SEC. 326. OFFSHORE WIND ENERGY DEVELOPMENT, MORRO BAY, CALIFORNIA.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Since 2016, the Department of Defense and Department of
the Navy have been working with State and Federal stakeholders
to determine whether a commercial lease for the development of
renewable energy off the coast of Morro Bay, California could
be developed in a manner that is compatible with the training
and readiness requirements of the Department of Defense.
(2) Military readiness and the ability to conduct realistic
training are critical to our national security; however, energy
security and other ocean uses are also important. These
interests should be balanced to the extent practicable when
analyzing offshore energy proposals.
(3) In August 2019, Members of Congress, the Assistant
Secretary of Defense for Sustainment, senior officials from
other Federal agencies, and state and local elected
representatives met to discuss a path forward to accommodate
wind energy development off the Central Coast of California
while ensuring the Department of Defense was able to continue
meeting its testing, training, and operational requirements.
(4) Following the initial meeting in August 2019, the
stakeholder group continued meeting at roughly monthly
intervals through 2019 and into 2020 to discuss options and
work towards a mutually agreeable solution for renewable energy
development and continued military testing, training, and
operational requirements off the Central Coast of California.
(5) In May 2020, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for
Energy, Installations, and Environment notified stakeholders
that despite the previous year of negotiations, it was his view
any wind energy developments off the Central Coast of
California may not be viewed as being compatible with military
activities. This unilateral decision was made abruptly, without
providing any supporting analysis or acknowledgment of the
progress and commitments made during previous negotiations, and
was not in the spirit of cooperation and collaboration that had
driven the previous nine months of stakeholder engagements.
(6) Stakeholder confidence in the Department of Defense
review process is paramount. Abrupt and unilateral changes of
course erode confidence and undermine the State, local, and
industry trust in a fair, transparent, and predictable
adjudication of potential conflicts.
(7) In early 2019, in order to create continuity between
the offshore and terrestrial processes, the Department of
Defense consolidated its review of proposed energy development
projects so that offshore energy proposals were now included in
the Military Aviation and Installation Assurance Clearinghouse
(the Clearinghouse). The Clearinghouse has a proven record for
reviewing proposed energy development projects through a fair
and transparent process. The Morro Bay proposal pre-dates this
consolidation but underwent a similar Department of Defense led
compatibility review.
(8) Congress has generally supported the transparent and
fair Clearinghouse review process, as well as all efforts
between the Department of Defense and other stakeholders to
reach solutions that allow for the development of energy
projects in a manner that is compatible with military testing,
training, and operational requirements.
(9) Legislating a solution to a specific energy development
proposal should only be reserved for rare occasions. Due to
Navy's abrupt and unilateral decision to walk away from
productive negotiations, after months of good-faith efforts by
other stakeholders and public engagement, the threshold for
congressional intervention has been reached.
(b) Responsibility.--All interaction on behalf of the Department of
the Navy with the California Energy Commission, Federal agencies, State
and local governments, and potential energy developers regarding
proposed offshore wind energy off the central coast of California shall
be performed through the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition and Sustainment.
(c) Briefing Requirement; Limitation.--
(1) Briefing.--Not later than 180 days after the date of
the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall
provide to the Committees on Armed Services and the Committee
on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives a briefing
on status of the review by the Offshore Energy Working Group of
the request to locate at least two offshore wind lease areas
proximate to and within the Morro Bay Call Area. Such briefing
shall include--
(A) a detailed map that shows any areas identified;
(B) proposed mitigations that would enable
compatible development in the areas identified;
(C) any unresolved issues; and
(D) any other terms of the agreement reached with
the California Energy Commission, other Federal
agencies, State and local governments, and potential
energy developers.
(2) Limitation.--The Secretary of Defense may not issue a
final offshore wind assessment that proposes wind exclusion
areas and may not object to an offshore energy project in the
Central Coast of California that has filed for review by the
Military Aviation and Installation Assurance Clearinghouse
until the Secretary provides the briefing required under
paragraph (1).
(d) Limitation on Use of Funds.--Of the amounts authorized to be
appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for the Department
of Defense for fiscal year 2021, not more than 75 percent may be
obligated or expended for the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the
Navy for Energy, Installations, and Environment until the date that is

