disorders from traumatic events experienced during combat.
(2) It has also been shown that emotional distress and
trauma from life events can be exacerbated by traumatic events
experienced during combat.
(3) Members of the Armed Forces who struggle with post-
traumatic stress and other behavioral health disorders are
often unable to provide emotional support to spouses and
children, causing emotional distress and the risk of behavioral
health disorders among the dependents of the members.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Department of Defense should continue to support
members of the Armed Forces and their families by providing
family counseling and individual counseling services that
reduce the symptoms of post-traumatic stress and other
behavioral health disorders and empowers members to be
emotionally available to their spouses and children;
(2) such services should be readily available at branches
of the Department and military bases;
(3) the Department should rely on industry standards
established by the medical community when developing standards
for their own practice of family and individual counseling; and
(4) the Department should conduct a five-year study of the
progress of members of the Armed Forces that are treated for
mental health disorders, including with respect to--
(A) difficulty keeping up with treatment;
(B) familial status before and after treatment; and
(C) access to mental health counseling at
Department facilities and military installations.

TITLE VIII--ACQUISITION POLICY, ACQUISITION MANAGEMENT, AND RELATED
MATTERS
SEC. 800. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE DESIRED TENETS OF THE DEFENSE
ACQUISITION SYSTEM.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Committee on Armed Services of the House of
Representatives held a series of hearings in 2013, 2014, and
2015 gathering testimony from key acquisition leaders and
experts. It is clear that the acquisition reform efforts of the
last 50 years continue to founder because they fail to address
the motivational and environmental factors in which they must
be implemented. The acquisition system, though frustrating to
all, is in one sense in equilibrium. The acquisition system
provides enough benefits to proponents and opponents to
continue, with only minor changes, despite its shortcomings.
(2) The Armed Forces continue to pursue too many defense
acquisitions, chasing too few dollars. Consequently, there
remains a vast difference between the budgeting plans of the
Department and the reality of the cost of its systems or the
services it acquires.
(3) To keep programs alive, the Department develops and
Congress accepts fragile acquisition strategies that downplay
technical issues and assume only successful outcomes from high-
risk efforts. As a result, the Department often ends up with
too few weapons, with performance that falls short, that are
difficult and costly to maintain, delivered late at too high a
cost. Congressional and Department of Defense leadership have
limited insight into the services acquired or what services
need to be acquired in the future. Furthermore, the
conventional acquisition process is not agile enough for
today's demands. Finally, the Department of Defense continues
to struggle with financial management and auditability,
affecting its ability to control costs, ensure basic
accountability, anticipate future costs and claims on the
budget, and measure performance.
(4) Too often today, all stakeholders in the Department of
Defense, Congress, and industry, accept that--
(A) for the acquisition process, success is defined
as maximizing technical performance or protecting
organizational interests, without regard to funding
disruptions and delivery delays of needed capability or
services to the warfighter; and
(B) the acquisition process is--
(i) reactive, meaning issues are addressed
late and at great cost only after problems are
realized;
(ii) plodding, meaning the bureaucratic
processes are sclerotic and cumbersome;
(iii) opaque, meaning that limiting
information is necessary to protect programs;
and
(iv) traditional, meaning that customary
approaches and suppliers are preferred over
perceived risk of new or unique concepts and
vendors.
(5) Today, the United States is at a cross-roads, and if
changes to the acquisition system are not made soon, the trend
of fewer and more costly systems and services that fall short
of the needs of the Armed Forces will continue. Congress, the
Department of Defense, and industry all have a stake in making
positive changes. Each plays a role in contributing to the
current system. Each gains benefits from that system, but each
is frustrated by it as well.
(6) The acquisition improvement effort of the Committee on
Armed Services of the House of Representatives proposes a
different approach from previous efforts by seeking to improve
the environment (i.e., statutes, regulations, processes, and
culture) driving acquisition decisions in the Department of
Defense, industry, and Congress. The Committee has solicited
input from industry and the Department of Defense, as well as
others in Congress, and will continue to do so. The Committee
recognizes that there are no ``silver bullets'' that can
immediately fix the current acquisition system in a holistic
and long-standing manner. Therefore, the reform effort will be
an ongoing and iterative process that will result in
legislation not only this year, but will be embedded in the
Committee's annual and regular work.
(b) Sense of Congress on the Tenets of an Improved Acquisition
System.--It is the sense of Congress that all stakeholders in the
acquisition system--the Department of Defense, Congress, and industry--
should be governed by the following tenets:
(1) Success.--Success in the acquisition system means the
timely delivery of affordable and effective military equipment
and services.
(2) Proactive.--The acquisition system should be proactive,
meaning--
(A) the system should recognize that development
and acquisition problems can occur; and
(B) officials at all levels should be empowered to
solve problems and reduce risks by surfacing issues
early and honestly and taking action to resolve them.
(3) Agile.--The acquisition system should be agile, meaning
that needed program adjustments to both respond to emerging
threats and the rapid pace of technological change and to
address development or production issues should be proposed and
adjudicated quickly.
(4) Transparent.--The acquisition system should be
transparent, meaning that--
(A) all decision makers should be given useful,
relevant, credible, and reliable information when
making commitments;
(B) Government and industry communication should be
clear and open; and
(C) the Department of Defense should produce
auditable financial management statements.
(5) Innovative.--The acquisition system should be
innovative, meaning that barriers should be removed that
preclude companies from undertaking defense business or
officials from proposing new approaches.

