                                           The White House,
                                         Washington, June 26, 2014.
Hon. John Boehner,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: I ask the Congress to consider the 
enclosed Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 Budget amendments for the 
Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of State and 
Other International Programs (State/OIP) to fund Overseas 
Contingency Operations (OCO). These amendments would provide 
$58.6 billion for DOD OCO activities, which is $20.9 billion 
less than the $79.4 billion placeholder for DOD OCO in the FY 
2015 Budget. It would also provide $1.4 billion for State/OIP 
OCO activities, which is in addition to the $5.9 billion for 
State/OIP included in the FY 2015 Budget. Overall, these 
amendments would decrease the total OCO funding requested for 
FY 2015 by $19.5 billion.
    Final decisions about the number and activities of U.S. 
forces in Afghanistan after December 2014 had not yet been made 
at the time the FY 2015 Budget was submitted. As a result, the 
Budget included a placeholder for DOD FY 2015 OCO funding 
equivalent to the amount requested in the FY 2014 Budget. The 
Administration noted in the FY 2015 Budget that after 
determining required force levels in Afghanistan, a Budget 
amendment updating the OCO request would be submitted to the 
Congress. The enclosed amendments include the necessary updates 
to the OCO request in order to fund military operations in 
Afghanistan, a significant portion of the U.S. military 
presence around the Middle East, the Administration's proposed 
Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund and European Reassurance 
Initiative, and State/OIP peacekeeping costs in the Central 
African Republic.
    The details of these amendments are set forth in the 
enclosed letter from the Acting Director of the Office of 
Management and Budget.
            Sincerely,
                                                      Barack Obama.
               [Estimate No. 2, 113th Cong., 2d Session]

