$2,500,000,000 is rescinded from Development Assistance
What the document says“$2,500,000,000 are rescinded: Provided, That none of the funds rescinded under this paragraph shall be from the unobligated balances for Feed the Future Innovation Labs or the Countering PRC Influence Fund”
Paragraph (12), the rescission and its first proviso. It takes $2,500,000,000 of the unobligated balances under the account headed Bilateral Economic Assistance, Funds Appropriated to the President, Development Assistance, as made available by division A of Public Law 119-4, the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act, 2025. The proviso bars the rescission from being taken from balances for Feed the Future Innovation Labs or the Countering PRC Influence Fund. This is the largest rescission in the Act. The quotation starts at the amount because the printer broke the words Full-Year across a line above it.
What the document actually says“$2,500,000,000 are rescinded: Provided, That none of the funds rescinded under this paragraph shall be from the unobligated balances for Feed the Future Innovation Labs or the Countering PRC Influence Fund”
This takes back $2,500,000,000. Two things are shielded. One is a set of farm labs. The other is a China fund.
The money paid for long term aid work in poorer countries. It came from a 2025 spending law.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