Subtitle C--Weapon Systems Acquisition and Related Matters
SEC. 821. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE DESIRED CHARACTERISTICS FOR THE
WEAPON SYSTEMS ACQUISITION SYSTEM.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Current situation.--Despite significant and repeated
attempts at acquisition reform, the Department of Defense still
experiences case after case of expensive weapon system
acquisition failures. The Department of Defense has a track
record of too many cancellations, schedule slippages, cost
over-runs, and failures to deliver timely solutions to the
requirements of the Armed Forces. This situation is
unacceptable. For example, according to the Final Report of the
2010 Army Acquisition Review, between 1996 and 2010, the Army
expended approximately $1 billion to $3 billion annually on two
dozen programs that were eventually cancelled. No military
service and no type of weapon acquisition has been immune.
(2) Problems in all phases of acquisitions.--
(A) Despite detailed weapon acquisition processes
and procedures, there is only limited discipline in
starting programs. Many programs begin without a solid
foundation. They have too many requirements deemed
``critical'', which are driven by too many
organizations and individuals. Approved requirements
are often set with only a limited understanding of the
technical feasibility of achieving them. The resulting
compromises of good program management and engineering
judgment that allow the programs to proceed are the
``spackle'' of the acquisition system that covers up
the risks and enables the system to operate.
(B) As these weapon systems proceed into
engineering and manufacturing development, they often
encounter development problems leading to cost growth,
schedule delay, and performance reductions. Industry
and Government officials frequently respond by taking
additional development risks to resolve basic
performance issues by reducing the time to analyze and
assess development results, overlapping key development
efforts, and reducing testing. The Department of
Defense and Congress disrupt the planned funding of
stable programs to find resources for troubled programs
or to fund across-the-board spending cuts. Funding
instability is the inevitable price that programs pay
for survival because funding disruptions actually keep
more programs alive.
(C) Finally, these weapons are often rushed into
production only to encounter production problems, and
are fielded with many unknowns or deficiencies leading
to significantly reduced quantities and force structure
reductions. The warfighter faces the challenge of
operating weapons with poor reliability, high
maintenance demands, reduced performance, and many
capability shortfalls.
(b) Sense of Congress.--
(1) In general.--It is the sense of Congress that, in
accordance with the tenets described in section 800, to improve
weapon system acquisitions, the Department of Defense,
Congress, and industry should develop an acquisition system
characterized by highly disciplined program initiation coupled
with agile program execution and balanced oversight, as
described in paragraphs (2), (3), and (4).
(2) Highly disciplined program initiation.--An acquisition
system characterized by highly disciplined program initiation
means that programs do not begin engineering development until
firm requirements are matched to a flexible acquisition
strategy structured to develop militarily useful capability
that can be delivered in a relevant period of time with
available technologies, funding, and management capacity. Such
a highly disciplined program initiation includes--
(A) a workforce with smart requirements setters and
expert buyers, with the knowledge, skills, and
experience to successfully plan for and execute highly
complex acquisitions;
(B) requirements that are well-defined, technically
feasible, and affordable;
(C) acquisition strategies that are designed to
minimize time to market of militarily useful
capability, with the program concerned being structured
so that--
(i) lower-risk, technically mature
capabilities are matched to delivering
capability to the warfighter in the near term,
while remaining requirements are aligned and
resources are programmed to support integration
into later increments to meet the requirements
of the Armed Forces;
(ii) capabilities are approved for an
increment only when their developmental risks
have been appropriately reduced; and
(iii) increments are planned to complete
engineering and manufacturing development in a
reasonable period of time;
(D) a science and technology development enterprise
that is responsive to the acquisition process before
engineering and manufacturing development begins, and
sufficiently resourced to reduce risks and enable
programs to make smart decisions without losing
critical funds; and
(E) redtape reduction in order to free up program
and Department officials to focus on their mission of
defining an executable program and understanding and
addressing risks.
(3) Agile program execution.--An acquisition system
characterized by agile program execution means a system in
which acquisition speed and flexibility to make trade-offs are
balanced with the need to achieve desired technical
performance. Such agile program execution includes--
(A) program managers and program officials who are
expert buyers and negotiators who anticipate problems,
negotiate solutions, and are empowered to manage;
(B) a preference for fixed price contracting where
appropriate for the size and complexity of the work and
for the nature and scope of the capabilities being
developed;
(C) program managers who avoid increasing program
risk by resisting the addition of new requirements or
the reduction of developmental activities;
(D) empowering program managers and senior
decisionmakers to make decisions easily in order to
move forward with capabilities that mature quickly,
cancel those that encounter greater difficulties than
expected, and trade-off or reduce requirements to
maintain cost and schedule;
(E) enabling program managers to focus on
overcoming execution challenges and delivering success
rather than concentrating on compliance with reporting,
certifications, and other redtape; and
(F) senior decisionmakers who have knowledge of
demonstrated performance as programs proceed through
development, with robust developmental testing
occurring before committing to production for
operational use as a basis for decision making.
(4) Balanced oversight.--An acquisition system
characterized by balanced oversight means that the focus is on
ensuring discipline initiating programs and that appropriate
adjustments are made during development, so that programs have
the best chance to succeed. Such balanced oversight includes--
(A) involvement by decisionmakers early to ensure
that an understanding of trade-offs, risks, and needs
are considered, resourced, and validated, and that
agreement is reached between the executive and
legislative branches;
(B) acceptance by decisionmakers that complex
weapon system developments are inherently risky and
require expertise and flexibility to manage
effectively;
(C) conscious decisions by decisionmakers regarding
where to accept risk, while ensuring that risk
mitigation plans are resourced (with time, funding,
alternatives, and competent government and contractor
officials);
(D) measuring and monitoring by decisionmakers of
the right factors, such as technology maturation
progress and systems engineering during risk reduction,
development cost growth during engineering and
manufacturing development, and reliability growth
during system demonstration;
(E) work by Congress and the Department of Defense,
once a program has begun, to resolve issues by
considering trade-offs among cost, schedule, and
performance necessary to best support the warfighter;
and
(F) congressional understanding of risks and
efforts to mitigate such risks even if they are through
non-traditional means or other technological advances.

party agent and shared with the Federal agency is

``(D) disputes between the third party agent and an
offeror may not be used to justify a determination that

for the award of such a contract or task or delivery
order.

SEC. 847. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON PROCUREMENT OF FIRE HOSES.
(a) Findings.--
(1) The General Services Administration has historically
procured specialized fire hoses designed for combating
wildfires used by the Forest Service.
(2) A memorandum of agreement was signed on February 5,
2014, by the Administrator of General Services and the Director
of the Defense Logistics Agency designating the Defense
Logistics Agency as the integrated material manager and source
of supply for such fire hoses.
(3) While the intent of this agreement was to secure
efficiencies in procurement and cost savings for the
Government, the transfer of procurement authority to the
Department of Defense had the unintentional effect of requiring
all suppliers of such fire hoses to comply with the domestic
sourcing requirements of section 2533a of title 10, United
States Code, also known as the Berry Amendment.
(4) There is currently only one known provider of such fire
hoses and that provider is not fully compliant with the
domestic sourcing requirements of the Berry Amendment.
(5) As a result of the designation of the Defense Logistic
Agency as the integrated material manager for the procurement
of such fire hoses and the new requirement for compliance with
the Berry Amendment, the Forest Service does not anticipate the
ability to procure the necessary number of fire hoses before
the fire season begins in early June and is currently facing a
shortfall of 56,000 hoses out of the 93,000 required. According
to the Chief of the Forest Service, this shortfall represents a
critical risk to a number of States that are likely to
experience a season of above average wildfire activity.
(6) During the period of May 1, 2014, through May 5, 2015,
less than 9 percent of quantities of such hoses purchased by
the Defense Logistics Agency were procured for the purposes of
the Department of Defense.
(b) Sense of Congress.--Based on the findings in subsection (a), it
is the sense of Congress that procurement authority for specialized
fire hoses for the United States Forest Service should be reestablished
as an activity of the General Services Administration.

SEC. 864. USE OF LOWEST PRICE, TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE EVALUATION METHOD
FOR PROCUREMENT OF AUDIT OR AUDIT READINESS SERVICES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Given the size and scope of the Department of Defense,
the effort to finish and institutionalize auditability is one
of the more challenging management tasks that has ever faced
the Department.
(2) The acquisition of services by the Department abides by
many rules and parameters, one of which is the lowest price,
technically acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method.
(3) The Department's audit effort is extremely complicated,
requiring personnel and assistance who have the financial
management and auditor skills that a non-independent public
accounting firm or a non-credentialed firm offering the lowest
price may not have.
(4) In order for the Department to meet the September 30,
2017, audit readiness statutory deadline and the March 31,
2019, audit of fiscal year 2018 statutory deadline, it is
imperative that the Department not sacrifice contracts with
firms who have the proper credentials and expertise to meet
these deadlines.
(5) The LPTA evaluation method is appropriate for
commercial or non-complex services or supplies where the
requirement is clearly definable and the risk of unsuccessful
contract performance is minimal. However, audit and audit
readiness services are complex and evolving.
(b) Requirements Before Using LPTA Evaluation Method.--Before using
the lowest price, technically acceptable evaluation method for the
procurement of audit or audit readiness services, the Secretary of
Defense shall--
(1) establish the values and metrics for the services being
procured, including domain expertise and experience, size and
scope of offeror's team, personnel qualifications and
certifications, technology, and tools; and
(2) review each offeror's past performance requirements.

