The first, submitted on March 2, 2022, included $5 billion for Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs (SFOPS) appropriations accounts, among other funding. On March 15, 2022, Congress enacted the Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act (USAA, P.L. 117-103, Div. N), which provided $6.8 billion for SFOPS accounts. The Administration's second supplemental funding request, submitted to Congress on April 28, called for an additional $14.75 billion in SFOPS funding related to Ukraine. On May 21, 2022, Congress enacted the Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act (AUSAA, P.L. 117-128), which included $18.946 billion for SFOPS accounts. March 2 Emergency Supplemental Funding Request and USAA The Administration's March 2 emergency supplemental funding request for Ukraine included $5 billion for SFOPS accounts as part of a broader package that would have provided a total of $10 billion for Ukraine and $22.5 billion for response activities related to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. According to the request, the $5 billion for SFOPS would have been divided among four appropriations accounts to bolster U.S. security and economic assistance to Ukraine as well as regional allies and partners and support lifesaving humanitarian assistance, including emergency food assistance, and additional support for vulnerable populations and communities. The Administration also proposed increased flexibility for SFOPS funding through changes to existing authorities, new transfer authorities to move funds between SFOPS accounts, and the authority to reprogram (i.e., to move funds within an account) both FY2022 and prior-year funds. The Administration asserted in the request that these changes would afford it maximum flexibility in supporting Ukraine, our European allies and partners, and other emergent global needs. Congress enacted the USAA on March 15, 2022. The measure included $6.8 billion for SFOPS appropriations accounts (Table 1), out of a total of $13.6 billion, as well as new authorities (Table 2).
