        (a) In General.--If the earned income of the taxpayer for the
    taxpayer's first taxable year beginning in 2020 is less than the earned
    income of the taxpayer for the preceding taxable year, the credit
    allowed under section 32 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 may, at
    the election of the taxpayer, be determined by substituting---
                (1) such earned income for the preceding taxable year, for
                (2) such earned income for the taxpayer's first taxable
            year beginning in 2020.
        (b) Earned Income.--

            taxable year.

            Revenue Code of 1986 shall be applied without regard to any
            substitution under subsection (a).
        (d) Treatment of Certain Possessions.--
                (1) Payments to possessions with mirror code tax systems.--
            The Secretary of the Treasury shall pay to each possession of
            the United States which has a mirror code tax system amounts

            application of the provisions of this section (other than this
            subsection) with respect to section 32 of the Internal Revenue
            Code of 1986. Such amounts shall be determined by the Secretary
            of the Treasury based on information provided by the government
            of the respective possession.
                (2) Payments to other possessions.--The Secretary of the
            Treasury shall pay to each possession of the United States
            which does not have a mirror code tax system amounts estimated
            by the Secretary of the Treasury as being equal to the
            aggregate benefits (if any) that would have been provided to
            residents of such possession by reason of the provisions of
            this section (other than this subsection) with respect to
            section 32 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 if a mirror
            code tax system had been in effect in such possession. The

            possession has a plan, which has been approved by the Secretary
            of the Treasury, under which such possession will promptly
            distribute such payments to its residents.

            possession of the United States, the income tax system of such
            possession if the income tax liability of the residents of such
            possession under such system is determined by reference to the
            income tax laws of the United States as if such possession were
            the United States.
                (4) Treatment of payments.--For purposes of section 1324 of
            title 31, United States Code, the payments under this section
            shall be treated in the same manner as a refund due from a

        (c) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that a State
    should prioritize making payments under the State plan of the State
    under title XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396 et seq.) (or

    higher share of COVID-19 patients relative to other such hospitals in

    end on or before February 28, 2021.
        (b) Approval of Extension.--Upon request by a State, the Secretary
    of Health and Human Services shall approve an extension of the waiver
    and expenditure authorities for a demonstration project described in

        (c) Extension Terms and Conditions.--(1) The approval pursuant to
    this section shall extend the terms and conditions that applied to the
    demonstration project to the extension period. Financial terms and
    conditions shall continue at levels equivalent to the prior
    demonstration or program year. All demonstration program components
    shall be extended to operate through the end of the extension term. In
    its request for an extension, the State shall identify operational and
    programmatic changes necessary to continue and stabilize programs into
    the extension period and shall work with the Secretary of Health and
    Human Services to implement such changes.
        (2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the State may request, and the
    Secretary of Health and Human Services may approve, modifications to a
    demonstration project's terms and conditions to address the impact of
    the federally designated public health emergency with respect to COVID-
    19. Such modifications may, at the option of the State, become
    effective retroactive to the start of the calendar quarter in which the
    first day of the emergency period described in paragraph (1)(B) of

        (e) Expedited Application Process.--The Federal and State public
    notice and comment procedures or other time constraints otherwise
    applicable to demonstration project amendments shall be waived to
    expedite a State's extension request pursuant to this section. The
    Secretary of Health and Human Services shall approve the extension
    application within 45 days of a State's submission of its request, or
    such other timeframe as is mutually agreed to with the State.
        (f) Continuation of Secretarial Authority Under Declared
    Emergency.--This section does not restrict the Secretary of Health and
    Human Services from exercising existing flexibilities through
    demonstration projects operated pursuant to section 1115 of the Social
    Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1315) in conjunction with the COVID-19 public
    health emergency.
        (g) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this section shall authorize
    the Secretary of Health and Human Service to approve or extend a waiver
    that fails to meet the requirements of section 1115 of the Social
    Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1315).

            report on coverage under the Medicaid program under title XIX
            of the Social Security Act of nonemergency transportation to

                    transportation, that State Medicaid Fraud Control Units
                    have investigated in recent years.
                        (D) Identification of commonalities or trends in
                    program integrity, with respect to such coverage, to

                    leading practices for improving Medicaid program
                    integrity, with respect to coverage of nonemergency

                            Social Security Act which the Secretary of
                            Health and Human Services determines requires

                  FORECLOSURES.

