual exchange of people and should benefit a population that is not being addressed through existing exchanges. The 

Secretary of State shall submit a report to the Committee of those 

organizations that are eligible for a grant and, not later than September 1, 2011, a report describing the grant recipients and intended uses of funds. 

The Committee encourages the Department to utilize this program to expand international exchanges in areas that are not predominantly served by other U.S. Government exchange programs, 

such as exchange with developing countries; community leaders 

who would not traditionally have an opportunity to participate in 

an exchange; students and youth with high financial need; and indigenous and other minority ethnic groups. Exchange programs eligible for consideration for a one-time grant in fiscal year 2011 include, but are not limited to, Sister Cities International; University 

of Iowa; Lower Manhattan Arts Leaders; Middlebury College; University of Montana; Northeast Asia Economic Forum; Tufts University; and Morehouse College. The Committee notes that an exchange program that received a one-time grant in a previous year 

is ineligible for additional one-time funding, but the Committee encourages the Department to consider new proposals from previously 

funded grantees within discretionary funding if they meet appropriate guidelines.

REPRESENTATION ALLOWANCES

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $8,175,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 8,175,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 8,175,000 

The Committee recommends $8,175,000 for Representation Allowances, which is equal to the budget request, for reimbursement 

to Foreign Service Officers for expenditures incurred in their official capacities abroad in establishing and maintaining relations 

with officials of foreign governments and members of local communities. The Committee recommends that not more than $500,000 of 

the funds made available under this account and under the Emergencies in the Diplomatic and Consular Service heading may be 

made available for official representation funds for the Office of the 

Chief of Protocol. 

PROTECTION OF FOREIGN MISSIONS AND OFFICIALS

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $28,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 27,200,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 31,500,000 

The Committee recommends $31,500,000 for Protection of Foreign Missions and Officials, which is $4,300,000 above the budget 

request, to reimburse local governments and communities for the 

extraordinary costs incurred in providing protection for international organizations, foreign missions and officials, and foreign 

dignitaries under certain circumstances. 

Of this amount, the Committee provides $4,300,000 for securityrelated costs associated with the APEC 2011 meetings hosted by 

the United States. The funds may be used to reimburse State and 

local police agencies for providing security for visiting foreign officials and their delegations attending APEC meetings. 

The Committee intends that in instances where a local jurisdiction will benefit financially from a visit by a foreign delegation, 

such circumstances should be taken into account by the Department in assessing the need for reimbursement under this program. 

The Committee expects the Department to provide reimbursement 

to local jurisdictions on a timely basis if claims are fully justified. 

EMBASSY SECURITY, CONSTRUCTION, AND MAINTENANCE

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $1,815,050,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 1,681,500,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 1,848,164,000 

The Committee recommends $1,848,164,000 for Embassy Security, Construction, and Maintenance for the management of real 

property assets overseas in order to provide diplomatic and consular missions with secure, safe, and functional facilities, of which 

$914,082,000 is for maintenance and planning for Department of 

State facilities and $934,082,000 is for worldwide security upgrades, acquisition, and construction program. 

Consular Fees.—The Committee includes $174,000,000 to support 

ESCM and worldwide security upgrade program costs proposed to 

be funded by the expanded retention of consular fees. 

American Centers.—The Committee continues to support the renovation and construction of American Centers through a strategy 
22 

that balances the need for publicly accessible facilities, reasonable 

and sustainable costs, and compliance with the Secure Embassy 

Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 1999 regulations, and 

encourages continued coordination by the offices of Overseas Building Operations, Diplomatic Security and Public Diplomacy to 

achieve this strategy. The Committee supports funding construction and renovation costs for American Centers within the OBO 

budget and will consider a transfer from the $14,356,000 provided 

under the D&CP heading for this purpose, and expects the administration to request adequate funds within the OBO budget for 

such purposes in the fiscal year 2012 request. 

Soft Targets.—The Committee recommends $6,500,000 for security enhancement to soft targets such as overseas schools and residential compounds, which is equal to the budget request. 

EMERGENCIES IN THE DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR SERVICE

(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $10,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 11,000,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 11,000,000 

The Committee recommends $11,000,000 for Emergencies in the 

Diplomatic and Consular Service, which is equal to the budget request, to meet unforeseen emergency requirements as authorized 

by section 4 of the State Department Basic Authorities Act. The 

Committee encourages the Department to prioritize expenditures 

for evacuations and rewards and to minimize the use of this fund 

for travel and representational expenses. 

In addition to the funds appropriated under this heading, the 

Committee authorizes transfer of up to $15,000,000 under the 

D&CP heading for emergency evacuations and rewards, including 

for information leading to the apprehension of Mexican narcotics 

traffickers, which is $5,000,000 above the budget request. 

REPATRIATION LOANS PROGRAM ACCOUNT

(INCLUDING TRANSFER OF FUNDS)

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $1,450,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 1,450,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 1,450,000 

The Committee recommends $1,450,000 for the Repatriation 

Loans Program Account, which is equal to the budget request, to 

support a direct loan program in accordance with the Credit Reform Act which assists United States citizens overseas in dire need. 

PAYMENT TO THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE IN TAIWAN

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $21,174,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 21,420,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 21,420,000 

The Committee recommends $21,420,000 for the American Institute in Taiwan, which is equal to the budget request, to support 

United States political and security interests, provide consular 

services, and promote exchange programs in Taiwan. 
23 

PAYMENT TO THE FOREIGN SERVICE RETIREMENT AND DISABILITY

FUND

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $158,900,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 158,900,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 158,900,000 

The Committee recommends $158,900,000 for the Foreign Service Retirement and Disability Fund, which is equal to the budget 

request, for Department of State and USAID mandatory retirement 

and disability programs. 

INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS

CONTRIBUTIONS TO INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $1,682,500,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 1,595,430,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 1,575,430,000 

The Committee recommends $1,575,430,000 for Contributions to 

International Organizations, which is $20,000,000 below the budget 

request due to exchange rate savings, for the assessed costs of U.S. 

membership in international organizations as authorized by conventions, treaties, or specific acts of Congress. The Committee 

notes that the United States has participated in many international organizations for decades, many of which serve important 

U.S. national interests but some may no longer be cost-effective. 

The Committee directs the Department of State to conduct a rigorous review of all such organizations, and for any which no longer 

merit U.S. contributions to promptly initiate steps to withdraw. 

CONTRIBUTIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL PEACEKEEPING ACTIVITIES

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $2,125,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 2,182,300,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 2,126,382,000 

The Committee recommends $2,126,382,000 for Contributions for 

International Peacekeeping Activities. An additional $55,918,000 is 

included under the PKO heading for a contribution for assessed 

peacekeeping activities in Somalia. 

The Committee recognizes the indispensable contribution to 

international peace and stability provided by U.N. peacekeeping activities, without the participation of U.S. troops. The Committee 

also notes, however, that U.N. peacekeeping missions have often 

suffered from deficiencies, including inadequate equipment to effectively protect civilians, troops without proper training or with a 

history of human rights violations, and troops that have sexually 

abused women and girls while on peacekeeping missions. The 

United Nations, donor countries, and troop-contributing countries 

have a shared responsibility to ensure that troops are qualified and 

properly trained and equipped for the missions for which they are 

deployed. The Committee requires the Secretary of State to certify 

that effective procedures exist to vet prospective U.N. peacekeeping 

troops. 

The Committee directs that funds shall be available for peacekeeping activities unless the Secretary of State determines that 

American manufacturers and suppliers are not being given oppor-
24 

tunities to provide equipment, services, and material for U.N. 

peacekeeping activities equal to those being given to foreign manufacturers and suppliers.

Afghanistan and Pakistan.—The Committee recommends up to $24,815,000 for Pashto and Dari broadcasts targeted toward Afghanistan and northwest Pakistan. 

Broadcast Transmission and Distribution.—The Committee does 

not support closing the Greenville Transmitting Station in North 

Carolina, or the request for expanded FM (including six additional 

FMs for Radio Sawa), digital, and new media efforts. While the 

Committee does support the BBG’s efforts to expand into new technologies, the Committee is concerned that closing Greenville may 

be premature given the continued viability of shortwave in Africa, 

the use of shortwave for broadcasts to Cuba and Latin America, including surge broadcasts to Haiti, as well as Greenville’s capacity 

to provide contingency and backup capabilities to the BBG network 

worldwide. The Committee recommends $650,000 within Engineering and Technical Services to support the upgrade of the Network 

Control Center. 

Internet Programs.—The Committee recognizes the BBG’s efforts 

to expand access to information and communications tools such as 

collaborative media and social networking to Internet users worldwide, including in closed societies subject to monitoring and censor-
27 

ship, and encourages the BBG to evaluate emerging online broadcasting and communication methods to reach these audiences. The 

Committee provides $1,000,000 to support expanded Internet anticensorship efforts, in addition to funds otherwise made available 

for such purposes. 