provided in subsection (g),'' after ``subsection (c),''; and

SEC. 904. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) As senior United States statesman Dr. Henry Kissinger
wrote in testimony submitted to the Senate Armed Services
Committee on January 29, 2015, ``The United States has not
faced a more diverse and complex array of crises since the end
of the Second World War.''.
(2) The rise of non-state forces and near peer competitors
has introduced destabilizing pressures around the globe.
(3) Advances in information and weapons technology have
reduced the time available for the United States to prepare for
and respond to crises against both known and unknown threats.
(4) The importance of the maritime domain cannot be
overstated. As acknowledged in the March 2015 Navy, Marine
Corps, and Coast Guard maritime strategy, ``A Cooperative
Strategy for 21st Century Seapower'': ``Oceans are the
lifeblood of the interconnected global community. . . 90
percent of trade by volume travels across the oceans.
Approximately 70 percent of the world's population lives within
100 miles of the coastline.''.
(5) The United States must be prepared to rapidly respond
to crises around the world regardless of the nation's fiscal
health.
(6) In this global security environment, it is critical
that the nation possess a maritime force whose mission and
ethos is readiness--a fight tonight force, forward deployed,
that can respond immediately to emergent crises across the full
range of military operations around the globe either from the
sea or home station.
(7) The need for such a force was recognized by the 82nd
Congress after the major wars of the twentieth century, when it
mandated a core mission for the nation's leanest force--the
Marine Corps--to be most ready when the nation is least ready.
(b) Sense of Congress.--
(1) It is the sense of Congress that--
(A) the Marine Corps, within the Department of the
Navy, remain the Nation's expeditionary, crisis
response force;
(B) the need for such a force with such a
capability has never been greater; and
(C) accordingly, in recognition of this need and
the wisdom of the 82nd Congress, the 114th Congress
reaffirms section 5063 of title 10, United States Code,
uniquely charging the United States Marine Corps with
this responsibility.
(2) It is further the sense of Congress that the Marine
Corps--
(A) shall--
(i) be organized to include not less than
three combat divisions and three air wings, and
such other land combat, aviation, and other
services as may be organic therein;
(ii) be organized, trained, and equipped to
provide fleet marine forces of combined arms,
together with supporting air components, for
service with the fleet in the seizure or
defense of advanced naval bases and for the
conduct of such land operations as may be
essential to the prosecution of a naval
campaign; and
(iii) provide detachments and organizations
for service on armed vessels of the Navy, shall
provide security detachments for the protection
of naval property at naval stations and bases,
and shall perform such other duties as the
President may direct;
but these additional duties may not detract from nor
interfere with the operations for which the Marine
Corps is primarily organized;
(B) shall develop, in coordination with the Army
and the Air Force, those phases of amphibious
operations that pertain to the tactics, techniques, and
equipment used by landing forces; and
(C) is responsible, in accordance with the
integrated joint mobilization plans, for the expansion
of peacetime components of the Marine Corps to meet the
needs of war.
SEC. 905. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR STREAMLINING OF DEPARTMENT OF
DEFENSE MANAGEMENT HEADQUARTERS.
(a) Findings.--
(1) On July 31, 2013, the then Secretary of Defense stated
that the Department would ``reduc[e] the Department's major
headquarters budgets by 20 percent. . .Although the 20 percent
cut applies to budget dollars, organizations will strive for a
goal of 20 percent reductions in government civilians and
military personnel.'' The then Secretary further stated that
``these management reforms. . .will reduce the Department's
overhead and operating costs by...$10 billion over the next
five years.''.
(2) Furthermore, the President's budget request for the
Department of Defense for fiscal year 2015 stated that
reductions to management headquarters staff and consolidation
of duplicative efforts across the Department would result in a
savings of $5.3 billion over 5 years--through fiscal year 2019.
However, as noted by the Government Accountability Office in a
January 2015 report (GAO-15-10), the Department accounted for
$5.3 billion as efficiency savings in its budget request, but
has not provided specific details on the reductions to
management headquarters' staff it plans to make.
(3) In June 2014, the Government Accountability Office
found (in GAO-14-439) that the Department did not have an
accurate accounting of the resources being devoted to
management headquarters to use as a starting point for tracking
reductions to such headquarters. In April 2015, the Government
Accountability Office reported (in GAO-15-404SP) that focusing
reductions on management headquarters budgets and personnel,
which tend to be inconsistently defined and often represent a
small portion of the overall headquarters, shields much of the
resources identified for potential reduction.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Secretary of Defense's commitment in July 2013 to a
goal of a 20 percent reduction in headquarters budgets and
personnel and a goal of $10 billion in cost savings over five
years is worthwhile and should be fully implemented;
(2) without a clear baseline for management headquarters,
it is difficult to demonstrate and track progress achieving
actual savings;
(3) any reduction in personnel should not be implemented as
an across-the-board cut, but rather should be strategically
designed to retain critical functions, capabilities, and skill
sets--including but not limited to depots and the acquisition
workforce--and eliminate unnecessary or redundant functions or
skill sets that do not benefit or support mission requirements;
(4) functions should be performed at the lowest appropriate
organizational level and those organizations should be
empowered and held accountable;
(5) duplicative functions at higher level organizations
should be eliminated; and
(6) the movement of a function from a management
headquarters to a different Department of Defense organization
or a lower level organization does not result in an efficiency,
since the same budget is still required to perform that
function.
(c) Requirement to Implement 20 Percent Reduction in Management
Headquarters Functions.--Section 904 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law 113-66; 10 U.S.C.
111 note) is amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:
``(e) Implementation of Management Headquarters Reduction.--The
Secretary of Defense shall implement the 20 percent reduction directed
by the Secretary in July 2013 in management headquarters budget and
personnel by September 30, 2019, for the covered organizations in the
National Capital Region (as defined in section 2674(f) of title 10,
United States Code). Such reductions shall be strategically designed to
retain critical functions, capabilities, and skill sets. Management,
functions, programs, or offices shall be moved to the lowest
appropriate organizational level. In any report issued pursuant to
subsection (d), the Secretary may not claim a cost savings solely based
on moving management, functions, programs, or offices from one
organization to another.''.
(d) Limitation on Working-capital Fund Positions.--Section 904 of
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 (Public Law
113-66; 10 U.S.C. 111 note) is further amended by adding at the end the
following new subsection:
``(f) Limitation on Working-capital Fund Positions.--In
implementing the 20 percent reduction referred to in subsection (e),
the Secretary of Defense may not reduce the number of Department of
Defense civilian employees whose salaries are funded from working-
capital funds except in accordance with section 2472 of title 10,
United States Code.''.

headquarters budgets and personnel as of fiscal year 2014,
including what is and is not included as part of management
headquarters accounting, and a detailed description of the
number of personnel, budgets, functions, capabilities, and
skill sets.'';
(3) in paragraph (2), as so redesignated--

each of fiscal years 2015 through 2024'' and inserting ``fiscal
year 2014, and estimated savings to be achieved, along with
associated changes or reductions in budget, for each of fiscal
years 2014 through 2024''.
(g) Additional Report Requirements.--Section 904(d) of such Act is
amended--
(1) in paragraph (1), by striking ``180 days after the date
of the enactment of this Act'' and inserting ``March 31,
2016''; and
(2) in paragraph (2)--

and all that follows through the end of the
subparagraph and inserting the following: ``and
specific detailed information on how the changes,
consolidations, or reductions were prioritized and
resulted in functions no longer being performed, in the
fiscal year covered by such report.'';
(B) in subparagraph (F), by striking ``,
including'' and all that follows through ``management
review''; and
(C) by adding at the end the following new
subparagraph:
``(H) A separate description of--
``(i) the management functions, programs,
or offices that were eliminated and how each
represents a redundant management or oversight
function; and
``(ii) the management, functions, programs,
or offices that were moved, and how moving each
will result in efficiency.''.
SEC. 906. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT AND WORKFORCE
INCENTIVE SYSTEM.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Section 1113 of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-84) required the
Department of Defense to institute a fair, credible, and
transparent performance appraisal system, given the name ``New
Beginnings,'' for employees, which--
(A) links employee bonuses and other performance-
based action to employee performance appraisals;
(B) ensures ongoing performance feedback and
dialogue among supervisors, managers, and employees
throughout the appraisal period, with timetables for
review; and
(C) develops performance assistance plans to give
employees formal training, on-the-job training,
counseling, mentoring, and other assistance.
(2) The military components and defense agencies of the
Department of Defense are currently reviewing the proposed
``New Beginnings'' performance management and workforce
incentive system developed in response to section 1113 of
Public Law 111-84.
(3) The Department of Defense anticipates it will begin
implementation of the ``New Beginnings'' performance management
and workforce incentive system in April 2016.
(4) The authority provided in section 1113 of Public Law
111-84 provided the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with
the Director of the Office of Personnel Management,
flexibilities in promulgating regulations to redesign the

