   A REQUEST FOR FY 2009 BUDGET AMENDMENTS FOR ONGOING MILITARY AND 
    INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS IN SUPPORT OF OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM, 
OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM, AND SELECTED OTHER INTERNATIONAL ACTIVITIES




May 5, 2008.--Message and accompanying papers referred to the Committee 
              on Appropriations and ordered to be printed
                                           The White House,
                                           Washington, May 2, 2008.
Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Madam Speaker: I ask the Congress to consider the 
enclosed amendments to my FY 2009 Budget that provide the 
necessary resources for ongoing military and intelligence 
operations, as well as foreign assistance activities in support 
of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. They 
also provide the necessary resources for selected other 
international activities that advance our national security, 
including food assistance to address the global food crisis.
    These amendments distribute by account $70 billion of 
discretionary budget authority included as an allowance in my 
FY 2009 Budget for the Global War on Terror. This amount is 
already factored into the FY 2009 Budget projections and would 
not increase the deficit.
    I hereby designate the specific proposals in the amounts 
requested herein as emergency requirements. This request 
represents urgent and essential requirements. The details of 
the request are set forth in the enclosed letter from the 
Director of the Office of Management and Budget.
            Sincerely,
                                                    George W. Bush.
                [Estimate No. 2, 110th Cong., 2d Sess.]

                 Executive Office of the President,
                           Office of Management and Budget,
                                      Washington, DC., May 1, 2008.
The President,
The White House.
    Submitted for your consideration are amendments to your FY 
2009 Budget that would provide necessary resources for ongoing 
military and intelligence operations, as well as civilian 
diplomatic efforts and foreign assistance activities in support 
of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. They 
would also provide necessary resources for selected other 
international activities that advance our national security, 
including urgent food aid.
    These amendments distribute by account $70 billion of 
discretionary budget authority included as an allowance in your 
FY 2009 Budget for the Global War on Terror (GWOT). The 
amendments, therefore, do not affect the total discretionary 
budget authority proposed in your FY 2009 Budget. This $70 
billion request and all prior war funding are included in your 
Administration's deficit projections.
    Of the amounts to be distributed, $66 billion is for the 
Department of Defense and classified activities, and $4 billion 
is for international functions. The major categories of funding 
are highlighted below.
Military and intelligence operations
     $45.1 billion to fund combat operations and 
related activities in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) 
and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF).
     $3.7 billion to expand the size of the Afghan 
Security Forces and enhance their capacity to conduct 
counterinsurgency operations independent of U.S. assistance.
     $2.0 billion to sustain efforts to enhance the 
Iraqi Security Forces' capacity to conduct independent 
counterinsurgency operations.
     $1.7 billion for the Commander's Emergency 
Response Program in Iraq and Afghanistan to enable commanders 
to address local populations' urgent needs and gain support in 
the fight against insurgents.
     $400 million to maintain and enhance medical and 
rehabilitation services associated with traumatic brain injury 
and psychological health issues for our Wounded Warriors 
returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.
     $3.0 billion for classified activities.
     $2.2 billion for projected increased fuel costs.
     $900 million to reimburse partners for logistical, 
military, and other support in the GWOT.
Equipment and force structure
     $3.0 billion to develop anti-improvised explosive 
device (IED) technologies and provide pre-deployment training 
in methods to counter all forms of IEDs.
     $2.6 billion to transport and maintain Mine 
Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles in theater.
     $1.3 billion to fund acquisition of 28 additional 
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and support systems to enhance 
protection of U.S. and coalition forces.
     $100 million for new force protection equipment in 
response to emerging threats in order to minimize U.S. 
casualties.
International affairs and stabilization activities
     $2.5 billion for ongoing GWOT activities:
    --$1.4 billion for Iraq, including support for Provincial 
Reconstruction Teams (PRTs), Iraqi refugees and internally 
displaced persons (IDPs), provincial elections, security and 
operations, and the Office of the Inspector General.
    --$1.1 billion for Afghanistan, including support for 
democracy and governance, agriculture, development, counter-
narcotics, PRTs, humanitarian activities, and security and 
operations.
     $770 million for emergency food aid and assistance 
to address the destabilizing effects of the global food crisis, 
including support for agriculture programs to increase food 
security.
     $350 million to expand stability in the Middle 
East, including $200 million for the West Bank, $100 million 
for Jordan, and $50 million for Lebanon.
     $193.2 million for Pakistan to fund military and 
economic assistance, increase diplomatic activities in the 
Federally Administered Tribal Areas, and expand U.S. Agency for 
International Development (USAID) operations.
     $122.9 million to support stabilization activities 
in Africa, including support for Kenya, Democratic Republic of 
the Congo, Uganda, USAID operations in Sudan, and the African 
Union Mission in Somalia.
     $35.6 million for increased diplomatic security 
support to several Middle East peace missions and personnel in 
Sudan and Somalia.
     $15 million to advance the six-party talks 
agreement to address the North Korean nuclear program.
Recommendation
    This request fulfills known and urgent needs and I 
recommend that you designate the specific amendments contained 
in this transmittal as emergency requirements.
    I have carefully reviewed these proposals and am satisfied 
that they are necessary at this time. Therefore, I join 
Secretary Gates, Secretary Rice, Attorney General Mukasey, and 
Director McConnell in recommending you transmit the proposals 
to the Congress.
            Sincerely,
                                                Jim Nussle,
                                                          Director.
    Enclosures.

