    This title may be cited as the ``Prison Litigation Reform Act of 
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
                    ``(ii) no other relief will remedy the violation of 
                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;
                    ``(ii) 1 year after the date the court has entered 
                an order denying termination of prospective relief 
                under this paragraph; or
                    ``(iii) in the case of an order issued on or before 
                the date of enactment of the Prison Litigation Reform 
                Act, 2 years after such date of enactment.
            ``(B) Nothing in this section shall prevent the parties 
        from agreeing to terminate or modify relief before the relief 
        is terminated under subparagraph (A).
            ``(2) Immediate termination of prospective relief.--In any 
        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.
            ``(4) Termination or modification of relief.--Nothing in 
        this section shall prevent any party or intervener from seeking 
        modification or termination before the relief is terminable 
        under paragraph (1) or (2), to the extent that modification or 
        termination would otherwise be legally permissible.
    ``(c) Settlements.--
            ``(1) Consent decrees.--In any civil action with respect to 
        prison conditions, the court shall not enter or approve a 
        consent decree unless it complies with the limitations on 
        relief set forth in subsection (a).
            ``(2) Private settlement agreements.--(A) Nothing in this 
        section shall preclude parties from entering into a private 
        settlement agreement that does not comply with the limitations 
        on relief set forth in subsection (a), if the terms of that 
        agreement are not subject to court enforcement other than the 
        reinstatement of the civil proceeding that the agreement 
        settled.
            ``(B) Nothing in this section shall preclude any party 
        claiming that a private settlement agreement has been breached 
        from seeking in State court any remedy available under State 
        law.
    ``(d) State Law Remedies.--The limitations on remedies in this 
section shall not apply to relief entered by a State court based solely 
upon claims arising under State law.
    ``(e) Procedure for Motions Affecting Prospective Relief.--
            ``(1) Generally.--The court shall promptly rule on any 
        motion to modify or terminate prospective relief in a civil 
        action with respect to prison conditions.
            ``(2) Automatic stay.--Any prospective relief subject to a 
        pending motion shall be automatically stayed during the 
        period--
                    ``(A)(i) beginning on the 30th day after such 
                motion is filed, in the case of a motion made under 
                paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (b); or
                    ``(ii) beginning on the 180th day after such motion 
                is filed, in the case of a motion made under any other 
                law; and
                    ``(B) ending on the date the court enters a final 
                order ruling on the motion.
    ``(f) Special Masters.--
            ``(1) In general.--(A) In any civil action in a Federal 
        court with respect to prison conditions, the court may appoint 
        a special master who shall be disinterested and objective and 
        who will give due regard to the public safety, to conduct 
        hearings on the record and prepare proposed findings of fact.
            ``(B) The court shall appoint a special master under this 
        subsection during the remedial phase of the action only upon a 
        finding that the remedial phase will be sufficiently complex to 
        warrant the appointment.
            ``(2) Appointment.--(A) If the court determines that the 
        appointment of a special master is necessary, the court shall 
        request that the defendant institution and the plaintiff each 
        submit a list of not more than 5 persons to serve as a special 
        master.
            ``(B) Each party shall have the opportunity to remove up to 
        3 persons from the opposing party's list.

        to an interlocutory appeal of the judge's selection of the 
        special master under this subsection, on the ground of 
        partiality.
            ``(4) Compensation.--The compensation to be allowed to a 
        special master under this section shall be based on an hourly 
        rate not greater than the hourly rate established under section

        reasonably incurred by the special master. Such compensation 
        and costs shall be paid with funds appropriated to the 
        Judiciary.
            ``(5) Regular review of appointment.--In any civil action 
        with respect to prison conditions in which a special master is 
        appointed under this subsection, the court shall review the 
        appointment of the special master every 6 months to determine 
        whether the services of the special master continue to be 
        required under paragraph (1). In no event shall the appointment 
        of a special master extend beyond the termination of the 
        relief.
            ``(6) Limitations on powers and duties.--A special master 
        appointed under this subsection--
                    ``(A) may be authorized by a court to conduct

an action under section 3 or 5 of this Act.

