President Donald Trump wants to cut funding for a number of federal
agencies, departments and programs under a 2018 budget blueprint
<http://src.bna.com/m1N> released March 16. But the U.S. presence in global
internet governance discussions is one thing that Trump says he won’t cut.

According to the proposal, the Trump administration will continue
supporting the National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s
participation in “multi-stakeholder forums” on internet governance and
digital commerce.
