<DELETED>SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.</DELETED>

<DELETED>    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (1) at the outset of the twentieth century, the 
        States adopted 2 separate juvenile justice systems for violent 
        and nonviolent offenders;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (2) violent crimes committed by juveniles, such as 
        homicide, rape, and robbery, were an unknown phenomenon at that 
        time, but the rate at which juveniles commit such crimes has 
        escalated astronomically since that time;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (3) in 1994--</DELETED>
                <DELETED>    (A) the number of persons arrested overall 
                for murder in the United States decreased by 5.8 
                percent, but the number of persons who are less than 15 
                years of age arrested for murder increased by 4 
                percent; and</DELETED>
                <DELETED>    (B) the number of persons arrested for all 
                violent crimes increased by 1.3 percent, but the number 
                of persons who are less than 15 years of age arrested 
                for violent crimes increased by 9.2 percent, and the 
                number of persons less than 18 years of age arrested 
                for such crimes increased by 6.5 percent;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (4) from 1985 to 1996, the number of persons 
        arrested for all violent crimes increased by 52.3 percent, but 
        the number of persons under age 18 arrested for violent crimes 
        rose by 75 percent;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (5) the number of juvenile offenders is expected 
        to undergo a massive increase during the first 2 decades of the 
        twenty-first century, culminating in an unprecedented number of 
        violent offenders who are less than 18 years of age;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (6) the rehabilitative model of sentencing for 
        juveniles, which Congress rejected for adult offenders when 
        Congress enacted the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, is 
        inadequate and inappropriate for dealing with violent and 
        repeat juvenile offenders;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (7) the Federal Government should encourage the 
        States to experiment with progressive solutions to the 
        escalating problem of juveniles who commit violent crimes and 
        who are repeat offenders, including prosecuting all such 
        offenders as adults, but should not impose specific strategies 
        or programs on the States;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (8) an effective strategy for reducing violent 
        juvenile crime requires greater collection of investigative 
        data and other information, such as fingerprints and DNA 
        evidence, as well as greater sharing of such information among 
        Federal, State, and local agencies, including the courts, in 
        the law enforcement and educational systems;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (9) data regarding violent juvenile offenders must 
        be made available to the adult criminal justice system if 
        recidivism by criminals is to be addressed 
        adequately;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (10) holding juvenile proceedings in secret denies 
        victims of crime the opportunity to attend and be heard at such 
        proceedings, helps juvenile offenders to avoid accountability 
        for their actions, and shields juvenile proceedings from public 
        scrutiny and accountability;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (11) the injuries and losses suffered by the 
        victims of violent crime are no less painful or devastating 
        because the offender is a juvenile; and</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (12) the investigation, prosecution, adjudication, 
        and punishment of criminal offenses committed by juveniles is, 
        and should remain, primarily the responsibility of the States, 
        to be carried out without interference from the Federal 
        Government.</DELETED>
<DELETED>    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (1) to reform juvenile law so that the paramount 
        concerns of the juvenile justice system are providing for the 
        safety of the public and holding juvenile wrongdoers 
        accountable for their actions, while providing the wrongdoer a 
        genuine opportunity for self-reform;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (2) to revise the procedures in Federal court that 
        are applicable to the prosecution of juvenile 
        offenders;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (3) to address specifically the problem of violent 
        crime and controlled substance offenses committed by youth 
        gangs; and</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (4) to encourage and promote, consistent with the 
        ideals of federalism, adoption of policies by the States to 
        ensure that the victims of crimes of violence committed by 
        juveniles receive the same level of justice as do victims of 
        violent crimes that are committed by adults.</DELETED>

<DELETED>SEC. 3. SEVERABILITY.</DELETED>

Act, or the application of such provision or amendment to any person or

<DELETED>    Title I of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention 
Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5601 et seq.) is amended to read as 
follows:</DELETED>

