   No funding opportunity was restricted to new and underutilized partners on the New Partnerships Initiative model, and DDI no longer exists to issue one. Cluster negative search A, plus a targeted full-text check: "New Partnerships Initiative" and "new and underutilized partners" each return 0 Federal Register documents for the window, both phrases are absent from P.L. 119-75, and neither appears in the Corpus. The nearest movement is adjacent, not this ask: P.L. 119-75 §7011(a)(2)(D) requires State's foreign-assistance effectiveness strategy to analyze increasing partnerships with local organizations "including specific plans to provide grants, cooperative agreements, and other awards of not more than $2,000,000", and State's July 2026 report to Congress records "not less than $1.9 billion in development assistance to local entities" obligated in FY2024–25. Under §3b — progress is measured on this ask — requiring a strategy that analyzes local partnerships is not restricting a funding opportunity to new and underutilized partners.

   • Report to Congress, "Advancing Locally Led Development and Humanitarian Response" (SFOAA §7019(e), Div. F of P.L. 119-75) — government-to-government assistance, AFGHS bilateral health MOUs and the OCHA pooled-fund MOU; "not less than $1.9 billion in development assistance to local entities" in FY2024–25