(A) better meet mission needs;
(B) respond to managers' needs and the needs of
applicants;
(C) produce high-quality applicants;
(D) support timely decisions;
(E) uphold appointments based on merit system
principles; and
(F) promote competitive job offers.
(5) In implementing the ``New Beginnings'' performance
management and workforce incentive system, section 113 of
Public Law 111-84 requires the Secretary of Defense to comply
with veterans' preference requirements.
(6) Among the criteria for the new performance management
and workforce incentive system authorized under section 1113 of
Public Law 111-84, the Secretary of Defense is required to--
(A) adhere to merit principles;
(B) include a means for ensuring employee
involvement (for bargaining unit employees, through
their exclusive representatives) in the design and
implementation of the performance management and
workforce incentive system;
(C) provide for adequate training and retraining
for supervisors, managers, and employees in the
implementation and operation of the performance
management and workforce incentive system;
(D) develop a comprehensive management succession
program to provide training to employees to develop
managers for the agency and a program to provide
training to supervisors on actions, options, and
strategies a supervisor may use in administering the
performance management and workforce incentive system;
(E) include effective transparency and
accountability measures and safeguards to ensure that
the management of the performance management and
workforce incentive system is fair, credible, and
equitable, including appropriate independent
reasonableness reviews, internal assessments, and
employee surveys;
(F) use the annual strategic workforce plan
required by section 115b of title 10; and
(G) ensure that adequate agency resources are
allocated for the design, implementation, and
administration of the performance management and
workforce incentive system.
(7) Section 1113 of Public Law 111-84 also requires the
Secretary of Defense to develop a program of training--to be
completed by a supervisor every three years--on the actions,
options, and strategies a supervisor may use in--
(A) developing and discussing relevant goals and
objectives with the employee, communicating and
discussing progress relative to performance goals and
objectives, and conducting performance appraisals;
(B) mentoring and motivating employees, and
improving employee performance and productivity;
(C) fostering a work environment characterized by
fairness, respect, equal opportunity, and attention to
the quality of the work of employees;
(D) effectively managing employees with
unacceptable performance;
(E) addressing reports of a hostile work
environment, reprisal, or harassment of or by another
supervisor or employee; and
(F) allowing experienced supervisors to mentor new
supervisors by sharing knowledge and advice in areas
such as communication, critical thinking,
responsibility, flexibility, motivating employees,
teamwork, leadership, and professional development, and
pointing out strengths and areas of development.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the
Secretary of Defense should proceed with the collaborative work with
employee representatives on the ``New Beginnings'' performance
management and workforce incentive system and begin implementation of
the new system at the earliest possible date.

``(A) there is a direct link between the functions to be

(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The stability and security of Central American nations
have a direct impact on the stability and security of the
United States.
(2) Over the past decade, stability and increased security
in the Republic of Colombia has pushed illicit trafficking to
Central America bringing increased violence and instability.
(3) Much of Central America has seen spikes in violence and
homicides. In fiscal year 2013, the United Nations Office on
Drugs and Crime released its Global Study on Homicide 2013.
Four of the top five countries with the highest homicide rates
in the world were Central American nations including Honduras,
Belize, El Salvador, and Guatemala.
(4) In calendar year 2014, approximately 65,000
unaccompanied alien children from Central America entered the
United States through its southwest border. This number of such
children who enter the United States during calendar year 2015
is expected to be approximately the same.
(5) The southwest border of the United States continues to
be porous to illicit trafficking of narcotics, weapons, cash,
and people.
(6) In November 2014, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador
announced a Plan for the Alliance for Prosperity of the

address the ongoing violence and instability facing these three
nations by stimulating economic opportunities, improving public
safety and rule of law, and strengthening institutions to
increase trust in the state.
(7) The United States Government has stated its support for
the Alliance for Prosperity and included in the President's
fiscal year 2016 budget request $1,000,000,000 in Department of
State funds, to support the strategy for United States
engagement in Central America. According to the strategy, this
funding will be focused on promoting prosperity and regional
economic integration, enhancing security, and promoting
improved governance.
(8) None of the President's $1,000,000,000 budget request
for the strategy for United States engagement in Central
America includes any funding for Department of Defense programs
in the region.
(9) The Department of Defense provides training, equipment,
education, and interdiction efforts to address security
challenges in Central America through detection and monitoring
of illicit trafficking, assistance in illicit trafficking
interdictions, and building partnership capacities.
(10) The Department of Defense through its roles and
missions, is executing a plan to address security challenges in
Central America in conjunction with the United States Strategy
for Engagement in Central America.
(b) Policy.--It shall be the policy of the United States to
prioritize a Plan Central America to address the threatening levels of
violence, instability, illicit trafficking, and transnational organized
crime that challenge the sovereignty of Central American nations and
security of the United States. In order to address such issues, the
Department of Defense shall--
(1) increase the efforts of the Department of Defense as
the lead agency to detect and monitor the aerial and maritime
illicit trafficking into the United States;
(2) increase the efforts of the Department of Defense to
support aerial and maritime illicit trafficking interdiction
efforts;
(3) increase the efforts of the Department of Defense to
build partnership capacity with partner nations in Central
America to confront security challenges through increased
training opportunities, education, and exercises;
(4) enforce human rights requirements consistent with
section 2249e of title 10, United States Code, and increase the
training and education regarding human rights provided in
Central American nations; and
(5) support interagency efforts in Central America
addressing all levels of instability including development,
education, economic, political, and security challenges.

permanent U.S. military base in Latin America and the
Caribbean, its location provides persistent U.S. presence and
immediate access to the region, as well as supporting a layered
defense to secure the air and maritime approaches to the United
States''.
(4) Former Commander of United States Southern Command,
retired Admiral James Stavridis, recently stated ``Guantanamo
Bay Naval Station has immense strategic value above and beyond
its reputation as a detention facility. It is the logistic,
planning, surveillance and basing linchpin for the U.S. Fourth
Fleet, crucial to the military for disaster relief,
humanitarian work, medical diplomacy, and counternarcotics, all
key missions for the U.S. Navy in Latin America and the
Caribbean. The U.S. should do all in its power to maintain its
legal control over the base''.
(5) In testimony in front of the Committee on Armed
Services of the House of Representatives in 2012, then-
Commander of United States Southern Command, General Douglas
Fraser, stated, ``Absent a detention facility and even
following the eventual demise of the Castro regime, the
strategic capability provided by the U.S. Naval Station
Guantanamo Bay remains essential for executing national
priorities throughout the Caribbean, Latin America, and South
America''.
(6) As part of ``normalizing'' relations with the
government of Cuba, announced in December 2014, ongoing
negotiations are occurring to determine the diplomatic
framework between the governments of the United States and
Cuba.
(7) In January 2015, soon after negotiations began between
the United States and Cuba, Cuban President Raul Castro
demanded the return of United States Naval Station, Guantanamo
Bay, Cuba, to Cuba.
(8) In February 2015, Assistant Secretary of State for
Western Hemisphere Affairs Roberta Jacobson, in testimony in
front of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of
Representatives, stated that the return of United States Naval
Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is ``not on the table in these
conversations'', referencing current diplomatic negotiations.
Later in her testimony Assistant Secretary Jacobson pointed
out, referring to the possible closure of the Naval Station,
that she is not a ``high enough ranking person to know. .
.whether it could be in the future''.