North Korea.—The Committee recommends not less than 

$8,000,000 for broadcasting into North Korea through RFA Korea 

Service and VOA Korea Service, which is equal to the fiscal year 

2010 level. 

Tibet.—The Committee recommends sufficient funding to continue RFA and VOA Tibetan language services. 

Cuba.—The Committee notes that the joint statement accompanying Public Law 111–117 directed the BBG to submit to the 

Committees on Appropriations within 90 days of enactment of that 

act a multi-year strategic plan for broadcasting to Cuba to include 

an analysis of options for disseminating news and information to 

Cuba and a report on the cost effectiveness of each, and an analysis 

of the program efficiencies and effectiveness that can be achieved 

through shared resources and cost-saving opportunities between 

Radio and TV Marti and the Voice of America. The Committee has 

not received this report and does not support closing the Greenville 

Station, expanding TV Marti’s transmission on DirecTV, or the request included under the Broadcasting Capital Improvements 

heading to expand and renovate the TV Marti studio until a strategy is submitted to the Committee, and the Comptroller General 

has conducted an assessment of the strategic plan. 

Middle East Broadcasting Networks.—The Committee provides 

$114,614,000 for the Middle East Broadcasting Networks, 

$2,848,000 below the request. The Committee is concerned with the 

steadily increasing costs of MBN operations and the sustainability 

of this program. 

REPORT

Revenue from Privatization and Commercial Efforts.—The Committee understands that the BBG is utilizing the authority in current law to collect receipts from advertising and revenue from business ventures and cooperating international organizations. The 

Committee directs the BBG to submit a report within 90 days of 

enactment of this act describing the BBG’s past, current, and 

planned uses of this authority, the revenue generated and receipts 

collected by fiscal year, and the uses of such revenue.

The Committee recommends $6,875,000 for Broadcasting Capital 

Improvements, which is $6,760,000 below the budget request. The 

Committee recommends $3,005,000 for the upgrade of the Network 

Control Center supporting satellite transmission of 85 percent of 

all BBG broadcasts. The Committee understands that this upgrade 

will reduce the risk of broadcast outages and will bring NCC conditions to Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards.

section 214 of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, fiscal years 

1992 and 1993 (22 U.S.C. 2452), to increase educational opportuni-
29 

ties for Israeli Arab students to study and conduct research in the 

United States.

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 23,100,000 

The Committee recommends $23,100,000 for the East-West Center, which is $11,700,000 above the request. The Committee intends $1,650,000 to be used for programs related to APEC, Northeast Asia relations, and democracy and justice. The Committee 

does not support the East-West Center’s proposal to establish satellite offices in the Asia-Pacific region. 

NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR DEMOCRACY

Appropriations, 2010 ............................................................................. $118,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 105,000,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 125,000,000 

The Committee recommends $125,000,000 for the National Endowment for Democracy, which is $20,000,000 above the budget request. 

The Committee recognizes the experience of NED in promoting 

democracy and human rights abroad since the Cold War, and believes that NED should play a larger role in such activities. The 

Committee recommends that additional funding be used to 

strengthen the capacity of civil society organizations that are 

peacefully advocating for democracy and human rights. USAID and 

the Department of State are to coordinate other democracy programs in those countries with NED to avoid duplication of activities. NED should not be precluded from competitively bidding on 

other grant solicitations. 

NED is directed to submit a financial plan not later than 60 days 

after enactment of this act detailing the proposed distribution of 

funds in a manner similar to prior years, to consult with the Committee on any proposed deviation from the plan, and to apportion 

core funds in the traditional and customary fashion among core institutes. 

This grant to the Department of State is a pass-through directly 

to NED, and funds under this heading shall not be subject to prior 

approval by the Department of State and USAID, or to administrative or management surcharges. Minimal expenses, if any, should 

be charged to general Department of State operating expenses. 

The Committee recognizes the limitation of the Department of 

State and USAID to conduct effective democracy promotion programs in challenging political environments, and notes the complications in bilateral relations that often arise from such activities. 

Therefore, the Committee transfers democracy funds made available under the ESF heading to this heading in the following manner: $2,000,000 for Egypt; $2,500,000 for Pakistan; $2,000,000 for 

Cuba; $2,500,000 for North Korea; and $3,500,000 for the DRC. 

The Department of State and USAID are directed to reduce democracy programs in those countries by an equal amount. The Committee recommends that the fiscal year 2012 budget request in-
30 

clude greater utilization of NED for democracy promotion activities 

abroad. 

The Committee recommends $250,000 for programs and activities in Tibet.

The Committee recommends a total of $8,239,000,000 for Global 

Health and Child Survival. 

GLOBAL HEALTH INITIATIVE

The Committee supports the goals of the GHI to coordinate and 

enhance the U.S. Government’s response to global health challenges, particularly in the areas of maternal and child health, nutrition, vulnerable children, family planning and reproductive 

health, HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, global pandemics, and 

other infectious diseases, including neglected tropical diseases. The 

Committee is concerned that the inter-agency cooperation and coordination needed to effectively implement this initiative does not 

yet exist, and directs USAID to work in partnership with other 

Federal agencies, particularly the Department of Health and 

Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as with the WHO and other international bodies, to 

develop effective implementation strategies. 
35 

GHI Strategic Reserve Fund.—The Committee recommends not 

more than $50,000,000 for USAID and $50,000,000 for the Department of State for the GHI Fund, which is $100,000,000 below the 

request. The Committee supports the scale-up of proven and costeffective activities, including enhanced monitoring and evaluation, 

in GHI Plus countries. 

Recruitment of Health Workers.—The Committee is concerned 

with the unethical recruitment of health workers in countries that 

do not have sustainable public health systems. The Committee encourages USAID and the Department of State to support a code of 

conduct for the recruitment of health workers from poorer to 

wealthier countries as part of the GHI, and the WHO Voluntary 

Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Health Personnel.

CHILD SURVIVAL AND MATERNAL HEALTH

The Committee recommends $641,000,000 for child and maternal 

health activities under the GHCS account. The Committee recognizes the critical role that child survival and maternal health programs play in overall global health, and that most deaths of children before the age of 5 and of women from pregnancy-related 

causes could be prevented with low-cost interventions by trained 

health workers. 

Polio.—The Committee recommends $33,100,000 for programs to 

eradicate polio. 
36 

Vaccines and Immunization.—The Committee recommends 

$105,000,000 for a contribution to the GAVI Alliance. The GAVI Alliance provides vaccines for children in the poorest countries, including new vaccines against pneumococcal disease and rotavirus. 

Vulnerable Children.—The Committee recommends $15,000,000 

for programs and activities that address the needs of vulnerable 

children, of which not less than $2,000,000 is for assistance for 

blind children. USAID should administer the programs in a manner that delivers the maximum amount of funds to the field, and 

should consider support for cleft lip and cleft palate surgery programs. 

Orphans.—Despite significant investments of U.S. funds the 

number of orphans worldwide continues to rise. The Committee is 

concerned that this increase is due in part to a lack of focus on 

family preservation, family reunification, kinship, guardianship, 

and domestic and international adoption for reducing the number 

of children living outside of parental care. The Committee directs 

the Special Advisor for Orphans and Vulnerable Children and the 

Special Advisor to the Office of Children’s Issues to submit a report 

within 90 days of enactment of this act detailing how the Department of State and USAID plan to increase efforts to assist developing countries in providing family-based care to orphan children, 

including: (1) a description of the work to date in identifying and 

replicating best practices in providing family based care; (2) current and planned efforts to develop research-based, family-based 

care pilot programs; and (3) a description of the work to date to develop data on the number of children living outside of parental 

care. 

FAMILY PLANNING/REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH

The Committee recommends a total of $700,000,000 from all accounts in this act for family planning and reproductive health programs, including $595,000,000 under the GHCS heading, 

$50,000,000 under the ESF and AEECA headings, and $55,000,000 

for UNFPA. 

Assistance for Voluntary Family Planning.—The Committee directs that funds made available for voluntary family planning shall 

offer a broad range of family planning methods and services. 

Clarification.—The Committee does not continue to carry a general provision specifically regarding funding for abortions and involuntary sterilization (section 7018 of Public Law 111–117), as all 

but the last sentence of that provision was restatement of permanent law (section 104(f) of the FAA). Instead, the Committee includes the last sentence of that provision in section 7034(n) of this 

act. 

HIV/AIDS

The Committee recommends a total of $5,850,000,000 for programs and activities to combat HIV/AIDS, of which $5,500,000,000 

is for the Department of State and $350,000,000 is for USAID. This 

combined total is $141,000,000 above the fiscal year 2010 level. 

Antiretroviral Treatment.—The Committee notes the increasing 

number of patients who qualify for antiretroviral treatment due to 

the November 2009 WHO recommended standards for treatment, 
37 

and directs the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator to re-evaluate implementation costs, including overhead, to achieve the most cost-effective and efficient programs. The Committee recognizes the significant treatment gap in many PEPFAR focus countries and recommends that efficiencies achieved from reduced treatment costs 

be used to provide services to new enrollees seeking access to 

antiretroviral treatment. 

