American Samoa's Joint Budget Committee has endorsed the budget for the fiscal year 2007.

The budget of 286.5 million US dollars went through after a cut of three quarters of a million dollars was made to the Special Programs' budget and re-allocated to seven agencies including the Fono.

The cut from Special Programs came from ceremonial activities, the Election Office, the Debt Service, and the Immigration Computer System.
