                            demonstration</DELETED>

    <DELETED>    Sec. 204. (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this demonstration
    is to give public housing agencies and the Secretary of Housing and
    Urban Development the flexibility to design and test various approaches
    for providing and administering housing assistance that: reduce cost
    and achieve greater cost effectiveness in Federal expenditures; give
    incentives to families with children where the head of household is
    working, seeking work, or is preparing for work by participating in job
    training, educational programs, or programs that assist people to
    obtain employment and become economically self-sufficient; and increase
    housing choices for low-income families.</DELETED>
    <DELETED>    (b) Program Authority.--The Secretary of Housing and Urban
    Development shall conduct a demonstration program under this section
    beginning in fiscal year 1996 under which up to 30 public housing
    agencies (including Indian housing authorities) administering the
    public or Indian housing program and the section 8 housing assistance
    payments program, administering a total number of public housing units
    not in excess of 25,000, may be selected by the Secretary to
    participate. The Secretary shall provide training and technical
    assistance during the demonstration and conduct detailed evaluations of
    up to 15 such agencies in an effort to identify replicable program
    models promoting the purpose of the demonstration. Under the
    demonstration, notwithstanding any provision of the United States
    Housing Act of 1937 except as provided in subsection (e), an agency may
    combine operating assistance provided under section 9 of the United
    States Housing Act of 1937, modernization assistance provided under
    section 14 of such Act, and assistance provided under section 8 of such
    Act for the certificate and voucher programs, to provide housing
    assistance for low-income families, as defined in section 3(b)(2) of
    the United States Housing Act of 1937, and services to facilitate the
    transition to work on such terms and conditions as the agency may
    propose and the Secretary may approve.</DELETED>
    <DELETED>    (c) Application.--An application to participate in the
    demonstration--</DELETED>
            <DELETED>    (1) shall request authority to combine assistance

            <DELETED>    (3) shall include a plan developed by the agency
            that takes into account comments from the public hearing and

                    Act of 1937, and at least 50 percent of the families

                    may establish income ceilings higher or lower than 30
                    percent of the median for the area on the basis of the
                    Secretary's findings that such variations are necessary
                    because of unusually high or low family
                    income;</DELETED>
                    <DELETED>    (B) establishing a reasonable rent policy,

            <DELETED>    (4) may request assistance for training and
            technical assistance to assist with design of the demonstration
            and to participate in a detailed evaluation.</DELETED>
    <DELETED>    (d) Selection.--In selecting among applications, the
    Secretary shall take into account the potential of each agency to plan
    and carry out a program under the demonstration, the relative
    performance by an agency under the public housing management assessment
    program under section 6(j) of the United States Housing Act of 1937,

    Comprehensive Grant Program Allocations.--The amount of assistance
    received under section 8, section 9, or pursuant to section 14 by a
    public housing agency participating in the demonstration under this

    initiate a demonstration program with respect to multifamily projects

    multifamily projects can be supported with or without mortgage
    insurance under the National Housing Act and with or without above-

    into account the need for assistance of low- and very low-income
    families in such projects. In carrying out this demonstration, the
    Secretary may use arrangements with third parties, under which the
    Secretary may provide for the assumption by the third parties (by
    delegation, contract, or otherwise) of some or all of the functions,
    obligations, and benefits of the Secretary.</DELETED>

            this section in a manner that--</DELETED>
                    <DELETED>    (A) will protect the financial interests
                    of the Federal Government;</DELETED>
                    <DELETED>    (B) will result in significant
                    discretionary cost savings through debt restructuring
                    and subsidy reduction; and</DELETED>
                    <DELETED>    (C) will, in the least costly fashion,
                    address the goals of--</DELETED>
                            <DELETED>    (i) maintaining existing housing
                            stock in a decent, safe, and sanitary
                            condition;</DELETED>
                            <DELETED>    (ii) minimizing the involuntary
                            displacement of tenants;</DELETED>
                            <DELETED>    (iii) restructuring the mortgages
                            of such projects in a manner that is consistent
                            with local housing market conditions;</DELETED>
                            <DELETED>    (iv) supporting fair housing
                            strategies;</DELETED>

                            on residential neighborhoods.</DELETED>
            <DELETED>In determining the manner in which a mortgage is to be
            restructured or the subsidy reduced, the Secretary may balance
            competing goals relating to individual projects in a manner
            that will further the purposes of this section.</DELETED>

    1995''.

    SEC. 802. APPROPRIATE REMEDIES FOR PRISON CONDITIONS.

        (a) In General.--Section 3626 of title 18, United States Code, is
    amended to read as follows:
    ``Sec. 3626. Appropriate remedies with respect to prison conditions
        ``(a) Requirements for Relief.--
                ``(1) Prospective relief.--(A) Prospective relief in any
            civil action with respect to prison conditions shall extend no
            further than necessary to correct the violation of the Federal
            right of a particular plaintiff or plaintiffs. The court shall
            not grant or approve any prospective relief unless the court
            finds that such relief is narrowly drawn, extends no further
            than necessary to correct the violation of the Federal right,
            and is the least intrusive means necessary to correct the
            violation of the Federal right. The court shall give
            substantial weight to any adverse impact on public safety or
            the operation of a criminal justice system caused by the
            relief.
                ``(B) The court shall not order any prospective relief that
            requires or permits a government official to exceed his or her
            authority under State or local law or otherwise violates State
            or local law, unless--
                        ``(i) Federal law permits such relief to be ordered
                    in violation of State or local law;
                        ``(ii) the relief is necessary to correct the
                    violation of a Federal right; and
                        ``(iii) no other relief will correct the violation
                    of the Federal right.
                ``(C) Nothing in this section shall be construed to
            authorize the courts, in exercising their remedial powers, to
            order the construction of prisons or the raising of taxes, or
            to repeal or detract from otherwise applicable limitations on
            the remedial powers of the courts.
                ``(2) Preliminary injunctive relief.--In any civil action
            with respect to prison conditions, to the extent otherwise
            authorized by law, the court may enter a temporary restraining
            order or an order for preliminary injunctive relief.
            Preliminary injunctive relief must be narrowly drawn, extend no
            further than necessary to correct the harm the court finds
            requires preliminary relief, and be the least intrusive means
            necessary to correct that harm. The court shall give
            substantial weight to any adverse impact on public safety or
            the operation of a criminal justice system caused by the
            preliminary relief and shall respect the principles of comity
            set out in paragraph (1)(B) in tailoring any preliminary
            relief. Preliminary injunctive relief shall automatically
            expire on the date that is 90 days after its entry, unless the
            court makes the findings required under subsection (a)(1) for
            the entry of prospective relief and makes the order final
            before the expiration of the 90-day period.
                ``(3) Prisoner release order.--(A) In any civil action with
            respect to prison conditions, no prisoner release order shall
            be entered unless--
                        ``(i) a court has previously entered an order for
                    less intrusive relief that has failed to remedy the
                    deprivation of the Federal right sought to be remedied
                    through the prisoner release order; and
                        ``(ii) the defendant has had a reasonable amount of
                    time to comply with the previous court orders.
                ``(B) In any civil action in Federal court with respect to
            prison conditions, a prisoner release order shall be entered
            only by a three-judge court in accordance with section 2284 of
            title 28, if the requirements of subparagraph (E) have been
            met.
                ``(C) A party seeking a prisoner release order in Federal
            court shall file with any request for such relief, a request
            for a three-judge court and materials sufficient to demonstrate
            that the requirements of subparagraph (A) have been met.
                ``(D) If the requirements under subparagraph (A) have been
            met, a Federal judge before whom a civil action with respect to
            prison conditions is pending who believes that a prison release
            order should be considered may sua sponte request the convening
            of a three-judge court to determine whether a prisoner release
            order should be entered.
                ``(E) The three-judge court shall enter a prisoner release
            order only if the court finds by clear and convincing evidence
            that--
                        ``(i) crowding is the primary cause of the
                    violation of a Federal right; and

                    the Federal right.
                ``(F) Any State or local official or unit of government
            whose jurisdiction or function includes the appropriation of
            funds for the construction, operation, or maintenance of
            program facilities, or the prosecution or custody of persons
            who may be released from, or not admitted to, a prison as a
            result of a prisoner release order shall have standing to
            oppose the imposition or continuation in effect of such relief
            and to seek termination of such relief, and shall have the
            right to intervene in any proceeding relating to such relief.
        ``(b) Termination of Relief.--
                ``(1) Termination of prospective relief.--(A) In any civil
            action with respect to prison conditions in which prospective
            relief is ordered, such relief shall be terminable upon the
            motion of any party or intervener--
                        ``(i) 2 years after the date the court granted or
                    approved the prospective relief;

                    an order denying termination of prospective relief

                ``(B) Nothing in this section shall prevent the parties
            from agreeing to terminate or modify relief before the relief
            is terminated under subparagraph (A).

            civil action with respect to prison conditions, a defendant or
            intervener shall be entitled to the immediate termination of
            any prospective relief if the relief was approved or granted in
            the absence of a finding by the court that the relief is
            narrowly drawn, extends no further than necessary to correct
            the violation of the Federal right, and is the least intrusive
            means necessary to correct the violation of the Federal right.
                ``(3) Limitation.--Prospective relief shall not terminate
            if the court makes written findings based on the record that
            prospective relief remains necessary to correct a current or
            ongoing violation of the Federal right, extends no further than
            necessary to correct the violation of the Federal right, and
            that the prospective relief is narrowly drawn and the least
            intrusive means to correct the violation.

            this section shall prevent any party or intervener from seeking
            modification or termination before the relief is terminable

            termination would otherwise be legally permissible.

