Notes

1.  Figures reflect actual expenditures for population and family planning programs and are separated into funding for bilateral programs managed by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the U.S. voluntary contributions to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). Between 1968 and 1992, however, the U.S. contribution to UNFPA was channeled through and administered by USAID and is reflected in the bilateral assistance column. Amounts in parentheses indicate the contribution made to UNFPA in each of those fiscal years.

   Figures on U.S. funding are for population assistance programs as defined by the U.S. government. Numbers do not reflect additional U.S. funds appropriated for other programs falling under the broader definition of population assistance adopted at the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development in Cairo, which incorporates expenditures for family planning, basic reproductive health care (such as safe motherhood), research, and services for HIV/AIDS and other sexually-transmitted diseases. In 1999, the latter category was expanded to include treatment, care and support activities, as well as prevention efforts.

   * Total expenditures for FY 2004 – $463.5 million including $429.5 million earmarked for bilateral family planning/reproductive health (FP/RH) programs and $34 million allocated to UNFPA in FY 2002 but withheld from UNFPA by the Bush Administration when it invoked the Kemp-Kasten amendment in July 2002. The reprogramming of the FY 2002 UNFPA contribution remained blocked by a congressional "hold" until January 2004 when the funds were reprogrammed to USAID FP/RH programs in a specified list of countries under the terms of the FY 2004 omnibus spending bill.

   Total expenditures for FY 2005 – $474.3 million including $437.3 million earmarked for bilateral FP/RH programs; $25 million withheld from the FY 2005 UNFPA contribution within the international organizations and programs account (IO&P) and reprogrammed to USAID for "family planning, maternal, and reproductive health activities;" and $12.5 million of the withheld FY 2004 UNFPA contribution reprogrammed to USAID FP/RH programs in a specified list of countries under the terms of the FY 2005 omnibus spending bill.

   Total expenditures for FY 2006 – $458.1 million including $435.6 million earmarked for bilateral FP/RH programs and $22.5 million earmarked for UNFPA within the IO&P account but withheld as a result of the Kemp-Kasten amendment and transferred to USAID's Child Survival and Health Programs Fund for "family planning, maternal, and reproductive health activities" under the terms of the FY 2006 foreign operations appropriations bill.

   With regard to withheld UNFPA contributions, it is also important to note that $25 million of the FY 2003 contribution and $12.5 million of the FY 2004 contribution were diverted to programs to combat sex trafficking at the insistence of the Bush Administration, contrary to congressional intent.

   # Bilateral figures in FY 2004 and FY 2005 reflect government-wide across-the-board cuts imposed on all non-defense, non-homeland security discretionary spending totals 0.59 percent and 0.83 percent respectively. The FY 2007 bilateral level is identical to the FY 2006 level under the terms of the FY 2007 continuing resolution.