        (a) Eviction Moratorium.--The CARES Act is amended by striking
    section 4024 (15 U.S.C. 9058; Public Law 116-136; 134 Stat. 492) and
    inserting the following new section:

    ``SEC. 4024. TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON EVICTION FILINGS.

            percent of households in the United States--more than 43
            million households--are renters;
                ``(2) in 2019 alone, renters in the United States paid $512
            billion in rent;
                ``(3) according to the Joint Center for Housing Studies of
            Harvard University, 20.8 million renters in the United States
            spent more than 30 percent of their incomes on housing in 2018
            and 10.9 million renters spent more than 50 percent of their
            incomes on housing in the same year;

            considered a global pandemic, are expected to negatively impact

                ``(6) evictions in the current environment would increase
            homelessness and housing instability which would be
            counterproductive towards the public health goals of keeping
            individuals in their homes to the greatest extent possible.
        ``(b) Moratorium.--During the period beginning on the date of the
    enactment of this Act and ending 12 months after such date of
    enactment, the lessor of a covered dwelling located in such State may
    not make, or cause to be made, any filing with the court of

                    Law 115-334) legalized hemp by removing it from the
                    definition of ``marihuana'' under the Controlled
                    Substances Act;
                        (B) despite the legalization of hemp, some hemp
                    businesses (including producers, manufacturers, and
                    retailers) continue to have difficulty gaining access
                    to banking products and services; and
                        (C) businesses involved in the sale of hemp-derived
                    cannabidiol (``CBD'') products are particularly
                    affected, due to confusion about their legal status.
                (2) Federal banking regulator hemp banking guidance.--Not
            later than the end of the 90-day period beginning on the date
            of enactment of this Act, the Federal banking regulators shall
            jointly issue guidance to financial institutions--
                        (A) confirming the legality of hemp, hemp-derived
                    CBD products, and other hemp-derived cannabinoid
                    products, and the legality of engaging in financial
                    services with businesses selling hemp, hemp-derived CBD
                    products, and other hemp-derived cannabinoid products,
                    after the enactment of the Agriculture Improvement Act
                    of 2018; and
                        (B) to provide recommended best practices for
                    financial institutions to follow when providing
                    financial services and merchant processing services to
                    businesses involved in the sale of hemp, hemp-derived
                    CBD products, and other hemp-derived cannabinoid
                    products.

            (j)) shall apply to hemp (including hemp-derived cannabidiol
            and other hemp-derived cannabinoid products) in the same manner
            as such provisions apply to cannabis.
                (2) Rule of application.--In applying the provisions of
            this section described under paragraph (1) to hemp, the
            definition of ``cannabis-related legitimate business'' shall be
            treated as excluding any requirement to engage in activity
            pursuant to the law of a State or political subdivision
            thereof.
                (3) Hemp defined.--In this subsection, the term ``hemp''
            has the meaning given that term under section 297A of the
            Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1639o).

                        (A) In general.--An appropriate Federal banking

                    a depository institution to terminate a specific
                    customer account or group of customer accounts or to
                    otherwise restrict or discourage a depository
                    institution from entering into or maintaining a banking
                    relationship with a specific customer or group of
                    customers unless--
                                (i) the agency has a valid reason for such
                            request or order; and
                                (ii) such reason is not based solely on
                            reputation risk.
                        (B) Treatment of national security threats.--If an
                    appropriate Federal banking agency believes a specific
                    customer or group of customers is, or is acting as a
                    conduit for, an entity which--

    Act''.

    SEC. 130102. PREVENTION OF PRICE GOUGING.

        (a) In General.--For the duration of a public health emergency
    declared pursuant to section 319 of the Public Health Service Act (42
    U.S.C. 247d) as a result of confirmed cases of 2019 novel coronavirus
    (COVID-19), including any renewal thereof, it shall be unlawful for any
    person to sell or offer for sale a good or service at a price that--
                (1) is unconscionably excessive; and
                (2) indicates the seller is using the circumstances related
            to such public health emergency to increase prices
            unreasonably.
        (b) Factors for Consideration.--In determining whether a person has
    violated subsection (a), there shall be taken into account, with
    respect to the price at which such person sold or offered for sale the
    good or service, factors that include the following:
                (1) Whether such price grossly exceeds the average price at
            which the same or a similar good or service was sold or offered
            for sale by such person--
                        (A) during the 90-day period immediately preceding
                    January 31, 2020; or
                        (B) during the period that is 45 days before or
                    after the date that is one year before the date such
                    good or service is sold or offered for sale under
                    subsection (a).
                (2) Whether such price grossly exceeds the average price at
            which the same or a similar good or service was readily
            obtainable from other similarly situated competing sellers
            before January 31, 2020.
                (3) Whether such price reasonably reflects additional
            costs, not within the control of such person, that were paid,
            incurred, or reasonably anticipated by such person, or
            reasonably reflects the profitability of forgone sales or
            additional risks taken by such person, to produce, distribute,
            obtain, or sell such good or service under the circumstances.
        (c) Enforcement.--

                        (A) Unfair or deceptive acts or practices.--A

                    the Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C.

                        (B) Powers of commission.--The Commission shall
                    enforce subsection (a) in the same manner, by the same
                    means, and with the same jurisdiction, powers, and
                    duties as though all applicable terms and provisions of
                    the Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C. 41 et seq.)
                    were incorporated into and made a part of this section.

                    notice of any action under subparagraph (A) to the
                    Commission and provide the Commission with a copy of
                    the complaint in the action, except in any case in

                (1) Emergency broadband benefit.--During an emergency
            period, a provider shall provide an eligible household with an
            internet service offering, upon request by a member of such
            household. Such provider shall discount the price charged to
            such household for such internet service offering in an amount
            equal to the emergency broadband benefit for such household.
                (2) Verification of eligibility.--To verify whether a
            household is an eligible household, a provider shall either--
                        (A) use the National Lifeline Eligibility Verifier;

                        (B) rely upon an alternative verification process
                    of the provider, if the Commission finds such process
                    to be sufficient to avoid waste, fraud, and abuse.

