Honorable Carolyn B. Maloney
U.S. House of Representatives
Washington, DC 20515
Dear Congresswoman:
This letter and the attached tables provide the information on enacted funding for assistance to the
city of New York, as outlined in my letter of October 11, 2002. Of the almost $65 billion in budget
authority enacted through the three emergency supplemental appropriations acts dealing with
recovery from and response to terrorist attacks on the United States (Public Laws 107-38, 107-117,
and 107-206), $15.7 billion was provided for assistance to the city of New York. In addition, CBO
and the Joint Committee on Taxation estimate that businesses and individuals in New York City will
receive about $5 billion in tax relief over the 2002-2012 period under Public Law 107-147. Table
1 summarizes the appropriations for New York City, as well as the estimated revenue impact for
Public Law 107-147. The above amounts exclude compensation to victims of the September 11
attacks-the majority of which will go to families who lost relatives in the attack on the World Trade
Center.
Funds Appropriated for New York City
Three emergency supplemental appropriations acts enacted in fiscal years 2001 and 2002 provided
$15.7 billion in budget authority for assistance to New York City. The three acts, and the amount
of assistance provided are:
* The 2001 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Recovery from and Response
to Terrorist Attacks on the United States (Public Law 107-38), which provided
$1.9 billion,
*  The Department of Defense and Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Recovery
from and Response to Terrorist Attacks on the United States, 2002 (Public Law 107-
117), which provided $7.3 billion, and
*  The 2002 Supplemental Appropriations Act for Further Recovery from and Response to
Terrorist Attacks on the United States (Public Law 107-206), which provided $6.4
billion.