    Statutes of the United States (42 U.S.C. 1983) or any other Federal
    law. Notwithstanding any other law or rule of procedure, such waiver

    brought under this section if it finds that the plaintiff has a

                        (A) Content standards in the core academic subjects
                    that are developed by working with the District of
                    Columbia community, which standards shall be developed
                    not later than 12 months after the date of enactment of
                    this Act.

                    teachers using the standards and curriculum developed
                    under subparagraphs (A) and (B).

            comparisons among--
                        (A) individual District of Columbia public schools
                    and public charter schools, and individual students
                    attending such schools; and
                        (B) students of other nations.

    Force to be world class, including having a level of quality and rigor,
    or being analogous to content standards and assessments of other States
    or nations (including nations whose students historically score high on
    international studies of student achievement).
        (d) Submission to Board of Education for Adoption.--If the content
    standards, curriculum, assessments, and programs recommended under
    subsection (b) are approved by the Superintendent, the Superintendent
    may submit such content standards, curriculum, assessments, and

                        (A) the annual payment to the Board of Education
                    for the operating expenses of the District of Columbia

            (3), the amount of the annual payment under paragraph (1) shall
            be calculated by multiplying a uniform dollar amount used in

                    2502 that are enrolled at District of Columbia public

                    District of Columbia public schools or each public
                    charter school based on a calculation of--
                                (i) the number of students served by such
                            schools in certain grade levels; and

                    payment under paragraph (1) to increase the amount of
                    such payment if a District of Columbia public school or
                    a public charter school serves a high number of
                    students--
                                (i) with special needs; or
                                (ii) who do not meet minimum literacy

    SEC. 2852. PRIMARY PURPOSE AND FINDINGS.

        (a) Purpose.--The primary purpose of the Consensus Commission is to
    assist in developing a long-term reform plan that has the support of
    the District of Columbia community through the participation of
    representatives of various critical segments of such community in
    helping to develop and approve the plan.
        (b) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
                (1) experience has shown that the failure of the District
            of Columbia educational system has been due more to the failure
            to implement a plan than the failure to develop a plan;
                (2) national studies indicate that 50 percent of secondary
            school graduates lack basic literacy skills, and over 30
            percent of the 7th grade students in the District of Columbia
            public schools drop out of school before graduating;
                (3) standard student assessments indicate only average
            performance for grade level and fail to identify individual
            students who lack basic skills, allowing too many students to
            graduate lacking these basic skills and diminishing the worth
            of a diploma;
                (4) experience has shown that successful schools have good
            community, parent, and business involvement;
                (5) experience has shown that reducing dropout rates in the
            critical middle and secondary school years requires individual
            student involvement and attention through such activities as
            arts or athletics; and
                (6) experience has shown that close coordination between
            educators and business persons is required to provide
            noncollege-bound students the skills necessary for employment,
            and that personal attention is vitally important to assist each
            student in developing an appropriate career path.

    SEC. 2853. DUTIES AND POWERS OF THE CONSENSUS COMMISSION.

        (a) Primary Responsibility.--The Board of Education and the

            school years, and establish procedures to ensure that a teacher
            is made accountable for the performance of every such student
            in such teacher's class;
                (4) make recommendations to improve community, parent, and

            of individual career paths.

                (1) To monitor and comment on the development and

            subtitle, the Consensus Commission shall have no powers to
            involve itself in the management or operation of the Board of

            remain available without fiscal year limitation, as an
            emergency fund in the event of natural or other disasters to

        ``(d) Within the amounts allocated for infrastructure pursuant to
    this section, and subject to the specific allocations made in
    subsection (c), additional contributions may be made, as set forth in
    appropriations Acts, to assist in the resettlement of Rongelap Atoll:
    Provided, That the total of all contributions from any Federal source
    after enactment of this Act may not exceed $32,000,000 and shall be
    contingent upon an agreement, satisfactory to the President, that such
    contributions are a full and final settlement of all obligations of the
    United States to assist in the resettlement of Rongelop Atoll and that
    such funds will be expended solely on resettlement activities and will

    contributions in a timely manner, each Federal agency providing
    assistance or services, or conducting activities, in the Republic of
    the Marshall Islands, is authorized to make funds available through the
    Secretary of the Interior, to assist in the resettlement of Rongelap.

    Free Association Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-239, 99 Stat. 1770, 1792)
    including for individuals choosing not to resettle at Rongelap, except
    that no such assistance for such individuals may be provided until the
    Secretary notifies the Congress that the full amount of all funds

    or local governments under other law concerning the distribution of
    revenues derived from the affected lands, which are in excess of
    $37,500,000 (hereinafter ``excess revenues'') shall be deposited into
    the Funds. The distribution of excess revenues between the Agriculture
    Fund and Interior Fund shall be calculated by multiplying the total of
    excess revenues times a fraction with a denominator of the total
    revenues received from all sales released under such section 2001(k)
    and numerators of the total revenues received from such sales on lands
    within the National Forest System and the total revenues received from
    such sales on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management,
    respectively: Provided, That revenues or portions thereof from sales
    released under such section 2001(k), minus the amounts necessary for
    State and local government payments and other necessary deposits, may
    be deposited into the Funds immediately upon receipt thereof and

    States Treasury as miscellaneous receipts as may be required when the
    calculation of excess revenues is made.

    the Interior Fund pursuant to subsection (a)--
                (A) seventy-five percent shall be available, without fiscal

            for Disaster Assistance and Rescissions Act, which--
                        (i) are situated on lands within the National

                        (ii) are in addition to timber sales for which
                    funds are otherwise available in this Act or other
                    appropriations Acts; and
                (B) twenty-five percent shall be available, without fiscal
            year limitation or further appropriation, to expend on the
            backlog of recreation projects on lands within the National
            Forest System and lands administered by the Bureau of Land
            Management, respectively.

    sales may include expenditures for Forest Service activities within the
    forest land management budget line item and associated timber roads,
    and Bureau of Land Management activities within the Oregon and
    California grant lands account and the forestry management area
    account, as determined by the Secretary concerned.
        (c) Revenues received from any timber sale prepared under
    subsection (b) or under this subsection, minus the amounts necessary
    for State and local government payments and other necessary deposits,
    shall be deposited into the Fund from which funds were expended on such
    sale. Such deposited revenues shall be available for preparation of
    additional timber sales and completion of additional recreation
    projects in accordance with the requirements set forth in subsection
    (b).
        (d) The Secretary concerned shall terminate all payments into the
    Agriculture Fund or the Interior Fund, and pay any unobligated funds in
    the affected Fund into the United States Treasury as miscellaneous
    receipts, whenever the Secretary concerned makes a finding, published
    in the Federal Register, that sales sufficient to achieve the total
    allowable sales quantity of the National Forest System for the Forest
    Service or the allowable sales level for the Oregon and California
    grant lands for the Bureau of Land Management, respectively, have been
    prepared.
        (e) Any timber sales prepared and recreation projects completed
    under this section shall comply with all applicable environmental and
    natural resource laws and regulations.
        (f) The Secretary concerned shall report annually to the Committees
    on Appropriations of the United States Senate and the House of
    Representatives on expenditures made from the Fund for timber sales and
    recreation projects, revenues received into the Fund from timber sales,
    and timber sale preparation and recreation project work undertaken
    during the previous year and projected for the next year under the
    Fund. Such information shall be provided for each Forest Service region

                (b) The Chairperson shall establish procedures to ensure
            that no funding provided through a grant, except a grant made
            to a State or regional group, may be used to make a grant to
            any other organization or individual to conduct activity
            independent of the direct grant recipient. Nothing in this
            subsection shall prohibit payments made in exchange for goods
            and services.

