SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Government of North Korea has repeatedly violated 
        its commitments to the complete, verifiable, irreversible 
        dismantlement of its nuclear weapons programs, and has 
        willfully violated multiple United Nations Security Council 
        resolutions calling for it to cease its development, testing, 
        and production of weapons of mass destruction.
            (2) North Korea poses a grave risk for the proliferation of 
        nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction.
            (3) The Government of North Korea has been implicated 
        repeatedly in money laundering and illicit activities, 
        including prohibited arms sales, narcotics trafficking, the 
        counterfeiting of United States currency, and the 
        counterfeiting of intellectual property of United States 
        persons.
            (4) The Government of North Korea has recently and 
        repeatedly sponsored acts of international terrorism, including 
        attempts to assassinate defectors and human rights activists; 
        repeated threats of violence against foreign persons, leaders, 
        newspapers, and cities; and the shipment of weapons to 
        Hezbollah and Hamas via Iran.
            (5) North Korea has unilaterally withdrawn from the 1953 
        Armistice Agreement that ended the Korean War, and committed 
        unprovoked acts of war against South Korea in 2010 by sinking 
        the warship Cheonan and killing 46 of her crew, and by shelling 
        Yeonpyeong Island, killing four civilians.
            (6) North Korea maintains a system of brutal political 
        prison camps that contain as many as 200,000 men, women, and 
        children, who live in atrocious living conditions with 
        insufficient food, clothing, and medical care, and under 
        constant fear of torture or arbitrary execution.
            (7) The Congress reaffirms the purposes established in the 
        North Korean Human Rights Act of 2004 (22 U.S.C. 7802).
            (8) North Korea has prioritized weapons programs and the 
        procurement of luxury goods, in defiance of United Nations 
        Security Council resolutions, and in gross disregard of the 
        needs of its people.
            (9) Persons, including financial institutions, who engage 
        in transactions with, or provide financial services to, the 
        Government of North Korea and its financial institutions 
        without establishing sufficient financial safeguards against 
        North Korea's use of these transactions to promote 
        proliferation, weapons trafficking, human rights violations, 
        illicit activity, and the purchase of luxury goods, aid and 
        abet North Korea's misuse of the international financial 
        system, and also violate the intent of relevant United Nations 
        Security Council resolutions.
            (10) The Government of North Korea's conduct poses an 
        imminent threat to the security of the United States and its 
        allies, to the global economy, to the safety of members of the 
        United States armed forces, to the integrity of the global 
        financial system, to the integrity of global nonproliferation 
        programs, and to the people of North Korea.
            (11) The Congress seeks, through this legislation, to use 
        nonmilitary means to address this emergency, to provide 
        diplomatic leverage to negotiate necessary changes in North 
        Korea's conduct, and to ease the suffering of the people of 
        North Korea.

     TITLE I--INVESTIGATIONS, PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES, AND PENALTIES

SEC. 101. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

    In order to achieve the peaceful disarmament of North Korea, 
Congress finds that it is necessary--
            (1) to encourage all responsible members of the 
        international community to fully and promptly implement United 
        Nations Security Council Resolution 2094;
            (2) to sanction the entities, officials, and financial 
        institutions that facilitate proliferation, illicit activities,

        abuses, cash smuggling, and censorship by the Government of 
        North Korea;
            (3) to authorize the President to sanction financial 
        institutions and jurisdictions that fail to exercise due 
        diligence to ensure that such financial institutions and 
        jurisdictions do not facilitate proliferation, arms 
        trafficking, kleptocracy, and imports of luxury goods by the 
        Government of North Korea; and
            (4) to deny the Government of North Korea access to the 
        funds it uses to obtain nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles,

        people.

sanction any of the activities described in section 104(a) and to 
coordinate and ensure the effective enforcement of the provisions of 
this Act.

        access to such messaging services for, any North Korean 
        financial institution designated under section 104(b) unless