SEC. 1219. SENSE OF CONGRESS RELATING TO DR. SHAKIL AFRIDI.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The attacks of September 11, 2001, killed approximately
3,000 people, most of whom were Americans, but also included
hundreds of individuals with foreign citizenships, nearly 350
New York Fire Department personnel, and about 50 law
enforcement officers.
(2) Downed United Airlines flight 93 was reportedly
intended, under the control of the al-Qaeda high-jackers, to
crash into the White House or the Capitol in an attempt to kill
the President of the United States or Members of the United
States Congress.
(3) The September 11, 2001, attacks were largely planned
and carried out by the al-Qaeda terrorist network led by Osama
bin Laden and his deputy Ayman al Zawahiri, after which Osama
bin Laden enjoyed safe haven in Pakistan from where he
continued to plot deadly attacks against the United States and
the world.
(4) The United States has obligated nearly $30 billion
between 2002 and 2014 in United States taxpayer money for
security and economic aid to Pakistan.
(5) The United States very generously and swiftly responded
to the 2005 Kashmir Earthquake in Pakistan with more than $200
million in emergency aid and the support of several United
States military aircraft, approximately 1,000 United States
military personnel, including medical specialists, thousands of
tents, blankets, water containers and a variety of other
emergency equipment.
(6) The United States again generously and swiftly
contributed approximately $150 million in emergency aid to
Pakistan following the 2010 Pakistan flood, in addition to the
service of nearly twenty United States military helicopters,
their flight crews, and other resources to assist the Pakistan
Army's relief efforts.
(7) The United States continues to work tirelessly to
support Pakistan's economic development, including millions of
dollars allocated towards the development of Pakistan's energy
infrastructure, health services and education system.
(8) The United States and Pakistan continue to have many
critical shared interests, both economic and security related,
which could be the foundation for a positive and mutually
beneficial partnership.
(9) Dr. Shakil Afridi, a Pakistani physician, is a hero to
whom the people of the United States, Pakistan and the world
owe a debt of gratitude for his help in finally locating Osama
bin Laden before more innocent American, Pakistani and other
lives were lost to this terrorist leader.
(10) Pakistan, the United States and the international
community had failed for nearly 10 years following attacks of
September 11, 2001, to locate and bring Osama bin Laden, who
continued to kill innocent civilians in the Middle East, Asia,
Europe, Africa and the United States, to justice without the
help of Dr. Afridi.
(11) The Government of Pakistan's imprisonment of Dr.
Afridi presents a serious and growing impediment to the United
States' bilateral relations with Pakistan.
(12) The Government of Pakistan has leveled and allowed
baseless charges against Dr. Afridi in a politically motivated,
spurious legal process.
(13) Dr. Afridi is currently imprisoned by the Government
of Pakistan, a deplorable and unconscionable situation which
calls into question Pakistan's actual commitment to countering
terrorism and undermines the notion that Pakistan is a true
ally in the struggle against terrorism.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that Dr. Shakil
Afridi is an international hero and that the Government of Pakistan
should release him immediately from prison.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) In testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of
the House of Representatives, General Martin Dempsey, Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff stated, ``The global security
environment is as uncertain as I have seen in my 40 years of
service.''.
(2) In testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of
the Senate, the Director of National Intelligence, James
Clapper, stated: ``Sunni violent extremists are gaining
momentum and the number of Sunni violent extremist groups,
members, and safe havens is greater than at any other point in
history.''.
(3) In testimony to the Committee on Armed Services of the
House of Representatives, Lieutenant General Michael Flynn,
former Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency stated, ``.
. .whether it be the number of violent Islamist groups, the
territory which they control, the scale and scope of the
Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and associated
movements, the number of terrorist attacks they perpetrate, the
numbers of causalities they inflict, their broad expansion and
use of the internet, or just their sheer barbarism; I can draw
no other conclusion than to say that the threat of Islamic
extremism has reached an unacceptable level and that it is
growing.''.
(4) In testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of
the Senate, James Clapper, the Director of National
Intelligence, stated the following:
(A) ``When the final counting is done, 2014 will
have been the most lethal year for global terrorism in
the 45 years such data has been compiled . . . about
half of all attacks, as well as fatalities, in 2014
occurred in just three countries: Iraq, Pakistan and
Afghanistan . . . the Islamic State in Iraq and the
Levant (ISIL) conducted more attacks than any other
terrorist group in the first nine months of 2014.''.
(B) ``Since the conflict began, more than 20,000
Sunni foreign fighters have traveled to Syria from more
than 90 countries to fight the Assad regime . . . of
that number, at least 13,600 have extremist ties.''.
(C) ``More than 3,400 Western fighters have gone to
Syria and Iraq. Hundreds have returned home to
Europe.''.
(D) ``About 180 Americans or so have been involved
in various stages of travel to Syria . . . and some
number have come back.''.
(E) ``ISIL, al-Qaeda and al-Qaeda in the Arabian
Peninsula (AQAP), and, most recently, al-Shabaab are
calling on their supporters to conduct lone-wolf
attacks against the United States and other Western
countries. Of the 13 attacks in the West since last
May, 12 were conducted by individual extremists.''.
(5) AQAP continues to be one of al-Qaeda's most capable
affiliates, has the intent and capability to attack the United
States and its allies, and attempted attacks inside the United
States on December 25, 2009, and October 27, 2010.
(6) Iran has been a Department of State-designated state
sponsor of terrorism since January 19, 1984, and continues to
sponsor and support terrorism throughout the Middle East region
and around the world.
(7) In testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of
the Senate, former Vice Chief of Staff of the Army, General
Jack Keane (retired), stated, ``Is it possible to . . . claim
that the United States policy and strategy is working or that
al-Qaeda is on the run? It is unmistakable that our policies
have failed . . . And the unequivocal explanation is U.S.
policy has focused on disengaging from the Middle East.''.
(8) In testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of
the Senate, former commander of United States Central Command,
General James Mattis (retired), stated, ``We have lived too
long in a strategy-free mode . . . America needs a refreshed
national strategy . . . And our Nation's strategy demands a
comprehensive approach.''.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) Islamic extremism is growing in the Middle East and
elsewhere;
(2) Iran continues to be a leading state sponsor of
terrorism in the Middle East and across the globe and continues
to actively work against United States interests;
(3) the threat of terrorist attacks in the United States

