    some of the State Farm Service Agency offices in each State the
    opportunity to provide agricultural producers in the State a
    supplemental payment described in subsection (c) based on the alternate
    calculation method described in subsection (b) for 1 or more counties
    in a State if the office for that State determines that the alternate
    calculation method is necessary to ensure that, to the maximum extent
    practicable, there are not significant yield calculation disparities
    between comparable counties in the State.
        (b) The alternate calculation method referred to in subsection (a)
    is a method of calculating the actual yield for the 2017 crop year for
    county-level agriculture risk coverage payments under section
    1117(b)(1) of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017(b)(1)), under

            (2) if there is insufficient NASS data for a county (as
        determined under standards of the Secretary in effect as of the
        date of enactment of this Act) or the available NASS data produces

        yield is determined using comparable contiguous county NASS data as
        determined by the Farm Service Agency office in the applicable
        State; and
            (3) if there is insufficient NASS data for a comparable
        contiguous county (as determined under standards of the Secretary
        in effect as of the date of enactment of this Act), the calculation
        of the county yield is determined using reliable yield data from
        other sources, such as Risk Management Agency data, National
        Agricultural Statistics Service district data, National
        Agricultural Statistics Service State yield data, or other data as
        determined by the Farm Service Agency office in the applicable
        State.
        (c)(1) A supplemental payment made under the pilot program
    established under this section may be made to an agricultural producer
    who is subject to the alternate calculation method described in
    subsection (b) if that agricultural producer would otherwise receive a
    county-level agriculture risk coverage payment for the 2017 crop year
    in an amount that is less than the payment that the agricultural
    producer would receive under the alternate calculation method.
        (2) The amount of a supplemental payment to an agricultural
    producer under this section may not exceed the difference between--
            (A) the payment that the agricultural producer would have
        received without the alternate calculation method described in
        subsection (b); and
            (B) the payment that the agricultural producer would receive
        using the alternate calculation method.
        (d)(1) There is appropriated to the Secretary, out of funds of the
    Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $5,000,000, to remain available
    until September 30, 2019, to carry out the pilot program described in
    this section.
        (2) Of the funds appropriated, the Secretary shall use not more
    than $5,000,000 to carry out the pilot program described in this
    section.
        (e)(1) To the maximum extent practicable, the Secretary shall
    select States to participate in the pilot program under this section so
    the cost of the pilot program equals the amount provided under
    subsection (d).
        (2) To the extent that the cost of the pilot program exceeds the
    amount made available, the Secretary shall reduce all payments under
    the pilot program on a pro rata basis.
        (f) Nothing in this section affects the calculation of actual yield
    for purposes of county-level agriculture risk coverage payments under
    section 1117(b)(1) of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C.
    9017(b)(1)) other than payments made in accordance with the pilot
    program under this section.
        (g) A calculation of actual yield made using the alternate
    calculation method described in subsection (b) shall not be used as a
    basis for any agriculture risk coverage payment determinations under
    section 1117 of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017) other than
    for purposes of the pilot program under this section.

    shall, at a minimum, require that the person will not disclose any
    classified information received in the course of such activity unless
    specifically authorized to do so by the United States Government. Such
    nondisclosure forms shall also make it clear that they do not bar

    liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial and
    administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is
    not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the
    authority responsible for collecting the tax liability, where the

    agency has considered suspension or debarment of the corporation and
    has made a determination that this further action is not necessary to
    protect the interests of the Government.
        Sec. 746.  None of the funds made available by this or any other

    months, where the awarding agency is aware of the conviction, unless a
    Federal agency has considered suspension or debarment of the
    corporation and has made a determination that this further action is

    with the Congressional Budget Office, an adjustment to the
    discretionary spending limit in such category for fiscal year 2018

    the Secretary of State or the USAID Administrator, as appropriate,
    determines and reports promptly to the Committees on Appropriations

    fiscal year shall be obligated only for the purpose of such
    designation.

            for Federal-aid highway programs; and
                (B) the Secretary determines will not be allocated to the

    of the amount made available for obligation as of October 1 of the
    current fiscal year, and shall be applied to projects within the same
    general geographic area within 50 miles for which the funding was
    designated, except that a State or territory may apply such authority
    to unexpended balances of funds from projects or activities the State
    or territory certifies have been closed and for which payments have
    been made under a final voucher.
        (d) The Secretary shall submit consolidated reports of the
    information provided by the States and territories each quarter to the