    which the National Endowment for the Arts was established, among which
    are--
                (1) ``The arts and humanities belong to all the people of
            the United States'';
                (2) ``The arts and humanities reflect the high place
            accorded by the American people .  .  . to the fostering of
            mutual respect for the diverse beliefs and values of all
            persons and groups'';
                (3) ``Public funding of the arts and humanities is subject
            to the conditions that traditionally govern the use of public
            money [and] such funding should contribute to public support
            and confidence in the use of taxpayer funds''; and
                (4) ``Public funds provided by the Federal Government must
            ultimately serve public purposes the Congress defines''.
        (b) Additional Congressional Findings.--Congress further finds and
    declares that the use of scarce funds, which have been taken from all
    taxpayers of the United States, to promote, disseminate, sponsor, or
    produce any material or performance that--
                (1) denigrates the religious objects or religious beliefs
            of the adherents of a particular religion, or
                (2) depicts or describes, in a patently offensive way,
            sexual or excretory activities or organs,
    is contrary to the express purposes of the National Foundation on the
    Arts and the Humanities Act of 1965, as amended.
        (c) Prohibition on Funding That Is Not Consistent With the Purposes
    of the Act.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, none of the
    scarce funds which have been taken from all taxpayers of the United
    States and made available under this Act to the National Endowment for
    the Arts may be used to promote, disseminate, sponsor, or produce any
    material or performance that--
                (1) denigrates the religious objects or religious beliefs
            of the adherents of a particular religion, or
                (2) depicts or describes, in a patently offensive way,
            sexual or excretory activities or organs,
    and this prohibition shall be strictly applied without regard to the
    content or viewpoint of the material or performance.
        (d) Section Not To Affect Other Works.--Nothing in this section
    shall be construed to affect in any way the freedom of any artist or
    performer to create any material or performance using funds which have

    and the rent will be subject to the fair market rent of the payment
    standard, as applicable, under existing program rules and procedures:

            14(q) of the United States Housing Act of 1937 is amended to
            read as follows:
        ``(q)(1) In addition to the purposes enumerated in subsections (a)
    and (b), a public housing agency may use modernization assistance
    provided under section 14, and development assistance provided under
    section 5(a) that was not allocated, as determined by the Secretary,

    revitalization, and replacement of existing units and projects and, for
    up to 10 percent of its allocation of such funds in any fiscal year,
    for any operating subsidy purpose authorized in section 9. Except for
    assistance used for operating subsidy purposes under the preceding
    sentence, assistance provided to a public housing agency under this
    section shall principally be used for the physical improvement,
    replacement of public housing, other capital purposes, and for
    associated management improvements, and such other extraordinary
    purposes as may be approved by the Secretary. Low-income and very low-
    income units assisted under this paragraph shall be eligible for
    operating subsidies, unless the Secretary determines that such units or
    projects do not meet other requirements of this Act.
        ``(2) A public housing agency may provide assistance to
    developments that include units for other than units assisted under
    this Act (except for units assisted under section 8 hereof) (`mixed
    income developments'), in the form of a grant, loan, operating
    assistance, or other form of investment which may be made to--
                ``(A) a partnership, a limited liability company, or other
            legal entity in which the public housing agency or its
            affiliate is a general partner, managing member, or otherwise
            participates in the activities of such entity; or
                ``(B) any entity which grants to the public housing agency
            the option to purchase the development within 20 years after
            initial occupancy in accordance with section 42(i)(7) of the
            Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
                ``Units shall be made available in such developments for
            periods of not less than 30 years, by master contract or by
            individual lease, for occupancy by low-income and very low-
            income families referred from time to time by the public
            housing agency from its central or site-based waiting list. The
            number of such units shall be:
                        ``(i) in the same proportion to the total number of
                    units in such development that the total financial
                    commitment provided by the public housing agency bears
                    to the value of the total financial commitment in the
                    development, or
                        ``(ii) not be less than the number of units that
                    could have been developed under the conventional public
                    housing program with the assistance involved, or
                        ``(iii) as may otherwise be approved by the
                    Secretary.
        ``(3) A mixed income development may elect to have all units
    subject only to the applicable local real estate taxes, notwithstanding
    that the low-income units assisted by public housing funds would
    otherwise be subject to section 6(d) of the Housing Act of 1937.
        ``(4) If an entity that owns or operates a mixed-income project
    under this subsection enters into a contract with a public housing
    agency, the terms of which obligate the entity to operate and maintain
    a specified number of units in the project as public housing units in
    accordance with the requirements of this Act for the period required by
    law, such contractual terms may provide that, if, as a result of a
    reduction in appropriations under section 9, or any other change in
    applicable law, the public housing agency is unable to fulfill its
    contractual obligations with respect to those public housing units,
    that entity may deviate, under procedures and requirements developed
    through regulations by the Secretary, from otherwise applicable
    restrictions under this Act regarding rents, income eligibility, and
    other areas of public housing management with respect to a portion or
    all of those public housing units, to the extent necessary to preserve
    the viability of those units while maintaining the low-income character
    of the units, to the maximum extent practicable.''.

            provided from funds made available for fiscal year 1996 or any

    undertaken, on, before, or after September 30, 1995 and before

    reconsidering a final order of a court issued, or a settlement approved
    by, a court.''.

                (5) for which the estimated cost of continued operation and

            the United States Housing Act of 1937 for all families in
            occupancy, based on appropriate indicators of cost (such as the

                    timely manner;

                    subsection (a); or

            the inventory of the public housing agency pursuant to this
            section.
        (c) Removal of Units From the Inventories of Public Housing
    Agencies.--
                (1) Each public housing agency shall develop and carry out

            inventory of the public housing agency and the annual
            contributions contract. The plan shall be approved by the
            relevant local official as not inconsistent with the

            develop a plan under paragraph (1), or fails to adequately
            implement such plan in accordance with the terms of the plan.
                (4) To the extent approved in appropriations Acts, the
            Secretary may establish requirements and provide funding under
            the Urban Revitalization Demonstration program for demolition

                        (B) in the case of an agency receiving public and
                    Indian housing modernization assistance by formula
                    pursuant to section 14 of the United States Housing Act
                    of 1937, any amounts provided to the agency which are
                    attributable pursuant to the formula for allocating
                    such assistance to the development removed from the
                    inventory of that agency; and
                        (C) in the case of an agency receiving assistance
                    for the major reconstruction of obsolete projects, any
                    amounts obligated by the Secretary for the major
                    reconstruction of the development pursuant to section 5
                    of such Act,
            to the tenant-based assistance program or appropriate site
            revitalization of such agency.
                (6) Cessation of unnecessary spending.--Notwithstanding any
            other provision of law, if, in the determination of the
            Secretary, a development meets or is likely to meet the
            criteria set forth in subsection (a), the Secretary may direct
            the public housing agency to cease additional spending in
            connection with the development, except to the extent that
            additional spending is necessary to ensure decent, safe, and
            sanitary housing until the Secretary determines or approves an
            appropriate course of action with respect to such development
            under this section.
        (d) Conversion to Tenant-Based Assistance.--

            pursuant to section 8 to families residing in any development
            that is removed from the inventory of the public housing agency
            and the annual contributions contract pursuant to subsection
            (b).
                (2) Each conversion plan under subsection (c) shall--

                    issued by the Secretary governing such notifications,
                    that the development shall be removed from the
                    inventory of the public housing agency and the families
                    shall receive tenant-based or project-based assistance,
                    and to provide any necessary counseling for families;
                    and
                        (B) ensure that all tenants affected by a
                    determination under this section that a development
                    shall be removed from the inventory of a public housing
                    agency shall be offered tenant-based or project-based
                    assistance and shall be relocated, as necessary, to
                    other decent, safe, sanitary, and affordable housing
                    which is, to the maximum extent practicable, housing of
                    their choice.
        (e) In General.--
                (1) The Secretary may require a public housing agency to

             public housing/section 8 moving to work demonstration

        Sec. 206. (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this demonstration is to
    give public housing agencies and the Secretary of Housing and Urban
    Development the flexibility to design and test various approaches for
    providing and administering housing assistance that: reduce cost and
    achieve greater cost effectiveness in Federal expenditures; give
    incentives to families with children where the head of household is
    working, seeking work, or is preparing for work by participating in job
    training, educational programs, or programs that assist people to
    obtain employment and become economically self-sufficient; and increase
    housing choices for low-income families.
        (b) Program Authority.--The Secretary of Housing and Urban
    Development shall conduct a demonstration program under this section
    beginning in fiscal year 1996 under which up to 30 public housing
    agencies (including Indian housing authorities) administering the
    public or Indian housing program and the section 8 housing assistance
    payments program may be selected by the Secretary to participate. The
    Secretary shall provide training and technical assistance during the
    demonstration and conduct detailed evaluations of up to 15 such
    agencies in an effort to identify replicable program models promoting
    the purpose of the demonstration. Under the demonstration,

    except as provided in subsection (e), an agency may combine operating
    assistance provided under section 9 of the United States Housing Act of
    1937, modernization assistance provided under section 14 of such Act,
    and assistance provided under section 8 of such Act for the certificate
    and voucher programs, to provide housing assistance for low-income
    families, as defined in section 3(b)(2) of the United States Housing
    Act of 1937, and services to facilitate the transition to work on such
    terms and conditions as the agency may propose and the Secretary may

                        (C) continuing to assist substantially the same

                    have been served had the amounts not been combined;
                        (D) maintaining a comparable mix of families (by

    section 6(j) of the United States Housing Act of 1937, and other

    Grant Program Allocations.--The amount of assistance received under

            records as the Secretary may prescribe as reasonably necessary
            to disclose the amounts and the disposition of amounts under
            this demonstration, to ensure compliance with the requirements
            of this section, and to measure performance.
                (2) Reports.--Each agency shall submit to the Secretary a
            report, or series of reports, in a form and at a time specified

                   documentation of multifamily refinancings

        Sec. 212. Notwithstanding the 16th paragraph under the item
    relating to ``administrative provisions'' in title II of the
    Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and
    Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1995 (Public Law 103-327; 108
    Stat. 2316), the amendments to section 223(a)(7) of the National

                    fha multifamily demonstration authority

        Sec. 213. (a) On and after October 1, 1995, and before October 1,
    1997, the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall initiate a
    demonstration program with respect to multifamily projects whose owners
    agree to participate and whose mortgages are insured under the National
    Housing Act and that are assisted under section 8 of the United States
    Housing Act of 1937 and whose present section 8 rents are, in the
    aggregate, in excess of the fair market rent of the locality in which
    the project is located. These programs shall be designed to test the
    feasibility and desirability of the goal of ensuring, to the maximum
    extent practicable, that the debt service and operating expenses,
    including adequate reserves, attributable to such multifamily projects
    can be supported with or without mortgage insurance under the National
    Housing Act and with or without above-market rents and utilizing
    project-based assistance or, with the consent of the property owner,
    tenant-based assistance, while taking into account the need for
    assistance of low- and very low-income families in such projects. In
    carrying out this demonstration, the Secretary may use arrangements
    with third parties, under which the Secretary may provide for the
    assumption by the third parties (by delegation, contract, or otherwise)
    of some or all of the functions, obligations, and benefits of the
    Secretary.
                (1) Goals.--The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
            shall carry out the demonstration programs under this section
            in a manner that--
                        (A) will protect the financial interests of the
                    Federal Government;
                        (B) will result in significant discretionary cost
                    savings through debt restructuring and subsidy
                    reduction; and
                        (C) will, in the least costly fashion, address the
                    goals of--
                                (i) maintaining existing housing stock in a
                            decent, safe, and sanitary condition;
                                (ii) minimizing the involuntary
                            displacement of tenants;
                                (iii) restructuring the mortgages of such
                            projects in a manner that is consistent with
                            local housing market conditions;
                                (iv) supporting fair housing strategies;
                                (v) minimizing any adverse income tax
                            impact on property owners; and
                                (vi) minimizing any adverse impact on
                            residential neighborhoods.
            In determining the manner in which a mortgage is to be
            restructured or the subsidy reduced, the Secretary may balance
            competing goals relating to individual projects in a manner
            that will further the purposes of this section.
                (2) Demonstration approaches.--In carrying out the
            demonstration programs, subject to the appropriation in
            subsection (f), the Secretary may use one or more of the
            following approaches:
                        (A) Joint venture arrangements with third parties,
                    under which the Secretary may provide for the
                    assumption by the third parties (by delegation,
                    contract, or otherwise) of some or all of the
                    functions, obligations, and benefits of the Secretary.
                        (B) Subsidization of the debt service of the
                    project to a level that can be paid by an owner
                    receiving an unsubsidized market rent.
                        (C) Renewal of existing project-based assistance
                    contracts where the Secretary shall approve proposed
                    initial rent levels that do not exceed the greater of
                    120 percent of fair market rents or comparable market
                    rents for the relevant metropolitan market area or at
                    rent levels under a budget-based approach.
                        (D) Nonrenewal of expiring existing project-based
                    assistance contracts and providing tenant-based
                    assistance to previously assisted households.
        (b) For purposes of carrying out demonstration programs under
    subsection (a)--
                (1) the Secretary may manage and dispose of multifamily
            properties owned by the Secretary as of October 1, 1995 and
            multifamily mortgages held by the Secretary as of October 1,
            1995 for properties assisted under section 8 with rents above
            110 percent of fair market rents without regard to any other
            provision of law; and
                (2) the Secretary may delegate to one or more entities the
            authority to carry out some or all of the functions and
            responsibilities of the Secretary in connection with the
            foreclosure of mortgages held by the Secretary under the
            National Housing Act.
        (c) For purposes of carrying out demonstration programs under
    subsection (a), subject to such third party consents (if any) as are
    necessary including but not limited to (i) consent by the Government
    National Mortgage Association where it owns a mortgage insured by the
    Secretary; (ii) consent by an issuer under the mortgage-backed
    securities program of the Association, subject to the responsibilities
    of the issuer to its security holders and the Association under such
    program; and (iii) parties to any contractual agreement which the
    Secretary proposes to modify or discontinue, and subject to the
    appropriation in subsection (c), the Secretary or one or more third
    parties designated by the Secretary may take the following actions:
                (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, and subject
            to the agreement of the project owner, the Secretary or third
            party may remove, relinquish, extinguish, modify, or agree to
            the removal of any mortgage, regulatory agreement, project-
            based assistance contract, use agreement, or restriction that
            had been imposed or required by the Secretary, including
            restrictions on distributions of income which the Secretary or
            third party determines would interfere with the ability of the
            project to operate without above market rents. The Secretary or
            third party may require an owner of a property assisted under
            the section 8 new construction/substantial rehabilitation
            program to apply any accumulated residual receipts toward
            effecting the purposes of this section.
                (2) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the
            Secretary of Housing and Urban Development may enter into
            contracts to purchase reinsurance, or enter into participations
            or otherwise transfer economic interest in contracts of
            insurance or in the premiums paid, or due to be paid, on such
            insurance to third parties, on such terms and conditions as the
            Secretary may determine.
                (3) The Secretary may offer project-based assistance with
            rents at or below fair market rents for the locality in which
            the project is located and may negotiate such other terms as
            are acceptable to the Secretary and the project owner.
                (4) The Secretary may offer to pay all or a portion of the
            project's debt service, including payments monthly from the
            appropriate Insurance Fund, for the full remaining term of the
            insured mortgage.
                (5) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the
            Secretary may forgive and cancel any FHA-insured mortgage debt
            that a demonstration program property cannot carry at market
            rents while bearing full operating costs.
                (6) For demonstration program properties that cannot carry
            full operating costs (excluding debt service) at market rents,
            the Secretary may approve project-based rents sufficient to
            carry such full operating costs and may offer to pay the full
            debt service in the manner provided in paragraph (4).
        (d) Community and Tenant Input.--In carrying out this section, the
    Secretary shall develop procedures to provide appropriate and timely
    notice to officials of the unit of general local government affected,
    the community in which the project is situated, and the tenants of the
    project.
        (e) Limitation on Demonstration Authority.--The Secretary may carry
    out demonstration programs under this section with respect to mortgages
    not to exceed 15,000 units. The demonstration authorized under this
    section shall not be expanded until the reports required under
    subsection (g) are submitted to the Congress.

            subsection, ``old payment amounts'' means, for an old capital
            investment, the annual interest and principal that the
            Administrator would have paid to the United States Treasury

            assuming that--
                        (A) the principal were repaid--

            or any State or local government that receives Federal
            financial assistance, shall deem accredited any postgraduate
            physician training program that would be accredited but for the