conditions under section 1979 of the Revised Statutes of the United 
States (42 U.S.C. 1983), or any other Federal law, by a prisoner 
confined in any jail, prison, or other correctional facility if the 
court is satisfied that the action is frivolous, malicious, fails to 
state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or seeks monetary 
relief from a defendant who is immune from such relief.
    ``(2) In the event that a claim is, on its face, frivolous, 
malicious, fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or 
seeks monetary relief from a defendant who is immune from such relief, 
the court may dismiss the underlying claim without first requiring the 
exhaustion of administrative remedies.

        enforcing the relief ordered for the violation.
    ``(2) Whenever a monetary judgment is awarded in an action 
described in paragraph (1), a portion of the judgment (not to exceed 25 
percent) shall be applied to satisfy the amount of attorney's fees 
awarded against the defendant. If the award of attorney's fees is not

greater than the amount authorized under this subsection, if the fee is 
paid by the individual rather than by the defendant pursuant to section 
2 of the Revised Statutes of the United States (42 U.S.C. 1988).

the prisoner's participation is required or permitted shall be 
conducted by telephone, video conference, or other telecommunications 
technology without removing the prisoner from the facility in which the 
prisoner is confined.
    ``(2) Subject to the agreement of the official of the Federal, 
State, or local unit of government with custody over the prisoner, 
hearings may be conducted at the facility in which the prisoner is 
confined. To the extent practicable, the court shall allow counsel to 
participate by telephone, video conference, or other communications 
technology in any hearing held at the facility.
    ``(g) Waiver of Reply.--(1) Any defendant may waive the right to 
reply to any action brought by a prisoner confined in any jail, prison, 
or other correctional facility under section 1979 of the Revised 
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 
shall not constitute an admission of the allegations contained in the 
complaint. No relief shall be granted to the plaintiff unless a reply 
has been filed.
    ``(2) The court may require any defendant to reply to a complaint 
brought under this section if it finds that the plaintiff has a 
reasonable opportunity to prevail on the merits.
    ``(h) Definition.--As used in this section, the term `prisoner' 
means any person incarcerated or detained in any facility who is

appropriations Acts, to assist in the resettlement of Rongelap Atoll: 
Provided, That the total of all contributions from any Federal source

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 
be properly audited and accounted for. In order to provide such 
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. 
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to limit the provision of

Rescissions Act, minus the funds necessary to make payments to States 
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 
subsequently redistributed between the Funds or paid into the United 
States Treasury as miscellaneous receipts as may be required when the 
calculation of excess revenues is made.
    (b)(1) From the funds deposited into the Agriculture Fund and into 
the Interior Fund pursuant to subsection (a)--
            (A) seventy-five percent shall be available, without fiscal 
        year limitation or further appropriation, for preparation of 
        timber sales, other than salvage sales as defined in section 
        2001(a)(3) of the fiscal year 1995 Supplemental Appropriations 
        for Disaster Assistance and Rescissions Act, which--
                    (i) are situated on lands within the National 
                Forest System and lands administered by the Bureau of 
                Land Management, respectively; and
                    (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.
    (2) Expenditures under this subsection for preparation of timber 
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 
and Bureau of Land Management State office.
    (g) The authority of this section shall terminate upon the 
termination of both Funds in accordance with the provisions of

        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.
            (c) No grant shall be used for seasonal support to a group,

    Sec. 331. (a) Purposes of National Endowment for the Arts.--Section 
2 of the National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act of 
1965, as amended (20 U.S.C. 951), sets out findings and purposes for 
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

section 5(a) that was not allocated, as determined by the Secretary,

section shall principally be used for the physical improvement or 
replacement of public housing and for associated management 
improvements, except as otherwise approved by the Secretary. Public 
housing units assisted under this paragraph shall be eligible for 
operating subsidies, unless the Secretary determines that such units or 
projects have not received sufficient assistance under this Act or do 
not meet other requirements of this Act.
    ``(2) A public housing agency may provide assistance to 
developments that include units for other than very low-income families 
(`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

        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 20 
        years, by master contract or by individual lease, for occupancy 
        by low-income families referred from time to time by the public 
        housing agency. 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

                Secretary.