    Federal Highway Administration or Federal Transit Administration grant
    from imposing such hiring preference on a contract or construction
    project with which the Department of Transportation is assisting, only
    if the grant recipient certifies the following:
            (1) that except with respect to apprentices or trainees, a pool
        of readily available but unemployed individuals possessing the
        knowledge, skill, and ability to perform the work that the contract

        hiring preference; and
            (3) that any increase in the cost of labor, training, or delays

    housing project or projects to another multifamily housing project or

        (b) Phased Transfers.--Transfers of project-based assistance under
    this section may be done in phases to accommodate the financing and
    other requirements related to rehabilitating or constructing the
    project or projects to which the assistance is transferred, to ensure
    that such project or projects meet the standards under subsection (c).
        (c) The transfer authorized in subsection (a) is subject to the
    following conditions:
            (1) Number and bedroom size of units.--
                (A) For occupied units in the transferring project: The
            number of low-income and very low-income units and the
            configuration (i.e., bedroom size) provided by the transferring
            project shall be no less than when transferred to the receiving
            project or projects and the net dollar amount of Federal

            Secretary may authorize a reduction in the number of dwelling
            units in the receiving project or projects to allow for a
            reconfiguration of bedroom sizes to meet current market
            demands, as determined by the Secretary and provided there is
            no increase in the project-based assistance budget authority.
            (2) The transferring project shall, as determined by the
        Secretary, be either physically obsolete or economically nonviable.
            (3) The receiving project or projects shall meet or exceed
        applicable physical standards established by the Secretary.
            (4) The owner or mortgagor of the transferring project shall

        project and provide a certification of approval by all appropriate
        local governmental officials.
            (5) The tenants of the transferring project who remain eligible
        for assistance to be provided by the receiving project or projects
        shall not be required to vacate their units in the transferring
        project or projects until new units in the receiving project are
        available for occupancy.
            (6) The Secretary determines that this transfer is in the best
        interest of the tenants.
            (7) If either the transferring project or the receiving project
        or projects meets the condition specified in subsection (d)(2)(A),
        any lien on the receiving project resulting from additional
        financing obtained by the owner shall be subordinate to any FHA-
        insured mortgage lien transferred to, or placed on, such project by
        the Secretary, except that the Secretary may waive this requirement
        upon determination that such a waiver is necessary to facilitate
        the financing of acquisition, construction, and/or rehabilitation
        of the receiving project or projects.
            (8) If the transferring project meets the requirements of
        subsection (d)(2), the owner or mortgagor of the receiving project
        or projects shall execute and record either a continuation of the
        existing use agreement or a new use agreement for the project
        where, in either case, any use restrictions in such agreement are
        of no lesser duration than the existing use restrictions.

        are provided in advance for the amount of any such increased cost.

    based contracts remain in effect prior to foreclosure, subject to the
    exercise of contractual abatement remedies to assist relocation of
    tenants for imminent major threats to health and safety after written
    notice to and informed consent of the affected tenants and use of other
    available remedies, such as partial abatements or receivership. After
    disposition of any multifamily property described under this section,
    the contract and allowable rent levels on such properties shall be
    subject to the requirements under section 524 of MAHRAA.
        Sec. 215.  The commitment authority funded by fees as provided
    under the heading ``Community Development Loan Guarantees Program
    Account'' may be used to guarantee, or make commitments to guarantee,

    Act of 1974:  Provided, That any State receiving such a guarantee or

    the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g(d) and (e)), the
    Secretary shall not impose any requirement or guideline relating to
    asset management that restricts or limits in any way the use of capital
    funds for central office costs pursuant to section 9(g)(1) or 9(g)(2)
    of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g(g)(1), (2)):
    Provided, That a public housing agency may not use capital funds
    authorized under section 9(d) for activities that are eligible under
    section 9(e) for assistance with amounts from the operating fund in
    excess of the amounts permitted under section 9(g)(1) or 9(g)(2).
        Sec. 218.  No official or employee of the Department of Housing and
    Urban Development shall be designated as an allotment holder unless the
    Office of the Chief Financial Officer has determined that such
    allotment holder has implemented an adequate system of funds control
    and has received training in funds control procedures and directives.
    The Chief Financial Officer shall ensure that there is a trained
    allotment holder for each HUD sub-office under the accounts ``Executive
    Offices'' and ``Administrative Support Offices,'' as well as each
    account receiving appropriations for ``Program Office Salaries and
    Expenses'', ``Government National Mortgage Association--Guarantees of
    Mortgage-Backed Securities Loan Guarantee Program Account'', and
    ``Office of Inspector General'' within the Department of Housing and

    issuance of a notice of the availability of assistance or notice of
    funding availability (NOFA) for any program or discretionary fund
    administered by the Secretary that is to be competitively awarded.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for fiscal year 2018, the
    Secretary may make the NOFA available only on the Internet at the
    appropriate Government web site or through other electronic media, as
    determined by the Secretary.
        Sec. 220.  Payment of attorney fees in program-related litigation
    shall be paid from the individual program office and Office of General
    Counsel salaries and expenses appropriations. The annual budget
    submission for the program offices and the Office of General Counsel
    shall include any such projected litigation costs for attorney fees as
    a separate line item request. No funds provided in this title may be
    used to pay any such litigation costs for attorney fees until the
    Department submits for review a spending plan for such costs to the
    House and Senate Committees on Appropriations.
        Sec. 221.  The Secretary is authorized to transfer up to 10 percent
    or $5,000,000, whichever is less, of funds appropriated for any office
    under the heading ``Administrative Support Offices'' or for any account
    under the general heading ``Program Office Salaries and Expenses'' to
    any other such office or account:  Provided, That no appropriation for
    any such office or account shall be increased or decreased by more than
    10 percent or $5,000,000, whichever is less, without prior written
    approval of the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations:
    Provided further, That the Secretary shall provide notification to such

    multifamily housing project with a section 8 contract or contract for
    similar project-based assistance--
            (1) receives a Uniform Physical Condition Standards (UPCS)
        score of 60 or less; or
            (2) fails to certify in writing to the Secretary within 3 days
        that all Exigent Health and Safety deficiencies identified by the
        inspector at the project have been corrected.
    Such requirements shall apply to insured and noninsured projects with
    assistance attached to the units under section 8 of the United States
    Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f), but do not apply to such units
    assisted under section 8(o)(13) (42 U.S.C. 1437f(o)(13)) or to public

        conditions, including imposition of civil money penalties and
        termination of subsidies, and identify properties that have such
        conditions multiple times;
            (2) actions that the Department of Housing and Urban
        Development is taking to protect tenants of such identified
        properties; and
            (3) any administrative or legislative recommendations to
        further improve the living conditions at properties covered under a
        housing assistance payment contract.

    described in section 6(a) only to the extent, and in the total amounts,
    provided for in Appropriations Acts.

    collect regulatory fees at such rates as the Commission shall establish
    in a schedule of regulatory fees that will result in the collection, in
    each fiscal year, of an amount that can reasonably be expected to equal
    the amounts described in subsection (a) with respect to such fiscal
    year.
        ``(c) Adjustment of Schedule.--
            ``(1) In general.--For each fiscal year, the Commission shall

    required by subsection (c), the Commission shall by rule amend the
    schedule of regulatory fees established under this section if the
    Commission determines that the schedule requires amendment so that such
    fees reflect the full-time equivalent number of employees within the
    bureaus and offices of the Commission, adjusted to take into account
    factors that are reasonably related to the benefits provided to the
    payor of the fee by the Commission's activities. In making an amendment
    under this subsection, the Commission may not change the total amount
    of regulatory fees required by subsection (b) to be collected in a
    fiscal year.
        ``(e) Exceptions.--

        this section shall be deposited as an offsetting collection in, and
        credited to, the account through which funds are made available to
        carry out the activities described in section 6(a).

        collected in excess of the total amount of fees provided for in
        Appropriations Acts for a fiscal year shall be deposited in the
        general fund of the Treasury of the United States for the sole
        purpose of deficit reduction.''.

    Eradication of Human Trafficking'' or the ``TARGET Act''.

    SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) Trafficking in persons is a major transnational crime, as
        recognized by the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (22
        U.S.C. 7101 et seq.; division A of Public Law 106-386).
            (2) Trafficking in persons is increasingly perpetrated by
        organized, sophisticated criminal enterprises.
            (3) Combating trafficking in persons requires a global approach
        to identifying and apprehending the world's worst human trafficking
        rings.
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the
    Department of State's rewards program is a powerful tool in combating
    sophisticated international crime and that the Department of State and
    Federal law enforcement should work in concert to offer rewards that
    target human traffickers who prey on the most vulnerable people around
    the world.

    SEC. 3. REWARDS FOR JUSTICE.

        ems to the right;
            (3) by inserting before clause (i), as redesignated, the
        following:
                ``(A) means--'';

            Act of 2000 (22 U.S.C. 7102)) involving at least 1 jurisdiction

    SEC. 1001. SHORT TITLE.

        This title may be cited as the ``Taylor Force Act''.

    SEC. 1002. FINDINGS.

        Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The Palestinian Authority's practice of paying salaries to
        terrorists serving in Israeli prisons, as well as to the families
        of deceased terrorists, is an incentive to commit acts of terror.
            (2) The United States does not provide direct budgetary support
        to the Palestinian Authority. The United States does pay certain
        debts held by the Palestinian Authority and funds programs for
        which the Palestinian Authority would otherwise be responsible.
            (3) The United States Government supports community-based
        programs in the West Bank and Gaza that provide for basic human
        needs, such as food, water, health, shelter, protection, education,
        and livelihoods, and that promote peace and development.
            (4) Since fiscal year 2015, annual appropriations legislation
        has mandated the reduction of Economic Support Fund aid for the
        Palestinian Authority as a result of their payments for acts of
        terrorism including, in fiscal year 2017, a reduction ``by an
        amount the Secretary determines is equivalent to the amount
        expended by the Palestinian Authority, the Palestine Liberation
        Organization, and any successor or affiliated organizations with
        such entities as payments for acts of terrorism by individuals who
        are imprisoned after being fairly tried and convicted for acts of
        terrorism and by individuals who died committing acts of terrorism
        during the previous calendar year''.

    SEC. 1003. SENSE OF CONGRESS.

        Congress--
            (1) calls on the Palestinian Authority, the Palestine
        Liberation Organization, and any successor or affiliated
        organizations to stop payments for acts of terrorism by individuals
        who are imprisoned after being fairly tried and convicted for acts
        of terrorism and by individuals who died committing acts of
        terrorism and to repeal the laws authorizing such payments;
            (2) calls on all donor countries providing budgetary assistance
        to the Palestinian Authority to cease direct budgetary support
        until the Palestinian Authority stops all payments incentivizing
        terror;
            (3) urges the Palestinian Authority to develop programs to
        provide essential public services and support to any individual in
        need within its jurisdictional control, rather than to provide
        payments contingent on perpetrating acts of violence;
            (4) urges the United States Permanent Representative to the
        United Nations to use the voice, vote, and influence of the United
        States at the United Nations to highlight the issue of Palestinian
        Authority payments for acts of terrorism and to urge other Member
        States to apply pressure upon the Palestinian Authority to
        immediately cease such payments; and
            (5) urges the Department of State to use its bilateral and
        multilateral engagements with all governments and organizations
        committed to the cause of peace between Israel and the Palestinians
        to highlight the issue of Palestinian Authority payments for acts
        of terrorism and to urge such governments and organizations to join
        the United States in calling on the Palestinian Authority to
        immediately cease such payments.

            terrorism to determine the level of compensation paid, or have
            taken comparable action that has the effect of invalidating any
            such law, decree, regulation, or document; and
                (D) are publicly condemning such acts of violence and are

                             DIVISION V--CLOUD ACT

    SEC. 101. SHORT TITLE.

        This division may be cited as the ``Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use
    of Data Act'' or the ``CLOUD Act''.

    SEC. 102. CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS.

        Congress finds the following:
            (1) Timely access to electronic data held by communications-
        service providers is an essential component of government efforts
        to protect public safety and combat serious crime, including
        terrorism.
            (2) Such efforts by the United States Government are being
        impeded by the inability to access data stored outside the United
        States that is in the custody, control, or possession of
        communications-service providers that are subject to jurisdiction
        of the United States.
            (3) Foreign governments also increasingly seek access to
        electronic data held by communications-service providers in the
        United States for the purpose of combating serious crime.
            (4) Communications-service providers face potential conflicting
        legal obligations when a foreign government orders production of
        electronic data that United States law may prohibit providers from
        disclosing.
            (5) Foreign law may create similarly conflicting legal
        obligations when chapter 121 of title 18, United States Code
        (commonly known as the `` Stored Communications Act''), requires
        disclosure of electronic data that foreign law prohibits
        communications-service providers from disclosing.
            (6) International agreements provide a mechanism for resolving
        these potential conflicting legal obligations where the United
        States and the relevant foreign government share a common
        commitment to the rule of law and the protection of privacy and
        civil liberties.

    SEC. 103. PRESERVATION OF RECORDS; COMITY ANALYSIS OF LEGAL PROCESS.

        (a) Required Preservation and Disclosure of Communications and
    Records.--
            (1) Amendment.--Chapter 121 of title 18, United States Code, is
        amended by adding at the end the following:

    ``Sec. 2713. Required preservation and disclosure of communications and
                records

        ``A provider of electronic communication service or remote
    computing service shall comply with the obligations of this chapter to
    preserve, backup, or disclose the contents of a wire or electronic
    communication and any record or other information pertaining to a
    customer or subscriber within such provider's possession, custody, or
    control, regardless of whether such communication, record, or other
    information is located within or outside of the United States.''.
            (2) Table of sections.--The table of sections for chapter 121
        of title 18, United States Code, is amended by inserting after the
        item relating to section 2712 the following:

    ``2713. Required preservation and disclosure of communications and
              records.''.
        (b) Comity Analysis of Legal Process Seeking Contents of Wire or
    Electronic Communication.--Section 2703 of title 18, United States
    Code, is amended by adding at the end the following:
        ``(h) Comity Analysis and Disclosure of Information Regarding Legal
    Process Seeking Contents of Wire or Electronic Communication.--
            ``(1) Definitions.--In this subsection--
                ``(A) the term `qualifying foreign government' means a
            foreign government--

                agreement that has entered into force under section 2523;
                and
                    ``(ii) the laws of which provide to electronic
                communication service providers and remote computing
                service providers substantive and procedural opportunities
                similar to those provided under paragraphs (2) and (5); and

        communication service to the public or remote computing service,

        computing service, that is being required to disclose pursuant to
        legal process issued under this section the contents of a wire or
        electronic communication of a subscriber or customer, may file a
        motion to modify or quash the legal process where the provider
        reasonably believes--

            States person and does not reside in the United States; and
                ``(ii) that the required disclosure would create a material
            risk that the provider would violate the laws of a qualifying
            foreign government.

            date on which the provider was served with the legal process,
            absent agreement with the government or permission from the
            court to extend the deadline based on an application made
            within the 14 days. The right to move to quash is without
            prejudice to any other grounds to move to quash or defenses
            thereto, but it shall be the sole basis for moving to quash on
            the grounds of a conflict of law related to a qualifying
            foreign government.
            ``(B) Upon receipt of a motion filed pursuant to subparagraph
        (A), the court shall afford the governmental entity that applied
        for or issued the legal process under this section the opportunity
        to respond. The court may modify or quash the legal process, as
        appropriate, only if the court finds that--
                ``(i) the required disclosure would cause the provider to
            violate the laws of a qualifying foreign government;
                ``(ii) based on the totality of the circumstances, the
            interests of justice dictate that the legal process should be

            person and does not reside in the United States.

        under paragraph (2)(B)(ii), the court shall take into account, as

        this subsection, unless the court finds that immediate production
        is necessary to prevent an adverse result identified in section
        2705(a)(2).

        within a qualifying foreign government, designated in an executive
        agreement under section 2523, the fact of the existence of legal
        process issued under this section seeking the contents of a wire or
        electronic communication of a customer or subscriber who is a
        national or resident of the qualifying foreign government.