Global Fund.—The Committee recommends not less than 

$800,000,000 for a U.S. contribution to the Global Fund to Fight 

AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which is $50,000,000 above the 

fiscal year 2010 level. 

Mother-to-child Transmission.—The Committee continues to support expansion of access to programs that prevent mother-to-child 

transmission of HIV. 

PEPFAR Partnership Frameworks.—The Committee welcomes 

the emphasis in PEPFAR’s 5-year strategy on addressing stigma 

and discrimination against most-at-risk populations and violations 

of the rights of women, and directs OGAC to address the needs for 

legal and policy reform and the enforcement of such policies in 

Partnership Frameworks, Partnership Framework Implementation 

Plans, and Country Operational Plans. 

The Committee also directs OGAC to ensure civil society is fully 

engaged in developing these frameworks and plans, including mostat-risk populations and women’s organizations. The Committee directs OGAC to consult with the Committee on these efforts. 

Reimbursements.—The Committee understands OGAC has 

agreed to provide USAID reimbursements to cover direct and indirect PEPFAR implementation costs incurred both at headquarters 

and in the field, and expects OGAC and USAID to consult with the 

Committee regarding fiscal year 2011 reimbursement levels in a 

timely manner. 

UNAIDS.—The Committee provides $45,100,000 for a U.S. contribution to UNAIDS. 

INFECTIOUS DISEASES

Influenza Pandemic Preparedness and Response.—The Committee recommends $67,500,000 to prevent the spread of Avian Influenza and the H1N1 virus. 

Malaria.—The Committee recommends $635,500,000 for programs to combat malaria. The Committee directs that these funds 

be made available in accordance with country strategic plans incorporating best public health practices including insecticide-treated 

bed nets, artemisinin combination therapies, and indoor residual 

spraying, and with significant support for purchase of commodities 

and equipment. USAID is encouraged to increase its investment in 

public-private partnerships involved in research, development, access, and delivery of anti-malarial medications. 

The Committee is aware of the widespread prevalence of malaria 

in Burma, and the lack of access to quality and affordable diagnosis and treatment due to the failure of the SPDC to meet the 

basic needs of the Burmese people. Consistent with U.S. policy objectives, the Committee directs USAID to provide not less than 

$500,000, in addition to other funds made available for Burma 

under the GHCS heading, for anti-malaria programs through inter-
38 

national NGOs in Burma with expertise in diagnosis and treatment, and to consult with the Committee on the proposed use of 

funds. 

Neglected Tropical Diseases.—The Committee recommends 

$100,000,000 for programs and activities to continue and expand 

support for the ongoing USAID integrated response program for 

NTDs, including intestinal parasites, schistosomiasis, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis, trachoma, soil transmitted helminthes, and 

leprosy. The Committee recognizes the burden NTDs have on mainly poor and rural populations, and continues to support public-private partnerships that promote research and development. The 

Committee requests to be consulted prior to the obligation of funds, 

including country-specific allocations. 

Other Infectious Diseases.—The Committee recommends not less 

than $5,000,000 to support programs in infectious disease surveillance and response and to combat anti-microbial resistance. 

Tuberculosis.—The Committee recommends a total of 

$230,000,000 for programs to combat TB. The Committee supports 

the development of a new, safe, effective and affordable vaccine to 

protect against all strains of TB, including MDR or XDR. USAID 

should consider supporting clinical trials for TB vaccines in developing countries. 

NUTRITION

The Committee recommends $100,000,000 for nutrition programs, of which not less than $33,000,000 is provided for micronutrients. Funding for nutrition should include not less than 

$23,000,000 for Vitamin A. 

HIV/AIDS and Nutrition.—The Committee notes that nutrition 

plays an important part in maintaining the quality of life for people affected by HIV/AIDS and intends that funds under this account be used for programs that address the development and implementation of nutrition support, guidelines, and care services for 

people living with HIV/AIDS as well as the promotion of optimal 

infant feeding practices to prevent maternal to child transmission. 

Iodine Deficiency Disorder.—The Committee recommends not less 

than $2,000,000 for the USAID/UNICEF IDD program. Funds provided through the USAID partnership are preventing the mental 

retardation of millions of children through programs to iodize salt. 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Microbicides.—The Committee is encouraged by recent progress 

in the development of microbicides to prevent HIV, and recommends $51,000,000 for research on and development of 

microbicides to prevent HIV/AIDS. The Committee encourages 

USAID to increase investment in microbicide research, including 

‘‘next generation’’ ARV-based microbicides. 

REPORT

Health Research and Development.—The Committee directs 

USAID to submit a report not later than 45 days after enactment 

of this act on health-related research and development within the 

GHI.

PROGRAMS

AGRICULTURE AND FOOD SECURITY

The Committee recommends $1,300,000,000 for the Global Hunger and Food Security initiative (Feed the Future) from all accounts in this act, which is $344,023,000 below the budget request. 

The Committee supports the administration’s efforts to significantly increase the U.S. response to agricultural and food security 

needs in the poorest countries. 

The Committee is concerned with the delay in naming a coordinator for global food security to lead the Feed the Future initiative 

and recommends that the coordinator be located at USAID as the 

lead agency in implementing the initiative. 

Biotechnology Research.—The Committee recommends 

$35,000,000 for plant biotechnology research and development to 

harness global expertise to improve food security and incomes in 

Africa and Asia. 

Collaborative Research Support Programs.—The Committee recommends not less than $35,000,000 for CRSPs. 

Global Crop Diversity Trust.—The Committee recommends 

$12,000,000 for a U.S. contribution to the Global Crop Diversity 

Trust’s endowment, which seeks to ensure the viability of agriculture worldwide by conserving and making available collections 

of crop diversity. 

Land Grant Institutions.—The Committee supports the role of 

land grant institutions in agriculture research to assist developing 

countries in improving agricultural productivity and strengthening 

trade links with the United States, and to enhance food sustainability globally. 

Nutrition.—The Committee recognizes the importance of nutrition programs as part of the Feed the Future initiative, and notes 

that not less than $100,000,000 was provided under the GHCS 

heading for nutrition activities as part of the Global Health and 

Feed the Future initiatives. 

PVOs and Cooperatives.—The Committee directs the USAID Administrator to make grants and cooperative agreements available 

for PVOs and cooperatives to carry out food security, agriculture, 
41 

and rural development programs that meet the objectives of section 

103(a)(1) of the FAA. 

The Committee directs USAID to focus more of its agriculture 

and rural development resources on programs that improve infrastructure, employment opportunities and access to services in poor, 

rural communities and increase the productivity and incomes of agricultural and livestock producers in those areas. 

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

Cooperative Development Program.—The Committee has long recognized the important role that U.S. cooperatives and credit unions 

play in overseas programs as a means to lift low income people out 

of poverty by mobilizing equity and savings for community-based 

economic growth. The Committee provides $12,000,000 for USAID’s 

Cooperative Development Program within the Office of Private and 

Voluntary Cooperation. 

Microenterprise and Microfinance Development Programs.—The 

Committee recommends $265,000,000 in this act for microfinance 

and microenterprise development programs for the poor, especially 

women. The Committee encourages investment in a variety of financial services that allow the poor to save, borrow, and access insurance, remittances, and other key services. The Committee directs USAID to target half of all microfinance and microenterprise 

funds to the very poor, and increase outreach to women who are 

currently without financial services. 

The Committee is concerned with the decline in microfinance assistance in Africa and directs USAID to increase its support. 

The Committee encourages increased coordination between the 

activities of USAID’s Office of Microenterprise Development and 

other USAID and Department of State programs that include 

microfinance and microenterprise activities. 

EDUCATION

Basic Education.—The Committee recommends $845,000,000 in 

this act for basic education programs, including programs aimed at 

improving early childhood development, primary and secondary 

education, teacher training and basic skills training for adults and 

out of school youth. The Committee recommends up to $20,000,000 for the Education 

for All Fast Track Initiative at the World Bank, subject to prior 

consultation by USAID and the Department of State with the Committee. 

The Committee is aware that many children in Haiti do not attend school and that the earthquake destroyed or damaged many 

schools. The Committee recommends additional funding for school 

construction and equipment and other assistance for children’s education in Haiti. 

Higher Education.—The Committee recommends $245,000,000 in 

this act for higher education programs, including not less than 

$25,000,000 for such programs in Africa of which $15,000,000 is for 

partnerships between higher education institutions in Africa and 

the United States. Higher education partnerships provide training 

for faculty and staff, and strengthened institutional management 

such as revised administrative procedures, new degree programs, 
42 

expanded curricula, and research opportunities. Partnerships 

should be funded on an open, competitive basis, and should focus 

on such fields as agriculture, environment and natural resources, 

engineering, science and technology, health, education and teacher 

training, public administration, and business management and economics. 

