In Topic: Proposal To Remove

13 February 2012 - 12:50 PM

By Sari Horwitz President Obama’s fiscal 2013 budget proposes $36.5 billion in spending for the Justice Department, an increase of $1.9 billion from the previous year.

More than $700 million is proposed to combat financial, mortgage and other fraud, an increase of $55 million over the previous budget. The proposed funding would go toward more FBI agents, criminal prosecutors, civil litigators, in-house investigators and forensic accountants to investigate and prosecute financial fraud.

Noting a continuing downward trend in violent crime rates, the administration is proposing a slight decrease, to $12.4 billion, in funding for the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the U.S. Marshals.

The ATF, which has been battered this year with allegations of “gunwalking” to Mexico in a botched firearms operation out of its Phoenix division, would have its funding cut by $12 million. ATF officials and agents have long complained about a lack of resources.

An additional $138 million cut in law enforcement operations would come from “savings and administrative efficiencies.” Task forces with similar missions would be considered for consolidation or elimination, and gang and drug intelligence and operations would be streamlined, reduced or eliminated.

Justice Department officials cite “an alarming rise in intellectual property crimes” as the reason behind $40 million devoted to identifying and defeating intellectual property criminals, an increase of $5 million over the 2012 budget. Federal officials have already shut down 350 Web sites engaged in the illegal sale and distribution of counterfeit goods and copyrighted works, such as the recent <a target="_blank" href="http://www.washingto....html">shutdown of the popular Megaupload Web site. The budget proposes a $378 million cut in the Office of Justice Programs, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services and the Office on Violence Against Women.

The increase in funding for investigating and prosecuting financial crimes comes one week after the historic $25 billion settlement between federal and state officials and five of the nation’s largest banks to provide relief to distressed homeowners in the wake of the foreclosure crisis. It also comes weeks after Obama announced the creation of a task force aimed at investigating the shoddy mortgage-lending practices that contributed to the financial collapse of 2008.
