    SEC. 530. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING WOMEN INVOLUNTARILY SEPARATED
                  FROM THE ARMED FORCES DUE TO PREGNANCY OR PARENTHOOD.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) In June 1948, Congress enacted the Women's Armed
            Services Integration Act of 1948, which formally authorized the
            appointment and enlistment of women in the regular components
            of the Armed Forces.
                (2) With the expansion of the Armed Forces to include
            women, the possibility arose for the first time that members of
            the regular components of the Armed Forces could become
            pregnant.
                (3) The response to such possibilities and actualities was
            Executive Order 10240, signed by President Harry S. Truman in
            1951, which granted the Armed Forces the authority to
            involuntarily separate or discharge a woman if she became
            pregnant, gave birth to a child, or became a parent by adoption
            or a stepparent.
                (4) The Armed Forces responded to the Executive order by
            systematically discharging any woman in the Armed Forces who
            became pregnant.
                (5) The Armed Forces were required to offer women who were
            involuntarily separated or discharged due to pregnancy the
            opportunity to request retention in the military.
                (6) The Armed Forces may not have provided required
            separation benefits, counseling, or assistance to the members
            of the Armed Forces who were separated or discharged due to
            pregnancy.
                (7) Thousands of members of the Armed Forces were
            involuntarily separated or discharged from the Armed Forces as
            a result of pregnancy.
                (8) Such involuntary separation or discharge from the Armed
            Forces on the basis of pregnancy was challenged in Federal
            district court by Stephanie Crawford in 1975, whose legal
            argument stated that this practice violated her constitutional
            right to due process of law.
                (9) The Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled in
            Stephanie Crawford's favor in 1976 and found that Executive
            Order 10240 and any regulations relating to the Armed Forces
            that made separation or discharge mandatory due to pregnancy
            were unconstitutional.
                (10) By 1976, all regulations that permitted involuntary
            separation or discharge of a member of the Armed Forces because
            of pregnancy or any form of parenthood were rescinded.
                (11) Today, women comprise 17 percent of the Armed Forces,
            and many are parents, including 12 percent of whom are single
            parents.
                (12) While military parents face many hardships, today's
            Armed Forces provide various lengths of paid family leave for
            mothers and fathers, for both birth and adoption of children.
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that women who
    served in the Armed Forces before February 23, 1976, should not have
    been involuntarily separated or discharged due to pregnancy or
    parenthood.

                        (A) exempting the proposed Space Component from the
                    existing ``up or out'' system of officer career
                    advancement first established by the amendments to
                    title 10, United States Code, made by the Defense
                    Officer Personnel Management Act (Public Law 96-513; 94
                    Stat. 2835);
                        (B) combining active and reserve components in a
                    new, single Space Component and whether a similar
                    outcome could be achieved using the existing active and
                    reserve component frameworks with modest statutory
                    changes to allow reserve officers to serve on sustained
                    active duty; and
                        (C) creating career flexibility for reserve members
                    of the Space Component, including in shifting
                    retirement points earned from one year to the next and
                    allowing members of the Space Component to move back
                    and forth between active and reserve status for
                    prolonged periods of time across a career.
                (5) An assessment of the implications of the proposed
            reorganization of the Space Force on the development of space
            as a warfighting domain in the profession of arms, particularly
            with respect to officer leadership, development, and
            stewardship of the profession.
                (6) A determination of whether existing government ethics
            regulations are adequate to address potential conflicts of
            interest for Space Component officers who seek to move back and
            forth between sustained active duty and working for private
            sector organizations in the space industry as reserve officers
            in the Space Component.
                (7) An analysis of the following:
                        (A) Whether the proposed Space Component framework
                    is consistent with the joint service requirements of
                    chapter 38 of title 10, United States Code.
                        (B) Budgetary implications of the establishment of
                    the Space Component.
                        (C) The nature of the relationship with private
                    industry and civilian employers that would be required
                    and consistent with professional ethics to successfully
                    implement the Space Component.
                        (D) The effect of establishing a Space Component on
                    diversity and inclusion within the Space Force.

                    Department of Defense, particularly those persons with
                    specialized experience or training; and

                    associated with the potential for violations of ethical

                    associated with the potential for such violations at
                    other Federal agencies, and an analysis of whether
                    ethical standards that are applied exclusively to
                    Department of Defense personnel are justified.
                        (C) An examination of how covered ethics

                    referred to in subparagraphs (B) and (C) of paragraph

                    Defense to detect, deter, prevent, and redress
                    violations of ethical standards, including conflicts of
                    interest, by Department of Defense personnel.