                            applicable only to those individuals who have
                            voluntarily elected to perform abortions.
        ``(c) Definitions.--For purposes of this section:
                ``(1) The term `financial assistance', with respect to a
            government program, includes governmental payments provided as
            reimbursement for carrying out health-related activities.
                ``(2) The term `health care entity' includes an individual
            physician, a postgraduate physician training program, and a
            participant in a program of training in the health professions.
                ``(3) The term `postgraduate physician training program'
            includes a residency training program.''.
        Sec. 3014. (a) The Senate finds that:
                (1) Record low temperatures across the country this winter,
            coupled with record snowfalls in many areas, have generated
            substantial and sustained demand among eligible low-income
            Americans for home heating assistance, and put many who face
            heating-related crises at risk.
                (2) Home heating assistance for working and low-income
            families with children, the elderly on fixed incomes, the
            disabled, and others who need such help is a critical part of
            the social safety net in cold-weather areas.
                (3) The President has released approximately $900,000,000
            in regular Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
            funding for this year, compared to a funding level of
            $1,319,000,000 last year, and a large LIHEAP funding shortfall
            remains which has adversely affected eligible recipients in
            many cold-weather States.
                (4) LIHEAP is a highly targeted, cost-effective way to help
            approximately 6 million low-income Americans to pay their
            energy bills. More than two-thirds of LIHEAP-eligible
            households have annual incomes of less than $8,000; more than
            one-half have annual incomes below $6,000.
                (5) LIHEAP program funding has been substantially reduced
            in recent years, and cannot sustain any further spending cuts
            if the program is to remain a viable means of meeting the home
            heating and other energy-related needs of low-income people in
            cold-weather States.
                (6) Traditionally, LIHEAP has received advance
            appropriations for the next fiscal year. This allows States to
            properly plan for the upcoming winter and best serve the energy
            needs of low-income families.
                (7) Congress was not able to pass an appropriations bill
            for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and
            Education by the beginning of this fiscal year and it was only
            because LIHEAP received advance appropriations last fiscal year
            that the President was able to release the $578,000,000 he did
            in December--the bulk of the funds made available to the States
            this winter.
                (8) There is currently available to the President up to
            $300,000,000 in emergency LIHEAP funding, which could be made
            available immediately, on a targeted basis, to meet the urgent
            home heating needs of eligible persons who otherwise could be
            faced with heating-related emergencies, including shut-offs, in
            the coming weeks.
        (b) Therefore, it is the sense of the Senate that--
                (1) the President should release immediately a substantial
            portion of available emergency funding for the Low Income Home
            Energy Assistance Program for fiscal year 1996, to help meet
            continuing urgent needs for home heating assistance during this
            unusually cold winter; and
                (2) not less than the $1,000,000,000 in regular advance-
            appropriated LIHEAP funding for next winter provided for in
            this bill should be retained in a House-Senate conference on
            this measure.

            and conditions consistent with the protection of the values of
            the Admiralty Island National Monument.

    ratified and confirmed as to the duties and obligations of the United
    States and its agencies, and KGCMC and Kennecott Corporation, as a

            subsection. Such moneys in the special account in the Treasury
            may, to the extent provided in appropriations Acts, be used for

        Sec. 3018. Sense of the Senate Regarding the Budget Treatment of

        Sec. 3019. Sense of the Senate Regarding the Budget Treatment of

    rather than taking the expenditures off budget and adding to the
    Federal deficit.
        Sec. 3020. None of the funds made available by this Act or any
    previous Act shall be expended if such expenditure would cause total
    fiscal year 1996 non-defense discretionary expenditures for:

        (2) The Plan shall reflect, to the maximum extent possible, the
    Veterans Integrated Service Network, as well as the Resource Planning
    and Management System developed by the Department of Veterans Affairs
    to account for forecasts in expected workload and to ensure fairness to

    regulation to be presented to a Federal agency or official for
    adjudication or review, such claim shall be presented to the Department
    of Energy in accordance with procedures to be established by the
    Secretary. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to impose on
    the Department of Energy liability to pay any claim presented pursuant
    to this paragraph.
        (6) The Attorney General shall represent the United States in any
    action seeking to impose liability under this subsection.
        (b) Liability of the Corporation.--Notwithstanding any provision of
    any agreement to which the Corporation is a party, the Corporation
    shall not be considered in breach, default, or violation of any
    agreement because of the transfer of such agreement to the private
    corporation under section 408 or any other action the Corporation is
    required to take under this subchapter.

    employee, or agent of the Corporation shall be liable in any civil
    proceeding to any party in connection with any action taken in
    connection with the privatization if, with respect to the subject
    matter of the action, suit, or proceeding, such person was acting
    within the scope of his employment.
        (2) This subsection shall not apply to claims arising under the
    Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a. et seq.), the Securities

    SEC. 410. EMPLOYEE PROTECTIONS.

        (a) Contractor Employees.--(1) Privatization shall not diminish the
    accrued, vested pension benefits of employees of the Corporation's
    operating contractor at the two gaseous diffusion plants.
        (2) In the event that the private corporation terminates or changes
    the contractor at either or both of the gaseous diffusion plants, the
    plan sponsor or other appropriate fiduciary of the pension plan
    covering employees of the prior operating contractor shall arrange for
    the transfer of all plan assets and liabilities relating to accrued
    pension benefits of such plan's participants and beneficiaries from
    such plant to a pension plan sponsored by the new contractor or the
    private corporation or a joint labor-management plan, as the case may
    be.
        (3) In addition to any obligations arising under the National Labor
    Relations Act (29 U.S.C. 151 et seq.), any employer (including the
    private corporation if it operates a gaseous diffusion plant without a
    contractor or any contractor of the private corporation) at a gaseous
    diffusion plant shall--
                (A) abide by the terms of any unexpired collective
            bargaining agreement covering employees in bargaining units at
            the plant and in effect on the privatization date until the
            stated expiration or termination date of the agreement; or
                (B) in the event a collective bargaining agreement is not
            in effect upon the privatization date, have the same bargaining
            obligations under section 8(d) of the National Labor Relations
            Act (29 U.S.C. 158(d)) as it had immediately before the
            privatization date.
        (4) If the private corporation replaces its operating contractor at
    a gaseous diffusion plant, the new employer (including the new
    contractor or the private corporation if it operates a gaseous
    diffusion plant without a contractor) shall--
                (A) offer employment to non-management employees of the
            predecessor contractor to the extent that their jobs still
            exist or they are qualified for new jobs, and
                (B) abide by the terms of the predecessor contractor's
            collective bargaining agreement until the agreement expires or
            a new agreement is signed.
        (5) In the event of a plant closing or mass layoff (as such terms
    are defined in section 2101(a) (2) and (3) of title 29, United States
    Code) at either of the gaseous diffusion plants, the Secretary of
    Energy shall treat any adversely affected employee of an operating
    contractor at either plant who was an employee at such plant on July 1,
    1993, as a Department of Energy employee for purposes of sections 3161
    and 3162 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1993
    (42 U.S.C. 7274h-7274i).
        (6)(A) The Secretary and the private corporation shall cause the
    post-retirement health benefits plan provider (or its successor) to
    continue to provide benefits for eligible persons, as described under
    subparagraph (B), employed by an operating contractor at either of the
    gaseous diffusion plants in an economically efficient manner and at
    substantially the same level of coverage as eligible retirees are
    entitled to receive on the privatization date.
        (B) Persons eligible for coverage under subparagraph (A) shall be
    limited to:
                (i) persons who retired from active employment at one of
            the gaseous diffusion plants on or before the privatization
            date as vested participants in a pension plan maintained either
            by the Corporation's operating contractor or by a contractor
            employed prior to July 1, 1993, by the Department of Energy to
            operate a gaseous diffusion plant; and
                (ii) persons who are employed by the Corporation's
            operating contractor on or before the privatization date and
            are vested participants in a pension plan maintained either by
            the Corporation's operating contractor or by a contractor
            employed prior to July 1, 1993, by the Department of Energy to
            operate a gaseous diffusion plant.
        (C) The Secretary shall fund the entire cost of post-retirement
    health benefits for persons who retired from employment with an
    operating contractor prior to July 1, 1993.
        (D) The Secretary and the Corporation shall fund the cost of post-
    retirement health benefits for persons who retire from employment with
    an operating contractor on or after July 1, 1993, in proportion to the
    retired person's years and months of service at a gaseous diffusion
    plant under their respective management.
        (7)(A) Any suit under this subsection alleging a violation of an
    agreement between an employer and a labor organization shall be brought
    in accordance with section 301 of the Labor Management Relations Act
    (29 U.S.C. 185).
        (B) Any charge under this subsection alleging an unfair labor
    practice violative of section 8 of the National Labor Relations Act (29
    U.S.C. 158) shall be pursued in accordance with section 10 of the
    National Labor Relations Act (29 U.S.C. 160).
        (C) Any suit alleging a violation of any provision of this
    subsection, to the extent it does not allege a violation of the
    National Labor Relations Act, may be brought in any district court of
    the United States having jurisdiction over the parties, without regard
    to the amount in controversy or the citizenship of the parties.
        (b) Former Federal Employees.--(1)(A) An employee of the
    Corporation that was subject to either the Civil Service Retirement

    shall have the option to transfer the balance in the employee's Thrift
    Savings Plan account to a defined contribution plan under the
    Corporation's retirement system, consistent with applicable law and the
    terms of the Corporation's defined contribution plan.
        (2) The Corporation shall pay to the Civil Service Retirement and
    Disability Fund--
                (A) such employee deductions and agency contributions as
            are required by sections 8334, 8422, and 8423 of title 5,

    SEC. 411. OWNERSHIP LIMITATIONS.

