SEC. 323. PUBLIC-PRIVATE COMPETITION PILOT PROGRAM.

    (a) Establishment.--The Secretary of Defense shall establish a 
pilot program to examine the use of the public-private competition 
process of Office of Management and Budget Circular A-76, as defined by 
such Circular, and functions currently being performed by contractors 
that could be performed by civilian employees of the Department of 
Defense.
    (b) Process and Criteria.--
            (1) The process and criteria for competition under the 
        pilot program established in subsection (a) shall be consistent 
        with the criteria for conducting a similar competition for work 
        performed by the public sector.
            (2) The pilot program shall include not less than four 
        competitions.
    (c) Report.--The Secretary of Defense shall submit a report to 
Congress on the results of the competitions conducted under the pilot 
program and any potential benefit or detriment of expanding the pilot 
program.
    (d) Termination.--The pilot program established under this 
subsection shall terminate on the date that is three years after the 
date of the enactment of this Act.

SEC. 324. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON EQUITABLE LEGAL STANDING FOR CIVILIAN 
              EMPLOYEES.

    It is the sense of Congress that, in order to ensure that when 
public-private competitions are held, they are conducted as fairly, 
effectively, and efficiently as possible, competing parties, both 
Department of Defense civilian employees (or their representatives) and 
contractors (or their representatives), should receive comparable 
treatment throughout the competition regarding access to relevant 
information and legal standing to challenge the way a competition has 
been conducted at all appropriate forums.

SEC. 342. MILITARY OPERATIONS AND OVERFLIGHTS, UTAH TEST AND TRAINING 
              RANGE.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The testing and development of military weapons systems 
        and the training of military forces are critical to ensuring 
        the national security of the United States.
            (2) The Utah Test and Training Range in the State of Utah 
        is a unique and irreplaceable national asset at the core of the 
        test and training mission of the Department of Defense.
            (3) The Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area designated by 
        section 344, as well as several wilderness study areas, are 
        located near lands withdrawn for military use or are beneath 
        special use airspace critical to the support of military test 
        and training missions at the Utah Test and Training Range.
            (4) The Utah Test and Training Range and special use 
        airspace withdrawn for military uses create unique management 
        circumstances for the covered wilderness in this subtitle, and 
        it is not the intent of Congress that passage of this subtitle 
        shall be construed as establishing a precedent with respect to 
        any future national conservation area or wilderness 
        designation.
            (5) Continued access to the special use airspace and lands 
        that comprise the Utah Test and Training Range, under the terms 
        and conditions described in this section, is a national 
        security priority and is not incompatible with the protection 
        and proper management of the natural, environmental, cultural, 
        and other resources of such lands.
    (b) Overflights.--Nothing in this subtitle or the Wilderness Act 
shall preclude low-level overflights and operations of military 
aircraft, helicopters, missiles, or unmanned aerial vehicles over the 
covered wilderness, including military overflights and operations that 
can be seen or heard within the covered wilderness.
    (c) Special Use Airspace and Training Routes.--Nothing in this 
subtitle or the Wilderness Act shall preclude the designation of new 
units of special use airspace, the expansion of existing units of 
special use airspace, or the use or establishment of military training 
routes over the covered wilderness.
    (d) Communications and Tracking Systems.--Nothing in this subtitle 
shall prevent any required maintenance of existing communications, 
instrumentation, or electronic tracking systems (or infrastructure 
supporting such systems) or prevent the installation of new 
communication, instrumentation, or other equipment necessary for 
effective testing and training to meet military requirements in 
wilderness study areas located beneath special use airspace comprising 
the Utah Test and Training Range, including the Deep Creek, Fish 
Springs, Swasey Mountain, Howell Peak, Notch Peak, King Top, Wah Wah 
Mountain, and Conger Mountain units designated by the Department of 
Interior, so long as the Secretary of the Interior, after consultation 
with the Secretary of the Air Force, determines that the installation 
and maintenance of such systems, when considered both individually and 
collectively, comply with section 603 of the Federal Land Policy and 
Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1782).
    (e) Emergency Access and Response.--Nothing in this subtitle or the 
Wilderness Act shall preclude the continuation of the memorandum of 
understanding in existence as of the date of enactment of this Act 
between the Department of the Interior and the Department of the Air 
Force with respect to emergency access and response.
    (f) Prohibition on Ground Military Operations.--Except as provided 
in subsections (d) and (e), nothing in this section shall be construed 
to permit a military operation to be conducted on the ground in covered 
wilderness in the Utah Test and Training Range unless such ground 
operation is otherwise permissible under Federal law and consistent 
with the Wilderness Act.

