SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

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

SEC. 2. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

    (a) In view of --
        (1) North Korea's manifest determination to produce missiles, 
    nuclear weapons, and other weapons of mass destruction and to 
    proliferate missiles, in violation of international norms and 
    expectations; and
        (2) United Nations Security Council Resolution 1695, adopted on 
    July 15, 2006, which requires all Member States, in accordance with 
    their national legal authorities and consistent with international 
    law, to exercise vigilance and prevent--
            (A) missile and missile-related items, materials, goods, 
        and technology from being transferred to North Korea's missile 
        or weapons of mass destruction programs; and
            (B) the procurement of missiles or missile-related items, 
        materials, goods, and technology from North Korea, and the 
        transfer of any financial resources in relation to North 
        Korea's missile or weapons of mass destruction programs,
    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. 4. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION.

1701 note), as amended by this Act.
