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 many 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 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--
                    (A) among Federal, State, and local agencies, 
                including the courts; and
                    (B) among the law enforcement, educational, and 
                social service systems;
            (9) data regarding violent juvenile offenders should 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 prevention, investigation, prosecution, 
        adjudication, and punishment of criminal offenses committed by 
        juveniles, and the rehabilitation and correction of juvenile 
        offenders are, 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 Federal juvenile justice programs and 
        policies in order to promote the emergence of juvenile justice 
        systems in which the paramount concerns 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; and
            (3) 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.

Columbia, the United States Attorney for the district in which such 
person has been arrested may forego prosecution pursuant to section 
5032(a)(2) if, after investigation by the United States Attorney, it 
appears that--
            ``(1) such person has committed an act that is also an 
        offense or an act of delinquency under the law of any State or 
        the District of Columbia;
            ``(2) such State or the District of Columbia, as 
        applicable, can and will assume jurisdiction over such juvenile 
        and will take such juvenile into custody and deal with the 
        juvenile in accordance with the law of such State or the 
        District of Columbia, as applicable; and
            ``(3) it is in the best interests of the United States and

and 1153, certification under subparagraph (A) or (B) of subsection 
(a)(1) shall not be made nor granted with respect to a juvenile who is 
subject to the criminal jurisdiction of an Indian tribal government if 
the juvenile is less than 15 years of age at the time of offense and is 
alleged to have committed an offense for which there would be Federal 
jurisdiction based solely on commission of the offense in Indian 
country (as defined in section 1151), unless the governing body of the 
tribe having jurisdiction over the place where the alleged offense was 
committed has, before the occurrence of the alleged offense, notified 
the Attorney General in writing of its election that prosecution as an 
adult may take place under this section.''.
    (b) Conforming Amendments.--
            (1) Chapter analysis.--The analysis for chapter 403 of

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)).

                which the defendant would have received if those 
                offenses had been committed by the defendant as an 
                adult, if any portion of the sentence for the offense 
                was imposed or served within 15 years after the 
                commencement of the instant offense.

                be adjusted as described in subparagraph (A), and make 
                any amendments to the Federal sentencing guidelines as 
                necessary to make whatever adjustments the Commission 
                concludes are necessary to implement the results of the 
                review.

        the Federal sentencing guidelines and amendments under this

        than 90 days after the date of enactment of the Violent and 
        Repeat Juvenile Offender Accountability and Rehabilitation Act 
        of 1999, in accordance with the procedures set forth in section 
        21(a) of the Sentencing Act of 1987, as though the authority 
        under that authority had not expired, except that the 
        Commission shall submit to Congress the emergency guidelines or 
        amendments promulgated under this section, and shall set an 
        effective date for those guidelines or amendments not earlier 
        than 30 days after their submission to Congress.
            ``(6) Career offender determination.--Pursuant to its 
        authority under section 994 of title 28, the Commission shall 
        amend the Federal sentencing guidelines to provide for 
        inclusion, in any determination regarding whether a juvenile or 
        adult defendant is a career offender under section 994(h) of 
        title 28, and any computation of the sentence that any 
        defendant found to be a career offender should receive, of any 
        act for which the defendant was previously convicted or 
        adjudicated delinquent as a juvenile that would be a felony 
        covered by that section if it had been committed by the

  TITLE III--JUVENILE CRIME CONTROL, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND DELINQUENCY 
                               PREVENTION

 Subtitle A--Reform of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention 
                              Act of 1974

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 decade, 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 and 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 threats 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 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 States and 
        units of local government, 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) 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 implement quality prevention programs that 
        work with at-risk juveniles, their families, local public 
        agencies, and community-based organizations.
            ``(12) A strong partnership among law enforcement, local 
        government, juvenile and family courts, schools, public 
        recreation agencies, 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.

        Child Pornography Tipline, in conjunction with the United 
        States Customs Service and the United States Postal Inspection

        CyberTipline on child exploitation, thus becoming `the 911 for 
        the Internet';

        in cases of child abduction, the Director of the Federal Bureau 
        of Investigation in February of 1997 created a new NCIC child 
        abduction (`CA') flag to provide the Center immediate 
        notification in the most serious cases, resulting in 642 `CA' 
        notifications to the Center and helping the Center to have its 
        highest recovery rate in history;

        with Scotland Yard in the United Kingdom, the Royal Canadian 
        Mounted Police, INTERPOL headquarters in Lyon, France, and

        dramatically, as evidenced by the fact that in 1997, the Center 
        handled 129,100 calls, an all-time record, and by the fact that 
        its new Internet website (www.missingkids.com) receives 
        1,500,000 `hits' every day, and is linked with hundreds of 
        other websites to provide real-time images of breaking cases of

        Center has performed 668 onsite hospital walk-throughs and 
        inspections, and trained 45,065 hospital administrators, 
        nurses, and security personnel, and thereby helped to reduce 
        infant abductions in the United States by 82 percent;

        international child abduction cases, serving as a 
        representative of the Department of State at cases under The 
        Hague Convention, and successfully resolving the cases of 343 
        international child abductions, and providing greater support 
        to parents in the United States;
            ``(19) the Center is a model of public/private partnership, 
        raising private sector funds to match congressional 
        appropriations and receiving extensive private in-kind support, 
        including advanced technology provided by the computer industry 
        such as imaging technology used to age the photographs of long-
        term missing children and to reconstruct facial images of 
        unidentified deceased children;
            ``(20) the Center was 1 of only 10 of 300 major national 
        charities given an A+ grade in 1997 by the American Institute 
        of Philanthropy; and
            ``(21) the Center has been redesignated as the Nation's 
        missing children clearinghouse and resource center once every 3 
        years through a competitive selection process conducted by the 
        Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention of the

                        enforcement initiatives, such as Federal and

                        officers in the supervision of juvenile 
                        offenders, such as initiatives that coordinate 
                        the efforts of parents, school officials, and 
                        police and probation officers to patrol the 
                        streets and make home visits to ensure that 
                        offenders comply with the terms of their

                        programs are in place, such as programs that 
                        provide after-school safe havens and other 
                        opportunities for at-risk youth to escape or 
                        avoid gang or other criminal activity, and to 
                        reduce recidivism.

