Obama Seeks $6.2 Billion to Combat Ebola: Officials





According to officials familiar with the request, president Barack Obama will ask the U.S. Congress to approve $6.2 billion in new funds this fiscal year to combat Ebola in West Africa and the United States. The money will be designated as "emergency" funds and thus technically not subject to an equal amount of savings from other programs, according to one congressional aide briefed on the matter. According to an official at the White House's Office of Management and Budget, the administration wants lawmakers to provide $4.5 billion in funds for immediate response to the deadly disease and another $1.5 billion in contingency money. http://bit.ly/10o4Rz0 http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ
