    (a) Congressional Declarations.--The Congress declares that--
            (1) a fundamental goal of the United States, particularly 
        in the wake of the highly turbulent and uncertain international 
        situation fostered by the end of the Cold War, the 
        disintegration of the Soviet Union and the resulting emergence 
        of fifteen new independent states, and the revolutionary 
        changes in the Eastern Europe, is to reduce and control the 
        large numbers of nuclear and chemical weapons in the former 
        Soviet Union and, more generally, to prevent the proliferation 
        of weapons of mass destruction and of high-technology 
        conventional armaments as well as to prevent regional conflicts 
        and conventional arms races; and
            (2) an ultimate goal of the United States continues to be a 
        world in which the use of force is subordinated to the rule of 
        law and international change is achieved peacefully without the 
        danger and burden of destabilizing and costly armaments.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is--
            (1) to strengthen the United States Arms Control and 
        Disarmament Agency; and
            (2) to improve congressional oversight of the arms control, 
        nonproliferation, and disarmament activities of the United 
        States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency.