therefore, as a component of the National Wilderness Preservation 
System to be known as the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area.
    (b) Withdrawal.--Subject to valid existing rights, the Federal 
lands in the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area are hereby withdrawn from 
all forms of entry, appropriation, or disposal under the public land 
laws, from location, entry, and patent under the United States mining 
laws, and from disposition under all laws pertaining to mineral and 
geothermal leasing, and mineral materials, and all amendments to such 
laws.
    (c) Map and Description.--
            (1) Transmittal.--As soon as practicable after the date of 
        the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Interior shall 
        transmit a map and legal description of the Cedar Mountain 
        Wilderness Area to the Committee on Resources of the House of 
        Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural 
        Resources of the Senate.
            (2) Legal effect.--The map and legal description shall have 
        the same force and effect as if included in this Act, except 
        that the Secretary of the Interior may correct clerical and 
        typographical errors in the map and legal description.
            (3) Availability.--The map and legal description shall be 
        on file and available for public inspection in the office of

        State of Utah.
    (d) Administration.--Subject to valid existing rights and this 
subtitle, the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area shall be administered by 
the Secretary of the Interior in accordance with the provisions of the 
Wilderness Act, except that any reference in such provisions to the 
effective date of the Wilderness Act (or any similar reference) shall 
be deemed to be a reference to the date of the enactment of this Act.
    (e) Land Acquisition.--Any lands or interest in lands within the 
boundaries of the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area acquired by the United 
States after the date of the enactment of this Act shall be added to 
and administered as part of the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area.
    (f) Fish and Wildlife Management.--As provided in section 4(d)(7) 
of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(7)), nothing in this subtitle 
shall be construed as affecting the jurisdiction of the State of Utah 
with respect to fish and wildlife on the Federal lands located in that 
State.
    (g) Grazing.--Within the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area, the 
grazing of livestock, where established before the date of the 
enactment of this Act, shall be permitted to continue subject to such 
reasonable regulations, policies, and practices as the Secretary of the 
Interior considers necessary, as long as such regulations, policies, 
and practices fully conform with and implement the intent of Congress 
regarding grazing in such areas, as such intent is expressed in the 
Wilderness Act, section 101(f) of Public Law 101-628 (104 Stat. 4473), 
and appendix A of the Report of the Committee on Interior and Insular 
Affairs to accompany H.R. 2570 of the 101st Congress (H. Rept. 101-
405).
    (h) Buffer Zones.--Congress does not intend for the designation of 
the Cedar Mountain Wilderness Area to lead to the creation of 
protective perimeters or buffer zones around the wilderness area. The 
fact that nonwilderness activities or uses can be seen or heard within 
the wilderness area shall not, of itself, preclude such activities or 
uses up to the boundary of the wilderness area.
    (i) Release From Wilderness Study Area Status.--The lands 
identified as the Browns Spring Cherrystem on the map entitled 
``Proposed Browns Spring Cherrystem'' and dated May 11, 2004, are 
released from their status as a wilderness study area, and shall no 
longer be subject to the requirements of section 603(c) of the Federal 
Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1782(c)) pertaining 
to the management of wilderness study areas in a manner that does not 
impair the suitability of those areas for preservation of wilderness.

subsection (a), the Secretary of the Interior shall--
            (1) consult with leaders of the Tribe and the Governor of 
        Utah; and
            (2) ensure that the land has ready access to State or

        Aboriginal or Indian title that exists before the date of the 
        enactment of this Act;
            (3) constitutes an express or implied reservation of water 
        or water right for any purpose with respect to the trust land; 
        or
            (4) affects any water right of the Tribe that exists before