        (a) Securities Limitations.--No director, officer, or employee of
    the Corporation may acquire any securities, or any rights to acquire
    any securities of the private corporation on terms more favorable than
    those offered to the general public--
                (1) in a public offering designed to transfer ownership of
            the Corporation to private investors,
                (2) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement, or
            understanding entered into before the privatization date, or

    of the transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which 100
    percent of the ownership of the Corporation is transferred to private
    investors, and for a period of three years thereafter, no person may
    acquire, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of securities

    SEC. 412. URANIUM TRANSFERS AND SALES.

        (a) Transfers and Sales by the Secretary.--The Secretary shall not
    provide enrichment services or transfer or sell any uranium (including
    natural uranium concentrates, natural uranium hexafluoride, or enriched
    uranium in any form) to any person except as consistent with this
    section.
        (b) Russian HEU.--(1) On or before December 31, 1996, the United
    States Executive Agent under the Russian HEU Agreement shall transfer
    to the Secretary without charge title to an amount of uranium
    hexafluoride equivalent to the natural uranium component of low-
    enriched uranium derived from at least 18 metric tons of highly
    enriched uranium purchased from the Russian Executive Agent under the
    Russian HEU Agreement. The quantity of such uranium hexafluoride
    delivered to the Secretary shall be based on a tails assay of 0.30
    U\235\. Uranium hexafluoride transferred to the Secretary pursuant to
    this paragraph shall be deemed under United States law for all purposes
    to be of Russian origin.
        (2) Within 7 years of the date of enactment of this Act, the
    Secretary shall sell, and receive payment for, the uranium hexafluoride
    transferred to the Secretary pursuant to paragraph (1). Such uranium
    hexafluoride shall be sold--
                (A) at any time for use in the United States for the
            purpose of overfeeding;
                (B) at any time for end use outside the United States;
                (C) in 1995 and 1996 to the Russian Executive Agent at the
            purchase price for use in matched sales pursuant to the
            Suspension Agreement; or,
                (D) in calendar year 2001 for consumption by end users in
            the United States not prior to January 1, 2002, in volumes not
            to exceed 3,000,000 pounds U<INF>3O<INF>8 equivalent per year.
        (3) With respect to all enriched uranium delivered to the United
    States Executive Agent under the Russian HEU Agreement on or after
    January 1, 1997, the United States Executive Agent shall, upon request
    of the Russian Executive Agent, enter into an agreement to deliver
    concurrently to the Russian Executive Agent an amount of uranium
    hexafluoride equivalent to the natural uranium component of such
    uranium. An agreement executed pursuant to a request of the Russian
    Executive Agent, as contemplated in this paragraph, may pertain to any
    deliveries due during any period remaining under the Russian HEU
    Agreement. The quantity of such uranium hexafluoride delivered to the
    Russian Executive Agent shall be based on a tails assay of 0.30 U\235\.
    Title to uranium hexafluoride delivered to the Russian Executive Agent
    pursuant to this paragraph shall transfer to the Russian Executive
    Agent upon delivery of such material to the Russian Executive Agent,
    with such delivery to take place at a North American facility
    designated by the Russian Executive Agent. Uranium hexafluoride
    delivered to the Russian Executive Agent pursuant to this paragraph
    shall be deemed under U.S. law for all purposes to be of Russian
    origin. Such uranium hexafluoride may be sold to any person or entity
    for delivery and use in the United States only as permitted in
    subsections (b)(5), (b)(6) and (b)(7) of this section.
        (4) In the event that the Russian Executive Agent does not exercise
    its right to enter into an agreement to take delivery of the natural
    uranium component of any low-enriched uranium, as contemplated in
    paragraph (3), within 90 days of the date such low-enriched uranium is
    delivered to the United States Executive Agent, or upon request of the
    Russian Executive Agent, then the United States Executive Agent shall
    engage an independent entity through a competitive selection process to
    auction an amount of uranium hexafluoride or U<INF>3O<INF>8 (in the
    event that the conversion component of such hexafluoride has previously
    been sold) equivalent to the natural uranium component of such low-
    enriched uranium. An agreement executed pursuant to a request of the
    Russian Executive Agent, as contemplated in this paragraph, may pertain
    to any deliveries due during any period remaining under the Russian HEU
    Agreement. Such independent entity shall sell such uranium hexafluoride
    in one or more lots to any person or entity to maximize the proceeds
    from such sales, for disposition consistent with the limitations set
    forth in this subsection. The independent entity shall pay to the
    Russian Executive Agent the proceeds of any such auction less all
    reasonable transaction and other administrative costs. The quantity of
    such uranium hexafluoride auctioned shall be based on a tails assay of
    0.30 U\235\. Title to uranium hexafluoride auctioned pursuant to this
    paragraph shall transfer to the buyer of such material upon delivery of
    such material to the buyer. Uranium hexafluoride auctioned pursuant to
    this paragraph shall be deemed under United States law for all purposes
    to be of Russian origin.
        (5) Except as provided in paragraphs (6) and (7), uranium
    hexafluoride delivered to the Russian Executive Agent under paragraph
    (3) or auctioned pursuant to paragraph (4), may not be delivered for
    consumption by end users in the United States either directly or
    indirectly prior to January 1, 1998, and thereafter only in accordance
    with the following schedule:

                     Annual Maximum Deliveries to End Users

            2009 and each year thereafter................               20.
        (6) Uranium hexafluoride delivered to the Russian Executive Agent
    under paragraph (3) or auctioned pursuant to paragraph (4) may be sold
    at any time as Russian-origin natural uranium in a matched sale
    pursuant to the Suspension Agreement, and in such case shall not be
    counted against the annual maximum deliveries set forth in paragraph
    (5).
        (7) Uranium hexafluoride delivered to the Russian Executive Agent
    under paragraph (3) or auctioned pursuant to paragraph (4) may be sold
    at any time for use in the United States for the purpose of overfeeding
    in the operations of enrichment facilities.
        (8) Nothing in this subsection (b) shall restrict the sale of the
    conversion component of such uranium hexafluoride.
        (9) The Secretary of Commerce shall have responsibility for the
    administration and enforcement of the limitations set forth in this
    subsection. The Secretary of Commerce may require any person to provide
    any certifications, information, or take any action that may be
    necessary to enforce these limitations. The United States Customs
    Service shall maintain and provide any information required by the
    Secretary of Commerce and shall take any action requested by the
    Secretary of Commerce which is necessary for the administration and
    enforcement of the uranium delivery limitations set forth in this
    section.
        (10) The President shall monitor the actions of the United States
    Executive Agent under the Russian HEU Agreement and shall report to the
    Congress not later than December 31 of each year on the effect the low-
    enriched uranium delivered under the Russian HEU Agreement is having on
    the domestic uranium mining, conversion, and enrichment industries, and
    the operation of the gaseous diffusion plants. Such report shall
    include a description of actions taken or proposed to be taken by the
    President to prevent or mitigate any material adverse impact on such
    industries or any loss of employment at the gaseous diffusion plants as
    a result of the Russian HEU Agreement.
        (c) Transfers to the Corporation.--(1) The Secretary shall transfer
    to the Corporation without charge up to 50 metric tons of enriched
    uranium and up to 7,000 metric tons of natural uranium from the
    Department of Energy's stockpile, subject to the restrictions in
    subsection (c)(2).
        (2) The Corporation shall not deliver for commercial end use in the
    United States--
                (A) any of the uranium transferred under this subsection
            before January 1, 1998;
                (B) more than 10 percent of the uranium (by uranium
            hexafluoride equivalent content) transferred under this
            subsection or more than 4,000,000 pounds, whichever is less, in
            any calendar year after 1997; or
                (C) more than 800,000 separative work units contained in
            low-enriched uranium transferred under this subsection in any
            calendar year.
        (d) Inventory Sales.--(1) In addition to the transfers authorized
    under subsections (c) and (e), the Secretary may, from time to time,
    sell natural and low-enriched uranium (including low-enriched uranium
    derived from highly enriched uranium) from the Department of Energy's
    stockpile.
        (2) Except as provided in subsections (b), (c), and (e), no sale or
    transfer of natural or low-enriched uranium shall be made unless--
                (A) the President determines that the material is not
            necessary for national security needs,
                (B) the Secretary determines that the sale of the material
            will not have an adverse material impact on the domestic
            uranium mining, conversion, or enrichment industry, taking into
            account the sales of uranium under the Russian HEU Agreement
            and the Suspension Agreement, and
                (C) the price paid to the Secretary will not be less than
            the fair market value of the material.