Revised Request: $29,285,358,000

(In the appropriations language under the above heading, insert 
the following new paragraph immediately after the concluding 
period:)
    For an additional amount for ``Operation and Maintenance 
Defense-Wide,'' $3,193,494,000, of which
          (1) not to exceed $25,000,000 may be used for the 
        Combatant Commander Initiative Fund, to be used in 
        support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation 
        Enduring Freedom;
          (2) not to exceed $100,000,000, to remain available 
        until expended may be used, notwithstanding any other 
        provision of law, for the purpose of providing 
        specialized training and procuring supplies and 
        specialized equipment and providing such supplies and 
        loaning such equipment on a non-reimbursable basis to 
        coalition forces supporting United States military 
        operations in Iraq and Afghanistan;
          (3) not to exceed $50,000,000 may be used, 
        notwithstanding any other provision of law, for the 
        purpose of providing for the redevelopment of the Iraqi 
        industrial sector by identifying, and providing 
        assistance to, factories and other industrial 
        facilities that are best situated to resume operations 
        quickly and reemploy the Iraqi workforce; and
          (4) not to exceed $900,000,000, to remain available 
        until expended, may be used for payments to reimburse 
        Pakistan, Jordan, and other key cooperating nations, 
        for logistical military, and other support provided, or 
        to be provided, to United States military operations 
        relating to Iraq, Afghanistan or other aspects of 
        combating terrorism, notwithstanding any other 
        provision of law:
Provided, That the Congress designates this amount as an 
emergency requirement for this specific purpose: Provided 
further, That reimbursement payments provided under (4) above 
may be made in such amounts as the Secretary of Defense, with 
the concurrence of the Secretary of State, and in consultation 
with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget may 
determine, in his discretion, based on documentation determined 
by the Secretary of Defense to adequately account for the 
support provided, and such determination is final and 
conclusive upon the accounting officers of the United States, 
and 15 days following notification to the appropriate 
congressional committees: Provided further That the Secretary 
of Defense shall provide quarterly reports to the congressional 
defense committees on the use of funds provided under (2) and 
(4) above.
    This proposal would partially fund the incremental costs 
for activities in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and 
Operation Enduring Freedom, including classified activities. 
These activities encompass operations; transportation; supplies 
and equipment; depot maintenance; and command, control, and 
intelligence capabilities. This request would also fund the 
communication backbone and continuing support for voice, video 
and data systems management; transmission; and satellite 
services. In addition, this request would finance continuing 
support for contract audit; contract management; media; family 
support counseling; wounded, ill and injured initiatives; and 
critical infrastructure protection. This request includes funds 
to support the lift and sustainment costs of coalition 
partners.
    The additional funding authorized for the Combatant 
Commander Initiative Fund supports unforeseen low-cost, high-
benefit initiatives that enhance joint warfighting capabilities 
in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring 
Freedom.
    The request would also partially fund payments to key 
cooperating nations (e.g., Pakistan and Jordan) and coalition 
countries providing logistical, military, or other support to 
U.S. military operations in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom 
and Operation Enduring Freedom, or other aspects of combating 
terrorism. Such support includes transportation into the 
theater, providing supplies to coalition forces in the theater, 
and helping coalition forces with communication support.
    The proposed language would authorize the Department of 
Defense (DOD) to use up to $100 million of Operation and 
Maintenance, Defense-wide funds to provide specialized 
training, supplies and equipment to coalition forces that could 
not deploy to or conduct their missions in Iraq and Afghanistan 
without such support. This authority will allow specialized 
pre-deployment training to ensure coalition forces are 
adequately prepared for deployment. Use of this authority to 
purchase equipment for deployments will allow the U.S. 
Government to retain ownership of such equipment and to rotate 
the equipment to follow-on replacements of coalition forces 
(except for those personal clothing items or other supplies not 
normally re-issued to follow-on rotations), thus achieving a 
cost savings. Furthermore, DOD can ensure that coalition forces 
have current and interoperable equipment, especially counter-
improvised explosive device equipment, thus potentially 
reducing casualties for both coalition and U.S. forces.
    The proposed language would also provide authority of up to 
$50 million to continue the work being done by the Task Force 
to improve Business and Stability Operations in Iraq, as well 
as other classified activities.