SEC. 828. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE PROHIBITION ON CERTAIN
TELECOMMUNICATIONS AND VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SERVICES OR
EQUIPMENT.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Prohibiting the use of telecommunications and video
surveillance products or services from certain Chinese entities
within the Federal Government's supply chain is essential to
our national security.
(2) Section 889 of the John S. McCain National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 115-232; 132
Stat. 1917; 41 U.S.C. note prec. 3901) restricts Federal
agencies from procuring, contracting with entities that use, or
funding the purchase of certain telecommunications products of
Chinese companies determined by Congress to pose a substantial
threat to the security of our communication infrastructure.
(3) Specifically, section 889(a)(1)(B) of such Act,
effective August 13, 2020, will prohibit Federal agencies from
entering into, extending, or renewing a contract with an entity
that uses covered telecommunications and video surveillance
equipment or services from designated Chinese companies,
including Huawei and ZTE, in their supply chains.
(4) As of July 1, 2020, the Federal Acquisition Regulatory
Council has yet to release a draft rule for public comment on
the implementation of the prohibitions described in section
889(a)(1)(B) of such Act, leaving Federal agencies and
contractors that provide equipment and services to the Federal
Government without implementation guidance necessary to
adequately plan for or comply with the prohibitions.
(5) Belated, and then hurried, implementation of this
critical prohibition puts at risk the Federal Government's
ability to acquire essential goods and services and increases
vulnerability in the supply chain through inconsistent
implementation.
(6) A senior Department of Defense leader testified on June
10, 2020, that, ``I am very concerned about being able to
implement [the prohibition] in August, as well as totally
comply within two years . . . I believe we need more time''.
(7) Subsequent to the enactment of the John S. McCain
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public
Law 115-232), Congress established the Federal Acquisition
Security Council (FASC)--comprised of senior officials from the
Office of Management and Budget, General Services
Administration, Department of Defense, Department of Homeland
Security and the intelligence community--to streamline the
Federal Government's supply chain risk management efforts and
develop criteria and processes for supply chain information
sharing among executive agencies.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) successful implementation of the prohibition on using
or procuring certain telecommunications and video surveillance
equipment under section 889 of the John S. McCain National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 115-
232; 132 Stat. 1917; 41 U.S.C. note prec. 3901) is critical to
protecting the supply chain of the Federal Government, and
Federal agencies should draw upon the expert resources
available (such as the Federal Acquisition Security Council
established under subchapter III of chapter 13 of title 41,
United States Code) to ensure implementation of such
prohibition is done in a comprehensive and deliberative manner;
and
(2) the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council shall ensure
successful implementation of such prohibition by providing
sufficient time for public comment and review of any related
rulemaking.

It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Peshmerga of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq have
made, and continue to make, significant contributions to the
security of Northern Iraq, by defending nearly 650 miles of
critical terrain, to degrade, dismantle, and ultimately defeat
the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in Iraq as a partner
in Operation Inherent Resolve;

ideology and combatants still linger and pose a threat of
resurgence if regional security is not sustained;

critical to maintaining a stable and tolerant Iraq in which all
faiths, sects, and ethnicities are afforded equal protection

Ministry of Peshmerga Affairs of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq
in support of counter-ISIS operations, in coordination with the

coupled with security sector reform in the region, will enable
them to more effectively partner with other elements of the

the mission of defending independence and democracy from
aggression and in promoting stability and security within the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), with non-NATO

burden sharing and capital investment in materiel critical to
United States and allied security, investment of over 2 percent
of their gross domestic product on defense expenditure,
allocating over 20 percent of their defense budgets on capital
modernization, matching security assistance from the United
States, frequently deploying their forces around the world in
support of allied and United States objectives, and sharing
diplomatic, technical, military, and analytical expertise on
defense and security matters;
(4) the United States should continue to strengthen
bilateral and multilateral defense by, with, and through allied
nations, particularly those which possess expertise and
dexterity but do not enjoy the benefits of national economies
of scale;
(5) the United States should pursue consistent efforts
focused on defense and security assistance, coordination, and
planning designed to ensure the continued security of the
Baltic states and on deterring current and future challenges to
the national sovereignty of United States allies and partners
in the Baltic region; and
(6) such an initiative should include an innovative and

