Re: [liberationtech] US global internet freedom funding - FY 15 President's budget request
My reading of the text is that the whole section is under brackets, meaning that the text (from fy 14) request is - to be deleted. That is, there is no fy 15 internet freedom funding request,..

Re: [liberationtech] US global internet freedom funding - FY 15 President's budget request
For context, $50.5m was the FY14 omnibus appropriations bill amount. The President's budget is only one of many inputs into the actual appropriations that result. Not sure what the brackets signal. At State, much of our IF funding comes from funds that are not necessarily explicitly called out in the President's budget, the appropriations bill, or even our own Congressional Budget Justification. Don't Panic.