    (a) Report Required.--The Secretary of Defense shall submit to 
Congress a report containing the results of a study evaluating the 
merits of allowing the Army and Air Force Exchange System to manage 
Army lodging. The study should consider at a minimum the following:
            (1) Whether current lodging agreements with the Army and 
        Air Force Exchange System to provide hospitality 
        telecommunication services would be impacted by privatization 
        and whether the proposed change will have an impact on funds 
        contributed to morale, welfare, and recreation accounts.
            (2) Whether allowing the Army and Air Force Exchange System 
        to participate as a partner in the management of Army lodging 
        would enhance the quality of lodging and improve access to such 
        lodging as a nonprofit organization versus a partnership with a 
        for-profit corporation.
            (3) Whether privatization of Army lodging will result in 
        significant cost increases to members of the Armed Forces or 
        other eligible patrons or the loss of such lodging if it is 
        determined that management of such lodging is not a profitable 
        marketing venture.
            (4) Whether there are certain benefits to having the Army 
        and Air Force Exchange System become the partner with the Army 
        that would not exist were the Army to partner with a private 
        sector entity.
    (b) Limitation Pending Submission of Report.--Until the Secretary 
of Defense submits the report required by subsection (a) to Congress, 
the Department of the Army may not solicit or consider any request for 
qualifications that would privatize Army lodging beyond the level of 
privatization identified for inclusion in Group A of the Privatization 
of Army Lodging Initiative.

        touch, either directly or through the clothing, the genitalia,

        dislocated bones, deep cuts, torn members of the body, serious 
        damage to internal organs, and other severe bodily injuries. It 
        does not include minor injuries such as a black eye or a bloody 
        nose. It is the same level of injury as in section 928 (article 
        128) of this chapter, and a lesser degree of injury than in 
        section 2246(4) of title 18.
            ``(4) Dangerous weapon or object.--The term `dangerous 
        weapon or object' means--

                grievous bodily harm; or
                    ``(C) any object fashioned or utilized in such a 
                manner as to lead the victim under the circumstances to 
                reasonably believe it to be capable of producing death

        under paragraph (3) of subsection (a) (rape), or under 
        subsection (e) (aggravated sexual contact), means a 
        communication or action that is of sufficient consequence to 
        cause a reasonable fear that non-compliance will result in the 
        victim or another person being subjected to death, grievous 
        bodily harm, or kidnapping.
            ``(7) Threatening or placing that other person in fear.--
                    ``(A) In general.--The term `threatening or placing 
                that other person in fear' under paragraph (1)(A) of 
                subsection (c) (aggravated sexual assault), or under 
                subsection (h) (abusive sexual contact), means a 
                communication or action that is of sufficient 
                consequence to cause a reasonable fear that non-
                compliance will result in the victim or another being 
                subjected to a lesser degree of harm than death, 
                grievous bodily harm, or kidnapping.