narcotics trafficking and narcotics-related terrorist 
activities in Afghanistan and Central Asia.

FY 2009 Budget Appendix Page: 334
FY 2009 Pending Request: ------
Proposed Amendment: Language
Revised Request: ------

(In the appropriations language under the above heading, insert 
the following new sections following Sec. 8058 and before the 
opening parenthesis of the bill citation:)
    SEC. 8059. SPECIAL TRANSFER AUTHORITY. Upon the 
determination of the Secretary of Defense that such action is 
necessary in the national interest, the Secretary may transfer 
between appropriations up to $4,000,000,000 of the funds made 
available to the Department of Defense in this Act and 
designated as an emergency requirement: Provided, That the 
Secretary shall notify the Congress promptly of each transfer 
made pursuant to the authority in this section: Provided 
further That the authority provided in this section is in 
addition to any other transfer authority available to the 
Department of Defense and is subject to the same terms and 
conditions as the authority provided in section 8003 of this 
Act.
    This language will provide the Department with special 
transfer authority to fund emerging requirements.
    SEC. 8060. INTELLIGENCE AUTHORITY. Funds appropriated or 
made available by transfer in this act may be obligated and 
expended notwithstanding section 504(a)(1) of the National 
Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 414(a)(1)).
    This proposed waiver is necessary in order to authorize the 
Department and the Intelligence Community to obligate 
supplemental amounts for activities funded through the National 
Intelligence Program.
    SEC. 8061. COMMANDER'S EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROGRAM (CERP) 
AUTHORITY.
    (a) Availability of Funds for CERP. From funds made 
available in this Act to the Department of Defense and 
designated as an emergency requirement, not to exceed 
$1,722,000,000, to remain available until December 31, 2009, 
may be used, notwithstanding any other provision of law, to 
fund the Commander's Emergency Response Program for the purpose 
of enabling military commanders in Iraq to respond to urgent 
humanitarian relief and reconstruction requirements within 
their areas of responsibility by carrying out programs that 
will immediately assist the Iraqi people, and to fund a similar 
program to assist the people of Afghanistan: Provided, That the 
Secretary of Defense may accept contributions of funds from any 
person, foreign government, or international organization to 
carry out the Commander's Emergency Response Program in Iraq or 
Afghanistan, and may use any funds contributed for such 
purpose.
    (b) Quarterly Reports. Not later than 45 days after the end 
of each fiscal year quarter (beginning with the first quarter 
of fiscal year 2009), the Secretary of Defense shall submit to 
the congressional defense committees a report regarding the 
source of funds and the allocation and use of funds during that 
quarter that were made available pursuant to the authority 
provided in this section or under any other provision of law 
for the purposes of the programs under subsection (a).
    Additional Commander's Emergency Response Program (CERP) 
authority is required to support the military commanders in 
winning the support of the locals and in stabilizing Iraq and 
Afghanistan. The CERP projects are identified by commanders 
working in concert with provincial and district leaders. The 
military commanders in the field believe that CERP is one of 
their most valuable weapons in securing and stabilizing the 
various regions/cities in Iraq. The last proviso will allow the 
Secretary of Defense to accept contributions from the 
Government of Iraq and others for the military commanders to 
use for CERP projects.
    SEC. 8062. DEFENSE COOPERATION ACCOUNT CONTRIBUTIONS 
TRANSFER AUTHORITY. During fiscal year 2009, the Secretary of 
Defense may transfer amounts in or credited to the Defense 
Cooperation Account, pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2608, to such 
appropriations or funds of the Department of Defense as he 
shall determine for use consistent with the purposes for which 
such funds were contributed and accepted: Provided, That such 
amounts shall be available for the same time period as the 
appropriation to which transferred: Provided further, That the 
Secretary shall report to the Congress all transfers made 
pursuant to this authority.
    This authority will allow the Department to obligate any 
funds contributed by the Iraqis and others specifically for the 
Global War on Terror.
    SEC. 8063. SPECIAL COUNTER-DRUG AUTHORITY.
    (a) AUTHORITY TO PROVIDE SUPPORT.--Of the amount 
appropriated by this Act under the heading, ``Drug Interdiction 
and Counter-Drug Activities Defense,'' not to exceed 