   <DELETED>``TITLE I--FINDINGS AND DECLARATION OF PURPOSE</DELETED>

<DELETED>``SEC. 101. FINDINGS.</DELETED>

<DELETED>    ``Congress makes the following findings:</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(1) During the past several years, the United 
        States has experienced an alarming increase in arrests of 
        adolescents for murder, assault, and weapons 
        offenses.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(2) In 1994, juveniles accounted for 1 in 5 
        arrests for violent crimes, including murder, robbery, 
        aggravated assault, and rape, including 514 such arrests per 
        100,000 juveniles 10 through 17 years of age.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(3) Understaffed, overcrowded juvenile courts, 
        prosecutorial and public defender offices, probation services, 
        and correctional facilities no longer adequately address the 
        changing nature of juvenile crime, protect the public, and 
        correct youth offenders.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(4) The juvenile justice system has proven 
        inadequate to meet the needs of society, because insufficient 
        sanctions are imposed on serious youth offenders and the needs 
        of children, who may be at risk of becoming 
        delinquents.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(5) Existing programs and policies have not 
        adequately responded to the particular threat of drugs, alcohol 
        abuse, violence, and gangs pose to the youth of the 
        Nation.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(6) Demographic increases projected in the 
        number of youth offenders require reexamination of the 
        prosecution and incarceration policies for serious violent 
        youth offenders.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(7) State and local communities that experience 
        directly the devastating failures of the juvenile justice 
        system require assistance to deal comprehensively with the 
        problems of juvenile delinquency.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(8) Existing Federal programs have not provided 
        the States with necessary flexibility, and have not provided 
        coordination, resources, and leadership required to meet the 
        crisis of youth violence.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(9) Overlapping and uncoordinated Federal 
        programs have created a multitude of Federal funding streams to 
        State and local governments, that have become a barrier to 
        effective program coordination, responsive public safety 
        initiatives, and the provision of comprehensive services for 
        children and youth.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(10) Violent crime by juveniles constitutes a 
        growing threat to the national welfare that requires an 
        immediate and comprehensive governmental response, combining 
        flexibility and coordinated evaluation.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(11) Limited State and local resources are being 
        wasted complying with the unnecessary Federal mandate that 
        status offenders be deinstitutionalized. Some communities 
        believe that curfews are appropriate for juveniles, and those 
        communities should not be prohibited by the Federal Government 
        from using confinement for status offenses as a means of 
        dealing with delinquent behavior before it becomes criminal 
        conduct.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(12) Limited State and local resources are being 
        wasted complying with the unnecessary Federal mandate that no 
        juvenile be detained or confined in any jail or lockup for 
        adults, because it can be feasible to separate adults and 
        juveniles in 1 facility. This mandate is particularly 
        burdensome for rural communities.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(13) The role of the Federal Government should 
        be to encourage and empower communities to develop and 
        implement policies to protect adequately the public from 
        serious juvenile crime as well as comprehensive programs to 
        reduce risk factors and prevent juvenile delinquency.</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    ``(14) A strong partnership among law enforcement, 
        local government, juvenile and family courts, schools, 
        businesses, philanthropic organizations, families, and the 
        religious community, can create a community environment that 
        supports the youth of the Nation in reaching their highest 
        potential and reduces the destructive trend of juvenile 
        crime.</DELETED>