prevent the spread of malign Iranian influence in Iraq, Syria,

SEC. 1232. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE GOVERNMENT OF IRAN'S NUCLEAR
PROGRAM AND ITS MALIGN MILITARY ACTIVITIES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The understanding announced on April 2, 2015, between
the countries of the P5+1 (the United States, the United
Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and China) and Iran on a
Comprehensive Joint Plan of Action (CJPOA) provides sanctions
relief in exchange for constraints on Iran's nuclear program
for a limited period of time.
(2) Iran continues to develop ballistic missiles in
violation of United Nations Security Council Resolutions 1747
(2007) and 1929 (2010), has developed medium-range ballistic
missiles to target Israel and other United States allies, is
working towards an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)
capability and the CJPOA places no limitations on Iran's
ballistic and cruise missile development efforts.
(3) The Secretary of State has designated Iran as a state-
sponsor of terrorism since 1984 and for the past decade has
characterized Iran as the ``most active state sponsor of
terrorism'' in the world.
(4) Iran continues to support Hezbollah in Lebanon, the
Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria, Shia militias in Iraq, Hamas
in Gaza, the Houthi rebels in Yemen, and other terrorist
organizations and extremists globally.
(5) Iran continues to conduct malign military activities
across the Middle East and around the globe, which has and will
continue to destabilize the region. As the Commander of United
States Central Command testified to the Committee on Armed
Services of the House of Representatives on March 3, 2015,
``the leaders in the region. . . are also equally concerned
about Iran's ability to mine the Straits, Iran's cyber
capabilities, Iran's. . . ballistic missile capability, as well
as the activity of their Quds forces... And so whether we get a
deal or don't get a deal, I think they will still share those
concerns.''.
(6) Iran's destabilizing activities throughout the region
pose a threat to United States interests, the interests of
United States allies in the region, and international security.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) Iran's illicit pursuit, development, or acquisition of
a nuclear weapons capability and its malign military activities
overall constitute a grave threat to regional stability and the
national security interests of the United States and its allies
and partners;
(2) Iran continues to expand its malign activities in the
Middle East and globally, which may well increase under a
CJPOA;
(3) sanctions relief under the CJPOA will provide Iran the
ability to increase funding for its ballistic missile
development programs, acquisition of destabilizing types and
amounts of conventional weapons, support for terrorism, and
other malign activities throughout the Middle East and
globally;
(4) United States bilateral and multilateral sanctions
against Iran, once relieved, will be extremely difficult to
reconstitute in response to Iranian violations of its
international obligations;
(5) Iran would be an internationally-approved nuclear-
threshold state under the framework of the CJPOA, which will
likely lead to the proliferation of nuclear weapons across the
Middle East;
(6) Congress should review and assess all elements of any
agreement entered into between the countries of the P5+1 and
Iran and it should approve or disapprove of any sanctions
relief that results from such an agreement;
(7) the United States must continue to support the defense
of allies and partners in the region, including Israel,
strengthening ballistic missile defense capabilities, and
increasing security assistance;
(8) Congress supports efforts to reach a peaceful,
diplomatic solution to permanently and verifiably end Iran's
pursuit, development, and acquisition of a nuclear weapons
capability, and it reaffirms that it is United States policy
that Iran will not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapons
capability and that all instruments of United States power must
be considered to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon;
(9) Congress reaffirms the rights of United States allies
to exercise their legitimate right to self-defense against the
Government of Iran;
(10) the sale of advanced weaponry to Iran, particularly
advanced air defenses, encourages bad behavior by Iran and
poses a high risk of destabilizing the region and should be
opposed; and
(11) no terrorism-related sanctions should be lifted or
loosened as a part of any nuclear agreement and additional
sanctions should be considered against Iran due to Iran's
continued state sponsorship of terrorism, its development and
proliferation of ballistic missile technology, its continued
biological and chemical weapons programs, and the egregious
violation of the human rights of the Iranian people.

SEC. 1243. NON-COMPLIANCE BY THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION WITH ITS
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE INF TREATY.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Department of State, on July 31, 2014, released the
Annual Report on the ``Adherence to and Compliance With Arms
Control, Nonproliferation, and Disarmament Agreements and
Commitments'' which included the finding that, ``The United
States has determined that the Russian Federation is in
violation of its obligations under the INF Treaty not to
possess, produce, or flight-test a ground-launched cruise
missile (GLCM) with a range capability of 500 km to 5,500 km,
or to possess or produce launchers of such missiles.''.
(2) According to the testimony of senior officials of the
Department of State, the Russian Federation is not complying
with numerous treaties and agreements, including the INF
Treaty, the Open Skies Treaty, the Biological Weapons
Convention, the Chemical Weapons Convention, the Vienna
Document, the Budapest Memorandum, the Istanbul Commitments,
the Presidential Nuclear Initiatives, the Missile Technology
Control Regime, and the Russian Federation has recently
withdrawn from the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in
Europe (CFE).
(3) The Commander of U.S. European Command, and Supreme
Allied Commander of Europe, General Philip Breedlove, USAF,
stated that ``[a] weapon capability that violates the I.N.F.,
that is introduced into the greater European land mass is
absolutely a tool that will have to be dealt with . . . I would
not judge how the alliance will choose to react, but I would
say they will have to consider what to do about it, [i]t can't
go unanswered.''.
(4) General Breedlove has further stated that `` we need to
first and foremost signal that we cannot accept this change and
that, if this change is continued, that we will have to change
the cost calculus for Russia in order to help them to find
their way to a less bellicose position.''.
(5) General Martin Dempsey, Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff
testified that, ``I think we have to make it very clear that
things like their compliance with the INF treaty that there
will be political, diplomatic and potentially military costs in
terms of the way we posture ourselves and the way we plan and
work with our allies to address those provocations. . .It
concerns me greatly. I certainly would counsel them not to roll
back the clock.''.
(6) The Secretary of Defense, Ashton B. Carter, testified
that, ``On the military side, we have begun to consider . . .
what our options are, because the INF treaty is a treaty,
meaning that it's a two-way street. We accepted constraints in
return for constraints of the then Soviet Union. It is a two-
way street, and we need to remind them that it's a two-way
street, meaning that we, without an INF treaty, can take action
also that we both decided years ago was best for neither of us
to take.''.
(7) The Department of Defense has been considering a range
of military options to respond to the Russian Federation's
violation of the INF Treaty and these options would ``aim to
negate any advantage Russia might gain from deploying an INF-
prohibited system, and all of these would be designed to make
us more secure'', and these options ``fall into three broad
categories: active defenses to counter intermediate-range
ground-launched cruise missiles; counterforce capabilities to
prevent intermediate-range ground-launched cruise missile
attacks; and countervailing strike capabilities to enhance U.S.
or allied forces.''.
(8) President Barack Obama stated in Prague in 2009 that,
``Rules must be binding. Violations must be punished. Words
must mean something.''.
(b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that--
(1) the Russian Federation should return to compliance with
the INF Treaty;
(2) the continuing violation of the INF Treaty by the
Russian Federation threatens the viability of the INF Treaty;
(3) the United States has reportedly been undertaking
diplomatic efforts to address with the Russia Federation its
violations of the INF Treaty since 2013, and the Russian
Federation has failed to respond to these efforts in any
meaningful way;
(4) not only should the Russian Federation end its cheating
with respect to the INF Treaty, but also its illegal occupation
of the sovereign territory of another nation, its plans for
stationing nuclear weapons on that nation's territory, and its
cheating and violation of as many as eight of its 12 arms
control obligations and agreements; and
(5) there are several United States military requirements
that would be addressed by the development and deployment of
systems currently prohibited by the INF Treaty.
(c) Notification of Russian Violations of INF Treaty.--
(1) In general.--The President shall submit to the
appropriate congressional committees a notification of--
(A) whether the Russian Federation has flight-
tested, deployed, or possesses a military system that
has achieved an initial operating capability of a
covered missile system; and
(B) whether the Russian Federation has begun steps
to return to full compliance with the INF Treaty,
including by agreeing to inspections and verification
measures necessary to achieve high confidence that any
covered missile system will be eliminated, as required
by the INF Treaty upon its entry into force.
(2) Deadline.--The notification required under paragraph
(1) shall be submitted not later than 30 days after the date of
the enactment of this Act and not later than 30 days after the
date on which the Russian Federation meets any of the
requirements of subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (1).
(3) Form.--The notification required under paragraph (1)
shall be submitted in unclassified form, but may contain a
classified annex if necessary.
(d) Notification of Coordination With Allies Regarding INF
Treaty.--

of 5 years, the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the

submit to the appropriate congressional committees a
notification on the status and content of updates provided to
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and allies of the
United States in East Asia, on the Russian Federation's flight

description of efforts with such allies to develop collective
responses, including economic and military responses, to the
Russian Federation's arms control violations, including
violations of the INF Treaty.

year 2016 for research, development, test, and evaluation,
Defense-wide, as specified in the funding table in section
4201, to carry out the development of capabilities pursuant to
paragraph (1) that are recommended by the Chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff to meet military requirements and current
capability gaps. In making such a selection, the Chairman shall

could be tested and fielded most expediently, with the most
priority given to capabilities that the Chairman determines
could be fielded in two years.