                                career of some person.
            ``(8) Bodily harm.--The term `bodily harm' means any 
        offensive touching of another, however slight.
            ``(9) Child.--The term `child' means any person who has not 
        attained the age of sixteen years.
            ``(10) Lewd act.--The term `lewd act' means--
                    ``(A) the intentional touching, not through the 
                clothing, of the genitalia of another person, with an 
                intent to abuse, humiliate, or degrade any person, or 
                to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person; 
                or
                    ``(B) intentionally causing another person to 
                touch, not through the clothing, the genitalia of any 
                person with an intent to abuse, humiliate or degrade 
                any person, or to arouse or gratify the sexual desire 
                of any person.
            ``(11) Indecent liberty.--The term `indecent liberty' means 
        indecent conduct, but physical contact is not required. It 
        includes one who with the requisite intent exposes one's 
        genitalia, anus, buttocks, or female areola or nipple to a 
        child. An indecent liberty may consist of communication of 
        indecent language as long as the communication is made in the 
        physical presence of the child. If words designed to excite 
        sexual desire are spoken to a child, or a child is exposed to 
        or involved in sexual conduct, it is an indecent liberty; the 
        child's consent is not relevant.
            ``(12) Indecent conduct.--The term `indecent conduct' means 
        that form of immorality relating to sexual impurity which is 
        grossly vulgar, obscene, and repugnant to common propriety, and 
        tends to excite sexual desire or deprave morals with respect to 
        sexual relations. Indecent conduct includes but is not limited 
        to observing, or making a videotape, photograph, motion 
        picture, print, negative, slide, or other mechanically, 
        electronically, or chemically reproduced visual material, 
        without another person's consent, and contrary to that other 
        person's reasonable expectation of privacy, of--
                    ``(A) that other person's genitalia, anus, or 
                buttocks, or (if that other person is female) that 
                person's areola or nipple; or
                    ``(B) that other person while that other person is 
                engaged in a sexual act, sodomy (under section 925 
                (article 125)), or sexual contact; and
            ``(13) Act of prostitution.--The term `act of prostitution' 
        means a sexual act, sexual contact, or lewd act for the purpose 
        of receiving money or other compensation.
            ``(14) Consent.--The term `consent' means words or overt 
        acts indicating a freely given agreement to the sexual conduct 
        at issue by a competent person. An expression of lack of 
        consent through words or conduct means there is no consent. 
        Lack of verbal or physical resistance or submission resulting 
        from the accused's use of force, threat of force, or placing 
        another person in fear does not constitute consent. A current 
        or previous dating relationship by itself or the manner of 
        dress of the person involved with the accused in the sexual 
        conduct at issue shall not constitute consent. A person cannot 
        consent to sexual activity if--
                    ``(A) under sixteen years of age; or
                    ``(B) substantially incapable of--
                            ``(i) appraising the nature of the sexual 
                        conduct at issue due to--
                                    ``(I) mental impairment or 
                                unconsciousness resulting from 
                                consumption of alcohol, drugs, a 
                                similar substance, or otherwise; or
                                    ``(II) mental disease or defect 
                                which renders the person unable to 
                                understand the nature of the sexual 
                                conduct at issue; or
                            ``(ii) physically declining participation 
                        in the sexual conduct at issue; or
                            ``(iii) physically communicating 
                        unwillingness to engage in the sexual conduct 
                        at issue.
            ``(15) Mistake of fact as to consent.--The term `mistake of 
        fact as to consent' means the accused held, as a result of 
        ignorance or mistake, an incorrect belief that the other person 
        engaging in the sexual conduct consented. The ignorance or 
        mistake must have existed in the mind of the accused and must 
        have been reasonable under all the circumstances. To be 
        reasonable the ignorance or mistake must have been based on 
        information, or lack of it, which would indicate to a 
        reasonable person that the other person consented. 
        Additionally, the ignorance or mistake cannot be based on the 
        negligent failure to discover the true facts. Negligence is the 
        absence of due care. Due care is what a reasonably careful 
        person would do under the same or similar circumstances. The 
        accused's state of intoxication, if any, at the time of the 
        offense is not relevant to mistake of fact. A mistaken belief 
        that the other person consented must be that which a reasonably 
        careful, ordinary, prudent, sober adult would have had under 
        the circumstances at the time of the offense.
            ``(16) Affirmative defense.--The term `affirmative defense' 
        means any special defense which, although not denying that the 
        accused committed the objective acts constituting the offense 
        charged, denies, wholly, or partially, criminal responsibility 
        for those acts. The accused has the burden of proving the 
        affirmative defense by a preponderance of evidence. After the 
        defense meets this burden, the prosecution shall have the 
        burden of proving beyond a reasonable doubt that the 
        affirmative defense did not exist.''.
            (2) Clerical amendment.--The item relating to section 920 
        (article 120) in the table of sections at the beginning of 
        subchapter X of chapter 47 of title 10, United States Code (the 
        Uniform Code of Military Justice), is amended to read as 
        follows:

``920. Art. 120. Rape, sexual assault, and other sexual misconduct.''.

provides pursuant to section 856 of title 10, United States Code

which a court-martial may direct for an offense under section 920 of

            (4) Subsections (f) and (g).--For an offense under 
        subsection (f) (aggravated sexual abuse of a child) or (g) 
        (aggravated sexual contact with a child), dishonorable 
        discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and 
        confinement for 15 years.
            (5) Subsections (h) through (j).--For an offense under 
        subsection (h) (abusive sexual contact), (i) (abusive sexual 
        contact with a child), or (j) (indecent liberty with a child), 
        dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, 
        and confinement for 7 years.
            (6) Subsections (k) and (l).--For an offense under

        allowances, and confinement for 1 year.
    (c) Effective Date.--The amendments made by subsection (a) shall 
take effect 1 year after the date of the enactment of this Act and 
section 920 of title 10, United States Code (article 120 of the Uniform 
Code of Military Justice), as amended by subsection (a), shall apply 
with respect to offenses committed on or after that effective date.
    (d) Conforming Amendment.--Section 918 of title 10, United States 
Code (article 118 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice), is amended 
in paragraph (4) by striking ``rape,'' and inserting ``rape, rape of a 
child, aggravated sexual assault, aggravated sexual assault of a child, 
aggravated sexual contact, aggravated sexual abuse of a child, 
aggravated sexual contact with a child,''.

