This law cancels money that Congress had already set aside but that hasn't been spent yet, mostly for foreign aid and international programs — things like funding for the United Nations and other international organizations, disaster and refugee assistance abroad, democracy-building programs overseas, and economic aid to other countries. It also pulls back unspent funds from a few specific organizations: the U.S. Agency for International Development (which runs foreign aid programs), the Inter-American Foundation and U.S. African Development Foundation (which fund grassroots development projects in Latin America and Africa), the U.S. Institute of Peace (which works on conflict resolution abroad), and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (which helps fund PBS and NPR stations). Some money is protected and not being cut, including funds for fighting HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria, maternal and child health programs, food aid, and aid specifically to Jordan and Egypt. In practice, this means less money will flow to these international programs and organizations than Congress had originally approved, since the President requested these cuts and Congress passed this law to make them official.
