                                 A BILL


 
          To promote nuclear nonproliferation in North Korea.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``North Korea Nonproliferation Act of 
2006''.

SEC. 2. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

    In view of North Korea's manifest determination to proliferate 
missiles, nuclear weapons, and other weapons of mass destruction in 
violation of international norms and expectations, it should be the 
policy of the United States to impose sanctions on persons who transfer 
such weapons, and goods and technology related to such weapons, to and 
from North Korea in the same manner as persons who transfer such items 
to and from Iran and Syria currently are sanctioned under United States 
law.

SEC. 3. AMENDMENTS TO IRAN AND SYRIA NONPROLIFERATION ACT.

    (a) Reporting Requirements.--Section 2 of the Iran and Syria 
Nonproliferation Act (Public Law 106-178; 50 U.S.C. 1701 note) is 
amended--
            (1) in the heading, by inserting ``, north korea,'' after

                            (ii) by inserting after ``Syria'' the 
                        following: ``, or on or after January 1, 2006, 
                        transferred to or acquired from North Korea''

SEC. 4. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION.

    Congress urges all governments concerned about the threat of 
proliferation involving North Korea to impose measures on persons 
involved in such proliferation that are similar to those imposed by the 
United States Government pursuant to the Iran, North Korea, and Syria 
Nonproliferation Act, as amended by this Act.