            the use of the receiving agency without any resale or transfer
            to another entity and the material does not meet commercial
            specifications;

    shall remain available for obligation beyond the current fiscal year
    unless expressly so provided herein.
        Sec. 4002. No part of any appropriation contained in this title
    shall be made available for obligation or expenditure, nor any
    authority granted herein be effective, until the enactment into law of
    a subsequent Act entitled ``An Act Incorporating an Agreement Between
    the President and Congress Relative to Federal Expenditures in Fiscal
    Year 1996 and Future Fiscal Years''.
        Sec. 4003. (a) This section may be cited as the ``Federal
    Prohibition of Female Genital Mutilation Act of 1996''.
        (b) Congress finds that--
                (1) the practice of female genital mutilation is carried
            out by members of certain cultural and religious groups within
            the United States;
                (2) the practice of female genital mutilation often results
            in the occurrence of physical and psychological health effects
            that harm the women involved;
                (3) such mutilation infringes upon the guarantees of rights
            secured by Federal and State law, both statutory and
            constitutional;
                (4) the unique circumstances surrounding the practice of
            female genital mutilation place it beyond the ability of any
            single State or local jurisdiction to control;
                (5) the practice of female genital mutilation can be
            prohibited without abridging the exercise of any rights
            guaranteed under the First Amendment to the Constitution or
            under any other law; and
                (6) Congress has the affirmative power under section 8 of
            article I of the Constitution, as well as under section 5 of
            the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, to enact such
            legislation.
        (c) It is the purpose of this section to protect and promote the
    public safety and health and activities affecting interstate commerce
    by establishing Federal criminal penalties for the performance of
    female genital mutilation.
        (d)(1) Chapter 7 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by
    adding at the end the following new section:
    ``Sec. 116. Female genital mutilation
        ``(a) Except as provided in subsection (b), whoever knowingly
    circumcises, excises, or infibulates the whole or any part of the labia
    majora or labia minora or clitoris of another person who has not
    attained the age of 18 years shall be fined under this title or
    imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.

    the operation is--
                ``(1) necessary to the health of the person on whom it is
            performed, and is performed by a person licensed in the place
            of its performance as a medical practitioner; or
                ``(2) performed on a person in labor or who has just given
            birth and is performed for medical purposes connected with that
            labor or birth by a person licensed in the place it is
            performed as a medical practitioner, midwife, or person in
            training to become such a practitioner or midwife.
        ``(c) In applying subsection (b)(1), no account shall be taken of
    the effect on the person on whom the operation is to be performed of
    any belief on the part of that or any other person that the operation
    is required as a matter of custom or ritual.
        ``(d) Whoever knowingly denies to any person medical care or
    services or otherwise discriminates against any person in the provision
    of medical care or services, because--
                ``(1) that person has undergone female circumcision,
            excision, or infibulation; or
                ``(2) that person has requested that female circumcision,
            excision, or infibulation be performed on any person;
    shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year,
    or both.''.
        (2) The table of sections at the beginning of chapter 7 of title
    18, United States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following

                               sense of congress

        It is the sense of the Congress that accounting for taxpayers'
    funds must be a top priority for all Federal agencies and Government
    corporations. The Congress is deeply concerned about the findings of
    the recent audit of the Corporation for National and Community Service
    required under the Government Corporation Control Act of 1945. The
    Congress urges the President to expeditiously nominate a qualified
    Chief Financial Officer for the Corporation. Further, to the maximum
    extent practicable and as quickly as possible, the Corporation should
    implement the recommendations of the independent auditors contracted
    for by the Corporation's Inspector General, as well as the Chief
    Financial Officer, to improve the financial management of taxpayers'
    funds. Should the Chief Financial Officer determine that additional
    resources are needed to implement these recommendations, the
    Corporation should submit a reprogramming proposal for up to $3,000,000
    to carry out reforms of the financial management system.

                               funding adjustment

        The total amount appropriated under the heading ``Department of
    Housing and Urban Development, Housing Programs, Annual contribution
    for assisted housing'', in title I of this Act is reduced by
    $17,000,000, and the amount otherwise made available under said heading
    for section 8 assistance and rehabilitation grants for property
    disposition is reduced to $192,000,000.

    unit of general local government.''.
        (b) Section 3716 of title 31, United States Code, is amended--
                (1) by amending subsection (b) to read as follows:
        ``(b) Before collecting a claim by administrative offset, the head
    of an executive, legislative, or judicial agency must either--
                ``(1) adopt regulations on collecting by administrative
            offset promulgated by the Department of Justice, the General
            Accounting Office and/or the Department of the Treasury without
            change; or
                ``(2) prescribe independent regulations on collecting by
            administrative offset consistent with the regulations
            promulgated under paragraph (1).'';
                (2) by amending subsection (c)(2) to read as follows:
                ``(2) when a statute explicitly prohibits using