                            (i) establish a system to measure and

                        and provide assurances that the plan will be 
                        evaluated on a regular basis to assess progress 
                        in reducing violent juvenile crime.

                coalition, including in-kind contributions, for that 
                fiscal year.
                    (B) Nonsupplanting requirement.--A coalition 
                seeking funds shall provide reasonable assurances that 
                funds made available under this program to States or 
                units of local government shall be so used as to 
                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 
                available for programs described in this section, and 
                shall in no event replace such State, local, or other 
                non-Federal funds.

                continue to meet the criteria set forth in this 
                section, the Administrator may suspend the grant, after 
                providing written notice to the grant recipient and an 
                opportunity to appeal.
                    (D) Renewal grants.--Subject to subparagraph (D), 
                the Administrator may award a renewal grant to grant 
                recipient under this subparagraph for each fiscal year 
                following the fiscal year for which an initial grant is 
                awarded, in an amount not to exceed the amount of non-
                Federal funds raised by the coalition, including in-
                kind contributions, for that fiscal year, during the 4-

SEC. 345. GRANTS TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM OF VIOLENCE RELATED STRESS TO 
              PARENTS AND CHILDREN.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that a child's brain is wired 
between the ages of 0-3. A child's ability to learn, develop healthy 
family and social relationships, resist peer pressure, and control 
violent impulses depends on the quality and quantity of brain 
stimulation he receives. Research shows that children exposed to 
negative brain stimulation in the form of physical and sexual abuse and 
violence in the family or community causes the brain to be miswired 
making it difficult for the child to be successful in life. 
Intervention early in a child's life to correct the miswiring is much 
more successful than adult rehabilitation efforts.
    (b) In General.--The Secretary shall award grants, enter into 
contracts or cooperative agreements to public and nonprofit private 
entities, as well as to Indian tribes, Native Hawaiians, and Alaska 
Native nonprofit corporations to establish national and regional 
centers of excellence on psychological trauma response and to identify 
the best practices for treating psychiatric and behavioral disorders 
resulting from children witnessing or experiencing such stress.
    (c) Priorities.--In awarding grants, contracts or cooperative 
agreements under subsection (a) related to the identifying best 
practices for treating disorders associated with psychological trauma, 
the Secretary shall give priority to programs that work with children, 
adolescents, adults, and families who are survivors and witnesses of 
child abuse, domestic, school, and community violence, and disasters.
    (d) Geographical Distribution.--The Secretary shall ensure that 
grants, contracts, or cooperative agreements under subsection (a) with 
respect to centers of excellence are distributed equitably among the 
regions of the country and among urban and rural areas.
    (e) Evaluation.--The Secretary shall require that each applicant 
for a grant, contract or cooperative agreement under subsection (a) 
submit a plan as part of his application for the rigorous evaluation of 
the activities funded under the grant, contract or agreement, including 
both process and outcomes evaluation, and the submission of an 
evaluation at the end of the project period.
    (f) Duration of Awards.--With respect to a grant, contract or 
cooperative agreement under this section, the period during which 
payments under such an award will be made to the recipient may not be 
less than 3 years. Such grants, contract or agreement may be renewed.
    (g) Report.--Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of 
this section, the General Accounting Office shall prepare and submit to 
the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions of the Senate 
and the Committee on Commerce of the House of Representatives a report 
concerning whether individuals are covered for post-traumatic stress 
disorders under public and private health plans, and the course of 
treatment, if any, that is covered.
    (h) Authorization of Appropriations.--There is authorized to be 
appropriated such sums as are necessary to carry out this section for 
fiscal year 2000 and subsequent fiscal years.

     TITLE IV--VOLUNTARY MEDIA AGREEMENTS FOR CHILDREN'S PROTECTION

                   Subtitle A--Children and the Media

SEC. 401. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Children's Protection Act of 
1999''.