American Schools and Hospitals Abroad Program.—The Committee continues to recognize the contributions to U.S. foreign policy by institutions funded by the ASHA program. The Committee 

expects USAID to allocate sufficient sums to administer the ASHA 

program from funds provided for operating expenses, so it will not 

be necessary to expend program funds for administrative purposes. 

The Committee recommends $23,500,000 for the ASHA program 

in fiscal year 2011, with the expectation that USAID will allocate 

funds under similar terms and conditions as in prior fiscal years. 

The Committee underscores that such assistance is not for permanent budget support to ASHA recipients, and that proposals shall 

be considered in full and open competition, and in accordance with 

all applicable rules and regulations. 

The Committee recommends that priority be given to institutions 

which demonstrate a need and commitment to private fundraising 

to match Government support, and to newer applicants that demonstrate the best of American ideas and practices in the regions 

they serve. The Committee recommends USAID consider proposals 

from the following organizations, among others: American University of Beirut; American Community School, Beirut; American University in Kosovo; EARTH University in Costa Rica; Feinberg 

Graduate School of the Weizmann Institute of Science; Hadassah 

Medical Organization; Israel Center for Excellence through Education; Johns Hopkins University’s Centers in Nanjing, China and 

Bologna, Italy; Lebanese American University; Robert College; the 

American University of Armenia; and Uganda Cancer Institute. 

CLIMATE CHANGE AND ENVIRONMENT PROGRAMS

The Committee recognizes the challenges posed by global warming and the urgent need to help developing countries reduce carbon 

emissions; develop clean energy and increase energy efficiency; 

adapt to rising temperatures, water and food scarcity, and rising 

sea levels; protect forests and other biodiversity; and implement 

policies for the transparent and sustainable use of natural resources. The Committee recommends a total of $1,450,500,000 in 

this act for climate change and environment programs funded 

through USAID, the Department of State, and the Department of 

the Treasury, of which $286,500,000 is for adaptation programs, 

$656,800,000 is for clean energy, and $507,200,000 is for sustainable landscapes and biodiversity programs. 

Funds are allocated in the following table and subject to the requirements of section 7019 of this act:

Adaptation.—The Committee provides funding to support programs and activities to assist developing countries adapt to climate 

change hazards, including decreases in agricultural productivity, 

water scarcity, and rising sea levels. 

Clean Energy.—The Committee intends that funds for clean energy programs under title III of this act shall be used only to support programs that promote the sustainable use of renewable energy technologies and energy efficiency technologies, carbon sequestration, and carbon accounting. The primary objective of these programs should be to reduce, mitigate, and/or sequester emissions of 

greenhouse gases. 

Sustainable Landscapes and Biodiversity.—The Committee recommends not less than $150,000,000 for USAID’s sustainable landscapes programs to support REDD. The Committee also supports 

programs to protect tropical forests and other biodiversity, and recommends not less than $215,200,000 including $35,000,000 for 

USAID’s conservation programs in the Amazon of which 

$20,000,000 is for the Initiative for Conservation in the Andean 

Amazon and $15,000,000 is for the Brazilian Amazon. Of this 

amount, the Committee intends that $10,000,000 be used to 

strengthen the capacity of indigenous organizations which play a 

key role in protecting tropical forests and biodiversity. The Committee provides $19,000,000 for the CBFP, of which $9,000,000 is 

for the USFWS’s programs in central Africa including to protect 

great apes. 

The Committee is concerned with the continuing rapid rates of 

deforestation and degradation, particularly due to industrial-scale 

logging and the illegal harvesting of timber in tropical forests, and 

includes language in this act specifying the uses of funds for tropical forest programs. The Committee supports continued funding 

for USAID’s programs to protect the habitat of orangutans in Borneo and Sumatra, and for USAID’s program to protect wildlife in 

the Boma Jonglei area of Southern Sudan. Funds may also be used 

for a U.S. contribution to the Galapagos Invasive Species Fund. 

The Committee is aware that Indonesia is among the world’s 

largest contributors of carbon emissions due to the destruction of 

peat forests, particularly for palm oil plantations. The Committee 

directs USAID to consult with the Committee within 45 days after 

enactment of this act on the use of REDD funding to help reduce 

deforestation in Indonesia. 

The Committee also recommends that funding under this heading be used to protect endangered forests, wildlife, and water ecosystems through other international programs administered by the 

USFS (forest and wildlife conservation) and the USFWS (multilateral species and migratory bird conservation). The Committee also 

supports funding for international programs of the NPS (national 

park management) and NOAA (coral reefs and marine-protected 

areas). 

Oceans.—The Committee is aware that CO2 emissions from burning fossil fuels and deforestation is changing the acidity of the 

ocean in ways that pose grave threats to fish and other ocean wildlife. The Committee expects the Departments of State and Treasury to coordinate with NOAA on the uses of funds for climate 

change programs. 
45 

GLOBAL PROGRAMS

Child Marriage.—The Committee recognizes that child marriage 

undermines investments in programs that seek to improve education, health, and the economic and legal status for girls and 

women in developing countries. The Committee directs USAID to 

consider the prevalence of child marriage when developing its country plans, and recommends that the Department of State include 

information regarding child marriage, as appropriate, in its annual 

Country Reports on Human Rights Practices. 

Human Trafficking.—The Committee urges the Secretary of 

State and the USAID Administrator to continue efforts to combat 

human trafficking and slavery, particularly through social, educational, and economic development programs. The Committee recommends $12,000,000 for these activities under the ESF heading. 

An additional $20,400,000 is provided under the INCLE heading, 

and $6,500,000 under the DA heading. 

The Committee is aware that Haiti’s most common manifestation 

of modern slavery is child domestic servitude, known as restaveks, 

of which there were an estimated 225,000 before the earthquake. 

The Committee recommends that USAID, the Department of State, 

and the Department of Labor, work with the Government of Haiti 

to develop a strategy to address the plight of current and former 

restaveks, including the development of modern anti-trafficking 

laws and enforcement capability, and programs to achieve the 

elimination of the worst forms of child labor. 

Natural Resource Transparency.—The Committee is concerned 

with corrupt practices in the allocation of natural resource extraction licenses and contracts and in the uses of revenues from such 

extraction, particularly in Angola, Cambodia, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Zimbabwe. Funds should be used to strengthen the 

capacity of civil society organizations and to improve public oversight. The Committee directs USAID to include benchmarks for effective natural resource management, transparency, and accountability in resource-rich countries receiving USAID assistance. 

These benchmarks should be publicly available on the USAID Web 

site for each country. 

Patrick Leahy War Victims Fund.—The Committee provides 

$14,000,000 for the LWVF, administered by USAID, which assists 

persons who are severely disabled as a result of armed conflict. 

Trade Capacity Building.—The Committee recommends not less 

than $10,000,000 under the DA heading and not less than 

$10,000,000 under the ESF heading for labor and environmental 

capacity building activities relating to the free trade agreements 

with countries of Central America, Peru, and the Dominican Republic. 

University Programs.—The Committee recommends the Department of State and USAID consider proposals from the following institutions, among others, through a transparent and competitive 

process: University of Iowa; University of South Carolina; Temple 

University School of Law; Texas A&M University, College Station; 

and University of Montana. 

Victims of Torture.—The Committee recommends $13,000,000 for 

programs and activities that address the needs of victims of torture 
46 

and victims of trauma resulting from violent conflict. The Committee recommends support for centers for victims of torture that 

provide services consistent with the goals of Public Law 106–87. An 

additional $7,100,000 is recommended for the U.N. Voluntary Fund 

for Victims of Torture under the IO&P account. 

Water.—The Committee recommends not less than $315,000,000 

in this act for water sanitation and supply projects pursuant to 

Public Law 109–121. The Committee again directs relevant USAID 

offices and bureaus involved in water-related programs to coordinate on a regular basis. 

The Committee recommends that USAID expand its programs to 

improve access to clean drinking water through household water 

treatment and hygiene programs in an effort to reduce the high 

percentage of child morbidity and mortality due to waterborne illnesses. The Committee also recommends funding for clean water 

technology programs that offer safe, affordable drinking water to 

vulnerable populations around the world. 

Women’s Programs.—The Committee supports programs which 

directly enhance economic opportunities for very poor, poor and 

low-income women in developing countries, including to increase 

women-owned business development; property rights for women; 

women’s access to financial services; women’s ability to benefit 

from global trade; and improve women’s employment benefits and 

conditions. Funds should also be used to provide technical assistance and capacity building for women’s organizations. 

COUNTRIES

Angola.—The Committee recommends that funds be made available to support civil society organizations and independent media 

in Angola. 

Cambodia.—The Committee directs that assistance for the Government of Cambodia prioritize institutional capacity-building to 

promote good governance, transparency, and accountability in the 

management of natural resources. USAID should support an independent review of existing natural resource concessions in Cambodia, and technical assistance to help establish effective procedures to ensure transparency in the allocation and ownership of future concessions. 