Russia, China and other actors.
(2) The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is the
most successful military alliance in history, having deterred

and maintain military forces totaling an estimated 1,900,000
service members, bolstering the alliance's collective capacity
to counter shared threats.
(5) At the NATO Wales Summit in 2014, NATO members pledged
to strive to increase their own defense spending to 2 percent
of their respective gross domestic products and to spend at
least 20 percent of their defense budgets on equipment by 2024
as part of their burden sharing commitments.
(6) Since 2014, there has been a steady increase in allied
defense spending, with 22 member countries meeting defense
spending targets in 2018 and having submitted plans to meet the
targets by 2024.
(7) In addition to individual defense spending
contributions, NATO allies and partners also contribute to NATO
and United States operations around the world, including the

Station Iwakuni, and $3,100,000,000 for construction on Guam to
support the movement of United States Marines from Okinawa.

presence, joint exercises, investments, and commitments that
contribute to the security of the United States and collective
security, and cease efforts that solely focus on the financial
contributions of United States allies and partners when
negotiating joint security arrangements;

alliances and security partnerships with like-minded
democracies around the world to deter aggression from
authoritarian competitors and promote peace and respect for

increase their military capacity and enhance their ability to
contribute to global peace and security;

supplying hundreds of tons of critical supplies globally, have
built nearly 100 field hospitals and dedicated more than half a

defense, defensive naval mining, and resilient command and
control capabilities that support the asymmetric defense

congressional defense committees that such operations do not cause
harmful interference to a Global Positioning System device of the
Department of Defense.
SEC. 1609. PROHIBITION ON AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FOR CERTAIN PURPOSES
RELATING TO THE GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) On April 19, 2020, the Federal Communications
Commission issued an order and authorization granting Ligado
Networks LLC the authority to operate a nationwide terrestrial
communications network using the 1526-1536 megahertz band, the
1627.5-1637.5 megahertz band, or the 1646.5-1656.5 megahertz
band.
(2) In an attempt to address interference to the Global
Positioning System operating near those bands, Ligado Networks
LLC has committed to assuming the costs mitigating any
interference caused by their network.
(3) In the approval order, the Federal Communications
Commission directed that ``Ligado takes all necessary
mitigation measures to prevent or remediate any potential
harmful interference to U.S. Government devices, including
devices used by the military, that are identified both pre- and
post-deployment of Ligado's network.''.
(4) In a letter to the Committee on Armed Services of the
House of Representatives dated May 21, 2020, Ligado Networks
LLC reaffirmed the commitment to bear the costs to the
Department of Defense, stating that the ``FCC directed Ligado
to provide protections to GPS devices using its spectrum by
imposing stringent coordination, cooperation, and replacement
obligations on Ligado, so that Ligado bears the burden'' and
``Make no mistake: the obligation is ours, and the burden falls
solely on our company.''.
(b) Prohibition.--Except as provided by subsection (c), none of the
funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act or otherwise made
available for fiscal year 2021 or any subsequent fiscal year for the
Department of Defense may be obligated or expended to retrofit any
Global Positioning System device or system, or network that uses the
Global Positioning System, in order to mitigate interference from
commercial terrestrial operations using the 1526-1536 megahertz band,
the 1627.5-1637.5 megahertz band, or the 1646.5-1656.5 megahertz band.
(c) Actions Not Prohibited.--The prohibition in subsection (a)
shall not apply to any action taken by the Secretary of Defense
relating to--
(1) conducting technical or information exchanges with the
entity that operates the commercial terrestrial operations in
the megahertz bands specified in such subsection;
(2) seeking compensation for interference from such entity;
or
(3) Global Positioning System receiver upgrades needed to
address other resiliency requirements.
SEC. 1610. REPORT ON RESILIENT PROTECTED COMMUNICATIONS SATELLITES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The national command, control, and communications
system of the Department of Defense is essential to the
national security of the United States.
(2) The Department of Defense requires the space segments
of such system to be resilient and survivable to address
advanced threats from Russia and China.
(3) The next-generation overhead persistent infrared
missile warning satellites are being upgraded with enhanced
resiliency features to make them much less vulnerable to attack
and will begin launch in 2025.
(4) Because missile warning satellites rely on protected
communications satellites to relay warnings and response
orders, the next-generation overhead persistent infrared
missile warning satellites will require protected
communications satellites with enhanced resiliency features,
however, the current plan of the Space Force is to provide
those capabilities with the evolved strategic satellite
communications program that will not be available until 2032 or
later.
(5) As a result, the Chief of Space Operations should
implement an accelerated plan to achieve more resilient
protected communications satellites without delay.
(b) Report.--Not later than 60 days after the date of the enactment
of this Act, the Chief of Space Operations shall submit to the
congressional defense committees a report on how the Space Force will
address the need for resilient protected communications satellites
during the years 2025 through 2032.