        Education) to provide the students in the schools of the local 
        educational agency with a level of education that is equivalent 
        to the minimum level of education available in the schools of 
        the other local educational agencies in the same State.
            (2) Eligible local educational agencies.--A local 
        educational agency is eligible for assistance under this

        to the nearest whole percent) of the students in average daily 
        attendance in the schools of the local educational agency 
        during the preceding school year were military dependent 
        students counted under section 8003(a)(1) of the Elementary and 
        Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 7703(a)(1)).

        described in paragraph (2) if, during the period between the 
        end of the school year preceding the fiscal year for which the 
        assistance is authorized and the beginning of the school year 
        immediately preceding that school year, the local educational 
        agency had (as determined by the Secretary of Defense in 
        consultation with the Secretary of Education) an overall 
        increase or reduction of--
                    (A) not less than five percent in the average daily 
                attendance of military dependent students in the

                dependent students in schools of the local educational

                military installations under the base closure process

SEC. 580. SENSE OF CONGRESS THAT COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES GIVE EQUAL 
              ACCESS TO MILITARY RECRUITERS AND ROTC IN ACCORDANCE WITH 
              THE SOLOMON AMENDMENT AND REQUIREMENT FOR REPORT TO 
              CONGRESS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program is 
        the most common means for undergraduates to become United 
        States military officers, producing 60 percent of all officers 
        in the Armed Forces and 75 percent of Army officers.
            (2) The ROTC program is officially banned from many leading 
        universities and, although students at those institutions can 
        participate in ROTC programs at other colleges, they often have 
        to travel significant distances to do so.
            (3) The United States is engaged in a global war on 
        terrorism, and it is thus more important than ever for the 
        Armed Forces to recruit high quality and well-qualified 
        personnel.
            (4) Recruiting on university campuses is one of the primary 
        means of obtaining new, highly qualified personnel for the 
        Armed Forces and is an integral, effective, and necessary part 
        of overall military recruitment.
            (5) In 1996, Congress enacted a provision of law that has 
        become known as the ``Solomon Amendment'' that provides for the 
        Secretary of Defense to deny Federal funding to colleges and 
        universities if they prohibit or prevent ROTC or military 
        recruitment on campus.
            (6) A group of university law schools have challenged the 
        constitutionality of the Solomon Amendment, and the Supreme 
        Court has agreed to hear the case in the term beginning in 
        October 2005.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) any college or university that discriminates against 
        ROTC programs or military recruiters should be denied certain 
        Federal taxpayer support, especially funding for many military 
        and defense programs; and
            (2) universities and colleges that receive Federal funds 
        should provide military recruiters access to college campuses 
        and to college students equal in quality and scope to that 
        provided all other employers.
    (c) Report Required.--Not later than one year after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to 
Congress a report on the colleges and universities that are denying 
equal access to military recruiters and ROTC programs.