Ecuador.—The Committee is concerned with the extensive oil 

contamination of land and water in northeastern Ecuador which 

poses grave health risks for the local population. The Committee 

directs that not less than $500,000 be made available for rainwater 

collection or other access to potable water for local residents, and 

to assist the Ministry of Health in providing local diagnosis and 

treatment for chronic illnesses resulting from such contamination. 

Funds should also be made available to assist the Government of 

Ecuador in identifying best practices for the remediation of oil-contaminated land and water and environmentally safe petroleum production. 

El Salvador.—The Committee is aware of the courageous efforts 

of the Salvadoran National Police Inspector General’s Office to 

combat corruption, and recommends not less than $200,000 to improve the capacity of that office. 
47 

Guatemala.—The Committee provides $1,500,000 for conservation and related programs, including governance and law enforcement, of the Department of the Interior for continued support of a 

biodiversity and archaeological conservation strategy for Guatemala’s Maya Biosphere Reserve. The Committee intends these activities to be carried out in coordination with USAID and other 

U.S. Embassy activities and with natural resource conservation 

and border control efforts in Mexico and Belize. 

Indonesia.—The Committee recommends $142,886,000 for assistance for Indonesia, which is equal to the budget request, of which 

not less than $250,000 should be made available for grants for capacity building of Indonesian human rights organizations, including in Papua, and not less than $500,000 should be made available 

for USFS REDD-related programs. 

Nepal.—The Committee notes the increasing environmental degradation of the Himalayan watersheds and recommends $200,000 

to support Nepalese environmental organizations working on these 

issues. 

PRC.—The Committee recommends $25,000,000 for development 

cooperation, environment, governance, rule of law, and disaster 

preparedness programs in the PRC, and continues restrictions relating to the export of satellites and prohibitions on assistance to 

the People’s Liberation Army. 

Senegal.—The Committee is aware that former Chadian President Hissene Habre is awaiting trial in Senegal for crimes against 

humanity and torture. The Committee recommends a U.S. contribution of $2,000,000 for the tribunal, if a reasonable budget is 

agreed to and the Government of Senegal demonstrates a commitment to move forward with the investigation and prosecution. 

South Africa.—The Committee recommends not less than 

$5,000,000 for teacher training programs in South Africa. 

Thailand.—The Committee recommends $6,151,000 for assistance for Thailand, which is equal to the budget request. 

Uganda.—The Committee remains concerned with the prospects 

for free and fair elections in Uganda in 2011. The Committee directs the Secretary of State to include in the election monitoring reports required by the joint statement accompanying division F of 

Public Law 111–117, an evaluation of the preparations for and conduct and results of the elections, including a determination of 

whether the elections were free and fair. Such a determination 

should consider the findings of international election monitoring 

observation missions, such as those conducted by the National 

Democratic Institute and the International Republican Institute, 

the European Union, and credible nonpartisan Ugandan election 

observation organizations. 

The Committee is concerned that despite reconstruction and development efforts in northern Uganda, there has been little 

progress in addressing political grievances and promoting reconciliation. The Committee recommends that of the funds provided 

under this heading, up to $10,000,000 should be used to support efforts by the people of northern Uganda and the Government of 

Uganda to advance efforts to promote transitional justice and reconciliation on national and local levels. 
48 

Zimbabwe.—The Committee remains concerned with the political 

and economic situation in Zimbabwe that hampers growth, education, democracy, and development. The Committee notes that 

school closings and teacher layoffs have resulted in an increase in 

out-of-school children, and recommends $5,000,000 for basic education programs in Zimbabwe, including through the Ministry of 

Education. 

REPORTS

Central America.—The Committee remains concerned with the 

lack of due process and a transparent judiciary in Nicaragua and 

Honduras. The Secretary of State is directed to continue to consult 

with the Committee on the Department of State’s efforts to effectuate due process with respect to claims against American companies in these countries. 

Gender-based Violence.—The Committee directs the Secretary of 

State and the USAID Administrator to submit a report to the Committee within 90 days of enactment of this act, detailing funds provided in the previous 12 months under the IDA, MRA, INCLE, and 

PKO headings for programs and activities related to the prevention 

of and response to gender-based violence.

COUNTRY ISSUES

Burma.—The Committee notes with concern continued reports of 

Burma’s efforts to establish a nuclear program and cooperate with 

North Korea. The Committee condemns ongoing human rights violations committed by the SPDC against the people of Burma, including ethnic groups, democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, and all 

prisoners of conscience. The Committee regrets that conditions for 

credible and competitive elections do not exist in Burma today. 

The Committee expects that funds appropriated for assistance for 

Burma shall be made available for humanitarian, income generation, agriculture, and other programs to improve the lives of the 

Burmese people, and should be consistent with the principles and 

goals of the National League for Democracy in Burma including the 

promotion of human rights and freedom and improving the welfare 

of the people of Burma. 

The Committee recommends that funds provided for Burma for 

programs along the Thai-Burma border include the continuation of 

journalism and other media activities. 

Cambodia.—The Committee remains concerned with corruption 

and human rights violations in Cambodia, and continues to recognize the vital role civil society and the democratic opposition play 

in furthering that country’s democratic development. The Committee continues the certification requirement for a United States 

contribution to the Khmer Rouge tribunal on credible steps being 
52 

taken by the United Nations and Government of Cambodia to address corruption and mismanagement issues. 

The Committee remains concerned with the professionalism of 

the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces, and expects the administration to conduct effective vetting prior to initiating any programs. 

Patronage by Cambodian businesses of RCAF units serves to further undermine the legitimacy of Cambodia’s leadership, particularly within the RCAF itself. 

Cyprus.—The Committee recognizes the many challenges in resolving the crisis in Cyprus, and continues support for scholarships, 

bicommunal projects, and measures aimed at reunification, reducing tension and promoting peace and cooperation. The Committee 

is aware of concerns that some projects on Cyprus may have been 

funded without advance consultation with the Government of Cyprus and recommends that such consultation occur whenever practicable in the interest of transparency in the allocation of funds. 

The Committee recommends $11,000,000 for assistance for Cyprus, 

and intends to review the effectiveness of programs, absent meaningful progress in negotiations between the parties. The Committee 

intends that implementing organizations and the specific nature of 

such assistance shall not be subject to the prior approval of any foreign government. 

Democratic Republic of the Congo.—The Committee recommends 

$10,000,000 to help demilitarize the mining sector in eastern DRC 

and to build local capacity for oversight and regulation. Assistance 

should focus on removing military units to barracks away from 

mining areas; strengthening the system of military tribunals; 

transparency in the disbursement of salaries to soldiers; and the 

introduction of military mobile units to investigate alleged violations of human rights. Funds should also be used to support joint 

inspections of mineral consignments by police and customs in coordination with the United Nations; increased capacity of customs 

authorities to control the export of minerals (including columbitetantalite, cassiterite, wolframite, and gold); and increased capacity 

of the mining police to provide security and enforce the law in mining areas, along transportation routes and at trading sites. The 

Committee also urges the Department of State to support efforts by 

the Government of the DRC to prosecute those involved in financing warring parties in eastern DRC through the mineral trade, and 

to work with other relevant U.S. agencies to ensure that American 

businesses are informed of the connection between the mineral 

trade in the DRC and armed conflict, including sexual and genderbased violence. 

Egypt.—The Committee provides $100,000 under USAID’s Middle East Regional Program for USFS activities in Egypt. 

Haiti.—The Committee recommends $139,000,000 under this 

heading for assistance for Haiti. The Committee notes that pledges 

of many billions of dollars in assistance for Haiti were made by the 

United States and other donor countries after the January 2010 

earthquake, and many lives were saved in the emergency relief response including by many American volunteers. However, the situation remains dire, hundreds of thousands of people languish in 

makeshift camps where violence, particularly attacks against 

women and girls, is increasingly common. Immense amounts of 
53 

rubble continues to choke streets and prevent rebuilding, yet far 

too little is being done to remove it. Progress in moving displaced 

people to more secure housing has also been slow, and the Government of Haiti has been indecisive. The Committee is aware that a 

culture of dependency, coupled with a long history of corruption 

and neglect on the part of successive Haitian governments, as well 

as poorly designed and implemented donor assistance programs, 

have contributed to Haiti’s plight. The Committee hopes that greater progress can be made in the coming months so Haiti can overcome this catastrophe and its people can have hope for a better future. The Committee discussed its views on the post-earthquake 

situation in greater detail in Senate report 111–188. The Committee recommends up to $2,000,000 for technical assistance to improve the production and distribution of electricity in 

Haiti, and to strengthen the institutional capacity to manage the 

electricity sector. The Committee encourages the Department of 

State to collaborate with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of 

Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability on energy-related work 

in Haiti. 

The Committee directs that the surge in attacks against women 

and girls in IDP camps be addressed as an urgent priority. The 

Committee further directs that gender issues, and the participation 

of women, be incorporated into the design, implementation, and 

oversight of all assistance programs in Haiti. 

The Committee supports continued funding for reforestation and 

other restoration of Haiti’s key watersheds, in accordance with 

USAID’s April 2007 report ‘‘Environmental Vulnerability in Haiti’’. 

