FY 2017 State and Defense Department Supplemental Budget and Justification
President Obama has asked Congress to consider Fiscal Year 2017 Budget amendments for national security activities at the Department of Defense (DOD) , the Department of State (State), and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to fund Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) . These amendments would provide $5.8 billion for DOD OCO activities to support the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces, and to degrade and ultimately defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), including through military operations as part of Operation Inherent Resolve. For State and USAID, a total of $5.8 billion would support the Administration's counter-ISIL and counterterrorism objectives, including the efforts to implement the diplomatic engagement, governance, and stabilization components of my Administration's counter-ISIL strategy, strengthen embassy security, and respond to relief and recovery needs, as well as provide additional humanitarian assistance for areas liberated from ISIL and other unforeseen needs.