    SEC. 1247. OVERSIGHT OF UNITED STATES ASSISTANCE TO UKRAINE.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) continued assistance to Ukraine as it fights against
            the unjust and unprovoked attack by Russia is of critical
            importance to United States national security interests, and
            oversight and transparency for such assistance is essential to
            ensure effective and sustained support;
                (2) the executive branch has established the interagency
            Ukraine Oversight Working Group, which focuses on conducting
            comprehensive oversight, and issued the interagency U.S. Plan
            to Counter Illicit Diversion of Certain Advanced Conventional
            Weapons in Eastern Europe, a whole-of-government effort to
            advance accountability and end-use monitoring of weapons
            provided in response to the Ukraine crisis, and continued
            attention and regular briefings to relevant congressional
            oversight committees on such efforts is imperative;
                (3) each United States department and agency providing or
            facilitating assistance to Ukraine should continue to implement
            and institutionalize appropriate transparency, accountability,
            and end-use monitoring measures, including exploring creative
            approaches to overcoming the challenges associated with
            delivering assistance during an active armed conflict, as is
            detailed in the interagency Plan to Counter Illicit Diversion;
                (4) Inspectors General must continue to carry out
            comprehensive oversight and conduct reviews, audits,
            investigations, and inspections of United States support and
            activities carried out in response to Russia's further invasion
            of Ukraine, and provide regular briefings to the appropriate
            congressional committees on their findings;
                (5) the United States and its allies and partners should
            continue to support Ukrainian anti-corruption institutions and
            e-platforms, including the National Agency for Corruption
            Prevention, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, and
            the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, in their
            work to ensure effective assistance delivery and prevent
            incidents of waste, fraud, and abuse; and
                (6) Ukrainian authorities should also continue to establish
            new transparency, accountability, and end-use monitoring
            initiatives both independently and in partnership with relevant
            United States departments and agencies and other international
            partners, and the United States should continue to work with
            counterparts in Ukraine and other countries supporting their
            efforts to further mutual efforts to strengthen and
            institutionalize accountability measures and mechanisms.
        (b) Report.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than April 1, 2023, the
            Inspector General of the Department of Defense, in conjunction
            with the Inspector General of the Department of State and the
            Inspector General of the United States Agency for International
            Development and in consultation with other Inspectors General

    SEC. 1272. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NATO AND UNITED STATES DEFENSE POSTURE
                  IN EUROPE.