The Committee also supports continued funding for medical, rehabilitation, psycho-social, vocational, and other programs to assist 

Haitians with disabilities, particularly those who lost limbs as a result of the earthquake. 

The Committee recommends that USAID work with the NPS to 

help the Government of Haiti develop a long-term management 

plan to preserve the Citadel and prevent its degradation from tourism. 

Lebanon.—The Committee provides $12,000,000 for scholarships 

for Lebanese students with high need to attend educational institutions in Lebanon that meet standards similar to those required for 

American accreditation. The institutions, students and their families are encouraged to meet as much of the cost of the education 

as possible in order to share the commitment to the future of Lebanon, to maximize the number of students who are assisted, and 

to minimize the cost per student to the American taxpayer. All 

Lebanese students should be eligible for scholarships based on 

need, academic record, and potential to contribute to the long-term 

political, economic, and social development of Lebanon. 

The Committee provides $500,000 for continued support for 

USFS forest and biodiversity conservation programs in Lebanon. 

Liberia.—The Committee urges the Department of State and 

USAID to prioritize good governance and transparency in the Liberian forest sector, including special attention to Liberia’s performance under the EITI, the independence of the General Auditing 

Commission, and support for civil society organizations to monitor 

logging operations and the forestry reform process. 
54 

The Committee further urges USAID to support the Government 

of Liberia and civil society in developing a comprehensive natural 

resource management strategy to include mapping current natural 

resources and competing land uses, evaluating the best use of natural resources for the benefit of the country and its citizens, and 

applying effective standards of social, environmental, and human 

rights protections. The strategy should be developed in a transparent manner with the participation of civil society organizations 

and should consider the social, environmental and economic implications of the utilization of resources. 

Nepal.—The Committee provides $35,000,000 for assistance for 

Nepal, including for rehabilitation and reintegration of former combatants and to support capacity building of Nepali civil society organizations. 

North Korea.—The Committee continues support for programs to 

promote democracy and human rights in North Korea, as authorized by Public Law 110–346, to include exchanges. 

Southern Sudan.—The Committee directs the Department of 

State, in consultation with USAID, to prioritize programs in Sudan 

that implement the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, including 

support for local governance, transparency and accountability of oil 

revenues, judicial strengthening, law enforcement professionalism 

and respect for human rights, and reintegration of former combatants. The Committee is particularly concerned that the CPA does 

not provide adequate transparency within the oil sector, and urges 

the Department of State to seek a transparent and independent 

audit mechanism in any future oil revenue-sharing agreements in 

Sudan. 

Philippines.—The Committee recommends a portion of ESF 

funds to support conflict resolution activities in Mindanao and to 

expand judicial training programs. 

Timor-Leste.—The Committee recommends not less than 

$3,000,000 under this heading for assistance for Timor-Leste, of 

which $1,000,000 is for democracy programs and activities and 

$2,000,000 is for higher education scholarships. 

Thailand.—The Committee recommends $2,500,000 for assistance for conflict resolution and development programs in southern 

Thailand. 

Tibet.—The Committee recommends $7,500,000 for activities implemented by NGOs which preserve cultural traditions and promote sustainable development and environmental conservation in 

Tibetan communities in the Tibetan Autonomous Region and in 

other Tibetan communities in China. The Committee intends these 

funds to be awarded competitively to multiple grantees. 

Somalia.—The Committee recommends $25,818,000 for assistance for Somalia, which is equal to the budget request, and recognizes the regional threats emanating from that failed state and its 

extremists groups, including the recent World Cup attack in Uganda by Al-Shabab. 

Tunisia.—The Committee recommends $2,000,000 for economic 

development programs and activities in southern Tunisia, and to 

promote respect for human rights. 

Yemen.—The Committee recommends $37,000,000 under this 

heading for Yemen, which is $3,000,000 above the budget request, 
55 

and emphasizes the need to increase primary school enrollment, 

particularly of girls. The Committee encourages the Department of 

State to consider conditioning assistance for the Government of 

Yemen in order to obtain its full support on shared objectives and 

to ensure the effectiveness of programs and reduce corruption. The 

Department is to consult with the Committee on this matter. 

Vietnam.—The Committee provides $15,000,000 for continued environmental remediation of dioxin-contamination at the Da Nang 

Airport and related health/disability activities, including through 

Vietnamese institutions and organizations. The Committee directs 

USAID, in consultation with the Department of State, the Government of Vietnam, and other interested parties, to develop, within 

180 days after enactment of this act, a multi-year plan for Agent 

Orange activities in Vietnam and urges the administration to include funding in future budget requests to support it. USAID is to 

consult with the Committee prior to the obligation of funds. 

West Bank and Gaza.—The Committee continues current law restrictions on assistance for the West Bank and Gaza, as contained 

in Public Law 111–8 and Public Law 111–32. 

GLOBAL PROGRAMS

Anti-kleptocracy.—The Committee recommends $500,000 to 

strengthen the Department of State’s implementation of the National Strategy to Internationalize Efforts Against Kleptocracy and 

Presidential Proclamation 7750, including to coordinate all U.S. 

Government efforts to combat kleptocracy. 

Conflict Diamonds.—The Committee recommends $3,000,000 to 

implement the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme, including 

by strengthening the role and capacity of civil society groups in the 

Kimberley Process. Of this amount, $500,000 is for expenses related to U.S. participation as Vice-Chair of the Kimberley Process 

in fiscal year 2011. 

The Committee recommends assistance for Rwanda and Uganda 

to strengthen border controls with the DRC to help stem the flow 

of conflict minerals. 

Disability Programs.—The Committee recommends $5,000,000 

for disability programs, of which $2,500,000 should be made available generally for programs and activities administered by USAID 

missions to address the needs and protect and promote the rights 

of people with disabilities in developing countries, and $1,500,000 

should be used to support and promote centers for independent living in developing countries that have initiated such efforts and are 

working in partnership with organizations or individuals that have 

significant experience in this area. In addition, the Committee recommends $1,000,000 to develop, support, and strengthen sports 

programs for people with disabilities in developing countries. The 

Committee recommends continuation of the current practice that at 

least 25 percent of USAID Mission funds for disability programs be 

dispersed in small grants. 

Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative.—The Committee 

recommends $5,000,000 to support the EITI, including to strengthen the capacity of civil society organizations to participate in the

Forensic Assistance.—The Committee provides $1,500,000 to support programs in forensic anthropology in countries of Central and 

South America where internal armed conflicts resulted in large 

numbers of human remains that have yet to be exhumed and/or 

identified. These funds are to be administered by DRL. 

Global Engagement.—The Committee supports strengthened U.S. 

collaboration with Muslim-majority countries, including in Southeast Asia, to promote job creation and entrepreneurship, scientific 

and technological capacity, and enhance human development, and 

provides $17,000,000 under the D&CP heading for exchanges and 

scholarships and $23,000,000 under this heading for other GE initiative programs. The Committee is concerned with the breadth of

and effective programs in target countries. Any funds provided to 

support activities with U.S. academic institutions shall be subject 

to full and open competition, and in accordance with all applicable 

rules and regulations.

$25,500,000 for reconciliation programs and activities which bring 

together and facilitate direct communication between individuals of 

different ethnic, religious and political backgrounds in countries affected by civil strife and war, of which $10,500,000 is for such programs and activities in the Middle East region. Of this amount, 

$15,500,000 is provided under this heading, and $10,000,000 is provided under the DA heading. This global program seeks to promote 

understanding, mutual respect, and reconciliation through the active participation, dialogue and problem solving of members of opposing groups. The Committee intends that responsibility for decisions on the uses of such funds be made at the mission level. 

Wheelchairs.—The Committee recommends $5,000,000 for wheelchair programs in developing countries, which should be allocated

Azerbaijan.—The Committee remains concerned with the repression of independent journalists in Azerbaijan. The Committee directs the Secretary of State to seek improvements in freedom of expression in connection with U.S. assistance for the central Government of Azerbaijan. 

North Caucasus.—The Committee notes that political and ethnic 

violence continue to cause suffering and forced displacement in the 

North Caucasus, and recommends not less than $8,500,000 to support USAID programs. The Committee intends funds to be used for 

immediate and long-term needs of conflict-affected populations, and 

requests to be consulted on the proposed uses of funds.

than $210,000 of funds provided to the OSCE be made available for 

such purposes. 

Roma.—The Committee remains concerned with reports of discrimination and violence against Roma in some European coun-
60 

tries. The Committee recommends assistance for organizations 

working to protect Roma and their culture. 

Russia.—The Committee supports the administration’s efforts to 

improve bilateral relations with Russia, but believes that this 

should not come at the expense of programs and activities with 

other countries or organizations in the region, particularly those 

that promote democracy and respect for the rule of law. The Committee provides $500,000 for continued support for 

USFS wild salmon and tiger conservation programs in Russia. 