SEC. 402. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Television is seen and heard in nearly every United 
        States home and is a uniquely pervasive presence in the daily 
        lives of Americans. The average American home has 2.5 
        televisions, and a television is turned on in the average 
        American home 7 hours every day.
            (2) Television plays a particularly significant role in the 
        lives of children. Figures provided by Nielsen Research show 
        that children between the ages of 2 years and 11 years spend an 
        average of 21 hours in front of a television each week.
            (3) Television has an enormous capability to influence 
        perceptions, especially those of children, of the values and 
        behaviors that are common and acceptable in society.
            (4) The influence of television is so great that its images 
        and messages often can be harmful to the development of 
        children. Social science research amply documents a strong 
        correlation between the exposure of children to televised 
        violence and a number of behavioral and psychological problems.
            (5) Hundreds of studies have proven conclusively that 
        children who are consistently exposed to violence on television 
        have a higher tendency to exhibit violent and aggressive 
        behavior, both as children and later in life.
            (6) Such studies also show that repeated exposure to 
        violent programming causes children to become desensitized to 
        and more accepting of real-life violence and to grow more 
        fearful and less trusting of their surroundings.
            (7) A growing body of social science research indicates 
        that sexual content on television can also have a significant 
        influence on the attitudes and behaviors of young viewers. This 
        research suggests that heavy exposure to programming with 
        strong sexual content contributes to the early commencement of 
        sexual activity among teenagers.
            (8) Members of the National Association of Broadcasters 
        (NAB) adhered for many years to a comprehensive code of conduct 
        that was based on an understanding of the influence exerted by 
        television and on a widely held sense of responsibility for 
        using that influence carefully.
            (9) This code of conduct, the Television Code of the 
        National Association of Broadcasters, articulated this sense of 
        responsibility as follows:
                    (A) ``In selecting program subjects and themes, 
                great care must be exercised to be sure that the 
                treatment and presentation are made in good faith and 
                not for the purpose of sensationalism or to shock or 
                exploit the audience or appeal to prurient interests or 
                morbid curiosity.''.
                    (B) ``Broadcasters have a special responsibility 
                toward children. Programs designed primarily for 
                children should take into account the range of 
                interests and needs of children, from instructional and 
                cultural material to a wide variety of entertainment 
                material. In their totality, programs should contribute 
                to the sound, balanced development of children to help 
                them achieve a sense of the world at large and informed 
                adjustments to their society.''.
                    (C) ``Violence, physical, or psychological, may 
                only be projected in responsibly handled contexts, not 
                used exploitatively. Programs involving violence 
                present the consequences of it to its victims and 
                perpetrators. Presentation of the details of violence 
                should avoid the excessive, the gratuitous and the 
                instructional.''.
                    (D) ``The presentation of marriage, family, and 
                similarly important human relationships, and material 
                with sexual connotations, shall not be treated 
                exploitatively or irresponsibly, but with 
                sensitivity.''.
                    (E) ``Above and beyond the requirements of the law, 
                broadcasters must consider the family atmosphere in 
                which many of their programs are viewed. There shall be 
                no graphic portrayal of sexual acts by sight or sound. 
                The portrayal of implied sexual acts must be essential 
                to the plot and presented in a responsible and tasteful 
                manner.''.
            (10) The National Association of Broadcasters abandoned the 
        code of conduct in 1983 after three provisions of the code 
        restricting the sale of advertising were challenged by the 
        Department of Justice on antitrust grounds and a Federal 
        district court issued a summary judgment against the National 
        Association of Broadcasters regarding one of the provisions on 
        those grounds. However, none of the programming standards of 
        the code were challenged.
            (11) While the code of conduct was in effect, its 
        programming standards were never found to have violated any 
        antitrust law.
            (12) Since the National Association of Broadcasters 
        abandoned the code of conduct, programming standards on 
        broadcast and cable television have deteriorated dramatically.
            (13) In the absence of effective programming standards, 
        public concern about the impact of television on children, and 
        on society as a whole, has risen substantially. Polls routinely 
        show that more than 80 percent of Americans are worried by the 
        increasingly graphic nature of sex, violence, and vulgarity on 
        television and by the amount of programming that openly 
        sanctions or glorifies criminal, antisocial, and degrading 
        behavior.
            (14) At the urging of Congress, the television industry has 
        taken some steps to respond to public concerns about 
        programming standards and content. The broadcast television 
        industry agreed in 1992 to adopt a set of voluntary guidelines 
        designed to ``proscribe gratuitous or excessive portrayals of 
        violence''. Shortly thereafter, both the broadcast and cable 
        television industries agreed to conduct independent studies of 
        the violent content in their programming and make those reports 
        public.
            (15) In 1996, the television industry as a whole made a 
        commitment to develop a comprehensive rating system to label 
        programming that may be harmful or inappropriate for children. 
        That system was implemented at the beginning of 1999.
            (16) Despite these efforts to respond to public concern 
        about the impact of television on children, millions of 
        Americans, especially parents with young children, remain angry 
        and frustrated at the sinking standards of television 
        programming, the reluctance of the industry to police itself, 
        and the harmful influence of television on the well-being of 
        the children and the values of the United States.
            (17) The Department of Justice issued a ruling in 1993 
        indicating that additional efforts by the television industry 
        to develop and implement voluntary programming guidelines would 
        not violate the antitrust laws. The ruling states that ``such 
        activities may be likened to traditional standard setting 
        efforts that do not necessarily restrain competition and may 
        have significant procompetitive benefits . . . . Such 
        guidelines could serve to disseminate valuable information on 
        program content to both advertisers and television viewers. 
        Accurate information can enhance the demand for, and increase 
        the output of, an industry's products or services.''.
            (18) The Children's Television Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-
        437) states that television broadcasters in the United States 
        have a clear obligation to meet the educational and 
        informational needs of children.
            (19) Several independent analyses have demonstrated that 
        the television broadcasters in the United States have not 
        fulfilled their obligations under the Children's Television Act 
        of 1990 and have not noticeably expanded the amount of 
        educational and informational programming directed at young 
        viewers since the enactment of that Act.
            (20) The popularity of video and personal computer (PC) 
        games is growing steadily among children. Although most popular 
        video and personal computer games are educational or harmless 
        in nature, many of the most popular are extremely violent. One 
        recent study by Strategic Record Research found that 64 percent 
        of teenagers played video or personal computer games on a 
        regular basis. Other surveys of children as young as elementary 
        school age found that almost half of them list violent computer 
        games among their favorites.
            (21) Violent video games often present violence in a 
        glamorized light. Game players are often cast in the role of 
        shooter, with points scored for each ``kill''. Similarly, 
        advertising for such games often touts violent content as a 
        selling point--the more graphic and extreme, the better.
            (22) As the popularity and graphic nature of such video 
        games grows, so do their potential to negatively influence 
        impressionable children.
            (23) Music is another extremely pervasive and popular form 
        of entertainment. American children and teenagers listen to 
        music more than any other demographic group. The Journal of 
        American Medicine reported that between the 7th and 12th grades 
        the average teenager listens to 10,500 hours of rock or rap 
        music, just slightly less than the entire number of hours spent 
        in the classroom from kindergarten through high school.
            (24) Teens are among the heaviest purchasers of music, and 
        are most likely to favor music genres that depict, and often 
        appear to glamorize violence.
            (25) Music has a powerful ability to influence perceptions, 
        attitudes, and emotional state. The use of music as therapy 
        indicates its potential to increase emotional, psychological. 
        and physical health. That influence can be used for ill as 
        well.

                TITLE VII--EFFECTIVE GUN LAW ENFORCEMENT

             Subtitle A--Criminal Use of Firearms by Felons

SEC. 701. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be referred to as the ``Criminal Use of Firearms 
by Felons (CUFF) Act''.