                 Executive Office of the President,
                           Office of Management and Budget,
                                     Washington, DC, June 26, 2014.
The President,
The White House.
    Submitted for your consideration are amendments to your 
Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) 
request for the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department 
of State and Other International Programs (State/OIP). Military 
operations in Afghanistan, as well as activities that support 
Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), related follow-on activities, 
and other critical missions in the region, constitute the 
majority of the DOD OCO request. The request also includes 
funding for both DOD and State/OIP to implement the 
Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund (CTPF) and the European 
Reassurance Initiative (ERI), and additional funding for State/
OIP peacekeeping costs in the Central African Republic (CAR).
    Because final decisions about the number and activities of 
U.S. forces in Afghanistan after December 2014 had not yet been 
made when the FY 2015 Budget was submitted, the Budget included 
$5.9 billion in OCO funding for State/OIP and a placeholder of 
$79.4 billion for DOD. This package submits for your 
consideration the complete and updated FY 2015 request for DOD 
OCO funding, totaling $58.6 billion, as well as an increase of 
$1.4 billion for State/OIP OCO funding. Overall, these 
amendments decrease by $19.5 billion the total amount of OCO 
funding requested for FY 2015.
    The United States' goals in Afghanistan beyond 2014 are to 
continue to support the Afghan National Security Forces, 
support economic development and governance efforts, and pursue 
U.S. counterterrorism goals against al Qaeda and its affiliated 
groups. As you announced in May, the United States will 
conclude combat operations in Afghanistan by the end of this 
calendar year. The United States will draw down to 
approximately 9,800 U.S. servicemembers in Afghanistan by early 
2015, which, together with NATO allies and other partners, will 
allow the United States to continue advising key Afghan forces 
and to sustain counterterrorism operations. By the end of 2015 
the United States will have reduced that presence by roughly 
half and consolidated its military and diplomatic presence to 
Kabul and Bagram Airfield. By the end of 2016, DOD will draw 
down to a more conventional embassy-based security assistance 
presence in Kabul.
    In support of OEF and related follow-on activities, DOD OCO 
funding would support several key efforts, including:
           Lconcluding the combat mission in 
        Afghanistan at the end of 2014 and positioning U.S. 
        military and intelligence forces in Afghanistan for 
        their post-2014 mission;
           Ldrawing down to approximately 9,800 U.S. 
        servicemembers in the country by early 2015 from an 
        average of 38,000 in FY 2014;
           Lcontinuing to support the Afghan National 
        Security Forces (ANSF) as they assume full 
        responsibility for security in Afghanistan after 
        December 2014;
           Lsustaining the fight against transnational 
        terrorists who seek to undermine the United States and 
        its allies;
           Lproviding warfighters with the 
        intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) 
        support that has proven essential for mission success 
        in Afghanistan and around the region;
           Lproviding support to Coalition allies in 
        Afghanistan and the surrounding region;
           Ldisposing of unexploded ordnance in 
        Afghanistan and continuing to support Coalition and 
        partner efforts to counter improvised explosive 
        devices;
           Lreturning thousands of cargo containers and 
        pieces of equipment from Afghanistan to their home 
        stations;
           Lreplenishing or replacing expended 
        munitions and ammunition as well as combat-damaged 
        equipment, including helicopters, ground vehicles, and 
        unmanned aerial systems; and
           Lsupporting a portion of temporary Army and 
        Marine Corps end strength that currently supports OEF, 
        but will not be required under the defense strategy 
        articulated in the 2014 Quadrennial Defense Review.
    Although the FY 2015 OCO request reflects a transition as 
the United States concludes combat operations in Afghanistan 
partway into the fiscal year, most costs will not decline 
precipitously. For example, DOD will still incur significant 
costs to transport personnel, supplies, and equipment back to 
their home stations. Funding to sustain the ANSF will continue 
to be needed to ensure that Afghan forces can provide 
sufficient security. There will be continued costs to repair 
and replace equipment and munitions as DOD resets the force 
over the next few years.
    The OCO funding would also continue to support DOD's strong 
forward presence in the broader Middle East region. The overall 
U.S. military posture in the region enables DOD to support OEF 
and other important missions, such as assuring our regional 
partners, deterring aggression, and working with our partners 
to counter terrorism. It includes advanced fighter aircraft, 
ISR assets, missile defense capabilities, rotational ground 
forces, a robust naval presence, and building partners' 
capacity. As the United States continues its transition from 
over a decade of fighting in the broader region to preparing 
for future challenges, military capabilities in the region will 
continue to evolve to meet new threats.
    The updated OCO request includes $5 billion for CTPF, split 
among DOD, State/OIP, and the Intelligence Community, with 
dedicated transfer accounts in both DOD and State/OIP designed 
to provide the flexibility and resources required to respond to 
emerging needs as terrorist threats continue to evolve. The 
CTPF would support a more sustainable and effective approach to 
combating terrorism that focuses on empowering and enabling 
partners facing terrorist threats. The DOD request of $4.0 
billion would support a transitional effort to increase partner 
capacity-building, facilitate partner counterterrorism 
operations, enhance DOD's counterterrorism activities, and 
increase DOD's flexibility in responding to emergent crises. 
The State/OIP request of $1.0 billion would enable the 
Department to increase counterterrorism and stabilization 
efforts in areas such as the Middle East, North Africa and the 
Sahel, the Horn of Africa, and South and Central Asia; address 
underlying conditions conducive to terrorism; and address the 
broader counterterrorism challenge of the crisis in Syria and 
its destabilizing impact on the region. Both funds build 
primarily on existing authorities, but would provide the 
Federal Government with expanded flexibility and resources to 
respond more nimbly to evolving terrorist threats and further 
develop and invest in partnerships from South Asia to the 
Sahel.
    The OCO request also includes $1 billion for the ERI to 
provide temporary support to bolster the security of our NATO 
allies and partner states in Europe. These funds would enable 
the United States to increase military exercises, training, and 
presence in Europe, especially in Central and Eastern Europe, 
increase U.S. naval force deployments to the Black and Baltic 
Seas, enhance our preparedness to reinforce NATO allies through 
the prepositioning of equipment, improve infrastructure at 
training and logistics facilities, especially in Central and 
Eastern Europe, and strengthen the capacity of partner states 
in Europe to operate alongside the United States and NATO and 
to defend their security. Of the $1 billion requested, $925 
million is for DOD and $75 million is for State/OIP's Foreign 
Military Financing account.
    The updated request includes an additional $278 million in 
State/OIP's Peacekeeping Response Mechanism account to fully 
fund the additional estimated costs resulting from the April 
2014 decision by United Nations (UN) Security Council to 
authorize a new UN peacekeeping mission to deploy in the CAR. 
This decision was made after the Administration submitted its 
FY 2015 Budget.
    General provisions included in this request would provide 
necessary authorities to support military operations in the 
U.S. Central Command area of responsibility. As in each of the 
past five years, these include a request for $4 billion in OCO-
specific transfer authority.
    Your FY 2015 Budget submitted in March 2014 estimated $47.1 
billion in FY 2015 outlays from the FY 2015 DOD OCO 
placeholder. Based on the updated request submitted in this 
package, FY 2015 DOD OCO outlays from new budget authority 
would be $33.8 billion. In addition, the updated request 
increases estimated FY 2015 State/OIP OCO outlays by $472 
million.
    The FY 2015 Budget also reproposes a $450 billion multi-
year cap on Government-wide OCO funding over the FY 2013 to FY 
2021 period. In FY 2014, enacted funding designated as OCO is 
$91.9 billion across DOD, State/OIP, and the Department of 
Homeland Security. With this update, the FY 2015 Budget 
proposes a total of $65.8 billion in OCO funding for DOD and 
State/OIP, leaving a total of $199.2 billion remaining under 
the proposed cap for the years FY 2016 to FY 2021, or an 
average of $33.2 billion per year.
Recommendation
    I reviewed these amendments and am satisfied that they are 
necessary at this time. Therefore, I join the Secretary of 
Defense and the Secretary of State in recommending that you 
transmit the amendments to the Congress.
            Sincerely,
                                            Brian C. Deese,
                                                   Acting Director.