            Commission shall--
                        (A) expedite the ability of all providers to access
                    the National Lifeline Eligibility Verifier for purposes
                    of determining whether a household is an eligible
                    household; and

                    after the date of the submission of information
                    necessary to determine if such household is an eligible
                    household.
                (4) Extension of emergency period.--An emergency period may
            be extended within a State or any portion thereof if the State,

            written, public notice to the Commission stipulating that an
            extension is necessary in furtherance of the recovery related
            to COVID-19. The Commission shall, within 48 hours after
            receiving such notice, post the notice on the public website of
            the Commission.

            Connectivity Fund established in subsection (h), the Commission
            shall reimburse a provider in an amount equal to the emergency
            broadband benefit with respect to an eligible household that
            receives such benefit from such provider.
                (6) Reimbursement for connected device.--A provider that,
            in addition to providing the emergency broadband benefit to an

            Broadband Connectivity Fund established in subsection (h) for
            such connected device, if the charge to such eligible household
            is more than $10 but less than $50 for such connected device,
            except that a provider may receive reimbursement for no more
            than one connected device per eligible household.
                (7) No retroactive reimbursement.--A provider may not
            receive a reimbursement from the Emergency Broadband
            Connectivity Fund for providing an internet service offering
            discounted by the emergency broadband benefit, or for supplying
            a connected device, that was provided or supplied (as the case
            may be) before the date of the enactment of this Act.
                (8) Certification required.--To receive a reimbursement
            under paragraph (5) or (6), a provider shall certify to the

                    provider is seeking reimbursement for providing an
                    internet service offering discounted by the emergency
                    broadband benefit--
                                (i) has not been and will not be charged--
                                        (I) for such offering, if the
                                    normal rate for such offering is less

                                    emergency broadband benefit for such
                                    household; or

            Prevention, on average, there are 129 suicides per day in the
            United States.
                (2) To prevent future suicides, it is critical to
            transition the cumbersome, existing 10-digit National Suicide
            Hotline to a universal, easy-to-remember, 3-digit phone number
            and connect people in crisis with life-saving resources.
                (3) It is essential that people in the United States have
            access to a 3-digit national suicide hotline across all
            geographic locations.
                (4) The designated suicide hotline number will need to be
            both familiar and recognizable to all people in the United
            States.

            and Mental Health Services Administration to offer, support, or
            provide technical assistance to training programs for National
            Suicide Prevention Lifeline counselors to increase competency
            in serving LGBTQ youth and other high risk populations; and

     TITLE VII--COVID-19 COMPASSION AND MARTHA WRIGHT PRISON PHONE JUSTICE

    SEC. 130701. FINDINGS.

        Congress finds the following:
                (1) Prison, jails, and other confinement facilities in the
            United States have unique telecommunications needs due to
            safety and security concerns.
                (2) Unjust and unreasonable charges for telephone and
            advanced communications services in confinement facilities
            negatively impact the safety and security of communities in the
            United States by damaging relationships between incarcerated
            persons and their support systems, thereby exacerbating
            recidivism.
                (3) The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly intensified these
            concerns. Jails and prisons have become epicenters for the
            spread of the virus, with incarcerated persons concentrated in
            small, confined spaces and often without access to adequate
            health care. At Cook County jail alone, hundreds of
            incarcerated persons and jail staff have tested positive for
            the virus since its outbreak.
                (4) To prevent the spread of the virus, many jails and
            prisons across the country suspended public visitation, leaving
            confinement facility communications services as the only way
            that incarcerated persons can stay in touch with their
            families.
                (5) All people in the United States, including anyone who
            pays for confinement facility communications services, should
            have access to communications services at charges that are just
            and reasonable.
                (6) Unemployment has risen sharply as a result of the
            COVID-19 pandemic, straining the incomes of millions of
            Americans and making it even more difficult for families of
            incarcerated persons to pay the high costs of confinement
            facility communications services.
                (7) Certain markets for confinement facility communications
            services are distorted due to reverse competition, in which the
            financial interests of the entity making the buying decision
            (the confinement facility) are aligned with the seller (the
            provider of confinement facility communications services) and
            not the consumer (the incarcerated person or a member of his or
            her family). This reverse competition occurs because site
            commission payments to the confinement facility from the
            provider of confinement facility communications services are
            the chief criterion many facilities use to select their
            provider of confinement facility communications services.
                (8) Charges for confinement facility communications
            services that have been shown to be unjust and unreasonable are
            often a result of site commission payments that far exceed the
            costs incurred by the confinement facility in accommodating
            these services.
                (9) Unjust and unreasonable charges have been assessed for
            both audio and video services and for both intrastate and
            interstate communications from confinement facilities.
                (10) Though Congress enacted emergency legislation to allow
            free communications in Federal prisons during the pandemic, it
            does not cover communications to or from anyone incarcerated in
            State and local prisons or jails.
                (11) Mrs. Martha Wright-Reed led a campaign for just
            communications rates for incarcerated people for over a decade.
                (12) Mrs. Wright-Reed was the lead plaintiff in Wright v.
            Corrections Corporation of America, CA No. 00-293 (GK) (D.D.C.
            2001).
                (13) That case ultimately led to the Wright Petition at the
            Federal Communications Commission, CC Docket No. 96-128
            (November 3, 2003).
                (14) As a grandmother, Mrs. Wright-Reed was forced to
            choose between purchasing medication and communicating with her
            incarcerated grandson.
                (15) Mrs. Wright-Reed passed away on January 18, 2015,
            before fully realizing her dream of just communications rates
            for all people.