SEC. 702. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Tragedies such as those occurring recently in the 
        communities of Pearl, Mississippi, Paducah, Kentucky, 
        Jonesboro, Arkansas, Springfield, Oregon, and Littleton, 
        Colorado are terrible reminders of the vulnerability of 
        innocent individuals to random and senseless acts of criminal 
        violence.
            (2) The United States Congress has responded to the problem 
        of gun violence by passing numerous criminal statutes and by 
        supporting the development of law enforcement programs designed 
        both to punish the criminal misuse of weapons and also to deter 
        individuals from undertaking illegal acts.
            (3) In 1988, the Administration initiated an innovative 
        program known as Project Achilles. The concept behind the 
        initiative was that the illegal possession of firearms was the 
        Achilles heel or the area of greatest vulnerability of 
        criminals. By aggressively prosecuting criminals with guns in 
        Federal court, the offenders were subject to stiffer penalties 
        and expedited prosecutions. The Achilles program was 
        particularly effective in removing the most violent criminals 
        from our communities.
            (4) In 1991, the Administration expanded its efforts to 
        remove criminals with guns from our streets with Project 
        Triggerlock. Triggerlock continued the ideas formulated in the 
        Achilles program and committed the Department of Justice 
        resources to the prosecution effort. Under the program, every 
        United States Attorney was directed to form special teams of 
        Federal, State, and local investigators to look for gang and 
        drug cases that could be prosecuted as Federal weapon 
        violations. Congress appropriated additional funds to allow a 
        large number of new law enforcement officers and Federal 
        prosecutors to target these gun and drug offenders. In 1992, 
        approximately 7048 defendants were prosecuted under this 
        initiative.
            (5) Since 1993, the number of ``Project Triggerlock'' type 
        gun prosecutions pursued by the Department of Justice has 
        fallen to approximately 3807 prosecutions in 1998. This is a 
        decline of over 40 percent in Federal prosecutions of criminals 
        with guns.
            (6) The threat of criminal prosecution in the Federal 
        criminal justice system works to deter criminal behavior 
        because the Federal system is known for speedier trials and 
        longer prison sentences.
            (7) The deterrent effect of Federal gun prosecutions has 
        been demonstrated recently by successful programs, such as 
        ``Project Exile'' in Richmond, Virginia, which resulted in a 22 
        percent decrease in violent crime since 1994.
            (8) The Department of Justice's failure to prosecute the 
        criminal use of guns under existing Federal law undermines the 
        significant deterrent effect that these laws are meant to 
        produce.
            (9) The Department of Justice already possesses a vast 
        array of Federal criminal statutes that, if used aggressively 
        to prosecute wrongdoers, would significantly reduce both the 
        threat of, and the incidence of, criminal gun violence.
            (10) As an example, the Department of Justice has the 
        statutory authority in section 922(q) of title 18, United 
        States Code, to prosecute individuals who bring guns to school 
        zones. Although the Administration stated that over 6,000 
        students were expelled last year for bringing guns to school, 
        the Justice Department reports prosecuting only 8 cases under 
        section 922(q) in 1998.
            (11) The Department of Justice is also empowered under 
        section 922(x) of title 18, United States Code, to prosecute 
        adults who transfer handguns to juveniles. In 1998, the 
        Department of Justice reports having prosecuted only 6 
        individuals under this provision.
            (12) The Department of Justice's utilization of existing 
        prosecutorial power is 1 of the most significant steps that can 
        be taken to reduce the number of criminal acts involving guns, 
        and represents a better response to the problem of criminal 
        violence than the enactment of new, symbolic laws, which, if 
        current Departmental trends hold, would likely be 
        underutilized.

of 1999''.

SEC. 1102. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The ability of teachers, principals and other school 
        professionals to teach, inspire and shape the intellect of our 
        Nation's elementary and secondary school students is deterred 
        and hindered by frivolous lawsuits and litigation.
            (2) Each year more and more teachers, principals and other 
        school professionals face lawsuits for actions undertaken as 
        part of their duties to provide millions of school children 
        quality educational opportunities.
            (3) Too many teachers, principals and other school 
        professionals face increasingly severe and random acts of 
        violence in the classroom and in schools.
            (4) Providing teachers, principals and other school 
        professionals a safe and secure environment is an important 
        part of the effort to improve and expand educational 
        opportunities.
            (5) Clarifying and limiting the liability of teachers, 
        principals and other school professionals who undertake 
        reasonable actions to maintain order, discipline and an 
        appropriate educational environment is an appropriate subject 
        of Federal legislation because--
                    (A) the national scope of the problems created by 
                the legitimate fears of teachers, principals and other 
                school professionals about frivolous, arbitrary or 
                capricious lawsuits against teachers; and
                    (B) millions of children and their families across 
                the Nation depend on teachers, principals and other 
                school professionals for the intellectual development 
                of the children.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this title is to provide teachers, 
principals and other school professionals the tools they need to 
undertake reasonable actions to maintain order, discipline and an 
appropriate educational environment.

SEC. 1103. PREEMPTION AND ELECTION OF STATE NONAPPLICABILITY.

protection from liability relating to teachers.
    (b) Election of State Regarding Nonapplicability.--This title shall 
not apply to any civil action in a State court against a teacher in 
which all parties are citizens of the State if such State enacts a 
statute in accordance with State requirements for enacting 
legislation--
            (1) citing the authority of this subsection;
            (2) declaring the election of such State that this title

        expel, or suspend a student or maintain order or control in the 
        classroom or school;
            (3) if appropriate or required, the teacher was properly

Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect the liability of 
any school or governmental entity with respect to harm caused to any 
person.
    (d) Exceptions to Teacher Liability Protection.--If the laws of a 
State limit teacher liability subject to one or more of the following 
conditions, such conditions shall not be construed as inconsistent with 
this section:
            (1) A State law that requires a school or governmental 
        entity to adhere to risk management procedures, including 
        mandatory training of teachers.
            (2) A State law that makes the school or governmental 
        entity liable for the acts or omissions of its teachers to the 
        same extent as an employer is liable for the acts or omissions 
        of its employees.
            (3) A State law that makes a limitation of liability 
        inapplicable if the civil action was brought by an officer of a 
        State or local government pursuant to State or local law.
    (e) Limitation on Punitive Damages Based on the Actions of 
Teachers.--
            (1) General rule.--Punitive damages may not be awarded 
        against a teacher in an action brought for harm based on the 
        action of a teacher acting within the scope of the teacher's 
        responsibilities to a school or governmental entity unless the 
        claimant establishes by clear and convincing evidence that the 
        harm was proximately caused by an action of such teacher which 
        constitutes willful or criminal misconduct, or a conscious, 
        flagrant indifference to the rights or safety of the individual 
        harmed.
            (2) Construction.--Paragraph (1) does not create a cause of 
        action for punitive damages and does not preempt or supersede 
        any Federal or State law to the extent that such law would 
        further limit the award of punitive damages.
    (f) Exceptions to Limitations on Liability.--
            (1) In general.--The limitations on the liability of a 
        teacher under this title shall not apply to any misconduct 
        that--

                rights law; or
                    (D) where the defendant was under the influence (as 
                determined pursuant to applicable State law) of 
                intoxicating alcohol or any drug at the time of the 
                misconduct.
            (2) Rule of construction.--Nothing in this subsection shall

SEC. 1105. LIABILITY FOR NONECONOMIC LOSS.