(2) Operation Atlantic Resolve is a series of exercises and
coordinating efforts meant to demonstrate the United States'
commitment to the Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia, and
Lithuania, and the United States-Baltic partnership's shared

Reassurance Initiative undertakes exercises, training, and
rotational presence necessary to reassure and integrate our
Baltic State allies into a common defense framework.

Subtitle F--Matters Relating to the Asia-Pacific Region
SEC. 1251. SENSE OF CONGRESS RECOGNIZING THE 70TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE
END OF ALLIED MILITARY ENGAGEMENT IN THE PACIFIC THEATER.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings
(1) September 2, 2015, marks the 70th anniversary of the
end of Allied military engagement in the Pacific theater, also
marking the end of the Second World War.
(2) The United States entered the Second World War in
December 1941, following the Empire of Japan's attack on Pearl
Harbor, and over the next four years Americans participated in
what was arguably the greatest national endeavor in the
Nation's history.
(3) The casualty toll of Americans in the Pacific theater
during the Second World War was approximately 92,904 killed,
208,333 wounded, and tens of thousands missing in action and
prisoners of war, with civilians and military forces of the
Allied Powers suffering equally devastating tolls.
(4) American military forces displayed extraordinary
courage and suffered significant casualties in battles across
the Pacific theater, including in the Battle of the Philippine
Sea, the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the Philippines Campaign, the
Battle of Iwo Jima, and the Battle of Okinawa.
(5) Japanese military forces and the Japanese civilian
population also suffered staggering losses.
(6) On August 15, 1945, Emperor Hirohito of Japan announced
the unconditional surrender of Japan's military forces, made
formal on September 2, 1945, aboard the U.S.S. Missouri in
Tokyo Bay, Japan, thus ending the most devastating war in human
history.
(7) Japan is now a free and prosperous democracy; a valued
ally with shared values and mutual interests based on the
principles of democracy, individual liberty, and the rule of
law, who serves as a cornerstone for peace and security in the
region and for whom the United States seeks to further enhance
security, economic, and diplomatic ties.
(8) The bravery and sacrifice of the members of the United
States Armed Forces and the military forces of the Allied
Powers who served valiantly to rescue the Pacific nations from
tyranny and aggression should be always remembered.
(b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
(1) recognizes the 70th anniversary of the end of Allied
military engagement in the Pacific theater, and also marking
the end of Second World War;
(2) joins with a grateful nation in expressing respect and
appreciation to the members of the United States Armed Forces
who served in the Pacific theater during the Second World War;
(3) remembers and honors those Americans who made the
ultimate sacrifice and gave their lives for their country
during the campaigns in the Pacific theater during the Second
World War; and
(4) preserves and applies the lessons learned from the
history of the Second World War in the Pacific theater and
recognizes the close alliance between the United States and
Japan, codified in the 1960 Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and
Security between the United States and Japan, that continues to
be enhanced to maintain peace and prosperity in the region.
SEC. 1252. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING CONSOLIDATION OF UNITED STATES
MILITARY FACILITIES IN OKINAWA, JAPAN.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The defense alliance between the United States and
Japan remains important and strong.
(2) Progress continues to be made in the United States and
Japan to fulfill the April 27, 2012, agreement of the United
States-Japan Security Consultative Committee that modified the
United States-Japan Roadmap for Realignment Implementation,
originally codified on May 1, 2006, including the Governor of
Okinawa signing the landfill permit for Henoko construction on
December 27, 2013, and the elimination of restrictions on
Government of Japan contributions for the realignment of Marine
Corps forces in the Asia-Pacific region by section 2821 of the
Military Construction Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015
(division B of Public Law 113-291).
(3) The Government of Japan has made significant and
unprecedented direct financial contributions of more than
$3,000,000,000 to the Support for United States Relocation to
Guam Account pursuant to section 2350k of title 10, United
States Code, for the relocation of Marine Corps forces from
Okinawa to Guam and the relocation of certain training from
Okinawa to the Marianas region, of which nearly $1,000,000,000
has already been received from the Government of Japan, and a
significant amount of these funds has already been obligated
and expended to support the relocation of Marine Corps forces
on Guam.
(4) It is important to return formerly used United States
military property in Okinawa to the local government.
(5) Consolidation of United States facilities and the
return of formerly used United States military property in
Okinawa will be implemented as soon as possible, while ensuring
operational capability, including training capability,
throughout the consolidation process.
(6) Under the April 27, 2012, agreement referred to in
paragraph (2), the United States is authorized to establish
Marine Air-Ground Task Forces at additional locations in the
Asia-Pacific region, including Guam, Hawaii, and Australia,
which will enhance their readiness posture through flexibility
and speed to respond to regional threats and maintain regional
peace, stability, and security.
(7) Even though realignment of Marine Corps forces from
Okinawa to Guam is ``de-linked'' from progress on the
construction of the Futenma Replacement Facility in Henoko,
there must be continued progress on Guam and Okinawa to meet
the agreement.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the Henoko
location for the Futenma Replacement Facility--
(1) has been studied and analyzed for several decades,
reaffirmed by both the United States and Japan on several
occasions, including the 2010 Futenma Replacement Facility

SEC. 1267. UNITED STATES-ISRAEL ANTI-TUNNEL DEFENSE COOPERATION.
(a) Findings and Sense of Congress.--
(1) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(A) Tunnels have been used for centuries around the
world as a means of avoiding detection or circumventing
defenses.
(B) Tunnels can be used for criminal purposes, such
as smuggling drugs, weapons, or humans, or for
terrorist or military purposes, such as launching
surprise attacks or detonating explosives underneath
infrastructure.
(C) Tunnels have been a growing threat on the
southern border of the United States for more than 11
years, and the Department of Homeland Security has been
working to address this threat.
(D) The conflict in Gaza in 2014 showed that
terrorists are now actively using tunnels as a means of
attack, and news reports indicate that tunnels are
being used in Syria as well.
(E) Terrorist organizations are quick to adopt
successful tactics, and it is only a matter of time
before other terrorist organizations begin using
tunnels.
(F) The facilities of the United States, and those
of the allies of the United States, could be under
threat very quickly if tunnel threats continue to
proliferate.
(G) Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Palestinian Islamic
Jihad are United States-designated terrorist
organizations.
(H) Designated Palestinian terrorist organizations
have killed hundreds of Israelis and dozens of
Americans in rocket attacks and suicide bombings.
(I) Hamas has used underground tunnels to Israel
and Egypt to smuggle weapons, money, and supplies into
Gaza and to send members of Hamas out of Gaza for
training and to bring trainers in to Gaza to teach
Hamas how to manufacture rockets and build better
tunnels. Tunnels in Gaza have also been used as
underground rocket launching sites, weapons caches,
bunkers, transportation networks and command and
control centers.
(J) In 2006, Hamas kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad
Shalit through a tunnel and held him for five years.
(K) The Israel Defense Forces discovered 32 tunnels
during the conflict with Hamas in the summer of 2014,
14 of which crossed into Israel.
(L) Hamas intentionally uses civilians as human
shields by placing its underground tunnel network in
densely populated areas and schools, hospitals, and
mosques.
(M) Hamas's placement of explosive material in its
vast network of tunnels in Gaza has caused civilian
casualties through secondary and tertiary explosions.
(N) While the unemployment rate in Gaza is at 38
percent, it is estimated that Hamas spends $3,000,000
per tunnel.
(O) United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
said he was ``shocked by the tunnels used for the
infiltration of terrorists''.
(P) Hamas has claimed to be rebuilding tunnels in
Gaza after the war with Israel in the summer of 2014.
(Q) Hezbollah has used underground tunnels in
southern Lebanon to move Hezbollah fighters and to
launch attacks.
(R) The Palestinian Islamic Jihad claims to be
digging new tunnels on the Gaza border. Israel has a
right to defend itself from the violence of Palestinian
terrorist groups, including the violence that is
facilitated through terrorist tunnel networks.
(S) The United States is working cooperatively with
the Government of Israel to develop technologies to
detect and neutralize tunnels penetrating the territory
of Israel.
(2) Sense of congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(A) it is in the best interests of the United
States to develop technology to detect and counter
tunnels, and the best way to do this is to partner with
other affected countries; and
(B) Israel is facing serious threats posed by
tunnels and should be the first partner of the United
States in addressing this significant challenge.