        It is the sense of Congress as follows:
                (1) The Russian Federation's further invasion of Ukraine
            poses a grave threat to United States security and interests
            around the globe and to the rules-based international order,
            including the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
                (2) The Russian Federation has demonstrated a complete
            disregard for the safety of civilians during its unlawful and
            unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, which has involved
            indiscriminate bombing of civilian areas and executions of
            noncombatants.
                (3) The United States stands with the people of Ukraine and
            condemns the heinous acts committed by the Russian Federation
            against them, and Congress strongly supports continued
            assistance to Ukraine to sustain its ability to repel Russian
            invasion forces and continue to retake its sovereign territory.
                (4) NATO remains the strongest and most successful military
            alliance in the world, founded on a commitment by its members
            to uphold the principles of democracy, individual liberty, and
            the rule of law. The NATO alliance has grown more robust and
            more united in response to Russia's 2022 further invasion of
            Ukraine, as allies have enhanced their deterrence and defense
            posture, and continued to send military aid to bolster
            Ukraine's defenses.
                (5) The United States--
                        (A) strongly supports the path of Sweden and
                    Finland toward NATO membership, as evidenced by the
                    overwhelming bipartisan Senate vote providing advice
                    and consent to the ratification of the Protocols of the
                    North Atlantic Treaty of 1949 on the Accession of the
                    Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden;
                        (B) urges all NATO allies who have not ratified
                    their accession to do so as soon as possible;
                        (C) reaffirms its ironclad commitment to NATO as
                    the foundation of transatlantic security and to
                    upholding its obligations under the North Atlantic
                    Treaty, including Article 5; and
                        (D) encourages NATO members to move swiftly to meet
                    their commitments made at the June 2022 NATO Summit to
                    expand NATO's multinational battle groups and enhance
                    military posture on NATO's eastern flank, and to
                    urgently continue progress on meeting their Wales
                    Pledge commitments, capability targets, contributions
                    to NATO missions and operations, and resilience
                    commitments.
                (6) America's European allies and partners have--
                        (A) made significant contributions to Ukraine's
                    defense against the Russian invasion, including
                    critical military, economic, and humanitarian aid,
                    sanctions, and export controls, to erode Russia's
                    ability to sustain its aggression; and
                        (B) welcomed millions of Ukrainian refugees forced
                    to flee their homeland.
                (7) The United States must continue to work with these
            allies and partners to sustain this support, to collectively
            reconstitute weapons stocks, and to maintain unified resolve to
            reduce threats to critical infrastructure ranging from Russia's
            weaponization of energy to China's predatory investments in
            transportation and telecommunications infrastructure.
                (8) The United States should develop and implement a long-
            term plan to adapt United States posture in Europe to the
            altered threat environment. The elevated United States posture
            currently in Europe is crucial in the current threat
            environment, and the United States posture changes announced
            during the June 2022 NATO Summit are important steps, including
            the establishment of the first permanently stationed
            headquarters in Poland, the commitment to maintain a rotational
            brigade combat team and headquarters in Romania, enhanced
            rotations to the Baltic countries, and the forward-stationing
            of two additional destroyers in Rota, Spain.
                (9) European Deterrence Initiative (EDI) investments have
            proven crucial to United States and NATO abilities to rapidly
            reinforce the European theater leading up to and during
            Russia's further invasion of Ukraine. The United States should
            continue robust investments through EDI, including further
            enhancing United States posture in Europe and maintaining a
            committed schedule of exercises with allies.
                (10) The Black Sea is critical to United States interests
            and to the security of NATO in the region, given Russia's
            unprovoked and unjustified war in Ukraine and Russia's attempts
            to directly intimidate, coerce, and otherwise influence
            countries in this region. These allies' and partners' security
            will have major consequences for broader European security and
            collective efforts to enhance Black Sea countries' defense and
            resilience capabilities are essential. In addition, the United
            States and NATO should consider adopting robust
            intergovernmental and interagency strategies for the Black Sea,
            to facilitate further collaboration among all countries in the
            region.
                (11) Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania play a critical role in
            strategic efforts to continue to deter Russia.
                (12) The United States should continue to pursue efforts
            consistent with the comprehensive, multilateral Baltic Defense
            Assessment conducted by the Department of Defense. Robust
            support to accomplish United States strategic objectives,
            including by providing continued assistance to the Baltic
            countries through security cooperation, including cooperation
            referred to as the Baltic Security Initiative pursuant to
            sections 332 and 333 of title 10, United States Code, should
            continue to be prioritized in the years to come. Specifically,
            such assistance should include the continuation of--
                        (A) enhancements to critical capabilities that will
                    strengthen Baltic security as well as strengthen NATO's
                    deterrence and defense posture, including integrated
                    air and missile defense, maritime domain awareness,
                    long-range precision fires, and command and control;
                        (B) efforts to enhance interoperability among
                    Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania and with NATO;
                        (C) infrastructure and other host-country support
                    improvements that will enhance United States and allied
                    military mobility across the region;
                        (D) efforts to improve resilience to hybrid and
                    cyber threats in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania; and
                        (E) support for planning and budgeting efforts of
                    Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania that are regionally
                    synchronized.
                (13) It is in the United States interest to support efforts
            to enhance security and stability in the Western Balkans. The
            United States should continue its efforts to work with Western
            Balkans allies and partners to build interoperability and
            support institutional reforms. The United States should also
            support those countries' efforts to resist disinformation
            campaigns, predatory investments, and other means by which
            Russia and China may seek to influence this region.
                (14) The United States should continue to work closely with
            European allies and partners to counter growing malign
            activities by the People's Republic of China across Europe, in
            the Indo-Pacific, and beyond.