    (a) General Rule.--In any civil action against a teacher, based on

 TITLE XII--VIOLENCE PREVENTION TRAINING FOR EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATORS

SEC. 1201. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``Violence Prevention Training for 
Early Childhood Educators Act''.

SEC. 1202. PURPOSE.

    The purpose of this title is to provide grants to institutions that 
carry out early childhood education training programs to enable the 
institutions to include violence prevention training as part of the 
preparation of individuals pursuing careers in early childhood 
development and education.

SEC. 1203. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Aggressive behavior in early childhood is the single 
        best predictor of aggression in later life.
            (2) Aggressive and defiant behavior predictive of later 
        delinquency is increasing among our Nation's youngest children. 
        Without prevention efforts, higher percentages of juveniles are 
        likely to become violent juvenile offenders.
            (3) Research has demonstrated that aggression is primarily 
        a learned behavior that develops through observation, 
        imitation, and direct experience. Therefore, children who 
        experience violence as victims or as witnesses are at increased 
        risk of becoming violent themselves.
            (4) In a study at a Boston city hospital, 1 out of every 10 
        children seen in the primary care clinic had witnessed a 
        shooting or a stabbing before the age of 6, with 50 percent of 
        the children witnessing in the home and 50 percent of the 
        children witnessing in the streets.
            (5) A study in New York found that children who had been 
        victims of violence within their families were 24 percent more 
        likely to report violent behavior as adolescents, and 
        adolescents who had grown up in families where partner violence 
        occurred were 21 percent more likely to report violent 
        delinquency than individuals not exposed to violence.
            (6) Aggression can become well-learned and difficult to 
        change by the time a child reaches adolescence. Early childhood 
        offers a critical period for overcoming risk for violent 
        behavior and providing support for prosocial behavior.
            (7) Violence prevention programs for very young children 
        yield economic benefits. By providing health and stability to 
        the individual child and the child's family, the programs may 
        reduce expenditures for medical care, special education, and 
        involvement with the judicial system.
            (8) Primary prevention can be effective. When preschool 
        teachers teach young children interpersonal problem-solving 
        skills and other forms of conflict resolution, children are 
        less likely to demonstrate problem behaviors.
            (9) There is evidence that family support programs in 
        families with children from birth through 5 years of age are 
        effective in preventing delinquency.

SEC. 1204. DEFINITIONS.

    In this title:
            (1) At-risk child.--The term ``at-risk child'' means a 
        child who has been affected by violence through direct exposure

            (2) Early childhood education training program.--The term 
        ``early childhood education training program'' means a program 
        that--
                    (A)(i) trains individuals to work with young 
                children in early child development programs or 
                elementary schools; or
                    (ii) provides professional development to 
                individuals working in early child development programs 
                or elementary schools;
                    (B) provides training to become an early childhood 
                education teacher, an elementary school teacher, a 
                school counselor, or a child care provider; and
                    (C) leads to a bachelor's degree or an associate's 
                degree, a certificate for working with young children 
                (such as a Child Development Associate's degree or an 
                equivalent credential), or, in the case of an 
                individual with such a degree, certificate, or 
                credential, provides professional development.
            (3) Elementary school.--The term ``elementary school'' has 
        the meaning given the term in section 14101 of the Elementary 
        and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 8801).
            (4) Violence prevention.--The term ``violence prevention'' 
        means--
                    (A) preventing violent behavior in children;
                    (B) identifying and preventing violent behavior in 
                at-risk children; or
                    (C) identifying and ameliorating violent behavior 
                in children who act out violently.

saying of a prayer, the reading of a scripture, or the performance of 
religious music as part of a memorial service that is held on the 
campus of a public school in order to honor the memory of any person 
slain on that campus does not violate the First Amendment to the 
Constitution of the United States, and that the design and construction 
of any memorial that is placed on the campus of a public school in 
order to honor the memory of any person slain on that campus a part of 
which includes religious symbols, motifs, or sayings does not violate 
the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.

memorial service described in subsection (a) violates the Constitution 
of the United States--
            (1) each party shall pay its own attorney's fees and costs,

        likely to begin using illegal drugs than at-risk young people 
        without mentors;

SEC. 1528. LOCAL ENFORCEMENT OF LOCAL ALCOHOL PROHIBITIONS THAT REDUCE 
              JUVENILE CRIME IN REMOTE ALASKA VILLAGES.

    (a) Congressional Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) Villages in remote areas of Alaska lack local law 
        enforcement due to the absence of a tax base to support such 
        services and to small populations that do not secure sufficient 
        funds under existing State and Federal grant program formulas.
            (2) State troopers are often unable to respond to reports 
        of violence in remote villages if there is inclement weather, 
        and often only respond in reported felony cases.
            (3) Studies conclude that alcohol consumption is strongly 
        linked to the commission of violent crimes in remote Alaska 
        villages and that youth are particularly susceptible to 
        developing chronic criminal behaviors associated with alcohol 
        in the absence of early intervention.
            (4) Many remote villages have sought to limit the 
        introduction of alcohol into their communities as a means of 
        early intervention and to reduce criminal conduct among 
        juveniles.
            (5) In many remote villages, there is no person with the 
        authority to enforce these local alcohol restrictions in a 
        manner consistent with judicical standards of due process 
        required under the State and Federal constitutions.
            (6) Remote Alaska villages are experiencing a marked 
        increase in births and the number of juveniles residing in 
        villages is expected to increase dramatically in the next 5 
        years.
            (7) Adoption of alcohol prohibitions by voters in remote 
        villages represents a community-based effort to reduce juvenile 
        crime, but this local policy choice requires local law 
        enforcement to be effective.
    (b) Grant of Federal Funds.--(1) The Attorney General is authorized 
to provide to the State of Alaska funds for State law enforcement, 
judicial infrastructure and other costs necessary in remote villages to 
implement the prohibitions on the sale, importation and possession of 
alcohol adopted pursuant to State local option statutes.
    (2) Funds provided to the State of Alaska under this section shall 
be in addition to and shall not disqualify the State, local 
governments, or Indian tribes (as that term is defined in section 4(e) 
of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (P.L. 93-
638, as amended; 25 U.S.C. 450b(e) (1998)) from Federal funds available 
under other authority.
    (c) Authorization of Appropriations.--
            (1) In General.--There are authorized to be appropriated to 
        carry out this section--
                    (A) $15,000,000 for fiscal year 2000;
                    (B) $17,000,000 for fiscal year 2001;
                    (C) $18,000,000 for fiscal year 2002.
            (2) Source of sums.--Amounts authorized to be appropriated 
        under this subsection may be derived from the Violent Crime 
        Reduction Trust Fund.