dental services to active forces (above baseline), mobilized 
Reserve Components, and their family members in support of 
Operation Enduring Freedom and follow-on activities. The funds 
would also cover the incremental costs associated with the 
treatment of combat casualties at Military Treatment 
Facilities, pre/post deployment processing for personnel, 
aeromedical transportation of casualties, and post deployment 
health assessments.

Proposed Amendment: $4,000,000,000
Revised Request: $4,000,000,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above bureau, 
just after the Bodoni dash and immediately before the heading 
``Iraq Security Forces Fund'', insert the above new heading, 
the new subheading, the following new language, and a new 
Bodoni dash:)
    For the ``Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund'', 
$4,000,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2017:
    Provided, That such funds shall be available, under the 
authority provided by any other provision of law, to enhance 
counterterrorism and crisis response activities undertaken by 
the Armed Forces, and to provide support and assistance to 
foreign security forces, irregular forces, groups, or 
individuals to conduct, support, or facilitate counterterrorism 
and crisis response activities:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall, with 
the approval of the Office of Management and Budget, transfer 
the funds provided herein to any appropriations available to 
the Department of Defense or with the approval of the Office of 
Management and Budget and the concurrence of the Secretary of 
State, to ``Department of State--Counterterrorism Partnerships 
Fund'':
    Provided further, That the transfer authority in the 
preceding proviso is in addition to any other transfer 
authority available to the Department of Defense:
    Provided further, That funds so transferred shall be merged 
with and be available for the same purposes, to the extent 
consistent with the purposes identified in the first proviso, 
and for the same time period as the appropriation or fund to 
which transferred:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall, not 
fewer than 15 days prior to transferring amounts from this 
appropriation account, notify the congressional defense 
committees in writing of the details of any such transfer:
    Provided further, That the preceding proviso shall not 
apply to a transfer of funds if the Secretary of Defense 
determines that the national security objectives of the United 
States will be compromised by the application of the proviso, 
in which case the Secretary of Defense shall immediately notify 
the congressional defense committees that such transfer is 
necessary and provide any relevant information (in classified 
form, if necessary):
    Provided further, That, upon a determination by the 
Secretary of Defense with the approval of the Office of 
Management and Budget, that all or part of the funds 
transferred from this appropriation to an account of the 
Department of Defense are not necessary for the purposes 
herein, such amounts may be transferred back to this 
appropriation and shall be available for the same purposes and 
for the same time period as originally appropriated:
    Provided further, That, upon a determination by the 
Secretary of State, with the approval of the Office of 
Management and Budget, and the concurrence of the Secretary of 
Defense, that all or part of the funds transferred from this 
appropriation to the Department of State are not necessary for 
the purposes herein, such amounts may be transferred by the 
Secretary of State back to this appropriation and shall be 
available for the same purposes and for the same time period as 
originally appropriated:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense may 
obligate and expend funds transferred under this heading, 
notwithstanding any limitation in a provision of law that would 
otherwise restrict the amount or recipients of such support or 
assistance:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall 
exercise the authority provided in the previous proviso on a 
case-by-case basis, and only after certifying in writing to the 
Congress that it is in the national security interest to do so:
    Provided further, That funds provided herein for 
intelligence activities are deemed to be specifically 
authorized by the Congress for purposes of section 504(a)(1) of 
the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 3094(a)(1)):
    Provided further, That the amount provided under this 
heading 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, as amended:
    Provided further, That the amount provided under this 
heading shall be available only if the President designates 
such amount for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 
Terrorism pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A).
    This amendment would provide $4.0 billion for the 
Department of Defense (DOD) portion of the Counterterrorism 
Partnerships Fund (CTPF) announced by the President at West 
Point on May 28, 2014. DOD funds made available for the CTPF 
would enable the United States to enhance counterterrorism and 
crisis response activities undertaken by the U.S. military and 
provide enabling support to partners on the front lines against 
terrorism. CTPF funds will be used to support counterterrorism 
capacity-building efforts and/or combined counterterrorism 
operations in areas such as the Middle East, North Africa and 
the Sahel, the Horn of Africa, and South and Central Asia. In 
addition, CTPF funds will be used to expand or enhance U.S. 
capabilities and capacity needed to support counterterrorism 
goals (e.g., additional intelligence, surveillance, and 
reconnaissance capacity) and will allow DOD to respond more 
quickly and effectively to emergent crises related to 
counterterrorism.
    The CTPF builds primarily on existing authorities, but 
provides the Federal Government with expanded flexibility and 
resources to respond more nimbly to evolving terrorist threats 
and to further develop and invest in partnerships from South 
Asia to the Sahel in support of a sustainable and effective 
counterterrorism strategy. In addition, appropriating CTPF 
funding in a transfer account will provide the flexibility 
needed to effectively respond to diffuse terrorist networks and 
a rapidly changing security environment. Specific allocations 
of CTPF funding will be subject to congressional notification 
requirements as well as an interagency policy process jointly 
led by the National Security Council and the Office of 
Management and Budget in order to ensure integrated planning 
and comprehensive oversight of CTPF funds.
    The CTPF will also include the Syria Regional Stabilization 
Initiative (RSI). Funding under the RSI will build the capacity 
of the Syrian opposition and of neighboring countries including 
Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, and Iraq to manage the growing 
spillover effects of the Syrian conflict. The Administration 
will leverage existing security cooperation and assistance 
programs, expand training and related infrastructure, and 
tailor support packages to meet identified regional needs for 
areas contending with refugees and other destabilizing effects 
from the Syrian conflict. The Administration has included a 
proposed authority to provide defense articles and services to 
vetted elements of the Syrian armed opposition to help defend 
the Syrian people, stabilize areas under opposition control and 
facilitate the provision of essential services, counter 
terrorist threats, and promote conditions for a negotiated 
settlement. The RSI will make investments in the region now 
that can help build resilience in communities and strengthen 
internal and border security capabilities for the Syrian people 
and Syria's neighbors as they confront growing threats.

