Default US spending cuts eliminate $377 million from UN
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/...73B7M220110412

From news article:
Congressional aides said the expected $377 million in cuts -- much of which would hit U.N. peacekeeping -- were unlikely to put the United States in arrears on its dues because it has built up significant credits at the United Nations that could be used. The reduction in U.N. funding was agreed upon as part of a deal reached by President Barack Obama and Republican and Democratic congressional leaders last week to pare $38 billion in spending during the current fiscal year, which ends September 30, and avoid a government shutdown
