"The State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs funding bill puts those words into action. It makes America stronger at home and respected again in the world. It restores American leadership by responding to global health threats, including the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. And it addresses urgent humanitarian needs while confronting the climate crisis."
"With unprecedented levels of human suffering and so many complicated challenges around the world, the bill rightfully increases funding for global health and the prevention of future pandemics and for migration, refugee, and disaster assistance, and continues our support for key allies and partner organizations such as the UN."
"The bill recommends $29 billion. This is an increase of $4.8 billion above the comparable fiscal year 2021 level."
“I’m proud that this bill makes long-overdue investments to care for our planet, fight the climate emergency, and meet our trust obligations to tribal nations. The bill prioritizes the protection and preservation of our landscapes and biodiversity.”
“Constructing the barracks, bases, and training facilities that our military needs is crucial to our country’s military readiness. Properly funding the Department of Veterans Affairs is how we deliver on the promise of medical care and other benefits that our Veterans have earned through service to our nation. The Related Agencies, including the American Battle Monuments Commission and Arlington Cemetery, demonstrate how we honor the sacrifices of those who served.”