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) at the outset of the 20th century, the States adopted a 
        separate justice system for juvenile offenders;
            (2) violent crimes committed by juveniles, such as 
        homicide, rape, and robbery, were an unknown phenomenon then, 
        but the rate at which juveniles commit such crimes has 
        escalated astronomically since that time;
            (3) in 1994--
                    (A) the number of persons arrested overall for 
                murder in the United States decreased by 5.8 percent, 
                but the number of persons who are less than 15 years of 
                age arrested for murder increased by 4 percent; and
                    (B) the number of persons arrested for all violent 
                crimes increased by 1.3 percent, but the number of 
                persons who are less than 15 years of age arrested for 
                violent crimes increased by 9.2 percent, and the number 
                of persons less than 18 years of age arrested for such 
                crimes increased by 6.5 percent;
            (4) from 1985 to 1996, the number of persons arrested for 
        all violent crimes increased by 52.3 percent, but the number of 
        persons under age 18 arrested for violent crimes rose by 75 
        percent;
            (5) the number of juvenile offenders is expected to undergo 
        a massive increase during the first 2 decades of the twenty-
        first century, culminating in an unprecedented number of 
        violent offenders who are less than 18 years of age;
            (6) the rehabilitative model of sentencing for juveniles, 
        which Congress rejected for adult offenders when Congress 
        enacted the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, is inadequate and 
        inappropriate for dealing with violent and repeat juvenile 
        offenders;
            (7) the Federal Government should encourage the States to 
        experiment with progressive solutions to the escalating problem 
        of juveniles who commit violent crimes and who are repeat 
        offenders, including prosecuting all such offenders as adults, 
        but should not impose specific strategies or programs on the 
        States;
            (8) an effective strategy for reducing violent juvenile 
        crime requires greater collection of investigative data and 
        other information, such as fingerprints and DNA evidence, as 
        well as greater sharing of such information among Federal, 
        State, and local agencies, including the courts, in the law 
        enforcement and educational systems;
            (9) data regarding violent juvenile offenders must be made 
        available to the adult criminal justice system if recidivism by 
        criminals is to be addressed adequately;
            (10) holding juvenile proceedings in secret denies victims 
        of crime the opportunity to attend and be heard at such 
        proceedings, helps juvenile offenders to avoid accountability 
        for their actions, and shields juvenile proceedings from public 
        scrutiny and accountability;
            (11) the injuries and losses suffered by the victims of 
        violent crime are no less painful or devastating because the 
        offender is a juvenile; and
            (12) the investigation, prosecution, adjudication, and 
        punishment of criminal offenses committed by juveniles is, and 
        should remain, primarily the responsibility of the States, to 
        be carried out without interference from the Federal 
        Government.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to reform juvenile law so that the paramount concerns 
        of the juvenile justice system are providing for the safety of 
        the public and holding juvenile wrongdoers accountable for 
        their actions, while providing the wrongdoer a genuine 
        opportunity for self-reform;
            (2) to revise the procedures in Federal court that are 
        applicable to the prosecution of juvenile offenders;
            (3) to address specifically the problem of violent crime 
        and controlled substance offenses committed by youth gangs; and
            (4) to encourage and promote, consistent with the ideals of 
        federalism, adoption of policies by the States to ensure that 
        the victims of violent crimes committed by juveniles receive 
        the same level of justice as do victims of violent crimes that 
        are committed by adults.

        school at which the individual who is the subject of the 
        juvenile record is enrolled or seeks, intends, or is instructed 
        to enroll, if such school officials are held liable to the same 
        standards and penalties to which law enforcement and juvenile

Prosecutions of Persons Under the Age of 16.--Notwithstanding any other 
provision of law, in the case of a defendant convicted for conduct that 
occurred before the juvenile attained the age of 16 years, the court 
shall impose a sentence without regard to any statutory minimum 
sentence if the court finds at sentencing, after affording the 
Government an opportunity to make a recommendation, that the juvenile 
has not been previously adjudicated delinquent for, or convicted of, a 
serious violent felony or a serious drug offense (as those terms are 
defined in section 3559(c)).

                amendments made by section 111 of the Violent and 
                Repeat Juvenile Offender Act of 1997, the United States 
                Sentencing Commission shall amend the Federal

                adult offender or any juvenile offender being sentenced 
                as an adult, prior juvenile convictions and 
                adjudications for offenses described in paragraph (2) 
                shall receive a score similar to that which the 
                defendant would have received if those offenses had 
                been committed when the defendant was an adult, 
                provided that any portion of the sentence for the 
                offense was imposed or served within 15 years after the 
                commencement of the instant offense.

title 18, United States Code, as amended by section 203 of this title.

            (1) In general.--Pursuant to its authority under section 
        994(p) of title 28, United States Code, the United States

        Guidelines to provide an appropriate enhancement for any 
        Federal offense that is a predicate gang crime (as the term is 
        defined in section 521 of title 18, United States Code), if the 
        offense was both committed in connection with, or in 
        furtherance of, the activities of a criminal gang and the 
        defendant was a member of the criminal gang at the time of the 
        offense.
            (2) Factors to be considered.--In determining an 
        appropriate enhancement under this section, the United States 
        Sentencing Commission shall give great weight to the 
        seriousness of the offense, the offender's relative position in 
        the criminal gang, and the risk of death or serious bodily 
        injury to any person posed by the offense.
    (c) Construction With Other Guidelines.--The amendment made by 
subsection (b) shall provide that the increase in the offense level 
shall be in addition to any other adjustment under chapter 3 of the 
Federal Sentencing Guidelines.

          TITLE III--JUVENILE CRIME CONTROL AND ACCOUNTABILITY

SEC. 301. FINDINGS; DECLARATION OF PURPOSE; DEFINITIONS.