                                        (VI) if the assistance broadly

                                                (aa) explicitly intended to
                                            support Somaliland; and

                                    Somaliland security forces to maintain
                                    and appropriately utilize such
                                    training, as applicable.

            consultation with the Secretary of Defense, shall conduct a
            feasibility study that--
                        (A) determines whether opportunities exist for
                    greater collaboration in the pursuit of United States
                    national security interests in the Horn of Africa, the

                    predominantly characterized by complex flow patterns
                    and alluvial fans with impermanent channels;
                        (C) the subsurface hydrogeology of the region in
                    which the wilderness areas are located is characterized
                    by--
                                (i) groundwater subject to local and
                            regional flow gradients; and
                                (ii) unconfined and artesian conditions;
                        (D) the wilderness areas are generally not suitable
                    for use or development of new water resource
                    facilities; and
                        (E) because of the unique nature and hydrology of
                    the desert land in the wilderness areas, it is possible
                    to provide for proper management and protection of the
                    wilderness areas and other values of land in ways
                    different from those used in other laws.
                (2) Statutory construction.--Nothing in this subsection--
                        (A) constitutes an express or implied reservation
                    by the United States of any water or water rights with
                    respect to the wilderness areas;
                        (B) affects any water rights in the State of Nevada
                    (including any water rights held by the United States)
                    in existence on the date of enactment of this Act;
                        (C) establishes a precedent with regard to any
                    future wilderness designations;
                        (D) affects the interpretation of, or any
                    designation made under, any other Act; or
                        (E) limits, alters, modifies, or amends any
                    interstate compact or equitable apportionment decree
                    that apportions water among and between the State of
                    Nevada and other States.
                (3) Nevada water law.--The Secretary shall follow the
            procedural and substantive requirements of Nevada State law in
            order to obtain and hold any water rights not in existence on
            the date of enactment of this Act with respect to the
            wilderness areas.
                (4) New projects.--
                        (A) Definition of water resource facility.--
                                (i) In general.--In this paragraph, the
                            term ``water resource facility'' means
                            irrigation and pumping facilities, reservoirs,
                            water conservation works, aqueducts, canals,
                            ditches, pipelines, wells, hydropower projects,
                            transmission and other ancillary facilities,
                            and other water diversion, storage, and
                            carriage structures.
                                (ii) Exclusion.--In this paragraph, the
                            term ``water resource facility'' does not
                            include wildlife guzzlers.
                        (B) Restriction on new water resource facilities.--
                    Except as otherwise provided in this section, on and
                    after the date of enactment of this Act, neither the
                    President nor any other officer, employee, or agent of
                    the United States shall fund, assist, authorize, or
                    issue a license or permit for the development of any
                    new water resource facility within a wilderness area.
        (g) Wildfire, Insects, and Disease.--In accordance with section
    4(d)(1) of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(1)), the Secretary may
    take such measures in a wilderness area as are necessary for the
    control of fire, insects, and diseases (including, as the Secretary
    determines to be appropriate, the coordination of the activities with a
    State or local agency).
        (h) Data Collection.--Subject to such terms and conditions as the
    Secretary may prescribe, nothing in this section precludes the
    installation and maintenance of hydrologic, meteorological, or
    climatological collection devices in a wilderness area, if the
    Secretary determines that the devices and access to the devices are
    essential to flood warning, flood control, or water reservoir operation
    activities.
        (i) Military Overflights.--Nothing in this section restricts or
    precludes--
                (1) low-level overflights of military aircraft over a
            wilderness area, including military overflights that can be
            seen or heard within a wilderness area;
                (2) flight testing and evaluation; or
                (3) the designation or creation of new units of special use
            airspace, or the establishment of military flight training
            routes, over a wilderness area.
        (j) Wildlife Management.--
                (1) In general.--In accordance with section 4(d)(7) of the
            Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(7)), nothing in this chapter
            affects or diminishes the jurisdiction of the State of Nevada
            with respect to fish and wildlife management, including the
            regulation of hunting, fishing, and trapping, in the wilderness
            areas.
                (2) Management activities.--In furtherance of the purposes
            and principles of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.),
            the Secretary may conduct any management activities in the
            wilderness areas that are necessary to maintain or restore fish
            and wildlife populations and the habitats to support the
            populations, if the activities are carried out--
                        (A) consistent with relevant wilderness management
                    plans; and
                        (B) in accordance with--
                                (i) the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et
                            seq.); and
                                (ii) appropriate policies, such as those
                            set forth in Appendix B of the report of the
                            Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs of
                            the House of Representatives accompanying H.R.
                            2570 of the 101st Congress (House Report 101-
                            405), including the occasional and temporary
                            use of motorized vehicles, if the use, as
                            determined by the Secretary, would promote
                            healthy, viable, and more naturally distributed
                            wildlife populations that would enhance
                            wilderness values with the minimal impact
                            necessary to reasonably accomplish those tasks.
                (3) Existing activities.--In accordance with section
            4(d)(1) of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(1)) and in
            accordance with appropriate policies such as those set forth in
            Appendix B of the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs of
            the House of Representatives accompanying H.R. 2570 of the
            101st Congress (House Report 101-405), the State may continue
            to use aircraft (including helicopters) to survey, capture,
            transplant, monitor, and provide water for wildlife
            populations.
                (4) Wildlife water development projects.--Subject to
            subsection (f), the Secretary shall authorize structures and
            facilities, including existing structures and facilities, for
            wildlife water development projects, including guzzlers, in the
            wilderness areas if--
                        (A) the structures and facilities would, as
                    determined by the Secretary, enhance wilderness values
                    by promoting healthy, viable, and more naturally
                    distributed wildlife populations; and
                        (B) the visual impacts of the structures and
                    facilities on the wilderness areas can reasonably be
                    minimized.
                (5) Hunting, fishing, and trapping.--
                        (A) In general.--The Secretary may designate areas
                    in which, and establish periods during which, for
                    reasons of public safety, administration, or compliance
                    with applicable laws, no hunting, fishing, or trapping
                    will be permitted in the wilderness areas.
                        (B) Consultation.--Except in emergencies, the
                    Secretary shall consult with the appropriate State
                    agency and notify the public before taking any action
                    under subparagraph (A).
                (6) Cooperative agreement.--
                        (A) In general.--The State of Nevada, including a
                    designee of the State, may conduct wildlife management
                    activities in the wilderness areas--
                                (i) in accordance with the terms and
                            conditions specified in the cooperative
                            agreement between the Secretary and the State

