           The Honorable Christopher H. Smith
           House of Representatives

           Subject: Reproductive Health: Federal Funds That Supported Four NonDrofit
                     Organizations

           This letter responds to your request that we identify the amount of federal funding
           for fiscal years 1999 and 2000 that supported the domestic and international
           reproductive health activities of four nonprofit organizations and their affiliates-the
           Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the Population Council, the
           International Planned Parenthood Federation, and The Alan Guttmacher Institute-
           in addition to identifying the federal agencies that provided the funds and the
           congressional committees with jurisdiction to authorize or appropriate them. This
           information updates our letter of July 18, 2000, that provided funding information for
           fiscal years 1997 through 1998.'

           In brief, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America and its affiliates, the
           Population Council, the International Planned Parenthood Federation and its
           affiliated associations, and The Alan Guttmacher Institute used approximately $184
           million in federal funds for fiscal year 1999 and about $196 million in federal funds
           for fiscal year 2000 to support domestic and international activities related to
           reproductive health for individuals. (See table 1.) The Department of Health and
           Human Services (HHS) and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)
           were the major sources of these funds. Four committees in the Senate-Commerce,
           Science, and Transportation; Finance; Foreign Relations; and Health, Education,
           Labor, and Pensions--and four committees in the House of Representatives-Energy
           and Commerce, International Relations, Science, and Ways and Means-have
           jurisdiction over the authorization of the programs under which the funding was
           provided. In addition, the Senate and House Committees on Appropriations each
           have subcommittees that have jurisdiction over the appropriations for the programs