SEC. 676. SPECIAL COMPENSATION FOR RESERVE COMPONENT MEMBERS WHO ARE 
              ALSO TOBACCO FARMERS ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY TERMS OF 
              TOBACCO QUOTA BUYOUT.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The dispute resolution mechanism provided in section 
        624(b) of the Fair and Equitable Tobacco Reform Act of 2004 (7 
        U.S.C. 518c), which was intended to help tobacco producers in 
        hardship circumstances, is not likely to provide relief to 
        tobacco producers who are also members of the reserve 
        components of the Armed Forces and were called or ordered to 
        active duty for extended deployment.
            (2) The special compensation provided under this section 
        addresses a unique situation and does not set a precedent for 
        other persons seeking exceptions to the eligibility 
        requirements for payments under such Act.
    (b) Availability of Compensation.--Subject to subsection (c), the 
Secretary of Defense shall make a payment under this section to any 
member of a reserve component whose eligibility for a payment under 
section 623 of the Fair and Equitable Tobacco Reform Act of 2004 (7 
U.S.C. 518b) as a producer of quota tobacco was adversely affected, or 
whose payment amount under such section was determined using a variable 
payment rate specified in subparagraph (B) or (C) of subsection (d)(3) 
of such section, because the member was serving on active duty under a 
call or order to active duty for a period of more than 30 days during 
any of the tobacco marketing years specified in subparagraph (A) of 
such subsection.
    (c) Restriction to Members Who Are Long-Time Tobacco Growers.--To 
be eligible for a payment under this section, a member described in 
subsection (b) must have been a producer of quota tobacco (as defined 
in section 621 of the Fair and Equitable Tobacco Reform Act of 2004 (7 
U.S.C. 518a)) during at least two of the three tobacco marketing years 
before the 2002 marketing year.
    (d) Amount of Payment.--The amount of the payment required under 
this section for a member shall be equal to 70 percent of the 
difference between--
            (1) the amount the member will receive under section 623 of 
        the Fair and Equitable Tobacco Reform Act of 2004; and
            (2) the amount that the member would have likely received 
        under such section had the member remained a full-time producer 
        of quota tobacco and not been called or ordered to active duty.
    (e) Calculation of Payment Amount.--The Secretary of Defense shall 
make the calculation required by subsection (c) in consultation with 
the Secretary of Agriculture.

SEC. 677. COMPTROLLER GENERAL REPORT REGARDING COMPENSATION AND 
              BENEFITS FOR RESERVE COMPONENT MEMBERS.

    (a) Report Required.--The Comptroller General shall prepare a 
report reviewing the terms and elements of reserve compensation, 
benefit, and personnel support programs, including the retirement 
system.
    (b) Elements of Report.--The report required by subsection (a) 
shall address at a minimum the following:
            (1) The effectiveness and adequacy of compensation and 
        benefit programs, income protection for members of the reserve 
        components called to active duty, family support programs, 
        health care access, and other programs of interest to such 
        members.
            (2) The need for these programs to be improved, including 
        such recommendations as the Comptroller General considers 
        appropriate for achieving needed improvements.
            (3) A comparison of these programs to similar programs 
        conducted for the benefit of regular forces to determine if the 
        reserve programs are fair and equitable given the increased 
        contributions by reserve component forces to the defense of the 
        United States.
            (4) An examination of the differences in benefits and 
        protections provided to reservists who are called to serve 
        under different authorities, including title 10, United States 
        Code, title 32, United States Code, and State active duty.
            (5) The need for benefits and protections to be made 
        consistent regardless of the authority under which members of 
        the reserve components are called to serve, including such 
        recommendations as the Comptroller General considers 
        appropriate for achieving that objective.
    (c) Relationship to Other Studies and Reports.--To the extent that 
an issue required to be addressed by subsection (b) is also the subject 
of other studies or reports being prepared by the Comptroller General, 
the Comptroller General may drop the issue from this report to avoid 
duplication of effort.
    (d) Submission of Report.--The Comptroller General shall submit the 
report to the congressional defense committees not later than March 31, 
2006.

SEC. 678. REPORT ON SPACE-AVAILABLE TRAVEL FOR CERTAIN DISABLED 
              VETERANS.

    Not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this 
Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to Congress a report on the 
feasibility of providing transportation on Department of Defense 
aircraft on a space-available basis for any veteran with a service-
connected disability rating of 50 percent or higher. The Secretary of 
Defense shall prepare the report in consultation with the Secretary of 
Veterans Affairs.