$30,000,000 may be used for support for counter-drug activities 
of the Governments of Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, 
Pakistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan: Provided That such 
support shall be in addition to support provided for the 
counter-drug activities of such Governments under any other 
provision of the law. 
    (b) TYPES OF SUPPORT.--(1) Except as specified in 
subsection (b)(2) of this section the support that may be 
provided under the authority in this section shall be limited 
to the types of support specified in section 1033(c)(1) of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998 (Public 
Law 105-85, as amended by Public Laws 106-398, 108-136, and 
109-364) and conditions on the provision of support as 
contained in section 1033 shall apply for fiscal year 2009.
    (2) The Secretary of Defense may transfer vehicles, 
aircraft, and detection, interception, monitoring and testing 
equipment to said Governments for counter-drug activities.
    This section would add $30 million in additional Section 
1033 authority in FY 2009. Current law authorizes the 
Department of Defense (DOD) to provide specific types of 
support, not to exceed $60 million annually. This authorization 
has enabled the Department and the U.S. Government to bolster 
nascent security efforts in Afghanistan and Central Asia. The 
requested authority increases the amount of funding DOD can 
spend to accommodate Afghanistan's and other Central Asia 
nations' acute requirements for equipment and maintenance. 
These countries are situated either along key drug smuggling 
routes or are facing an increasing threat of narcoterrorism. 
Enhanced interdiction capabilities for the countries listed in 
this legislation are critical to U.S. efforts to stem the flow 
of illicit drugs, and to reduce the threat of narcoterrorism to 
struggling democracies.
    SEC. 8064. LIFT AND SUSTAIN AUTHORITY FOR IRAQ AND 
AFGHANISTAN. Funds made available to the Department of Defense 
in this Act and designated as an emergency requirement may be 
used, notwithstanding any other provision of law, to provide 
supplies, services, transportation, including airlift and 
sealift and other logistical support to coalition forces 
supporting military and stability operations in Iraq and 
Afghanistan: Provided, That the Secretary of Defense shall 
provide quarterly reports to the congressional defense 
committees regarding support provided under this section.
    This section would authorize the Department of Defense 
(DOD) to provide airlift, sealift, and sustainment for 
countries supporting U.S. military operations in Iraq and 
Afghanistan. The DOD has used this authority, generally 
referred to as Lift and Sustain authority, to support willing 
coalition countries that otherwise could not support U.S. 
military operations. Smaller coalition countries do not have 
the financial means or the funding to transport their forces to 
and from the operating theater or to sustain their forces for 
extended deployments. Direct support from the United States is 
critical to enabling forces from these countries to remain in 
theater. Without this authority, many coalition countries will 
not be able to maintain their forces in U.S. military 
operations thus increasing the stress on U.S. forces operating 
in theater.
    SEC. 8065. EXTENSION OF FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR POST TRAUMATIC 
STRESS DISORDER AND TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY. Of the amounts 
provided under the heading ``Defense Health Program'' in Public 
Law 110-28 for the treatment of traumatic brain injury and 
post-traumatic stress disorder. $600,000,000 of such amounts 
shall be available for psychological health and traumatic brain 
injury: Provided, That of such amounts, $100,000,000 shall 
remain available until September 30, 2009.
    The Department needs to extend the period of availability 
for $100 million of the $600 million appropriated for Post-
Traumatic Stress Disorder and Traumatic Brain Injury in the 
U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Care, Katrina Recovery, and 
Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act, 2007 (Public Law 110-
28) to ensure funds are executed in a fiscally prudent manner. 
While the Department has moved aggressively to improve 
research, prevention, access, diagnosis, mitigation, treatment 
and rehabilitative care for individuals with Post-Traumatic 
Stress Disorder and Traumatic Brain Injury, initial ramp-up and 
staffing requirements have taken longer than expected due to 
the specialized and cutting-edge nature of these programs. To 
avoid further complications in the execution of these funds, 
the language also clarifies that the funding provided for Post-
Traumatic Stress Disorder is available under the more broadly 
defined term of psychological health.

