Fully Funding our National Security Priorities Act
This bill requires the State Department and USAID to annually report unfunded priorities - programs critical to national security but lacking budget support - to Congress within 10 days of the President's budget submission. It mandates detailed reports listing each unfunded priority, its objectives, recommended funding amounts, and specific budget line items. The bill directly affects State Department and USAID operations by formalizing transparency around resource gaps, particularly concerning Indo-Pacific competition with China. It does not allocate new funds but creates a structured process for Congress to review and address underfunding.