to remain available until September 30, 2016:
    Provided, That such funds shall be available, under the 
authority provided by any other provision of law, to provide 
support and assistance to allies and partner nations in Europe:
    Provided further, That such support and assistance may 
include training, equipment, and logistic supplies, support,

transferred from this appropriation are not necessary for the

appropriation and shall be available for the same purposes and 
for the same time period as originally appropriated:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense may 
obligate and expend funds transferred under this heading, 
notwithstanding any limitation in a provision of law within 
existing Department of Defense authorities that would otherwise 
restrict the amount of such support or assistance:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of Defense shall

case-by-case basis, and only after certifying in writing to the 
Congress that it is in the national security interest to do so:
    Provided further, That the amount provided under this

    Provided further, That the amount provided under this 
heading shall be available only if the President designates 
such amount for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 
Terrorism pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A).
    This amendment would create a new transfer account and 
provide $925 million to fund the DOD portion of the European 
Reassurance Initiative (ERI) proposed by the President in 
Warsaw on June 3, 2014. Funds made available for the ERI will 
enable the United States to increase military exercises, 
training, and presence in Europe, especially Central and 
Eastern Europe; increase U.S. naval force deployments to the 
Black and Baltic Seas; enhance our preparedness to reinforce 
NATO allies through the prepositioning of equipment; improve 
infrastructure at training and logistics facilities, especially 
in Central and Eastern Europe; and strengthen the capacity of 
partner states in Europe to operate alongside the United States 
and NATO and to defend their security. Building on existing 
authorities, appropriating ERI funding in a transfer account 
will provide flexibility and responsiveness to the evolving 
concerns of our allies and partners and allow time for the long 
planning horizons needed for exercises and deployments in a 
fluid security situation.

mission. This funding and the associated authorities are 
essential to support the ANSF as they work toward self-