SPACE SENSOR PAYLOAD.
(a) Findings; Sense of Congress.--
(1) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(A) Subsection (d) of section 1683 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public
Law 115-91; 10 U.S.C. 2431 note), as amended by section
1683 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2020 (Public Law 116-92), requires the
Director of the Missile Defense Agency to develop a
hypersonic and ballistic tracking space sensor payload
to address missile defense tracking requirements.
(B) The budget of the President for fiscal year
2021 submitted under section 1105 of title 31, United
States Code, did not provide any funding for the
Missile Defense Agency to continue the development of
such sensor payload.
(2) Sense of congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(A) regardless of the overall architecture for a
missile defense tracking space layer, the Director of
the Missile Defense Agency should remain the material
developer for the hypersonic and ballistic tracking
space sensor payload to ensure that--
(i) unique hypersonic and ballistic missile
tracking requirements are met; and
(ii) the system can be integrated into the
existing missile defense system command and
control, battle management, and communications
system; and
(B) the Secretary of Defense should ensure
transparency of funding for this effort to ensure
proper oversight can be conducted on this critical
capability.
(b) Limitation.--Subsection (d) of section 1683 of the National

inserting ``the Chief of Space Operations, the Commander of the United
States Space Command, the Commander of the United States Northern
Command, and''.
SEC. 1654. ANNUAL CERTIFICATION ON HYPERSONIC AND BALLISTIC MISSILE
TRACKING SPACE SENSOR PAYLOAD.
(a) Finding; Sense of Congress.--
(1) Finding.--Congress finds that the budget submitted by
the President under section 1105(a) of title 31, United States
Code, for fiscal year 2021 does not fully fund an operational
capability for the hypersonic and ballistic missile tracking
space sensor within the tracking layer of the persistent space-
based sensor architecture of the Space Development Agency,
despite such space sensor being a requirement by the combatant
commanders and being highlighted as a needed capability against
both hypersonic and ballistic threats in the Missile Defense
Review published in 2019.
(2) Sense of congress.--It is the sense of Congress that
the Missile Defense Agency hypersonic and ballistic missile
tracking space sensor must be prioritized within the persistent
space-based sensor architecture of the Space Development Agency
to ensure the delivery of capabilities to the warfighter as
soon as possible.
(b) Annual Certification.--Subsection (d) of section 1683 of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law
115-91; 10 U.S.C. 2431 note), as amended by section 1653, is further
amended by adding at the end the following new paragraph:
``(4) Annual certification.--On an annual basis until the

