Administration Requests More War Funding
The administration requested another $100 billion in additional war spending for fiscal year 2007. If Congress appropriates the money as requested, total funding for the Iraq War this fiscal year will climb to nearly $140 billion with nearly a half trillion dollars allocated for the Iraq War in total.
NPP estimates that $78.1 billion of that amount is for the Iraq war. The supplemental request breaks down as follows:
| |

The following table shows the taxpayer cost of the Iraq War since it began. The state breakdowns are based on IRS data and the total of the Iraq War cost is based on Congressional legislation and the administration's most recent emergency request for additional spending in fiscal year 2007 (as presented February 5, 2007). The total does not include money requested by the administration for fiscal year 2008 or 2009.