SEC. 1529. RULE OF CONSTRUCTION.

    Nothing in this Act may be construed to create, expand or diminish 
or in any way affect the jurisdiction of an Indian tribe in the State 
of Alaska.

SEC. 1530. BOUNTY HUNTER ACCOUNTABILITY AND QUALITY ASSISTANCE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) bounty hunters, also known as bail enforcement officers 
        or recovery agents, provide law enforcement officers and the 
        courts with valuable assistance in recovering fugitives from 
        justice;
            (2) regardless of the differences in their duties, skills, 
        and responsibilities, the public has had difficulty in 
        discerning the difference between law enforcement officers and 
        bounty hunters;
            (3) the availability of bail as an alternative to the 
        pretrial detention or unsecured release of criminal defendants 
        is important to the effective functioning of the criminal 
        justice system;
            (4) the safe and timely return to custody of fugitives who 
        violate bail contracts is an important matter of public safety, 
        as is the return of any other fugitive from justice;
            (5) bail bond agents are widely regulated by the States, 
        whereas bounty hunters are largely unregulated;
            (6) the public safety requires the employment of qualified, 
        well-trained bounty hunters; and
            (7) in the course of their duties, bounty hunters often 
        move in and affect interstate commerce.
    (b) Definitions.--In this section--
            (1) the term ``bail bond agent'' means any retail seller of 
        a bond to secure the release of a criminal defendant pending

                any fugitive from justice who has been released on 
                bail; and
                    (B) does not include any--

                        section 101(d)(1) of title 10, United States 
                        Code); or
                            (v) bail bond agent;
            (3) the term ``bounty hunter employer''--
                    (A) means any person that--
                            (i) employs 1 or more bounty hunters; or
                            (ii) provides, as an independent 
                        contractor, for consideration, the services of 
                        1 or more bounty hunters (which may include the 
                        services of that person); and
                    (B) does not include any bail bond agent; and

        investigation, prosecution, or adjudication of criminal 
        offenses, including any public officer or employee engaged in 
        corrections, parole, or probation functions, or the recovery of 
        any fugitive from justice.
    (c) Model Guidelines.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than 180 days after the date of 
        enactment of this Act, the Attorney General shall develop model 
        guidelines for the State control and regulation of persons 
        employed or applying for employment as bounty hunters. In

                            (i) be required to submit to a fingerprint-
                        based criminal background check prior to 
                        entering into the performance of duties 
                        pursuant to employment as a bounty hunter; or
                            (ii) not be allowed to obtain such 
                        employment if that person has been convicted of 
                        a felony offense under Federal or State law;
                    (B) bounty hunters and bounty hunter employers 
                should be required to obtain adequate liability 
                insurance for actions taken in the course of performing 
                duties pursuant to employment as a bounty hunter; and
                    (C) State laws should provide--
                            (i) for the prohibition on bounty hunters 
                        entering any private dwelling, unless the

                        and announces the presence of 1 or more bounty 
                        hunters; and
                            (ii) the official recognition of bounty 
                        hunters from other States.
            (3) Effect on bail.--The guidelines published under 
        paragraph (1) shall include an analysis of the estimated

                    (A) the cost and availability of bail; and
                    (B) the bail bond agent industry.
            (4) No regulatory authority.--Nothing in this subsection 
        may be construed to authorize the promulgation of any Federal

        or bail bond agents.
            (5) Publication of guidelines.--The Attorney General shall

SEC. 1532. FINDINGS AND SENSE OF CONGRESS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings--
            (1) The Nation's highest priority should be to ensure that 
        children begin school ready to learn.
            (2) New scientific research shows that the electrical 
        activity of brain cells actually changes the physical structure 
        of the brain itself and that without a stimulating environment, 
        a baby's brain will suffer. At birth, a baby's brain contains 
        100,000,000,000 neurons, roughly as many nerve cells as there 
        are stars in the Milky Way, but the wiring pattern between 
        these neurons develops over time. Children who play very little 
        or are rarely touched develop brains that are 20 to 30 percent 
        smaller than normal for their age.
            (3) This scientific research also conclusively demonstrates 
        that enhancing children's physical, social, emotional, and 
        intellectual development will result in tremendous benefits for 
        children, families, and the Nation.
            (4) Since more than 50 percent of the mothers of children 
        under the age of 3 now work outside of the home, society must 
        change to provide new supports so young children receive the 
        attention and care that they need.
            (5) There are 12,000,000 children under the age of 3 in the 
        United States today and 1 in 4 lives in poverty.
            (6) Compared with most other industrialized countries, the 
        United States has a higher infant mortality rate, a higher 
        proportion of low-birth weight babies, and a smaller proportion 
        of babies immunized against childhood diseases.
            (7) National and local studies have found a strong link 
        between--
                    (A) lack of early intervention for children; and
                    (B) increased violence and crime among youth.
            (8) The United States will spend more than $35,000,000,000 
        over the next 5 years on Federal programs for at-risk or 
        delinquent youth and child welfare programs, which address 
        crisis situations that frequently could have been avoided or 
        made much less severe through good early intervention for 
        children.
            (9) Many local communities across the country have 
        developed successful early childhood efforts and with 
        additional resources could expand and enhance opportunities for 
        young children.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that Federal 
funding for early childhood development collaboratives should be a 
priority in the Federal budget for fiscal year 2000 and subsequent 
fiscal years.

SEC. 1533. PROHIBITION ON PROMOTING VIOLENCE ON FEDERAL PROPERTY.

    (a) General Rule.--A Federal department or agency that--
            (1) considers a request from an individual or entity for 
        the use of any property, facility, equipment, or personnel of 
        the department or agency, or for any other cooperation from the 
        department or agency, to film a motion picture or television 
        production for commercial purposes; and
            (2) makes a determination as to whether granting a request 
        described in paragraph (1) is consistent with--
                    (A) United States policy;
                    (B) the mission or interest of the department or 
                agency; or
                    (C) the public interest;
shall not grant such a request without considering whether such motion 
picture or television production glorifies or endorses wanton and 
gratuitous violence.
    (b) Exception.--Subsection (a) shall not apply to--
            (1) any bona fide newsreel or news television production; 
        or
            (2) any public service announcement.