sensor payload achieves full operational capability, the
Secretary of Defense, without delegation, shall submit to the
appropriate congressional committees a certification that--
``(A) the most recent future-years defense program
submitted under section 221 of title 10, United States
Code, includes estimated expenditures and proposed
appropriations in amounts necessary to ensure the
development and deployment of such space sensor payload
as a component of the sensor architecture developed
under subsection (a); and
``(B) the Commander of the United States Space
Command has validated both the ballistic and hypersonic
tracking requirements of, and the timeline to deploy,
such space sensor payload.''.
SEC. 1655. ALIGNMENT OF THE MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY WITHIN THE
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Since the Missile Defense Agency was aligned to be
under the authority, direction, and control of the Under
Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering pursuant to
section 205(b) of title 10, United States Code, the advanced
technology development budget requests in the defense budget
materials (as defined in section 231(f) of title 10, United
States Code) have decreased by more than 650 percent, from a
request for $292,000,000 for fiscal year 2018 (the highest such
request) to a request for $45,000,000 for fiscal year 2021.
(2) The overwhelming majority of the budget of the Missile
Defense Agency is invested in programs that would be
categorized as acquisition category 1 efforts if such programs
were administered under the acquisition standards under
Department of Defense Directive 5000.

SEC. 1721. SHORT TITLE.
This subtitle may be cited as the ``Space Technology Advancement
Report (STAR) Act of 2020''.
SEC. 1722. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) As stated in the United States-China Economic and
Security Commission's 2019 Report to Congress, the United
States retains many advantages over the People's Republic of
China (PRC) in space, including--
(A) the organization and technical expertise of its
space program;
(B) the capabilities of the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration for human spaceflight and
exploration;
(C) its vibrant commercial space sector;
(D) its long history of space leadership; and
(E) many international partnerships.
(2) The PRC seeks to establish a leading position in the
economic and military use of outer space and views space as
critical to its future security and economic interests.
(3) The PRC's national-level commitment to establishing
itself as a global space leader harms United States interests
and threatens to undermine many of the advantages the United
States has worked so long to establish.
(4) For over 60 years, the United States has led the world
in space exploration and human space flight through a robust
national program that ensures NASA develops and maintains
critical spaceflight systems to enable this leadership,
including the Apollo program's Saturn V rocket, the Space
Shuttle, the International Space Station and the Space Launch
System and Orion today.
(5) The Defense Intelligence Agency noted in its 2019
``Challenges to U.S. Security in Space'' report that the PRC
was developing a national super-heavy lift rocket comparable to
NASA's Space Launch System.
(6) The United States space program and commercial space
sector risks being hollowed out by the PRC's plans to attain
leadership in key technologies.
(7) It is in the economic and security interest of the
United States to remain the global leader in space power.
(8) A recent report by the Air Force Research Laboratory
and the Defense Innovation Unit found that China's strategy to
bolster its domestic space industry includes a global program
of theft and other misappropriation of intellectual property,
direct integration of state-owned entities and their technology
with commercial start-ups, the use of front companies to invest
in United States space companies, vertical control of supply
chains, and predatory pricing.
(9) The United States Congress passed the Wolf Amendment as
part of the Fiscal Year 2012 Consolidated and Further
Continuing Appropriations Act (Public Law 112-55) and every
year thereafter in response to the nefarious and offensive
nature of Chinese activities in the space industry.

SEC. 1756. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON EXTENSION OF LIMITATIONS ON IMPORTATION
OF URANIUM FROM RUSSIAN FEDERATION.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) a secure nuclear fuel supply chain is essential to the
economic and national security of the United States;
(2) the Government of the Russian Federation uses its
control over energy resources, including in the civil nuclear
sector, to exert political influence and create economic
dependency in other countries;
(3) the Agreement Suspending the Antidumping Investigation
on Uranium from the Russian Federation (commonly referred to as
the ``Russian Suspension Agreement''), which limits imports of
Russian uranium to 20 percent of the market share, is vital to
averting American dependence on Russian energy;
(4) the United States should--
(A) expeditiously complete negotiation of an
extension of the Russian Suspension Agreement to cap
the market share for Russian uranium at 20 percent or
lower; or
(B) if an agreement to extend the Russian
Suspension Agreement cannot be reached, complete the
antidumping investigation under title VII of the Tariff
Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671 et seq.) with respect to
imports of uranium from the Russian Federation--
(i) to avoid unfair trade in uranium and
maintain a nuclear fuel supply chain in the
United States, consistent with the national
security and nonproliferation goals of the
United States; and
(ii) to protect the United States nuclear
fuel supply chain from the continued
manipulation of the global and United States
uranium markets by the Russian Federation and
Russian-influenced competitors;
(5) a renegotiated, long-term extension of the Russian
Suspension Agreement can prevent adversaries of the United
States from monopolizing the nuclear fuel supply chain;
(6) as was done in 2008, upon completion of a new
negotiated long-term extension of the Russian Suspension
Agreement, Congress should enact legislation to codify the
terms of extension into law to ensure long-term stability for
the domestic nuclear fuel supply chain; and
(7) if the negotiations to extend the Russian Suspension
Agreement prove unsuccessful, Congress should be prepared to
enact legislation to prevent the manipulation by the Russian
Federation of global uranium markets and potential domination
by the Russian Federation of the United States uranium market.

