Senate Appropriators Release FY 2023 Bill With $475 Million for WASH and 14.7% Overall Increase for International Affairs
Senators Endorse Same Level for WASH as in FY 2022, While House Bill Recommends Jump to $500 Million
Washington DC, July 28, 2022 – U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT) today released the majority committee draft of appropriations for Fiscal Year 2023 for the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Millennium Challenge Corporation, and related agencies that would increase overall international affairs non-emergency funding by 14.7 percent, to $66.5 billion.
USAID programs under the Senator Paul Simon Water for the Poor Act of 2005 (as amended by the Water for the World Act of 2014) would receive at least their current level of enacted funding for FY 2022, $475 million. That FY 2022 amount was an increase of $25 million over the previous FY 2021 WASH level of $450 million.
If the past is a guide, final action to bring the two versions together and make a final bill will take us into autumn. Being an election year, Congress will leave town all of October for the final campaign push, and resume business – probably including FY 23 – after the November 8 election.

Millennium Water Alliance, Swiss Development Corporation Launch New Five-Year Water and Resilience Program in Kenya
World Water Day Event Opens $15.3 Million Kenya RAPID Plus, Building on MWA’s Innovative Kenya RAPID Program in Five Counties in Northern Kenya
Nairobi, Kenya, March 24, 2022 – The Swiss Ambassador to Kenya joined representatives of the Kenyan Government, local and international nongovernmental organizations, and private sector partners on World Water Day (March 22) to launch Kenya RAPID Plus (the Kenya Resilient Arid Lands Partnership for Integrated Development, also now known as RAPID+), a major effort to accelerate access to safe drinking water and rangeland services for more than 200,000 people in Turkana, Garissa, Isiolo, Marsabit, and Wajir counties.
The program began organizing in November last year, but with the formal launch this week, it will now engage multiple partners for increasing access in pastoralist communities to sustainable water for multiple personal and agricultural uses, and to improve the health of rangeland resources critical to likelihoods in this region. The Swiss Development Corporation (SDC) is the primary funder, with contributions from implementing nongovernmental organizations and others for a total of $15, 365,239 USD through October 2026.

The Mortenson Center in Global Engineering (MCGE) at the University of Colorado Boulder trains engineers to work in partnership with institutions and communities worldwide to develop improved tools and methods to address global challenges. Our program is based on the principle that students educated in Global Engineering will be prepared to solve engineering and science problems within the socioeconomic, environmental and political constraints often encountered in lower-resource settings. We combine education, research and partnerships to positively impact vulnerable people and their environment. Our vision is a world where everyone has safe water, sanitation, energy, food, shelter, and infrastructure. The Mortenson Center details its approach in a newly released article: A Body of Knowledge and Pedagogy for Global Engineers.
One of the Mortenson Center’s initiatives, in collaboration with the Millennium Water Alliance, is the Drought Resilience Impact Platform (DRIP) which is aimed at ending the cycle of drought emergencies in the arid regions of Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia.