    SEC. 130702. REQUIREMENTS FOR CONFINEMENT FACILITY COMMUNICATIONS
                  SERVICES, DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND OTHER TIMES.

        (a) In General.--Section 276 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47

                    classification, or regulation that is unjust or
                    unreasonable is declared to be unlawful.
                        ``(B) Rulemaking required.--Not later than 18
                    months after the date of the enactment of this
                    subsection, the Commission shall issue rules to adopt,
                    for the provision of confinement facility
                    communications services, rates and ancillary service

                    the maximum such rates and charges that a provider of
                    confinement facility communications services may charge
                    for such services. In determining rates and charges
                    that are just and reasonable, the Commission shall
                    adopt such rates and charges based on the average
                    industry costs of providing such services using data
                    collected from providers of confinement facility
                    communications services.
                        ``(C) Biennial review.--Not less frequently than
                    every 2 years following the issuance of rules under
                    subparagraph (B), the Commission shall--
                                ``(i) determine whether the rates and

                            just and reasonable; and

                            rules so that such rate or charge is just and
                            reasonable.
                ``(2) Interim rate caps.--Until the Commission issues the
            rules required by paragraph (1)(B), a provider of confinement

        ``(d) No Obligation To Contribute.--An employer shall not be

            by mail in all subsequent Federal elections held in the State.

            required to provide to an essential worker, including through
            any retroactive payment under paragraph (3), shall not exceed--
                        (A) for an essential worker who is not a highly-
                    compensated essential worker, $10,000 reduced by
                    employer payroll taxes with respect to such premium

            same manner, and subject to the same remedies (including
            attorney's fees and costs of the action), as an action brought
            by an employee alleging a violation of section 7 or 15(a)(3),

            work employers and essential workers regarding the premium pay
            under section 102; and
                (2) 0.25 percent of such funds to implement an advertising
            campaign encouraging large essential work employers to provide

    case of State employees described in section 304(a) of the Government
    Employee Rights Act of 1991 (42 U.S.C. 2000e-16c(a)).

                       TITLE X--JABARA-HEYER NO HATE ACT

    SEC. 191001. SHORT TITLE.

        This title may be cited as the ``Jabara-Heyer National Opposition
    to Hate, Assault, and Threats to Equality Act of 2020'' or the
    ``Jabara-Heyer NO HATE Act''.

    SEC. 191002. FINDINGS.

        Congress finds the following:
                (1) The incidence of violence known as hate crimes or
            crimes motivated by bias poses a serious national problem.
                (2) According to data obtained by the Federal Bureau of
            Investigation, the incidence of such violence increased in
            2017, the most recent year for which data is available.
                (3) In 1990, Congress enacted the Hate Crime Statistics Act
            (Public Law 101-275; 28 U.S.C. 534 note) to provide the Federal
            Government, law enforcement agencies, and the public with data
            regarding the incidence of hate crime. The Hate Crimes
            Statistics Act and the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate
            Crimes Prevention Act (division E of Public Law 111-84; 123
            Stat. 2835) have enabled Federal authorities to understand and,
            where appropriate, investigate and prosecute hate crimes.
                (4) A more complete understanding of the national problem
            posed by hate crime is in the public interest and supports the
            Federal interest in eradicating bias-motivated violence
            referenced in section 249(b)(1)(C) of title 18, United States
            Code.
                (5) However, a complete understanding of the national
            problem posed by hate crimes is hindered by incomplete data
            from Federal, State, and local jurisdictions through the
            Uniform Crime Reports program authorized under section 534 of
            title 28, United States Code, and administered by the Federal
            Bureau of Investigation.
                (6) Multiple factors contribute to the provision of
            inaccurate and incomplete data regarding the incidence of hate
            crime through the Uniform Crime Reports program. A significant
            contributing factor is the quality and quantity of training
            that State and local law enforcement agencies receive on the
            identification and reporting of suspected bias-motivated
            crimes.
                (7) The problem of crimes motivated by bias is sufficiently
            serious, widespread, and interstate in nature as to warrant
            Federal financial assistance to States and local jurisdictions.
                (8) Federal financial assistance with regard to certain
            violent crimes motivated by bias enables Federal, State, and
            local authorities to work together as partners in the
            investigation and prosecution of such crimes.

