Over-Budget Overseas: The State Department's Failure to Protect our Diplomats

House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
Abstract
The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform issues a majority staff report on the protection of American Diplomats. The committee found the Department's current approach to constructing diplomatic facilities abroad costs too much and takes too long. Additionally, new designs for abroad facilities are too big for current needs overseas.
