Summary:

A major issue facing the United Nations, the United States, and Congress concerning United Nations peacekeeping is the extent to which the United Nations has the capacity to restore or keep the peace in the changing world environment. Associated with this issue is the expressed need for a reliable source of funding and other resources for peacekeeping and improved efficiencies of operation. For the United States, major congressional considerations on U.N. peacekeeping stem from executive branch commitments made in the U.N. Security Council. The concern with these commitments, made through votes in the Council, is the extent to which they bind the United States, both militarily and financially, to fund and to participate in some way in an operation. This includes placing U.S. military personnel under the control of foreign commanders. […] On February 6, 2006, President Bush requested $1,135,327,000 for FY2007 contributions to U.N. peacekeeping assessed accounts and $200.5 million to fund U.S. assistance to international peacekeeping efforts of special concern. On February 16, 2006, Bush requested, in a FY2006 Supplemental, $69.8 million for CIPA and $123 million for PKO. On November 22, 2005, President Bush signed the State Department Appropriations Act, 2006 (P.L. 109-108, H.R. 2862) that provided the requested amount minus $376,752,000 in recisions for peacekeeping assessments. Issues for the 109th Congress include whether the peacekeeping cap of 25% on assessed payments will be increased to 27.1%.