                          TITLE XI--PRISONS AND JAILS

    SEC. 191101. SHORT TITLE.

        This title may be cited as the ``Pandemic Justice Response Act''.

    SEC. 191102. EMERGENCY COMMUNITY SUPERVISION ACT.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) As of the date of introduction of this Act, the novel
            coronavirus has spread to all 50 States, the District of
            Columbia, and 3 territories.
                (2) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have
            projected that between 160,000,000 and 214,000,000 people could
            be infected by the novel coronavirus in the United States over
            the course of the pandemic.
                (3) Although the United States has less than 5 percent of
            the world's population, the United States holds approximately
            21 percent of the world's prisoners and leads the world in the
            number of individuals incarcerated, with nearly 2,200,000
            people incarcerated in State and Federal prisons and local
            jails.
                (4) Studies have shown that individuals age out of crime
            starting around 25 years of age, and released individuals over
            the age of 50 have a very low recidivism rate.
                (5) According to public health experts, incarcerated
            individuals are particularly vulnerable to being gravely
            impacted by the novel corona virus pandemic because--
                        (A) they have higher rates of underlying health
                    issues than members of the general public, including
                    higher rates of respiratory disease, heart disease,
                    diabetes, obesity, HIV/AIDS, substance abuse,
                    hepatitis, and other conditions that suppress immune
                    response; and
                        (B) the close conditions and lack of access to
                    hygiene products in prisons make these institutions
                    unusually susceptible to viral pandemics.
                (6) The spread of communicable disease in the United States
            generally constitutes a serious, heightened threat to the
            safety of incarcerated individuals, and there is a serious
            threat to the general public that prisons may become incubators
            of community spread of communicable viral disease.
        (b) Definitions.--In this section:

                        (B) includes an individual described in
                    subparagraph (A) who is serving a term of imprisonment
                    for an offense committed before November 1, 1987.
                (3) National emergency relating to a communicable
            disease.--The term ``national emergency relating to a

                        (A) an emergency involving Federal primary

                    seq.) with respect to a communicable disease.
        (c) Placement of Certain Individuals in Community Supervision.--
                (1) Authority.--Except as provided in paragraph (2),
            beginning on the date on which a national emergency relating to
            a communicable disease is declared and ending on the date that
            is 60 days after such national emergency expires or is
            terminated--
                        (A) notwithstanding any other provision of law, the
                    Director of the Bureau of Prisons shall place in