of Defense.
(2) Legacy bulk fuel management will not meet the
accelerated pace of operations required to support the National

continues to decline, which has resulted in an excessive
reliance on foreign flagged tanking vessels to be available to
support the National Defense Strategy.

induces excessive risk to support United States disaggregated
operations in a highly contested environment.
(5) The inadequacies of the legacy bulk fuel management
strategy is particularly acute in the United States Indo-
Pacific Command Area of Responsibility.

organizational element should be responsible for the bulk fuel
management and delivery throughout the United States Indo-Pacific
Command Area of Responsibility.

organizational responsibility through the entirety of the bulk
fuel management system in the United States Indo-Pacific
Command Area of Responsibility, as proposed in the bulk fuel
management strategy prepared pursuant to paragraph (2) of such
subsection.
(e) Coordination.--The Secretary of the Navy shall conduct the
study and prepare the bulk fuel management strategy required by
subsection (c) in coordination with subject-matter experts of the

DIVISION E--NATIONAL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INITIATIVE ACT OF 2020
SEC. 5001. SHORT TITLE.
This division may be cited as the ``National Artificial
Intelligence Initiative Act of 2020''.
SEC. 5002. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Artificial intelligence is a tool that has the
potential to change and possibly transform every sector of the
United States economy and society.
(2) The Federal Government should continue to play an
important role advancing research, development, standards, and
education activities in artificial intelligence through
coordination and collaboration between government, academia,
and the private sector to leverage the intellectual, physical,
and digital resources of each stakeholder.
(3) The Federal Government lacks clear understanding of the
capabilities of artificial intelligence and its potential to
affect various social and economic sectors, including ethical
concerns, national security implications, and workforce
impacts.
(4) Researchers from academia, Federal laboratories, and
much of the private sector have limited access to many high-
quality datasets, computing resources, or real-world testing
environments to design and deploy safe and trustworthy
artificial intelligence systems.
(5) There is a lack of standards and benchmarking for
artificial intelligence systems that academia and the public
and private sectors can use to evaluate the performance of
these systems before and after deployment.
(6) Artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming a
highly interdisciplinary field with expertise required from a
diverse range of scientific and other scholarly disciplines
that traditionally work independently and continue to face
cultural and institutional barriers to large scale
collaboration.
(7) Current Federal investments and funding mechanisms are
largely insufficient to incentivize and support the large-scale
interdisciplinary and public-private collaborations that will
be required to advance trustworthy artificial intelligence
systems in the United States.
(8) The United States education pipeline for artificial
intelligence fields faces significant challenges. Not only does
the artificial intelligence research field lack the gender and
racial diversity of the American population as a whole, but it
is failing to both retain researchers and adequately support
educators to meet the demands of the next generation of
students studying artificial intelligence.
(9) In order to help drive forward advances in trustworthy
artificial intelligence across all sectors and to the benefit
of all Americans, the Federal Government must provide
sufficient resources and use its convening power to facilitate
the growth of artificial intelligence human capital, research,
and innovation capacity in academia and other nonprofit
research organizations, companies of all sizes and across all
sectors, and within the Federal Government.
