Funding: Defense Appropriations
Updated April 25, 2024
Background
On October 20, 2023, the Biden Administration submitted to Congress a request for FY2024 emergency
supplemental appropriations to address key national security priorities. President Biden characterized
the request as a response to Hamas' terrorist attacks against Israel and the ongoing Russian invasion of
Ukraine, and asked for approximately $58.6 billion in budget authority for the Department of Defense
(DOD), as well as funds for other executive departments and agencies (e.g., the Departments of State and
Homeland Security).
On February 13, 2024, the Senate passed the National Security Act, 2024 (H.R. 815), which would have,
among other things, provided approximately $67.3 billion in budget authority to DOD for purposes
relating to Ukraine, Israel, and the submarine industrial base. The House did not take up this bill, as
passed by the Senate.
On April 20, 2024, the House passed a series of bills-including the Israel Security Supplemental
Appropriations Act, 2024 (H.R. 8034), the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024
(H.R. 8035), and the Indo-Pacific Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 (H.R. 8036)-that
included approximately $67.3 billion in DOD budget authority for purposes relating to Israel, Ukraine,
and the Indo-Pacific. On April 23, 2024, the Senate approved these measures as a consolidated bill (H.R.
815), and on April 24, 2024, President Biden signed this bill into law as P.L. 118-50.
The enacted appropriations included funding for military personnel (MILPERS); operation and
maintenance (O&M); research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E); procurement; and military
construction (MILCON) accounts, as well as for Defense Production Act of 1950 (DPA) purchases. P.L.
118-50 also made appropriations for non-defense accounts, and included policy provisions-such as the
increase of Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA; 22 U.S.C. §2318) from $100 million to $7.8 billion
for FY2024-relevant to defense issues.