                    in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons; and

                    supervision all covered individuals who are in the

                            convincing evidence, to be likely to pose a
                            specific and substantial risk of causing bodily
                            injury to or using violent force against the
                            person of another;
                                (ii) shall place in the file of each
                            individual described in clause (i)
                            documentation of such determination, including
                            the evidence used to make the determination;
                            and
                                (iii) not later than 180 days after the
                            date on which the national emergency relating
                            to a communicable disease expires, shall
                            provide a report to Congress documenting--
                                        (I) the demographic data (including
                                    race, gender, age, offense of
                                    conviction, and criminal history level)
                                    of the individuals denied placement in
                                    community supervision under clause (i);
                                    and
                                        (II) the justification for the
                                    denials described in subclause (I).
                        (B) District courts.--In carrying out paragraph
                    (1)(B), each district court of the United States--
                                (i) shall conduct an immediate and
                            expedited review of the detention orders of all
                            covered individuals in the custody and care of
                            the United States Marshals Service, which may
                            be conducted sua sponte and ex parte, without--
                                        (I) appearance by the defendant or
                                    any party; or
                                        (II) requiring a petition, motion,
                                    or other similar document to be filed;
                                (ii) may not place in community supervision
                            any individual if the court determines, after a
                            hearing and the attorney for the Government
                            shows by clear and convincing evidence based on
                            individualized facts, that detention is
                            necessary because the individual's release will
                            pose a specific and substantial risk that the
                            individual will cause bodily injury or use
                            violent force against the person of another and
                            that no conditions of release will reasonably
                            mitigate that risk;
                                (iii) in carrying out clauses (i) and (ii),
                            may--
                                        (I) rely on evidence presented in
                                    prior court proceedings; and
                                        (II) if the court determines it
                                    necessary, request additional
                                    information from the parties to make
                                    the determination.
                (3) Limitation on community supervision placement.--In
            placing covered individuals into community supervision under
            this section, the Director of the Bureau of Prisons and the
            district court of the United States for each judicial district
            shall take into account and prioritize placements that enable
            adequate social distancing, which include home confinement or
            other forms of low in-person-contact supervised release.
        (d) Limitation on Pre-trial Detention.--
                (1) No bond conditions on release.--Notwithstanding section
            3142 of title 18, United States Code, beginning on the date on
            which a national emergency relating to a communicable disease
            is declared and ending on the date that is 60 days after such
            national emergency expires or is terminated, in imposing
            conditions of release, the judicial officer may not require
            payment of cash bail, proof of ability to pay an unsecured
            bond, execution of a bail bond, a solvent surety to co-sign a
            secured or unsecured bond, or posting of real property.
                (2) Limitation.--
                        (A) In general.--Beginning on the date on which a
                    national emergency relating to a communicable disease
                    is declared and ending on the date that is 60 days
                    after such national emergency expires or is terminated,
                    at any initial appearance hearing, detention hearing,
                    hearing on a motion for pretrial release, or any other
                    hearing where the attorney for the Government is
                    seeking the detention or continued detention of any
                    individual, the judicial officer shall order the
                    pretrial release of the individual on personal
                    recognizance or on a condition or combination of
                    conditions under section 3142(c) of title 18, United
                    States Code, unless the attorney for the Government
                    shows by clear and convincing evidence based on
                    individualized facts that detention is necessary
                    because the individual's release will pose a specific
                    and substantial risk that the individual will cause
                    bodily injury or use violent force against the person
                    of another and that no conditions of release will
                    reasonably mitigate that risk.
                        (B) Required consideration of certain factors.--If
                    the judicial officer finds that the attorney for the
                    Government has made the requisite showing under
                    subparagraph (A), the judicial officer shall take into
                    consideration, in determining whether detention is
                    necessary--
                                (i) whether the individual's age or medical
                            condition renders them especially vulnerable;
                            and
                                (ii) whether detention will compromise the
                            individual's access to adequate medical
                            treatment, access to medications, or ability to
                            privately consult with counsel and meaningfully
                            prepare a defense.
                        (C) Juveniles.--
                                (i) In general.--Beginning on the date on
                            which a national emergency relating to a
                            communicable disease is declared and ending on
                            the date that is 60 days after such national
                            emergency expires or is terminated,
                            notwithstanding sections 5031 through 5035 of
                            title 18, United States Code, and except as
                            provided under clause (ii), in the case of a
                            juvenile alleged to have committed an act of
                            juvenile delinquency, the judicial officer
                            shall release the juvenile to their parent,
                            guardian, custodian, or other responsible party
                            (including the director of a shelter-care
                            facility) upon their promise to bring such
                            juvenile before the appropriate court when
                            requested by the judicial officer.
                                (ii) Exception.--A juvenile alleged to have
                            committed an act of juvenile delinquency may be
                            detained pending trial only if, at a hearing at
                            which the juvenile is represented by counsel,
                            the attorney for the Government shows by clear
                            and convincing evidence based on individualized
                            facts that detention is necessary because the
                            juvenile's release will pose a specific and
                            substantial risk that the juvenile will use
                            violent force against a reasonably identifiable
                            person and that no conditions of release will
                            reasonably mitigate that risk, except that in
                            no case may a judicial officer order the
                            detention of a juvenile if it will compromise
                            the juvenile's access to adequate medical
                            treatment, access to medications, or ability to
                            privately consult with counsel and meaningfully
                            prepare a defense.
                                (iii) Least restrictive detention.--In the
                            case that the judicial officer orders the
                            detention of a juvenile under clause (ii), the
                            judicial officer shall order the detention of
                            the juvenile in the least restrictive and
                            safest environment possible, taking the
                            national emergency relating to a communicable
                            disease into consideration.
                                (iv) Contents of detention order.--In the
                            case that the judicial officer orders the
                            detention of a juvenile under clause (ii), the
                            judicial officer shall issue a written
                            detention order that includes--
                                        (I) findings of fact;
                                        (II) the reasons for the detention;
                                        (III) a description of the risk
                                    identified under clause (ii);
                                        (IV) an explanation of why no
                                    conditions will reasonably mitigate the
                                    risk identified under clause (ii);
                                        (V) a statement that detention will
                                    not compromise the juvenile's access to
                                    adequate medical treatment, access to
                                    medications, or ability to privately
                                    consult with counsel and meaningfully
                                    prepare a defense; and
                                        (VI) a statement establishing that
                                    the detention environment is the least
                                    restrictive and safest possible in
                                    accordance with the requirement under
                                    clause (iii).
        (e) Limitation on Supervised Release.--Beginning on the date on
    which a national emergency relating to a communicable disease is
    declared and ending on the date that is 60 days after such national
    emergency expires, the Office of Probation and Pretrial Services of the
    Administrative Office of the United States Courts shall take measures
    to prevent the spread of the communicable disease among individuals
    under supervision by--
                (1) suspending the requirement that individuals determined
            to be a lower risk of reoffending, or any other individuals
            determined to be appropriate by the supervising probation
            officer, report in person to their probation or parole officer;
                (2) identifying individuals who have successfully completed
            not less than 18 months of supervision and transferring such
            individuals to administrative supervision or petitioning the
            court to terminate supervision, as appropriate; and
                (3) suspending the request for detention and imprisonment
            as a sanction for violations of probation, supervised release,
            or parole.
        (f) Prohibition.--No individual who is granted placement in
    community supervision, termination of supervision, placement on
    administrative supervision, or pre-trial release shall be re-
    incarcerated, placed on supervision or active supervision, or ordered
    detained pre-trial only as a result of the expiration of the national
    emergency relating to a communicable disease.
        (g) Prohibition on Technical Violations and Certain Mandatory
    Revocations of Probation or Supervised Release.--
                (1) Resentencing in cases of probation and supervised
            release.--
                        (A) In general.--Beginning on the date on which a
                    national emergency relating to a communicable disease
                    is declared and ending on the date that is 60 days
                    after such national emergency expires, and
                    notwithstanding section 3582(b) of title 18, United
                    States Code, a court shall order the resentencing of a
                    defendant who is serving a term of imprisonment
                    resulting from a revocation of probation, or supervised
                    release for a Grade C violation for conduct under
                    section 7B1.1(c)(3)(B) of the United States Sentencing
                    Guidelines, upon motion of the defendant.
                        (B) Resentencing.--The court shall order the
                    resentencing of a defendant described in subparagraph
                    (A) as follows:
                                (i) In the case of a revoked sentence of
                            probation, the court shall resentence the
                            defendant to probation, the duration of which
                            shall be equal to the period of time remaining
                            on the term of probation originally imposed at
                            the time the defendant was most recently placed
                            in custody, unless the court determines that
                            decreasing the length of the term of probation
                            is in the interest of justice.
                                (ii) In the case of a revoked term of
                            supervised release, the court shall continue
                            the defendant on supervised release, the
                            duration of which shall be equal to the period
                            of time the defendant had remaining on
                            supervised release when the defendant was most
                            recently placed in custody, unless the court
                            determines that decreasing the term of
                            supervised release is in the interest of
                            justice.
                (2) Resentencing in cases of parole.--
                        (A) In general.--Beginning on the date on which a
                    national emergency relating to a communicable disease
                    is declared and ending on the date that is 60 days
                    after such national emergency expires, the court shall
                    order the resentencing of a defendant who is serving a
                    term of imprisonment resulting from a technical
                    violation of the defendant's parole.