    Title I of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 
1974 (42 U.S.C. 5601 et seq.) is amended to read as follows:

             ``TITLE I--FINDINGS AND DECLARATION OF PURPOSE

``SEC. 101. FINDINGS.

    ``Congress makes the following findings:
            ``(1) During the past several years, the United States has 
        experienced an alarming increase in arrests of adolescents for 
        murder, assault, and weapons offenses.
            ``(2) In 1994, juveniles accounted for 1 in 5 arrests for 
        violent crimes, including murder, robbery, aggravated assault, 
        and rape, including 514 such arrests per 100,000 juveniles 10 
        through 17 years of age.
            ``(3) Understaffed and overcrowded juvenile courts, 
        prosecutorial and public defender offices, probation services, 
        and correctional facilities no longer adequately address the 
        changing nature of juvenile crime, protect the public, or 
        correct youth offenders.
            ``(4) The juvenile justice system has proven inadequate to 
        meet the needs of society, because insufficient sanctions are 
        imposed on serious juvenile offenders, and because the needs of 
        children, who may be at risk of becoming delinquents are not 
        being met.
            ``(5) Existing programs and policies have not adequately 
        responded to the particular threat that drugs, alcohol abuse, 
        violence, and gangs pose to the youth of the Nation.
            ``(6) Projected demographic increases in the number of 
        youth offenders require reexamination of current prosecution 
        and incarceration policies for serious violent youth offenders 
        and crime prevention policies.
            ``(7) State and local communities that experience directly 
        the devastating failures of the juvenile justice system require 
        assistance to deal comprehensively with the problems of 
        juvenile delinquency.
            ``(8) Existing Federal programs have not provided the 
        States with necessary flexibility, nor have these programs 
        provided the coordination, resources, and leadership required 
        to meet the crisis of youth violence.
            ``(9) Overlapping and uncoordinated Federal programs have 
        created a multitude of Federal funding streams to State and 
        local governments, that have become a barrier to effective 
        program coordination, responsive public safety initiatives, and 
        the provision of comprehensive services for children and youth.
            ``(10) Violent crime by juveniles constitutes a growing 
        threat to the national welfare that requires an immediate and 
        comprehensive governmental response, combining flexibility and 
        coordinated evaluation.
            ``(11) Limited State and local resources are being wasted 
        complying with the unnecessary Federal mandate that status 
        offenders be deinstitutionalized. Some communities believe that 
        curfews are appropriate for juveniles, and those communities 
        should not be prohibited by the Federal Government from using 
        confinement for status offenses as a means of dealing with 
        delinquent behavior before it becomes criminal conduct.
            ``(12) Limited State and local resources are being wasted 
        complying with the unnecessary Federal mandate that no juvenile 
        be detained or confined in any jail or lockup for adults, 
        because it can be feasible to separate adults and juveniles in 
        1 facility. This mandate is particularly burdensome for rural 
        communities.
            ``(13) The role of the Federal Government should be to 
        encourage and empower communities to develop and implement 
        policies to protect adequately the public from serious juvenile 
        crime as well as comprehensive programs to reduce risk factors 
        and prevent juvenile delinquency.
            ``(14) A strong partnership among law enforcement, local 
        government, juvenile and family courts, schools, businesses, 
        philanthropic organizations, families, and the religious 
        community, can create a community environment that supports the 
        youth of the Nation in reaching their highest potential and 
        reduces the destructive trend of juvenile crime.

``SEC. 102. PURPOSE AND STATEMENT OF POLICY.

    ``(a) In General.--The purposes of this Act are to--

by any agency, organization, institution, or individual to carry out a 
Federal juvenile delinquency program or activity, any one of the 
Federal agencies providing funds may be requested by the Administrator 
to act for all in administering the funds advanced whenever the 
Administrator finds the program or activity to be exceptionally 
effective or for which the Administrator finds exceptional need. In 
such cases, a single non-Federal share requirement may be established 
according to the proportion of funds advanced by each Federal agency, 
and the Administrator may order any such agency to waive any technical 
grant or contract requirement (as defined in those regulations) which 
is inconsistent with the similar requirement of the administering 
agency or which the administering agency does not impose.''.

                supplement and increase (but not supplant) the level of 
                the State, local, and other non-Federal funds that 
                would in the absence of such Federal funds be made