                Subtitle D--Intelligence-Related Matters

SEC. 931. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE STRATEGY FOR OPEN-SOURCE INTELLIGENCE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Open-source intelligence (OSINT) is intelligence that 
        is produced from publicly available information collected, 
        exploited, and disseminated in a timely manner to an 
        appropriate audience for the purpose of addressing a specific 
        intelligence requirement.
            (2) With the Information Revolution, the amount, 
        significance, and accessibility of open-source information has 
        exploded, but the Intelligence Community has not expanded its 
        exploitation efforts and systems to produce open-source 
        intelligence.
            (3) The production of open-source intelligence is a 
        valuable intelligence discipline that must be integrated in the 
        intelligence cycle to ensure that United States policymakers 
        are fully and completely informed.
            (4) The dissemination and use of validated open-source 
        intelligence inherently enables information sharing as it is 
        produced without the use of sensitive sources and methods. 
        Open-source intelligence products can be shared with the 
        American public and foreign allies because of its unclassified 
        nature.
            (5) The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the 
        United States, in its Final Report released on July 22, 2004, 
        identified shortfalls in the ability of the United States to 
        employ all-source intelligence, a large component of which is 
        open-source intelligence.
            (6) The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 
        2004 (Public Law 108-458) advocates for coordination of the 
        collection, analysis, production, and dissemination of open-
        source intelligence.
            (7) The Commission on the Intelligence Capabilities of the 
        United States Regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction, in its 
        report to the President released on March 31, 2005, found 
        ``that the need for exploiting open-source material is greater 
        now than ever before,'' but that ``the Intelligence Community's 
        open source programs have not expanded commensurate with either 
        the increase in available information or with the growing 
        importance of open source data to today's problems''.
    (b) Strategy for Open-Source Intelligence.--
            (1) Development of strategy.--The Secretary of Defense 
        shall develop a strategy, to be known as the ``Strategy for 
        Open-Source Intelligence'', to be incorporated within the 
        larger military intelligence strategy, for the purpose of 
        integrating open-source intelligence into the military 
        intelligence cycle.
            (2) Submission.--The Secretary shall submit the Strategy 
        for Open-Source Intelligence to Congress not later than January 
        31, 2006.
            (3) Matters to be included.--The Strategy for Open-Source 
        Intelligence shall include the following:
                    (A) An investment strategy for the development of a 
                robust open-source intelligence capability, with 
                particular emphasis on exploitation and dissemination.
                    (B) A description of how management of open-source 
                intelligence collection is currently performed at the 
                Department level and how it can be improved in the 
                future.
                    (C) A description of the tools, systems, centers, 
                personnel, and procedures that will be used to perform 
                open-source intelligence tasking, collection, 
                exploitation, and dissemination.
                    (D) A description of proven tradecraft for 
                effective open-source intelligence exploitation, to 
                include consideration of operational security.
                    (E) A detailed description on how open-source 
                intelligence will be fused with all other intelligence 
                sources across the Department of Defense.
                    (F) A description of open-source intelligence 
                training plan and guidance for Department of Defense 
                and service intelligence personnel.
                    (G) A plan to incorporate the open-source 
                intelligence oversight function into the Office of the 
                Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence and into 
                service intelligence organizations.
                    (H) A plan to incorporate and identify an open-
                source intelligence specialty into Department and 
                service personnel systems.
                    (I) A plan to use reserve component intelligence 
                personnel to augment and support the open-source 
                intelligence mission.
                    (J) A plan for the use of the Open-Source 
                Information System for the purpose of exploitation and 
                dissemination.

            (3) the Iran Nonproliferation Act of 2000 should not be

        that are intended to serve lesser policy priorities.

enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense and Chairman of the

        Command.
            (4) An assessment of Iran's ability to deliver and detonate

SEC. 1305. REPORT ON ELIMINATION OF IMPEDIMENTS TO NUCLEAR THREAT-
              REDUCTION AND NONPROLIFERATION PROGRAMS IN THE RUSSIAN 
              FEDERATION.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) despite the importance of programs and activities to 
        assist in securing nuclear weapons and fissile materials in the 
        states of the former Soviet Union, the effective conduct of 
        some programs and activities in the Russian Federation is 
        impeded by numerous legal and administrative disagreements 
        regarding a variety of issues, including issues relating to 
        access to sites, liability, and taxation; and
            (2) it has been possible to resolve disagreements of that 
        nature in other republics of the former Soviet Union through 
        committed and high-level discussions between the United States 
        and those republics.
    (b) Report.--Not later than November 1, 2006, the President shall 
submit to Congress a report on impediments in the states of the former 
Soviet Union to the effective conduct of programs and activities of the 
United States relating to securing nuclear weapons and fissile 
materials in those states. The report shall--
            (1) identify the impediments to the rapid, efficient, and 
        effective conduct of programs and activities of the Department 
        of Defense, the Department of State, and the Department of 
        Energy to assist in securing such materials in those states, 
        including issues relating to access to sites, liability, and 
        taxation; and
            (2) describe the plans of the United States to overcome or 
        ameliorate such impediments, including an identification and 
        discussion of new models and approaches that might be used to 
        develop new relationships with entities in Russia capable of 
        assisting in removing or ameliorating those impediments, and 
        any congressional action that may be necessary for that 
        purpose.