            serious, imminent injury to a reasonably identifiable person.
                (2) Sentence reduction deemed authorized.--Any sentence

                    shall promptly release all medical records in the

        Title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968
    (34 U.S.C. 10101 et seq.) is amended by adding at the end the
    following:

          ``PART OO--PANDEMIC CORRECTIONAL FACILITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE

    ``SEC. 3061. FINDINGS; PURPOSES.

        ``(a) Immediate Release of Vulnerable and Low-Risk Individuals.--
    The purpose of the grant program under section 3062 is to provide for
    the testing, initiation and transfer to treatment in the community, and
    provision of services in the community, by States and units of local
    government as they relate to preventing, detecting, and stopping the
    spread of COVID-19 in correctional facilities.
        ``(b) Pretrial Citation and Release.--
                ``(1) Findings.--Congress finds as follows:
                        ``(A) With the dramatic growth in pretrial
                    detention resulting in county and city correctional
                    facilities regularly exceeding capacity, such
                    correctional facilities may serve to rapidly increase
                    the spread of COVID-19, as facilities that hold large
                    numbers of individuals in congregant living situations
                    may promote the spread of COVID-19.
                        ``(B) While individuals arrested and processed at
                    local correctional facilities may only be held for
                    hours or days, exposure to large number of individuals
                    in holding cells and courtrooms promotes the spread of
                    COVID-19.
                        ``(C) Pretrial detainees and individuals in
                    correctional facilities are then later released into
                    the community having being exposed to COVID-19.
                ``(2) Purpose.--The purpose of the grant program under
            section 3065 is to substantially increase the use of risk-based
            citation release for all individuals who do not present a
            public safety risk.

    ``SEC. 3062. IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF VULNERABLE AND LOW-RISK INDIVIDUALS.

            exceed the number established under subsection (c).

                 Subtitle B--Global Health Security Act of 2020

    SEC. 191503. SHORT TITLE.

        This subtitle may be cited as the ``Global Health Security Act of
    2020''.

    SEC. 191504. FINDINGS.