Turkmenistan.—The Committee urges the Department of State 

and USAID to support civil society organizations in Turkmenistan, 

which face onerous registration and freedom of association laws,

publication of an annual budget. 

The Committee is concerned with the detention of human rights 

defenders, journalists, and political dissidents in Turkmenistan, including members of the Turkmenistan Helsinki Foundation, and

to peaceful expression and association.

management programs in Ukraine.

minority rights and the rule of law.

the following: 

Burma.—The Committee remains concerned with refugees and 

IDPs in Burma and Thailand, and recommends the Secretary of 

State provide assistance to meet these needs in a timely manner. 

The Department of State is encouraged to develop programs to 

address the security and assistance needs of the Rohingya minority 

from Burma in countries where they seek refuge, especially Bangladesh. Such programs should consider the immediate and longterm needs of the Rohingya and host populations. 

Colombia.—The Committee recommends additional assistance for 

Colombian IDPs and refugees, and provides for the transfer of 

$9,000,000 from the ESF heading for this purpose. 

Eritrea.—The Committee directs the Department of State to 

work with UNHCR and other international organizations to assess 

durable solutions for Eritrean refugees in eastern Sudan, including

assistance to ensure expeditious processing and to meet ongoing 

humanitarian needs of Iraqis in neighboring countries.

have been repatriated, in some cases involuntarily, from Thailand 

back to Laos, and urges the Secretary of State to work with the 

Government of Laos to ensure regular international access to all

host countries. The Committee further expects the Department to 

work with UNHCR and other international partners and governments to seek durable solutions for Somali refugees. 

Tibetan Refugees.—The Committee is concerned with recent actions by the Government of Nepal to prevent safe passage for Tibetan refugees, including reports that some fleeing Tibetans have 

been turned over to Chinese border authorities. The Committee 

urges the Government of Nepal to reaffirm its long tradition of permitting Tibetans to safely transit Nepal, and continues to support 

assistance for these refugees as well as Tibetans who have resettled in India. 

Uganda.—The Committee recommends increased assistance for 

persons displaced by violence perpetrated by the Lord’s Resistance 

Army in northern Uganda.

sea levels. The Secretary is to submit a report to the Committee

Committee prior to making any decision to open, close, significantly 
63 

reduce, or suspend a domestic or overseas office or country program. 

The Committee commends the comprehensive assessment of the 

Peace Corps and supports many of its recommendations, including 

to establish new criteria for the placement of volunteers which 

should reflect current U.S. national interests and budget pressures; 

focus resources in such key areas as health, agriculture/food security, and education; and improve the recruitment and selection 

process to attract a wide diversity of highly and appropriately 

skilled volunteers by piloting new, technical programs through an 

expanded Peace Corps Response Program. The Committee directs 

the Peace Corps to explore the use of volunteers with relevant medical expertise to train foreign nationals to address fistula, and requests the Peace Corps Director to consult with the Committee on

Christopher J. Dodd Democracy, Rule of Law, Human Rights, 

and Conflict Resolution Fund.—The Committee is concerned with 

the continuing fragility of democratic institutions, and threats to

to address these issues, the Committee believes there is a need for 

additional targeted resources and innovative approaches. Recognizing Senator Christopher J. Dodd’s many years of devotion to 

these issues, the Committee supports the creation of a new fund, 

administered by the Inter-American Foundation, to support and 

promote democratic institution-building, the rule of law, respect for 
64

program scope, has relatively high operating costs as a proportion 

of total program costs. The Committee requests the ADF to explore 

potential options to achieve efficiencies in operating costs and 

greater emphasis on its programs. The ADF should consider organizational restructuring, consolidation of administrative services 

with similar organizations, purchase of services within the Federal 

Government and, where appropriate, selective outsourcing. The 

Committee directs the President of the ADF to report to the Committee not later than 90 days after enactment of this act on its 

findings.

Guatemala.—The Committee recommends $3,000,000 for the 

CICIG to continue investigations and prosecutions of illegal armed 

groups, clandestine criminal organizations, and official corruption. 

Mexico.—The Committee recommends $85,000,000 under this 

heading for assistance for Mexico, and notes that State and local 

law enforcement and judicial authorities have jurisdiction over the 

overwhelming majority of cases of violent crimes in Mexico. The 
67 

Committee recommends that a larger portion of U.S. assistance be 

used to strengthen their capacity to investigate and prosecute such 

crimes. The Committee further directs the Department of State and 

the Department of Justice to consult with the Committee prior to 

the transfer of funds to the Department of Justice for programs in 

Mexico. 

The Committee directs that assistance for Mexico may be used 

for the procurement of law enforcement communications equipment 

if, where appropriate, such equipment utilizes encryption technology, open standards, and is compatible with and capable of operating with radio communications systems and related equipment 

utilized by relevant law enforcement agencies in the United States, 

to enhance border security and cooperation in law enforcement efforts between Mexico and the United States. Such funds shall be 

awarded through full and open competition in accordance with all 

applicable rules and regulations. 

PROGRAM ISSUES

International Law Enforcement Academies.—The Committee recommends $37,200,000 for the ILEAs, which is $500,000 above the 

budget request. The Committee intends the additional funds, for a 

total of $5,000,000, to be used to support the ILEA in Roswell, New 

Mexico. 

REPORTS

ILEA, Roswell.—The Department of State is directed to submit 

to the Committee a multi-year plan for the continued operation of 

the Roswell facility on a competitive basis and in accordance with 

all applicable rules and regulations. 

Justice Reform/Rule of Law Report.—The Committee directs the 

Secretary of State, in consultation with the heads of other relevant 

Federal agencies, to submit a report not later than 180 days after 

enactment of this act, detailing, on a country-by-country basis, justice reform/rule of law programs to be funded by the U.S. Government abroad in fiscal year 2011, including the objectives and intended results of such programs; the extent to which such programs are coordinated with country strategies established by 

USAID and the Department of State, and those of multilateral donors, as appropriate; the mechanisms for monitoring such funds; 

and the metrics for measuring progress in achieving results.

Biosecurity Engagement Program.—The Committee recommends 

$37,000,000 for the BEP. 

Countering Violent Extremism Program.—The Committee provides funding for this new initiative, which includes such activities 

as livelihood programs, youth sports engagement, and community 

policing activities, under the ESF heading where such activities 

have been traditionally funded. The Committee recommends that 

future funding requests for such purposes be included under the 

ESF heading. 

Humanitarian Demining.—The Committee directs the Secretary 

of State to consult with the Committee on the uses of funds for humanitarian demining and other UXO removal programs. 

IAEA.—The Committee notes that funds appropriated under this 

heading may be made available for the IAEA unless the Secretary 

of State determines that Israel is being denied its right to participate in the activities of that Agency. The Committee recommends not less than $7,000,000 for UXO 

clearance in Laos, where many millions of United States cluster 

munitions continue to kill and injure civilians, and not less than 

$3,500,000 for similar activities in Vietnam. 

International Trust Fund for Demining and Mine Victim Assistance.—The Committee recommends continued support for the ITF 

for activities in Europe and Eurasia.

Lockerbie.—The Committee notes that the decision to release 

convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali Mohmend al-Megrahi 

from a Scottish prison was not made by the U.S. Government. 

However, the Committee directs the Secretary of State to submit 

a report not later than 180 days after enactment of this act, in classified form if necessary and after consulting with other Federal 

agencies, as appropriate, describing the circumstances known to 

the Secretary that led to al-Megrahi’s release, including information concerning commercial interests in his release, if any.

Cambodia.—The Committee deplores the deportation of 20 

Uighur asylum seekers from Cambodia to the PRC in December 

2009, and has prohibited assistance for multinational peacekeeping 

exercises in Cambodia unless the Secretary of State reports that 

the Government of Cambodia has provided credible information on 

the whereabouts and welfare of the Uighurs. 

Multilateral Force and Observers.—The Committee recommends 

$26,000,000 for a U.S. contribution to the Multinational Force and 

Observers mission in the Sinai, which is equal to the budget request. The Committee endorses MFO force protection efforts, and 

concurs with the use of funds appropriated by this act, and previous acts, for such purposes. 

Somalia.—The Committee notes that more than $50,000,000 in 

fiscal year 2010 PKO funds are unobligated, and intends these 

funds to be used for assistance for Somalia. The Committee provides an additional $55,918,000 for United Nations assessed peacekeeping costs in Somalia in fiscal year 2011. The Committee is concerned with reports that indiscriminate shelling by AMISOM 

troops have caused widespread civilian casualties, and requires a 
70 

report by the Secretary of State that necessary precautions are 

being taken to avoid civilian casualties.

COUNTRY ISSUES

Azerbaijan.—The Committee recognizes and appreciates the Government of Azerbaijan’s cooperation on security matters of interest 

to the United States. 

Bahrain.—The Committee recommends $19,500,000 for assistance for Bahrain, which is equal to the budget request. The Committee is concerned with reports that units of the Bahraini Ministry of Interior’s Criminal Investigations Directorate and the Bahrain National Security Agency regularly torture criminal suspects. 