SEC. 1534. PROVISIONS RELATING TO PAWN SHOPS AND SPECIAL LICENSEES.

    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, the repeal 
heretofore effected by paragraph (1) and the amendment heretofore 
effected by paragraph (2) of subsection (c) with the heading 
``Provision Related to Pawn and Other Transactions'' of section 503 of 
title V with the heading ``General Firearm Provisions'' shall be null 
and void.
    (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, section 
923(m)(1), of title 18, United States Code, as heretofore provided, is 
amended by adding at the end the following subparagraph:
                    ``(F) Compliance.--Except as to the State and local 
                planning and zoning requirements for a licensed 
                premises as provided in subparagraph (D), a special 
                licensee shall be subject to all of the provisions of 
                this chapter applicable to dealers, including, but not 
                limited to, the performance of an instant background 
                check.''.

SEC. 1535. EXTENSION OF BRADY BACKGROUND CHECKS TO GUN SHOWS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) more than 4,400 traditional gun shows are held annually 
        across the United States, attracting thousands of attendees per 
        show and hundreds of Federal firearms licensees and nonlicensed 
        firearms sellers;
            (2) traditional gun shows, as well as flea markets and 
        other organized events, at which a large number of firearms are 
        offered for sale by Federal firearms licensees and nonlicensed 
        firearms sellers, form a significant part of the national 
        firearms market;
            (3) firearms and ammunition that are exhibited or offered 
        for sale or exchange at gun shows, flea markets, and other 
        organized events move easily in and substantially affect 
        interstate commerce;
            (4) in fact, even before a firearm is exhibited or offered 
        for sale or exchange at a gun show, flea market, or other 
        organized event, the gun, its component parts, ammunition, and 
        the raw materials from which it is manufactured have moved in 
        interstate commerce;
            (5) gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events at 
        which firearms are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, 
        provide a convenient and centralized commercial location at 
        which firearms may be bought and sold anonymously, often 
        without background checks and without records that enable gun 
        tracing;
            (6) at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events 
        at which guns are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, 
        criminals and other prohibited persons obtain guns without 
        background checks and frequently use guns that cannot be traced 
        to later commit crimes;
            (7) many persons who buy and sell firearms at gun shows, 
        flea markets, and other organized events cross State lines to 
        attend these events and engage in the interstate transportation 
        of firearms obtained at these events;
            (8) gun violence is a pervasive, national problem that is 
        exacerbated by the availability of guns at gun shows, flea 
        markets, and other organized events;
            (9) firearms associated with gun shows have been 
        transferred illegally to residents of another State by Federal 
        firearms licensees and nonlicensed firearms sellers, and have 
        been involved in subsequent crimes including drug offenses, 
        crimes of violence, property crimes, and illegal possession of 
        firearms by felons and other prohibited persons; and
            (10) Congress has the power, under the interstate commerce 
        clause and other provisions of the Constitution of the United 
        States, to ensure, by enactment of this Act, that criminals and 
        other prohibited persons do not obtain firearms at gun shows, 
        flea markets, and other organized events.
    (b) Definitions.--Section 921(a) of title 18, United States Code, 
is amended by adding at the end the following:
    ``(35) Gun show.--The term `gun show' means any event--
            ``(A) at which 50 or more firearms are offered or exhibited 
        for sale, transfer, or exchange, if 1 or more of the firearms 
        has been shipped or transported in, or otherwise affects, 
        interstate or foreign commerce; and
            ``(B) at which--
                    ``(i) not less than 20 percent of the exhibitors 
                are firearm exhibitors;
                    ``(ii) there are not less than 10 firearm 
                exhibitors; or
                    ``(iii) 50 or more firearms are offered for sale, 
                transfer, or exchange.
    ``(36) Gun show promoter.--The term `gun show promoter' means any 
person who organizes, plans, promotes, or operates a gun show.
    ``(37) Gun show vendor.--The term `gun show vendor' means any

or more firearms at a gun show, regardless of whether or not the person 
arranges with the gun show promoter for a fixed location from which to 
exhibit, sell, offer for sale, transfer, or exchange 1 or more 
firearms.''
    (c) Regulation of Firearms Transfers at Gun Shows.--
            (1) In general.--Chapter 44 of title 18, United States 
        Code, is amended by adding at the end the following:

        the vendor;
            ``(2) before commencement of the gun show, requires each

                Subtitle B--James Guelff Body Armor Act

SEC. 1541. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``James Guelff Body Armor Act of 
1999''.

SEC. 1542. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) nationally, police officers and ordinary citizens are 
        facing increased danger as criminals use more deadly weaponry, 
        body armor, and other sophisticated assault gear;
            (2) crime at the local level is exacerbated by the 
        interstate movement of body armor and other assault gear;
            (3) there is a traffic in body armor moving in or otherwise 
        affecting interstate commerce, and existing Federal controls 
        over such traffic do not adequately enable the States to 
        control this traffic within their own borders through the 
        exercise of their police power;
            (4) recent incidents, such as the murder of San Francisco 
        Police Officer James Guelff by an assailant wearing 2 layers of 
        body armor and a 1997 bank shoot out in north Hollywood, 
        California, between police and 2 heavily armed suspects 
        outfitted in body armor, demonstrate the serious threat to 
        community safety posed by criminals who wear body armor during 
        the commission of a violent crime;
            (5) of the approximately 1,200 officers killed in the line 
        of duty since 1980, more than 30 percent could have been saved 
        by body armor, and the risk of dying from gunfire is 14 times 
        higher for an officer without a bulletproof vest;
            (6) the Department of Justice has estimated that 25 percent 
        of State and local police are not issued body armor;
            (7) the Federal Government is well-equipped to grant local 
        police departments access to body armor that is no longer 
        needed by Federal agencies; and
            (8) Congress has the power, under the interstate commerce 
        clause and other provisions of the Constitution of the United 
        States, to enact legislation to regulate interstate commerce 
        that affects the integrity and safety of our communities.

SEC. 1543. DEFINITIONS.

    In this subtitle:

        supervise the prevention, detection, investigation, or 
        prosecution of any violation of criminal law.

