                                           The White House,
                                    Washington, September 28, 2012.
Hon. John Boehner,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: In accordance with section 115(c) of the 
Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2013, I hereby designate 
for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism all 
funding so designated by the Congress in section 115(a) 
pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and 
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, as amended, as outlined 
in the enclosed list of accounts.
    The details of this action are set forth in the enclosed 
letter from the Deputy Director for Management of the Office of 
Management and Budget.
            Sincerely,
                                                      Barack Obama.
        Executive Office of the President, Office of 
            Management and Budget,
                                Washington, DC, September 27, 2012.

                      MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT

From: Jeffrey D. Zients, Deputy Director for Management.
Subject: Designation of Funding for Overseas Contingency Operations/
        Global War on Terrorism.

    Section 115(c) of the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 
2013, provides that the availability of funding that is 
designated by the Congress in section 115(a) 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 civilian-led mission in Iraq. I 
recommend that you designate for Overseas Contingency 
Operations/Global War on Terrorism all funding so designated by 
the Congress in section 115(a) pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A) 
of BBEDCA, 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. 
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.
    Enclosure.