Government of Israel is unable to contribute on
an equitable basis;

to receive quarterly reports on expenditure of
funds by the Government of Israel, including a
description of what the funds have been used
for, when funds were expended, and an
identification of entities that expended the
funds.

Government of Israel, is authorized to provide assistance to
Israel for the procurement, maintenance, and sustainment of an
anti-tunneling system described in paragraph (1).

North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies, especially
those NATO allies under pressure on the Eastern flank of the

(2) the ``current and foreseeable security environment'',
as referenced in paragraph 12 of Section IV on Political-
Military Matters of the Founding Act on Mutual Relations,
Cooperation and Security between NATO and the Russian
Federation (NATO-Russia Founding Act), has changed
significantly since the signing of such Act in 1997 and thus
such Act should not be read, interpreted, or implemented so as

and supporters of aspiring members and the United States

from combat in Afghanistan, necessary to meet the
security threats to the Alliance;
(2) NATO member states should review defense spending to

Subtitle C--European Reassurance Initiative and Related Matters
SEC. 1531. STATEMENT OF POLICY REGARDING EUROPEAN REASSURANCE
INITIATIVE.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) In February 2015, Lieutenant General James Clapper
(retired), Director of National Intelligence, testified to the
Committee on Armed Services of the Senate that ``Russian
dominance over the former Soviet space is Russia's highest
foreign policy goal''.
(2) Russia, under the direction of President Vladimir
Putin, has demonstrated its intent to expand its sphere of
influence beyond its borders and limit Western influence in the
region.
(3) The Russian military is aggressively postured on the
Ukrainian boarder and continues its buildup of military
personnel and material. These aggressive and unwarranted
actions serve to intimidate, with a show of force, the
Ukrainian people as well as the other nations in the region
including Georgia, the Baltic States, and the Balkan States.
(4) In December 2014, Congress enacted the Ukraine Freedom
Support Act of 2014 (Public Law 113-272), which gives the
President the authority to expand assistance to Ukraine,
increase economic sanctions on Russia, and provide equipment to
counter offensive weapons.
(5) In February 2015, the Atlantic Council, the Brookings
Institute, and the Chicago Council on Global Affairs published
a report entitled ``Preserving Ukraine's Independence,
Resisting Russian Aggression: What the United States and NATO
Must Do'' advocating for increased United States assistance to
Ukraine with nonlethal and lethal defensive equipment.
(6) Despite Russia signing the February 2015 Minsk
Agreement, it has continued to violate the terms of the
agreement, as noted by Assistant Secretary of State for
European and Eurasian Affairs, Victoria Nuland, at the German
Marshall Fund Brussels Forum in March 2015: ``We've seen month
on month, more lethal weaponry of a higher caliber...poured
into Ukraine by the separatist Russian allies...the number one
thing is for Russia to stop sending arms over the border so we
can have real politics.''.
(7) The military of the Russian Federation continues to
increase their show of force globally, including frequent
international military flights, frequent snap exercises of
thousands of Russian troops, increased global naval presence,
and the threat of the use of nuclear weapons in defense of the
annexation of Crimea in March 2014.
(8) The Government of the Russian Federation continues to
exert and increase undue influence on the free will of
sovereign nations and people with intimidation tactics, covert
operations, cyber warfare, and other unconventional methods.
(9) In testimony to the Committee on Armed Services of the
House of Representatives in February 2015, Commander of
European Command, General Philip Breedlove, United States Air
Force, stated that ``Russia has employed `hybrid warfare'...to
illegally seize Crimea, foment separatist fever in several
sovereign nations, and maintain frozen conflicts within its so-
called `sphere of influence' or `near abroad'''.
(10) The use of unconventional methods of warfare by Russia
presents challenges to the United States and its partners and
allies in addressing the threat.
(11) An enhanced United States military presence and
readiness posture and the provision of security assistance in
Europe are key elements to deterring further Russian aggression
and reassuring United States allies and partners.
(12) In the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291), Congress authorized and
appropriated $1 billion for the European Reassurance
Initiative, which supports Operation Atlantic Resolve of the
United States Armed Forces.
(13) The European Reassurance Initiative expands United
States military presence in Europe, through--
(A) bolstered and continual United States military
presence;
(B) bilateral and multilateral exercises with
partners and allies;
(C) improved infrastructure;
(D) increased prepositioning of United States
equipment throughout Europe; and
(E) building partnership capacity for allies and
partners.
(14) The European Reassurance Initiative has served as a
valuable tool in strengthening the partnerships with the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) as well as partnerships
with non-member allies in the region.
(15) As a result of the NATO 2014 Summit in Wales, NATO has
initiated a Readiness Action Plan to increase partner nation
funding and resourcing to combat Russian aggression. NATO's
efforts with the Readiness Action Plan and United States
investment in regional security through the European
Reassurance Initiative will serve to continue and reinforce the
strength and fortitude of the alliance against nefarious
actors.
(16) The President's Budget Request for fiscal year 2016
includes $789.3 million to continue the European Reassurance
Initiative focus on increased United States military troop
rotations in support of Operation Atlantic Resolve, maintaining
and further expanding increasing regional exercises, and
building partnership capacity.
(b) Statement of Policy.--It is the policy of the United States to
continue and expand its efforts in Europe to reassure United States
allies and partners and deter further aggression and intimidation by
the Russian Government, in order to enhance security and stability in
the region. This policy shall include--
(1) continued use of conventional methods, including
increased United States military presence in Europe, exercises
and training with allies and partners, increasing
infrastructure, prepositioning of United States military
equipment in Europe, and building partnership capacity;
(2) increased emphasis on countering unconventional warfare
methods in areas such as cyber warfare, economic warfare,
information operations, and intelligence operations, including
increased efforts in the development of strategy, operational
concepts, capabilities, and technologies; and
(3) increased security assistance to allies and partners in
Europe, including the provision of both non-lethal equipment
and lethal equipment of a defensive nature to Ukraine.
SEC. 1532. ASSISTANCE AND SUSTAINMENT TO THE MILITARY AND NATIONAL
SECURITY FORCES OF UKRAINE.
(a) Authority to Provide Assistance.--The Secretary of Defense is
authorized, with the concurrence of the Secretary of State, to provide
assistance, including training, equipment, lethal weapons of a
defensive nature, logistics support, supplies and services, and
sustainment to the military and national security forces of Ukraine,