SEC. 1544. AMENDMENT OF SENTENCING GUIDELINES WITH RESPECT TO BODY 
              ARMOR.

    (a) Sentencing Enhancement.--The United States Sentencing 
Commission shall amend the Federal sentencing guidelines to provide an 
appropriate sentencing enhancement, increasing the offense level not 
less than 2 levels, for any offense in which the defendant used body 
armor.
    (b) Applicability.--No amendment made to the Federal Sentencing 
Guidelines pursuant to this section shall apply if the Federal offense 
in which the body armor is used constitutes a violation of, attempted 
violation of, or conspiracy to violate the civil rights of any person 
by a law enforcement officer acting under color of the authority of 
such law enforcement officer.

SEC. 1545. PROHIBITION OF PURCHASE, USE, OR POSSESSION OF BODY ARMOR BY 
              VIOLENT FELONS.

        gunfire, regardless of whether the product is to be worn alone 
        or is sold as a complement to another product or garment.''.

                defendant's purchase, use, or possession of body armor 
                was necessary for the safe performance of lawful 
                business activity; and
                    ``(B) the use and possession by the defendant were 
                limited to the course of such performance.
            ``(2) Employer.--In this subsection, the term `employer' 
        means any other individual employed by the defendant's business 
        that supervises defendant's activity. If that defendant has no 
        supervisor, prior written certification is acceptable from any

        the following:

SEC. 1547. ADDITIONAL FINDINGS; PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) Officer Dale Claxton of the Cortez, Colorado, Police 
        Department was shot and killed by bullets that passed through 
        the windshield of his police car after he stopped a stolen 
        truck, and his life may have been saved if his police car had 
        been equipped with bullet resistant equipment;
            (2) the number of law enforcement officers who are killed 
        in the line of duty would significantly decrease if every law 
        enforcement officer in the United States had access to 
        additional bullet resistant equipment;
            (3) according to studies, between 1985 and 1994, 709 law 
        enforcement officers in the United States were feloniously 
        killed in the line of duty;
            (4) the Federal Bureau of Investigation estimates that the 
        risk of fatality to law enforcement officers while not wearing 
        bullet resistant equipment, such as an armor vest, is 14 times 
        higher than for officers wearing an armor vest;
            (5) according to studies, between 1985 and 1994, bullet-
        resistant materials helped save the lives of more than 2,000 
        law enforcement officers in the United States; and
            (6) the Executive Committee for Indian Country Law 
        Enforcement Improvements reports that violent crime in Indian 
        country has risen sharply despite a decrease in the national 
        crime rate, and has concluded that there is a ``public safety 
        crisis in Indian country''.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this chapter is to save lives of law 
enforcement officers by helping State, local, and tribal law 
enforcement agencies provide officers with bullet resistant equipment 
and video cameras.

SEC. 1561. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Internet Firearms and 
Explosives Advertising Act of 1999''.

SEC. 1562. FINDINGS; PURPOSE.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) Citizens have an individual right, under the Second 
        Amendment to the United States Constitution, to keep and bear 
        arms. The Gun Control Act of 1968 and the Firearms Owners 
        Protection Act of 1986 specifically state that it is not the 
        intent of Congress to frustrate the free exercise of that right 
        in enacting Federal legislation. The free exercise of that 
        right includes law abiding firearms owners buying, selling, 
        trading, and collecting guns in accordance with Federal, State, 
        and local laws for whatever lawful use they deem desirable.
            (2) The Internet is a powerful information medium, which 
        has and continues to be an excellent tool to educate citizens 
        on the training, education and safety programs available to use 
        firearms safely and responsibly. It has, and should continue to 
        develop, as a 21st century tool for ``e-commerce'' and 
        marketing many products, including firearms and sporting goods. 
        Many web sites related to these topics are sponsored in large 
        part by the sporting firearms and hunting community.
            (3) It is the intent of Congress that this legislation be 
        applied where the Internet is being exploited to violate the 
        applicable explosives and firearms laws of the United States.

SEC. 1563. PROHIBITIONS ON USES OF THE INTERNET.

    (a) In General.--Chapter 44 of title 18, United States Code, is 
amended by adding at the end the following:
``Sec. 931. Criminal firearms and explosives solicitations

    ``(2) The circumstance referred to in paragraph (1) is that--
            ``(A) such person knows or has reason to know that such

              Subtitle G--Partnerships for High-Risk Youth

SEC. 1571. SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Partnerships for High-Risk 
Youth Act''.

SEC. 1572. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) violent juvenile crime rates have been increasing in 
        United States schools, causing many high-profile deaths of 
        young, innocent school children;
            (2) in 1994, there were 2,700,000 arrests of persons under 
        age 18 (a third of whom were under age 15), up from 1,700,000 
        in 1991;
            (3) while crime is generally down in many urban and 
        suburban areas, crime committed by teenagers has spiked sharply 
        over the past few years;
            (4) there is no single solution, or panacea, to the problem 
        of rising juvenile crime;
            (5) there will soon be over 34,000,000 teenagers in the 
        United States, which is 26 percent higher than the number of 
        such teenagers in 1990 and the largest number of teenagers in 
        the United States to date;
            (6) in order to ensure the safety of youth in the United 
        States, the Nation should begin to explore innovative methods 
        of curbing the rise in violent crime in United States schools, 
        such as use of faith-based and grassroots initiatives; and
            (7)(A) a strong partnership among law enforcement, local 
        government, juvenile and family courts, schools, businesses, 
        charitable organizations, families, and the religious community 
        can create a community environment that supports the youth of 
        the Nation and reduces the occurrence of juvenile crime; and
            (B) the development of character and strong moral values 
        will--
                    (i) greatly decrease the likelihood that youth will 
                fall victim to the temptations of crime; and
                    (ii) improve the lives and future prospects of 
                high-risk youth and their communities.

SEC. 1573. PURPOSES.

    The purposes of this subtitle are as follows:
            (1) To establish a national demonstration project to

        programs carried out by institutions that can identify and 
        employ effective approaches for improving the lives and future 
        prospects of high-risk youth and their communities.
            (2) To document best practices for conducting successful 
        interventions for high-risk youth, based on the results of 
        local initiatives.
            (3) To produce lessons and data from the operating 
        experience from those local initiatives that will--
                    (A) provide information to improve policy in the 
                public and private sectors; and
                    (B) promote the operational effectiveness of other