            type of claim involved.'';
                (3) by redesignating subsection (c) as subsection (d); and
                (4) by inserting after subsection (b) the following new
            subsection:
        ``(c)(1)(A) Except as provided in subparagraph (B) or (C), a
    disbursing official of the Department of the Treasury, the Department
    of Defense, the United States Postal Service, or any disbursing
    official of the United States designated by the Secretary of the
    Treasury, is authorized to offset the amount of a payment which a
    payment certifying agency has certified to the disbursing official for
    disbursement by an amount equal to the amount of a claim which a
    creditor agency has certified to the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant
    to this subsection.
        ``(B) An agency that designates disbursing officials pursuant to
    section 3321(c) of this title is not required to certify claims arising
    out of its operations to the Secretary of the Treasury before such
    agency's disbursing officials offset such claims.
        ``(C) Payments certified by the Department of Education under a
    program administered by the Secretary of Education under title IV of
    the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, shall not be subject to
    offset under this subsection.
        ``(2) Neither the disbursing official nor the payment certifying
    agency shall be liable--
                ``(A) for the amount of the offset on the basis that the
            underlying obligation, represented by the payment before the
            offset was taken, was not satisfied; or
                ``(B) for failure to provide timely notice under paragraph
            (8).
        ``(3)(A) Notwithstanding any other provision of law (including
    sections 207 and 1631(d)(1) of the Act of August 14, 1935 (42 U.S.C.
    407 and 1383(d)(1)), section 413(b) of Public Law 91-173 (30 U.S.C.
    923(b)), and section 14 of the Act of August 29, 1935 (45 U.S.C.
    231m)), all payments due under the Social Security Act, Part B of the
    Black Lung Benefits Act, or under any law administered by the Railroad
    Retirement Board shall be subject to offset under this section.
        ``(B) An amount of $10,000 which a debtor may receive under Federal
    benefit programs cited under subparagraph (A) within a 12-month period
    shall be exempt from offset under this subsection. In applying the
    $10,000 exemption, the disbursing official shall--
                ``(i) apply a prorated amount of the exemption to each
            periodic benefit payment to be made to the debtor during the
            applicable 12-month period; and
                ``(ii) consider all benefit payments made during the
            applicable 12-month period which are exempt from offset under
            this subsection as part of the $10,000 exemption.
    For purposes of the preceding sentence, the amount of a periodic
    benefit payment shall be the amount after any reduction or deduction
    required under the laws authorizing the program under which such
    payment is authorized to be made (including any reduction or deduction
    to recover any overpayment under such program).
        ``(C) The Secretary of the Treasury shall exempt means-tested
    programs when notified by the head of the respective agency. The
    Secretary may exempt other payments from offset under this subsection
    upon the written request of the head of a payment certifying agency. A
    written request for exemption of other payments must provide
    justification for the exemption under thestandards prescribed by the
    Secretary. Such standards shall give due consideration to whether
    offset would tend to interfere substantially with or defeat the
    purposes of the payment certifying agency's program.
        ``(D) The provisions of sections 205(b)(1) and 1631(c)(1) of the
    Social Security Act shall not apply to any offset executed pursuant to
    this section against benefits authorized by either title II or title
    XVI of the Social Security Act.
        ``(4) The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to charge a fee
    sufficient to cover the full cost of implementing this subsection. The
    fee may be collected either by the retention of a portion of amounts
    collected pursuant to this subsection, or by billing the agency
    referring or transferring the claim. Fees charged to the agencies shall
    be based only on actual offsets completed. Fees charged under this
    subsection concerning delinquent claims may be considered as costs
    pursuant to section 3717(e) of this title. Fees charged under this
    subsection shall be deposited into the `Account' determined by the
    Secretary of the Treasury in accordance with section 3711(g) of this
    title, and shall be collected and accounted for in accordance with the
    provisions of that section.
        ``(5) The Secretary of the Treasury may disclose to a creditor
    agency the current address of any payee and any data related to
    certifying and authorizing such payment in accordance with section 552a
    of title 5, United States Code, even when the payment has been exempt
    from offset. Where payments are made electronically, the Secretary is
    authorized to obtain the current address of the debtor/payee from the
    institution receiving the payment. Upon request by the Secretary, the
    institution receiving the payment shall report the current address of
    the debtor/payee to the Secretary.
        ``(6) The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to prescribe such
    rules, regulations, and procedures as the Secretary of the Treasury
    deems necessary to carry out the purposes of this subsection. The
    Secretary shall consult with the heads of affected agencies in the
    development of such rules, regulations, and procedures.
        ``(7)(A) Any Federal agency that is owed by a named person a past-
    due legally enforceable non-tax debt that is over 180 days delinquent
    (other than any past-due support), including non-tax debt administered
    by a third party acting as an agent for the Federal Government, shall
    notify the Secretary of the Treasury of all such non-tax debts for
    purposes of offset under this subsection.
        ``(B) An agency may delay notification under subparagraph (A) with
    respect to a debt that is secured by bond or other instruments in lieu
    of bond, or for which there is another specific repayment source, in
    order to allow sufficient time to either collect the debt through
    normal collection processes (including collection by internal
    administrative offset) or render a final decision on any protest filed
    against the claim.
        ``(8) The disbursing official conducting the offset shall notify
    the payee in writing of--
                ``(A) the occurrence of an offset to satisfy a past-due
            legally enforceable debt, including a description of the type
            and amount of the payment otherwise payable to the debtor
            against which the offset was executed;
                ``(B) the identity of the creditor agency requesting the
            offset; and
                ``(C) a contact point within the creditor agency that will
            handle concerns regarding the offset.''.
    Where the payment to be offset is a periodic benefit payment, the
    disbursing official shall take reasonable steps, as determined by the
    Secretary of the Treasury, to provide the notice to the payee not later
    than the date on which the payee is otherwise scheduled to receive the
    payment, or as soon as practical thereafter, but no later than the date
    of the offset. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the failure of
    the debtor to receive such notice shall not impair the legality of such
    offset.
        ``(9) A levy pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 shall
    take precedence over requests for offset received from other
    agencies.''.
        (c) Section 3701(a) of title 31, United States Code, is amended by
    adding at the end the following new paragraph:
                ``(8) `non-tax claim' means any claim from any agency of
            the Federal Government other than a claim by the Internal
            Revenue Service under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.''.

    considered to be a legislative agency (as defined in section 3701(a)(4)
    of such title), and the Clerk of the House of Representatives shall be
    deemed to be the head of such legislative agency.
        ``(f) Regulations prescribed by the Clerk of the House of

    foreclosure auctions are customarily held in the county or one of the
    counties in which the property to be sold is located or at a courthouse
    therein, or upon the property to be sold. Sale of security property

    property are sold.
        ``(b) Bidding Requirements.--Written one-price sealed bids shall be
    accepted by the foreclosure trustee, if submitted by the agency head or
    other persons for entry by announcement by the foreclosure trustee at
    the sale. The sealed bids shall be submitted in accordance with the
    terms set forth in the notice of foreclosure sale. The agency head or
    any other person may bid at the foreclosure sale, even if the agency
    head or other person previously submitted a written one-price bid. The
    agency head may bid a credit against the debt due without the tender or
    payment of cash. The foreclosure trustee may serve as auctioneer, or
    may employ an auctioneer who may be paid from the sale proceeds. If an
    auctioneer is employed, the foreclosure trustee is not required to

        ``(c) Postponement of Sale.--The foreclosure trustee shall have
    discretion, prior to or at the time of sale, to postpone the
    foreclosure sale. The foreclosure trustee may postpone a sale to a
    later hour the same day by announcing or posting the new time and place
    of the foreclosure sale at the time and place originally scheduled for
    the foreclosure sale. The foreclosure trustee may instead postpone the
    foreclosure sale for not fewer than 9 nor more than 31 days, by serving
    notice that the foreclosure sale has been postponed to a specified
    date, and the notice may include any revisions the foreclosure trustee
    deems appropriate. The notice shall be served by publication, mailing,
    and posting in accordance with section 3406 (b) and (c), except that
    publication may be made on any of three separate days prior to the new
    date of the foreclosure sale, and mailing may be made at any time at
    least 7 days prior to the new date of the foreclosure sale.
        ``(d) Liability of Successful Bidder Who Fails To Comply.--The
    foreclosure trustee may require a bidder to make a cash deposit before
    the bid is accepted. The amount or percentage of the cash deposit shall

    A successful bidder at the foreclosure sale who fails to comply with
    the terms of the sale shall forfeit the cash deposit or, at the

    subsequent sale of the property for all net losses incurred by the
    agency as a result of such failure.
        ``(e) Effect of Sale.--Any foreclosure sale held in accordance with
    this subchapter shall be conclusively presumed to have been conducted

    the terms of the sale as provided in the notice of foreclosure sale,
    the foreclosure trustee shall execute and deliver to the purchaser a
    deed conveying the security property to the purchaser that grants and
    conveys title to the security property without warranty or covenants to
    the purchaser. The execution of the foreclosure trustee's deed shall
    have the effect of conveying all of the right, title, and interest in
    the security property covered by the mortgage. Notwithstanding any
    other law to the contrary, the foreclosure trustee's deed shall be a
    conveyance of the security property and not a quitclaim. No judicial
    proceeding shall be required ancillary or supplementary to the
    procedures provided in this subchapter to establish the validity of the
    conveyance.
        ``(b) Death of Purchaser Prior to Consummation of Sale.--If a
    purchaser dies before execution and delivery of the deed conveying the
    security property to the purchaser, the foreclosure trustee shall
    execute and deliver the deed to the representative of the purchaser's
    estate upon payment of the purchase price in accordance with the terms
    of sale. Such delivery to the representative of the purchaser's estate
    shall have the same effect as if accomplished during the lifetime of
    the purchaser.
        ``(c) Purchaser Considered Bona Fide Purchaser Without Notice.--The
    purchaser of property under this subchapter shall be presumed to be a
    bona fide purchaser without notice of defects, if any, in the title
    conveyed to the purchaser.

    at a foreclosure sale conducted pursuant to this subchapter shall be
    entitled to possession upon passage of title to the security property,
    subject to any interest or interests senior to that of the mortgage.
    The right to possession of any person without an interest senior to the
    mortgage who is in possession of the property shall terminate
    immediately upon the passage of title to the security property, and the
    person shall vacate the security property immediately. The purchaser
    shall be entitled to take any steps available under Federal law or
    State law to obtain possession.
        ``(e) Right of Redemption; Right of Possession.--This subchapter
    shall preempt all Federal and State rights of redemption, statutory, or
    common law. Upon conclusion of the public auction of the security
    property, no person shall have a right of redemption.
        ``(f) Prohibition of Imposition of Tax on Conveyance by the United
    States or Agency Thereof.--No tax, or fee in the nature of a tax, for
    the transfer of title to the security property by the foreclosure
    trustee's deed shall be imposed upon or collected from the foreclosure
    trustee or the purchaser by any State or political subdivision thereof.

    in the deed to the purchaser, or in an addendum to the foreclosure
    trustee's deed, or shall prepare an affidavit stating--

            the provisions of this subchapter; and

        ``(b) Effect of Recitals.--The recitals set forth in subsection (a)
    shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of such recitals. Compliance
    with the requirements of subsection (a) shall create a conclusive
    presumption of the validity of the sale in favor of bona fide
    purchasers and encumbrancers for value without notice.
        ``(c) Deed To Be Accepted for Filing.--The register of deeds or
    other appropriate official of the county or counties where real estate
    deeds are regularly filed shall accept for filing and shall file the
