Designation ofFunding~erse:s Contingency Operations/Global War 

on Terrorism 

Section 5 of the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2013 (Act), 

provides that the availability of funding contained in the Act that is designated by the Congress 

for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) 

of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (BBEDCA), as amended, is 

contingent upon the President subsequently so designating all such amounts and transmitting 

such designations to the Congress. 

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

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

Pakistan, and other conflict areas including the continued transition from a military to a civilianled mission in Iraq. I recommend that you designate for Overseas Contingency Operations/ 

Global War on Terrorism all funding (including the rescission of funds) so designated by the 

Congress in that Act pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) ofBBEDCA, as outlined in the enclosed 

list of accounts. Upon transmittal of these designations to the Congress, these funds will be 

immediately available for obligation and expenditure (or rescission). No further congressional 

action will be required. 

The designation of these funds for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 

Terrorism allows for adjustments to the discretionary spending limits in fiscal year 2013, as 

specified in section 251 (b )(2)(A) of BBEDCA. These adjustments will be reflected when the 

Office of Management and Budget submits its final sequestration report under section 254(f) of 

BBEDCA. 

I have carefully reviewed this proposed action and am satisfied it is necessary at this 

time. Therefore, I recommend that you make the requested funds available by signing the 

enclosed letters to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senate.