        Congress finds the following:
                (1) In December 2009, President Obama released the National
            Strategy for Countering Biological Threats, which listed as one
            of seven objectives ``Promote global health security: Increase
            the availability of and access to knowledge and products of the
            life sciences that can help reduce the impact from outbreaks of
            infectious disease whether of natural, accidental, or
            deliberate origin''.
                (2) In February 2014, the United States and nearly 30 other
            nations launched the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) to
            address several high-priority, global infectious disease
            threats. The GHSA is a multi-faceted, multi-country initiative
            intended to accelerate partner countries' measurable
            capabilities to achieve specific targets to prevent, detect,
            and respond to infectious disease threats, whether naturally
            occurring, deliberate, or accidental.
                (3) In 2015, the United Nations adopted the Sustainable
            Development Goals (SDGs), which include specific reference to
            the importance of global health security as part of SDG 3
            ``ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all
            ages'' as follows: ``strengthen the capacity of all countries,
            in particular developing countries, for early warning, risk
            reduction and management of national and global health risks''.
                (4) On November 4, 2016, President Obama signed Executive
            Order 13747, ``Advancing the Global Health Security Agenda to
            Achieve a World Safe and Secure from Infectious Disease
            Threats''.
                (5) In October 2017 at the GHSA Ministerial Meeting in
            Uganda, the United States and more than 40 GHSA member
            countries supported the ``Kampala Declaration'' to extend the
            GHSA for an additional 5 years to 2024.
                (6) In December 2017, President Trump released the National
            Security Strategy, which includes the priority action: ``Detect
            and contain biothreats at their source: We will work with other
            countries to detect and mitigate outbreaks early to prevent the
            spread of disease. We will encourage other countries to invest
            in basic health care systems and to strengthen global health
            security across the intersection of human and animal health to
            prevent infectious disease outbreaks''.
                (7) In September 2018, President Trump released the
            National Biodefense Strategy, which includes objectives to
            ``strengthen global health security capacities to prevent local
            bioincidents from becoming epidemics'', and ``strengthen
            international preparedness to support international response
            and recovery capabilities''.

    SEC. 191505. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

        It is the policy of the United States to--
                (1) promote global health security as a core national
            security interest;
                (2) advance the aims of the Global Health Security Agenda;
                (3) collaborate with other countries to detect and mitigate
            outbreaks early to prevent the spread of disease;
                (4) encourage other countries to invest in basic resilient
            and sustainable health care systems; and
                (5) strengthen global health security across the
            intersection of human and animal health to prevent infectious
            disease outbreaks and combat the growing threat of
            antimicrobial resistance.

    SEC. 191506. GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY AGENDA INTERAGENCY REVIEW COUNCIL.

        (a) Establishment.--The President shall establish a Global Health
    Security Agenda Interagency Review Council (in this section referred to
    as the ``Council'') to perform the general responsibilities described
    in subsection (c) and the specific roles and responsibilities described
    in subsection (e).
        (b) Meetings.--The Council shall meet not less than four times per
    year to advance its mission and fulfill its responsibilities.
        (c) General Responsibilities.--The Council shall be responsible for
    the following activities:

            agencies on Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) goals,
            objectives, and implementation.
                (2) Facilitate interagency, multi-sectoral engagement to
            carry out GHSA implementation.
                (3) Provide a forum for raising and working to resolve
            interagency disagreements concerning the GHSA.
                (4)(A) Review the progress toward and work to resolve
            challenges in achieving United States commitments under the
            GHSA, including commitments to assist other countries in
            achieving the GHSA targets.
                (B) The Council shall consider, among other issues, the
            following:
                        (i) The status of United States financial
                    commitments to the GHSA in the context of commitments

                Subtitle C--Securing America From Epidemics Act

    SEC. 191513. FINDINGS.

        Congress finds the following:
                (1) Due to increasing population and population density,
            human mobility, and ecological change, emerging infectious
            diseases pose a real and growing threat to global health
            security.
                (2) While vaccines can be the most effective tools to
            protect against infectious disease, the absence of vaccines for
            a new or emerging infectious disease with epidemic potential is
            a major health security threat globally, posing catastrophic
            potential human and economic costs.
                (3) The 1918 influenza pandemic infected 500,000,000
            people, or about one-third of the world's population at the
            time, and killed 50,000,000 people--more than died in the First
            World War.
                (4) The economic cost of an outbreak can be devastating.
            The estimated global cost today, should an outbreak of the
            scale of the 1918 influenza pandemic strike, is 5 percent of
            global gross domestic product.
                (5) Even regional outbreaks can have enormous human costs
            and substantially disrupt the global economy and cripple
            regional economies. The 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa
            killed more than 11,000 and cost $2,800,000,000 in losses in
            the affected countries alone.
                (6) The ongoing novel coronavirus outbreak reflects the
            pressing need for quick and effective vaccine and
            countermeasure development.
                (7) While the need for vaccines to address emerging
            epidemic threats is acute, markets to drive the necessary
            development of vaccines to address them--a complex and
            expensive undertaking--are very often critically absent. Also
            absent are mechanisms to ensure access to those vaccines by
            those who need them when they need them.
                (8) To address this global vulnerability and the deficit of
            political commitment, institutional capacity, and funding, in
            2017, several countries and private partners launched the
            Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI). CEPI's
            mission is to stimulate, finance, and coordinate development of
            vaccines for high-priority, epidemic-potential threats in cases
            where traditional markets do not exist or cannot create
            sufficient demand.
                (9) Through funding of partnerships, CEPI seeks to bring
            priority vaccines candidates through the end of phase II
            clinical trials, as well as support vaccine platforms that can
            be rapidly deployed against emerging pathogens.
                (10) CEPI has funded multiple partners to develop vaccine
            candidates against the novel coronavirus, responding to this
            urgent, global requirement.
                (11) Support for and participation in CEPI is an important
            part of the United States own health security and biodefense
            and is in the national interest, complementing the work of many
            Federal agencies and providing significant value through global
            partnership and burden-sharing.