Proposed Amendment: $1,000,000,000
Revised Request: $1,000,000,000

    (In the appropriations language under the above bureau just 
after the Bodoni dash and immediately before the heading 
``Global Security Contingency Fund'', insert the above new 
heading, the new subheading, the following new language, and a 
new Bodoni dash:)
    For the ``Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund'', 
$1,000,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2017:
    Provided, That such funds shall be available, 
notwithstanding any other provision of law, for the purposes of 
undertaking counterterrorism partnership efforts worldwide, 
responding to crises, and addressing regional instability from 
the conflict in Syria, (including, in addition to amounts 
otherwise available for such purposes, for administrative 
expenses):
    Provided further, That the Secretary of State shall, with 
the approval of the Office of Management and Budget, (1) 
transfer the funds provided herein to accounts under the 
headings ``Foreign Military Financing'', ``Nonproliferation, 
Antiterrorism, Demining and Related Programs'', ``International 
Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement'', ``Peacekeeping 
Operations'', ``Complex Crises Fund'', and ``Economic Support 
Fund'' or, (2) with the approval of the Office of Management 
and Budget and the concurrence of the Secretary of Defense, 
transfer and merge the funds provided herein with ``Department 
of Defense--Counterterrorism Partnerships Fund'':
    Provided further, That the transfer authority in the 
preceding proviso is in addition to any other transfer 
authority available to the Department of State:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of State shall, not 
fewer than 5 days prior to transferring amounts from this 
appropriation account, notify the Committees on Appropriations 
in writing of the details of any such transfer:
    Provided further, That the preceding proviso shall not 
apply to a transfer of funds if the Secretary of State 
determines that the national security objectives of the United 
States will be compromised by the application of the proviso, 
in which case the Secretary of State shall immediately notify 
the Committees on Appropriations within 3 days after such 
transfer that such transfer is necessary and provide any 
relevant information:
    Provided further, That, upon a determination by the 
Secretary of State with the approval of the Office of 
Management and Budget, that all or part of the funds 
transferred from this appropriation are not necessary for the 
purposes provided herein, such amounts may be transferred back 
to this appropriation and shall be available for the same 
purposes and for the same time period as originally 
appropriated:
    Provided further, That, upon a determination by the 
Secretary of Defense, with the approval of the Office of 
Management and Budget and the concurrence of the Secretary of 
State, that all or part of the funds transferred from this 
appropriation to the Department of Defense are not necessary 
for the purposes provided herein, such amounts may be 
transferred back to this appropriation and shall be available 
for the same purposes and for the same time period as 
originally appropriated:
    Provided further, That the amount provided under this 
heading 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, as amended:
    Provided further, That the amount provided under this 
heading shall be available only if the President designates 
such amount for Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on 
Terrorism pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A).
    This amendment would provide $1.0 billion for the 
Department of State/OIP's portion of the Counterterrorism 
Partnerships Fund (CTPF) announced by the President at West 
Point on May 28, 2014. Funds made available for the CTPF would 
enable the United States to enhance counterterrorism and crisis 
response activities and provide enabling support to partners on 
the front lines against terrorism. CTPF funds will be used to 
support counterterrorism capacity-building efforts in areas 
such as the Middle East, North Africa and the Sahel, the Horn 
of Africa, and South and Central Asia.
    The CTPF will also include the Syria Regional Stabilization 
Initiative (RSI). Funding under the RSI will build the capacity 
of the Syrian opposition and of neighboring countries including 
Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, and Iraq to manage the growing 
spillover effects of the Syrian conflict. The Administration 
will leverage existing security cooperation and assistance 
programs, expand training and related infrastructure, and 
tailor support packages to meet identified regional needs for 
areas contending with refugees and other destabilizing effects 
from the Syrian conflict. The RSI will make investments in the 
region now that can help build resilience in communities and 
strengthen internal and border security capabilities for the 
Syrian people and Syria's neighbors as they confront growing 
threats.
    The CTPF builds on existing authorities, but provides the 
Federal Government with expanded flexibility and resources to 
respond more nimbly to evolving terrorist threats and to 
further develop and invest in partnerships from South Asia to 
the Sahel in support of a sustainable and effective 
counterterrorism strategy. In addition, appropriating CTPF 
funding in a transfer account will provide the flexibility 
needed to effectively respond to diffuse terrorist networks and 
a rapidly changing security environment. Specific allocations 
of CTPF funding will be subject to congressional notification 
requirements as well as an interagency policy process jointly 
led by the National Security Council and the Office of 
Management and Budget in order to ensure integrated planning 
and comprehensive oversight of CTPF funds.