        voluntary cessation of such specialized financial messaging

        person, foreign government, or financial institution, or to 
        impose a sanction or sanctions on the designated person, if the 
        President submits to the appropriate congressional committees a 
        written determination that the waiver meets the following 
        requirements:
                    (A) The waiver is vital to the economic or national 
                security interests of the United States.
                    (B) The waiver will advance the purposes set forth 
                in section 4 of the North Korea Human Rights Act of 
                2004 (22 U.S.C. 7801 et seq.).
                    (C) The waiver is for the benefit of a financial 
                institution that--
                            (i) has blocked all North Korean property 
                        deposited in such financial institution, 
                        pending an audit of the origin of such property 
                        and the implementation of safeguards to ensure 
                        that the property is not used to facilitate any 
                        of the activities described in section 104(a); 
                        and
                            (ii) is providing good-faith cooperation 
                        with the investigation of any of the activities 
                        described in section 104(a) or the enforcement 
                        of the provisions of this Act.
                    (D) The waiver is for the benefit of a person, 
                foreign government, or financial institution that is 
                providing good-faith cooperation with the investigation 
                of any of the activities described in section 104(a) 
                and the enforcement of this Act.
                    (E) The waiver is for the benefit of a person, 
                foreign government, or financial institution that 
                provides underwriting, financial, insurance, 
                reinsurance, reflagging, transportation, or financial 
                messaging services, and who has exercised due diligence 
                in establishing and enforcing official policies, 
                procedures, and controls to ensure that the person, 
                foreign government, or financial institution (as the 
                case may be) does not facilitate any of the activities 
                described in section 104(a).
                    (F) In the absence of the waiver, the imposition of 
                the sanction or sanctions would have a severe and 
                adverse humanitarian impact on the people of North 
                Korea and such impact substantially outweighs the 
                interest of the United States in enforcing the 
                provisions of this Act.
            (2) Government of north korea.--The President may waive, on

        the requirement under section 104(c) to designate the 
        Government of North Korea, or to impose a sanction or sanctions 
        on the Government of North Korea, if the President submits to 
        the appropriate congressional committees a written 
        determination that the waiver meets the requirements described 
        in paragraph (1)(F).
    (c) Removal of Sanctions.--The President may prescribe rules and 
regulations for the removal of sanctions on a person, foreign 
government, or financial institution that is designated under 
subsection (a), (b), or (d) of section 104 and the removal of 
designations of a person, foreign government, or financial institution 
with respect to such sanctions if the President determines that the 
designated person has verifiably ceased its participation in any of the 
activities described in section 104(a) and is cooperating with the 
investigation of such activities and carrying out this Act.
    (d) Financial Services for Humanitarian and Consular Activities.--
The President may promulgate regulations, rules, and polices as may be 
necessary to facilitate the provision of financial services by a 
foreign financial institution that is not controlled by the Government 
of North Korea in support of the activities subject to exclusion under 
this section.

SEC. 303. AUTHORITY OF STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO DIVEST FROM 
              COMPANIES THAT INVEST IN NORTH KOREA.

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the United 
States should support the decision of any State or local government 
that for moral, prudential, or reputational reasons divests from, or 
prohibits the investment of assets of such State or local government 
in, a person that engages in investment activities in North Korea, if 
North Korea is subject to economic sanctions imposed by the United 
States.
    (b) Authority To Divest.--Notwithstanding any other provision of 
law, a State or local government may adopt and enforce measures that 
meet the requirements of subsection (d) to divest the assets of such 
State or local government from, or prohibit investment of the assets of 
such State or local government in, any person that such State or local 
government determines, using credible information available to the 
public, engages in investment activities in North Korea described in 
subsection (c).
    (c) Investment Activities Described.--A person engages in 
investment activities in North Korea described in this subsection if 
the person--
            (1) has an investment of $10,000 or more in North Korea; or
            (2) is a financial institution that extends $10,000 or more 
        in credit to another person, for 45 days or more, if such 
        person will use such credit for investment in North Korea.
    (d) Requirements.--Any measure taken by a State or local government 
under subsection (b) shall meet the following requirements:
            (1) Notice.--The State or local government shall provide 
        written notice to each person with respect to which a measure 
        under this section is to be applied.
            (2) Timing.--The measure applied under this section shall 
        apply to a person not earlier than the date that is 90 days 
        after the date on which written notice is provided to such 
        person under paragraph (1).
            (3) Opportunity for hearing.--The State or local government 
        at issue shall provide an opportunity to comment in writing to 
        each person with respect to which a measure is to be applied 
        under this section. If such person demonstrates to such State 
        or local government that such person does not engage in 
        investment activities in North Korea described in subsection 
        (c), such measure shall not apply to such person.
            (4) Sense of congress on avoiding erroneous targeting.--It 
        is the sense of Congress that a State or local government 
        should not adopt a measure under subsection (b) with respect to

    It is the sense of Congress that a fiduciary of an employee benefit 
plan, as defined in section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income

or avoid investing plan assets in, any person the fiduciary determines

or duties imposed upon such fiduciary by subparagraph (A) or (B) of 
section 404(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 
1974 (29 U.S.C. 1104(a)(1)), if--
            (1) such fiduciary makes such determination using credible 
        information that is available to the public; and
            (2) such fiduciary prudently determines that the result of 
        such divestment or avoidance of investment would not be 
        expected to provide the employee benefit plan with--
                    (A) a lower rate of return than alternative 
                investments with commensurate degrees of risk; or

included in the first report required to be submitted to Congress after
