Key members of the administration’s National Security team—Deputy Secretary Lynn and Secretary Clinton among them—and key congressional leaders have expressed support for a National Security Budget that would allow the overall balance of resources devoted to military forces, homeland security and non-military international affairs to be considered as an integrated whole.

A taskforce of experts in each of these dimensions of security has been making this case since 2004 in an annual report, A Unified Security Budget for the United States. The taskforce leaders,

• Lawrence Korb, senior fellow, Center for American Progress
• Miriam Pemberton, research fellow, Institute for Policy Studies, and
• William Johnstone, Partnership for a Security America

will report on the overall balance of resources in the FY 2011 budget request, make the case for a rebalanced portfolio, and discuss the ways and means of getting one.