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.''.

        housing agency cannot assure the long-term viability as public 
        housing through reasonable revitalization, density reduction, 
        or achievement of a broader range of household income; and
            (5) for which the estimated cost of continued operation and 
        modernization of the developments as public housing exceeds the 
        cost of providing tenant-based assistance under section 8 of 
        the United States Housing Act of 1937 for all families in 
        occupancy, based on appropriate indicators of cost (such as the 
        percentage of total development cost required for

    (b) Implementation and Enforcement.--
            (1) Standards for implementation.--The Secretary shall

        developments under subsection (a).
            (3) Failure of phas to comply with subsection (a).--Where 
        the Secretary determines that--
                    (A) a public housing agency has failed under 
                subsection (a) to identify public housing developments 
                for removal from the inventory of the agency in a 
                timely manner;
                    (B) a public housing agency has failed to identify 
                one or more public housing developments which the 
                Secretary determines should have been identified under 
                subsection (a); or
                    (C) one or more of the developments identified by 
                the public housing agency pursuant to subsection (a) 
                should not, in the determination of the Secretary, have 
                been identified under that subsection;
        the Secretary may designate the developments to be removed from 
        the inventory of the public housing agency pursuant to this 
        section.

        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 
        Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy under title I of 
        the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992, including a 
        description of any disposition and demolition plan for the 
        public housing units.
            (2) The Secretary may extend the deadline in paragraph (1)

        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 
        and disposition of public housing under this section.
            (5) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a 
        development is removed from the inventory of a public housing 
        agency and the annual contributions contract pursuant to 
        paragraph (1), the Secretary may authorize or direct the 
        transfer of--
                    (A) in the case of an agency receiving assistance 
                under the comprehensive improvement assistance program, 
                any amounts obligated by the Secretary for the 
                modernization of such development pursuant to section 
                14 of the United States Housing Act of 1937;
                    (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,

        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.--
            (1) The Secretary shall make authority available to a 
        public housing agency to provide tenant-based assistance

        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--
                    (A) require the agency to notify families residing 
                in the development, consistent with any guidelines 
                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.--

         public housing/section 8 moving to work demonstration

    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.
    (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.
    (c) Application.--An application to participate in the 
demonstration--
            (1) shall request authority to combine assistance under

            (2) shall be submitted only after the public housing agency 
        provides for citizen participation through a public hearing 
        and, if appropriate, other means;
            (3) shall include a plan developed by the agency that takes 
        into account comments from the public hearing and any other 
        public comments on the proposed program, and comments from 
        current and prospective residents who would be affected, and 
        that includes criteria for--
                    (A) families to be assisted, which shall require 
                that at least 75 percent of the families assisted by 
                participating demonstration public housing authorities 
                shall be very low-income families, as defined in 
                section 3(b)(2) of the United States Housing Act of 
                1937, and at least 50 percent of the families selected 
                shall have incomes that do not exceed 30 percent of the 
                median family income for the area, as determined by the 
                Secretary with adjustments for smaller and larger 
                families, except that the Secretary 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;
                    (B) establishing a reasonable rent policy, which 
                shall be designed to encourage employment and self-
                sufficiency by participating families, consistent with 
                the purpose of this demonstration, such as by excluding 
                some or all of a family's earned income for purposes of 
                determining rent;
                    (C) continuing to assist substantially the same 
                total number of eligible low-income families as would 
                have been served had the amounts not been combined;
                    (D) maintaining a comparable mix of families (by

        assistance to assist with design of the demonstration and to 
        participate in a detailed evaluation.
    (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, and other 
appropriate factors as determined by the Secretary.
    (e) Applicability of 1937 Act Provisions.--

        use of the housing under this demonstration.

        under the demonstration, other than housing assisted solely due 
        to occupancy by families receiving tenant-based assistance.

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 part shall not be 
diminished by its participation.
    (g) Records, Reports, and Audits.--
            (1) Keeping of records.--Each agency shall keep such 
        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.

                    (B) provide such data as the Secretary may request 
                to assist the Secretary in assessing the demonstration; 
                and
                    (C) describe and analyze the effect of assisted 
                activities in addressing the objectives of this part.
            (3) Access to documents by the secretary.--The Secretary 
        shall have access for the purpose of audit and examination to 
        any books, documents, papers, and records that are pertinent to

including adequate reserves, attributable to such multifamily projects 
can be supported with or without mortgage insurance under the National

                goals of--
                            (i) maintaining existing housing stock in a
