     sense of the congress concerning the murder of four american 
                       churchwomen in el salvador

    Sec. 582. (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings.
            (1) The December 2, 1980 brutal assault and murder of four 
        American churchwomen by members of the Salvadoran National 
        Guard was covered up and never fully investigated.
            (2) On July 22 and July 23, 1998, Salvadoran authorities 
        granted three of the National Guardsmen convicted of the crimes 
        early release from prison.
            (3) The United Nations Truth Commission for El Salvador 
        determined in 1993 that there was sufficient evidence that the 
        Guardsmen were acting on orders from their superiors.
            (4) In March 1998, four of the convicted Guardsmen 
        confessed that they acted after receiving orders from their 
        superiors.
            (5) Recently declassified documents from the State 
        Department show that United States Government officials were 
        aware of information suggesting the involvement of superior 
        officers in the murders.
            (6) United States officials granted permanent residence to 
        a former Salvadoran military official involved in the cover-up 
        of the murders, enabling him to remain in Florida.
            (7) Despite the fact that the murders occurred over 17 
        years ago, the families of the four victims continue to seek 
        the disclosure of information relevant to the murders.
    (b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) information relevant to the murders should be made 
        public to the fullest extent possible;
            (2) the Secretary of State and the Department of State are 
        to be commended for fully releasing information regarding the 
        murders to the victims' families and to the American public, in 
        prompt response to congressional requests;
            (3) the President should order all other Federal agencies 
        and departments that possess relevant information to make every 
        effort to declassify and release to the victims' families 
        relevant information as expeditiously as possible;
            (4) in making determinations concerning the 
        declassification and release of relevant information, the 
        Federal agencies and departments should presume in favor of 
        releasing, rather than of withholding, such information; and
            (5) the President should direct the Attorney General to 
        review the circumstances under which individuals involved in 
        either the murders or the cover-up of the murders obtained 
        residence in the United States, and the Attorney General should 
        submit a report to the Congress on the results of such review 
        not later than January 1, 2000.

purpose of implementation, or in preparation for implementation, of the

Japan, at the Third Conference of the Parties to the United States

            (A) Not later than February 15, 2000, the Secretary of 
        State shall submit a report to the appropriate congressional 
        committees indicating the amount of funds that the United 
        Nations Population Fund is budgeting for the year in which the 
        report is submitted for a country program in the People's 
        Republic of China.
            (B) If a report under subparagraph (A) indicates that the 
        United Nations Population Fund plans to spend funds for a 
        country program in the People's Republic of China in the year 
        covered by the report, then the amount of such funds that the 
        UNFPA plans to spend in the People's Republic of China shall be 
        deducted from the funds made available to the UNFPA after March 
        1 for obligation for the remainder of the fiscal year in which 
        the report is submitted.
