The Denton Amendment is administered by which agency and allows for what?

• A. Administered by USAID and allows for the transport of humanitarian goods on a space available basis using U.S. Military transportation.
• B. Administered by DoD and allows for requisition of military aircraft.
• C. Administered by DOS and allows refugee resettlement.
• D. Administered by USAID and allows civilian contractors to use military assets for any purpose.

Answer: (A)

The Denton Amendment is about enabling humanitarian logistics by using U.S. military airlift on a space-available basis, under USAID oversight. It allows humanitarian goods to be transported using DoD aircraft when there is unused capacity, rather than requiring chartered or dedicated flights. This administration by USAID reflects the focus on delivering aid efficiently, not on requisitioning military assets for general use or resettling refugees, and it isn’t about DOS refugee programs or broad civilian-contractor access to military assets.