The bill includes a provision restricting assistance to units of any 

foreign security force that uses torture, subject to a Secretary of 

State certification. 

Guatemala.—The Committee recognizes the challenges facing 

Guatemala from narcotics trafficking, organized crime, and clandestine groups that target social and political activists. The Committee does not restrict assistance for the Guatemalan Navy and 

Air Force, and permits assistance for the Army Corps of Engineers 

for limited purposes. With the exception of the Army Corps of Engineers, no assistance is provided to the Army under the IMET or 

FMF headings. The Committee will consider such assistance when 

the Army, the Ministry of Defense, and related security agencies 

are supporting and cooperating fully with civilian judicial investigations, prosecutions, and other proceedings involving current 

and retired military personnel who have been credibly alleged to 

have violated human rights; protecting and publicly disclosing all 

military archives pertaining to the internal armed conflict, including fully disclosing plan Firmeza 83, Plan Sofia 82 and Operation 

Ixil; and cooperating with the CICIG by granting access to CICIG 

personnel, providing evidence to CICIG, and allowing witness testimony. 

Indonesia.—The Committee notes the progress Indonesia has 

made in strengthening democracy, combating extremism, and addressing other challenges including illegal logging. Military reform, 

particularly accountability for past abuses, has lagged behind. The 

Committee recommends $22,000,000 for assistance for Indonesia, 

which is $2,000,000 above the fiscal year 2010 level and equal to 

the budget request. Of this amount, $2,000,000 may not be obligated until the Secretary of State reports in writing to the Committees on Appropriations pursuant to section 7040(d) of this act on— 

—Steps taken by the Government of Indonesia in the previous 12 

months to revise the Code of Military Justice, Uniform Criminal Code and other relevant statutes, to deny promotion, suspend from active service, and/or prosecute military officers 

credibly alleged to have violated human rights, and to refine 

further the military’s mission and develop an appropriate national defense budget to carry out that mission; 

—Efforts by the military in the previous 12 months to cooperate 

with civilian judicial authorities to resolve cases of violations 

of internationally recognized human rights; 

—Efforts by the military in the previous 12 months to implement 

reforms that increase the transparency and accountability of 

the military’s operations and financial management and con-
72 

crete steps taken to achieve divestment of all military businesses; and 

—Whether the Government of Indonesia is allowing public access 

to Papua, including foreign diplomats, NGOs, and journalists. 

Lebanon.—The Committee provides $100,000,000 for assistance 

for Lebanon, which is equal to the budget request, and recognizes 

the need for the Lebanese Armed Forces to contribute to stability 

in southern Lebanon in cooperation with the U.N. Interim Force in 

Lebanon. 

Philippines.—The Committee welcomes the expressed support by 

the new Government of the Philippines for accountability for extrajudicial executions and other human rights crimes by the military, 

and the appointment of a new Secretary of Justice is a positive 

sign. However, it remains to be seen whether this will translate 

into prosecutions of those responsible or the dismantling of the 

paramilitary forces that have been linked to abuses. 

The Committee recommends $33,000,000 for assistance for the 

Philippines, which is $1,000,000 above the fiscal year 2010 level 

and $18,000,000 above the budget request. Of this amount, 

$3,000,000 may not be obligated until the Secretary of State reports in writing to the Committees on Appropriations pursuant to 

section 7040(g) of this act that— 

—The Government of the Philippines is continuing to take effective steps to implement the recommendations of the United 

Nations Special Rapporteur on Extra-judicial, Summary or Arbitrary Executions, to include prosecutions and convictions for 

extra-judicial executions, sustaining the decline in the number 

of extra-judicial executions, and strengthening government institutions working to eliminate extra-judicial executions; 

—The Government of the Philippines is implementing a policy of 

promoting military personnel who demonstrate professionalism 

and respect for internationally recognized human rights, and is 

investigating, prosecuting, and punishing military personnel 

and others who have been credibly alleged to have violated 

such rights; and 

—The Philippine military does not have a policy of, and are not 

engaging in, acts of violence or intimidation against members 

of legal organizations who advocate for human rights. 

Tunisia.—The Committee recommends $15,000,000 for assistance 

for Tunisia, which is $10,100,000 above the budget request. Of this 

amount, $1,000,000 is subject to a Secretary of State certification. 

The Committee urges the Government of Tunisia to permit independent media, human rights organizations, and other civil society 

organizations to operate without interference, and its citizens to 

freely access the Internet. 

Ukraine.—The Committee recommends $11,000,000 for assistance for Ukraine, which is $4,000,000 below the budget request, 

and encourages that country’s renewed engagement and support for 

NATO priorities. 

Yemen.—The Committee recommends $35,000,000 for assistance 

for Yemen, which is equal to the budget request. 
73 

REPORTS

Morocco.—The Committee directs the Secretary of State to submit a report not later than 45 days after enactment of this act, detailing steps taken by the Government of Morocco in the previous 

12 months on human rights, including deportation of U.S. citizens 

in Morocco without due process of law, and whether it is allowing 

all persons to advocate freely their views regarding the status and 

future of the Western Sahara through the exercise of their rights 

to peaceful expression and association, and to document violations 

of human rights in the territory without harassment. 

Sri Lanka.—The Committee directs the Secretary of State to submit a report not later than 90 days after enactment of this act on 

crimes against humanity in Sri Lanka, with a focus on the final 

months of the conflict, updating the Secretary’s previous report on 

this matter and including an assessment of the extent to which the 

Government of Sri Lanka, the United Nations, or any other international body has conducted a thorough, credible, and transparent 

investigation of such crimes, and whether the individuals responsible have been appropriately punished. The report shall also discuss the situation of persons who remain in detention for reasons 

related to the conflict, and whether they have been provided access 

to a credible judicial process. 

PAKISTAN COUNTERINSURGENCY CAPABILITY FUND

Appropriation, 2010 ............................................................................... $700,000,000 

Budget estimate, 2011 ........................................................................... 1,200,000,000 

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 900,000,000 

The Committee recommends $900,000,000 for the Pakistan 

Counterinsurgency Capability Fund. The Committee supports a 

long-term partnership with Pakistan to address issues of international terrorism, poverty and development. The Committee is 

concerned with reports that Pakistani security forces have denied 

access to humanitarian organizations to IDPs and other vulnerable 

populations and detainees, and have engaged in a pattern of gross 

violations of human rights. The Committee intends section 620J of 

the FAA to be applied in Pakistan to ensure that U.S. assistance 

is not misused and that individuals responsible for abuses are appropriately punished.

REPORT

Organization of American States.—The Committee directs the 

Secretary of State to submit a report not later than 180 days after 

enactment of this act and after consultation with other Federal 

agencies, as appropriate, detailing a multi-year strategy to promote

The Committee provides $2,612,750,000 for contributions to the

Asian Development Bank, the Asian Development Fund, and the 

African Development Fund.

Committee recommendation ................................................................. 1,285,000,000 

The Committee recommends $1,285,000,000 for the U.S. contribution to the International Development Association. 

The Committee notes that access to modern energy services is 

necessary for poverty eradication and economic progress, and that 

reliance on fossil fuels in developing countries is a growing contributor to global climate change. The World Bank is currently developing a new energy strategy that must provide strong leadership 

in addressing these related challenges. As the Committee considers 

a U.S. contribution to the World Bank’s General Capital Increase, 

it will assess the Bank’s progress toward adopting an energy strategy that: (1) supports increased energy services for the poor that 

are clean, reliable and sustainable; (2) assists countries in the transition toward zero/very low-carbon development; and (3) rapidly 

phases out Bank support for fossil fuel related projects, except 

those that are solely to provide access to energy for the poor.

or energy efficiency technologies, and that financing for fossil fuel 

projects continues to far exceed that for clean energy. The Committee directs the Bank to submit a report to the Committee not

address the GAO’s findings.

DISCLOSURE OF CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING 

ITEMS 

The Constitution vests in the Congress the power of the purse. 

The Committee believes strongly that Congress should make the 

decisions on how to allocate the people’s money. 

As defined in Rule XLIV of the Standing Rules of the Senate, the 

term ‘‘congressional directed spending item’’ means a provision or 

report language included primarily at the request of a Senator, providing, authorizing, or recommending a specific amount of discretionary budget authority, credit authority, or other spending authority for a contract, loan, loan guarantee, grant, loan authority, 

or other expenditure with or to an entity, or targeted to a specific 

State, locality or congressional district, other than through a statutory or administrative, formula-driven, or competitive award process. 

For each item, a Member is required to provide a certification 

that neither the Member nor the Senator’s immediate family has 

a pecuniary interest in such congressionally directed spending 

item. Such certifications are available to the public on the website 

of the Senate Committee on Appropriations 

(www.appropriations.senate.gov/senators.cfm). 

Neither the Committee recommendation nor this report contains 

any congressionally directed spending items, limited tax benefits, 

nor limited tariff benefits as defined in rule XLIV.