as the Reliable Replacement Warhead program, to develop reliable 
replacement components that are producible and certifiable for the 
existing nuclear weapons stockpile.
    ``(b) Objectives.--The objectives of the Reliable Replacement 
Warhead program shall be--
            ``(1) to increase the reliability, safety, and security of 
        the United States nuclear weapons stockpile;
            ``(2) to further reduce the likelihood of the resumption of 
        nuclear testing;
            ``(3) to remain consistent with basic design parameters by 
        using, to the extent practicable, components that are well 
        understood or are certifiable without the need to resume 
        underground nuclear testing;
            ``(4) to ensure that the United States develops a nuclear 
        weapons infrastructure that can respond to unforeseen problems, 
        to include the ability to produce replacement warheads that are 
        safer to manufacture, more cost-effective to produce, and less 
        costly to maintain than existing warheads;
            ``(5) to achieve reductions in the future size of the 
        nuclear weapons stockpile based on increased reliability of the 
        reliable replacement warheads;
            ``(6) to use the design, certification, and production 
        expertise resident in the nuclear complex to develop reliable 
        replacement components to fulfill current mission requirements 
        of the existing stockpile; and
            ``(7) to serve as a complement to, and potentially a more 
        cost-effective and reliable long-term replacement for, the 
        current Stockpile Life Extension Programs.''.
    (b) Report.--Not later than March 1, 2007, the Nuclear Weapons 
Council shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report 
on the feasibility and implementation of the Reliable Replacement 
Warhead program required by section 4214 of the Atomic Energy Defense 
Act (as added by subsection (a)). The report shall--
            (1) identify existing warheads recommended for replacement 
        by 2035 with an assessment of the weapon performance and safety 
        characteristics of the replacement warheads;
            (2) discuss the relationship of the Reliable Replacement 
        Warhead program within the Stockpile Stewardship Program and 
        its impact on the current Stockpile Life Extension Programs;
            (3) provide an assessment of the extent to which a 
        successful Reliable Replacement Warhead program could lead to 
        reductions in the nuclear weapons stockpile;
            (4) discuss the criteria by which replacement warheads 
        under the Reliable Replacement Warhead program will be designed 
        to maximize the likelihood of not requiring nuclear testing, as 
        well as the circumstances that could lead to a resumption of 
        testing;
            (5) provide a description of the infrastructure, including 
        pit production capabilities, required to support the Reliable 
        Replacement Warhead program; and
            (6) provide a detailed summary of how the funds made 
        available pursuant to the authorizations of appropriations in 
        this Act, and any funds made available in prior years, will be 
        used.
    (c) Interim Report.--Not later than March 1, 2006, the Nuclear 
Weapons Council shall submit to the congressional defense committees an 
interim report on the matters required to be covered by the report 
under subsection (b).

SEC. 3112. REPORT ON ASSISTANCE FOR A COMPREHENSIVE INVENTORY OF 
              RUSSIAN NONSTRATEGIC NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) there is an insufficient accounting for, and 
        insufficient security of, the nonstrategic nuclear weapons of 
        the Russian Federation; and
            (2) because of the dangers posed by that insufficient 
        accounting and security, it is in the national security 
        interest of the United States to assist the Russian Federation 
        in the conduct of a comprehensive inventory of its nonstrategic 
        nuclear weapons.
    (b) Report.--
            (1) Report required.--Not later than November 1, 2005, the 
        Secretary of Energy shall submit to Congress a report 
        containing--
                    (A) the Secretary's evaluation of past and current 
                efforts by the United States to encourage or facilitate 
                a proper accounting for and securing of the 
                nonstrategic nuclear weapons of the Russian Federation; 
                and
                    (B) the Secretary's recommendations regarding the 
                actions by the United States that are most likely to 
                lead to progress in improving the accounting for, and 
                securing of, those weapons.
            (2) Consultation with secretary of defense.--The report 
        under paragraph (1) shall be prepared in consultation with the 
        Secretary of Defense.
            (3) Classification of report.--The report under paragraph
