On February 13, 2012, President Obama sent a proposed fiscal year (FY) 2013 budget request to Congress. In general, programs affecting historians, archivists and other National Coalition for History (NCH) stakeholders would receive funding levels comparable to those they received in the FY '12 budget.

From 2000 to 2010, the Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad Program (DDRA) supported thesis research of 87 graduate students in political science. As a result of cuts in the FY 2011 federal budget, the Department of Education announced in May that this year's competition would be cancelled. DDRA was one of six programs that were cancelled in 2011 when Congress significantly reduced appropriations for Title VI and Fulbright-Hays programs that promote international education (the other competitions/programs are Undergraduate International Studies and Foreign Language; International Research and Studies; Fulbright-Hays Faculty Research Abroad Fellowship; Business and International Education; and American Overseas Research Centers). The DDRA program had provided funding for graduate students to spend up to one year abroad in countries outside of Western Europe since it was first funded in 1964.
