摘要

Congress agreed to fund FDA's food programs close to the Obama's administration's original budget request for fiscal 2011 under the recently released details of a budget deal brokered by the White House and Republicans. With the midnight deadline approaching on April 8, Congress and the White House hammered out a six-month spending deal to make $39 billion in cuts to the fiscal 2011 budget, less than the $61 billion in cuts sought after by House Republicans.