(In the appropriations language under the above heading, insert 
the following new sections immediately after the language in 
Sec. 642 and before the opening parenthesis of the bill 
citation:)

                             AUTHORIZATION

    Sec. 643. Funds appropriated by this Act may be obligated 
and expended notwithstanding section 10 of Public Law 91-672 
(22 U.S.C 2412), section 15 of the State Department Basic 
Authorities Act of 1956 (22 U.S.C. 2680) and section 504(a)(1) 
of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C 414(a)(1)).
    The proposal contains appropriations for a number of items 
for which authorizations for fiscal year 2009 have not yet been 
enacted. This provision would allow funds appropriated to be 
obligated in the absence of a prior authorization of 
appropriations.

                    BUYING POWER MAINTENANCE ACCOUNT

    Sec. 644. Buying Power Maintenance Account. Expired, 
unobligated balances of funds appropriated for fiscal year 2009 
under the headings `Administration of Foreign Affairs' and 
'Broadcasting Board of Governors' in this or any other Act may 
be transferred to and merged with the Buying Power Maintenance 
Accounts of the Department of State and the Broadcasting Board 
of Governors, respectively, not later than the end of the fifth 
fiscal year after the last fiscal year for which such funds are 
available for the purposes for which appropriated, 
notwithstanding section 24(b)(7)(D) of the State Department 
Basic Authorities Act.
    This provision would permit the transfer of expired, 
unobligated balances of funds appropriated for fiscal year 2009 
to the no-year Buying Power Maintenance Accounts of the 
Department of State and Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG).
    This authority will help the Department of State and 
Broadcasting Board of Governors offset adverse fluctuations in 
foreign currency exchange rates, which in recent years have 
exerted considerable downward pressure on Department of State 
and BBG accounts. The provision waives section 24(b)(7)(D) of 
the State Department Basic Authorities Act (22 U.S.C. 
2696(b)(7)(D)), which makes such transfers subject to advance 
appropriations, to clarify that exercise of this authority does 
not require future appropriations.
    The Buying Power Maintenance Account (BPMA) authority was 
established to provide the Department of State and the 
Broadcasting Board of Governors with a mechanism to respond to 
varying exchange rates; however, both accounts have been 
depleted and are unable to capture exchange rate gains due to 
the dollar's prolonged decline overseas.
