Senator Joe Biden (DE)introduced legislationthat would ensure full payment of U.S. dues for UN peacekeeping operations. Current U.S. law limits the U.S. contribution to the UN peacekeeping budget to 25%, despite being assessed at 26%. To date, this spending cap has created an estimated $100 million in permanent new debt to the UN. S. 392 would lift the spending cap to allow the U.S. to pay arrears accrued since 2005 and to pay its full share of assessed peacekeeping dues through 2008. Full U.S. contributions to UN peacekeeping operations will help ensure the UN has enough resources to help break cycles of violence as countries emerge from conflict.