                            the Bureau of Land Management and the Nevada
                            Department of Wildlife Supplement No. 9'' and
                            signed November and December 2003, including
                            any amendments to the cooperative agreement
                            agreed to by the Secretary and the State of
                            Nevada; and
                                (ii) subject to all applicable laws
                            (including regulations).
                        (B) References.--For the purposes of this
                    subsection, any references to Clark County, Nevada, in
                    the cooperative agreement described this paragraph

    SEC. 5511. FINDINGS AND STATEMENT OF POLICY.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) Advancing peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific has
            been a central element of United States foreign policy toward
            the region.
                (2) The Government of the People's Republic of China (PRC),
            especially since the election of Tsai Ing-Wen in 2016, has
            conducted a coordinated campaign to weaken Taiwan
            diplomatically, economically, and militarily in a manner that
            threatens to erode United States policy and create a fait
            accompli on questions surrounding Taiwan's future.
                (3) To secure United States interests and preserve the
            ability of the people of Taiwan to determine their own future,
            it is necessary to reinforce Taiwan's diplomatic, economic, and
            territorial space.
        (b) Statement of Policy.--It is the policy of the United States
    to--
                (1) maintain the position that peace and stability in the
            Western Pacific are in the political, security, and economic
            interests of the United States, and are matters of
            international concern; and
                (2) work with allies and partners to promote peace and
            stability in the Indo-Pacific and deter military acts or other
            forms of coercive behavior that would undermine regional
            stability.

    SEC. 5512. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON TAIWAN DEFENSE RELATIONS.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the Taiwan Relations Act (Public Law 96-8; 22 U.S.C. et
            seq.) and the Six Assurances provided by the United States to
            Taiwan in July 1982 are the foundation for United States-Taiwan
            relations;
                (2) as set forth in the Taiwan Relations Act, the United
            States decision to establish diplomatic relations with the
            People's Republic of China rests upon the expectation that the
            future of Taiwan will be determined by peaceful means, and that
            any effort to determine the future of Taiwan by other than
            peaceful means, including boycotts and embargoes, is of grave
            concern to the United States;
                (3) the increasingly coercive and aggressive behavior of
            the People's Republic of China toward Taiwan is contrary to the
            expectation of the peaceful resolution of the future of Taiwan;

    SEC. 5514. TASK FORCE TO COUNTER ECONOMIC COERCION BY THE PEOPLE'S
                  REPUBLIC OF CHINA.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the People's Republic of China's (PRC) increasing use
            of economic coercion against foreign governments, companies,
            organizations, other entities, and individuals requires that
            the United States devise a comprehensive, effective, and
            multilateral response;
                (2) the private sector is a crucial partner in helping the
            United States Government respond to the PRC's coercive economic
            practices and hold the PRC accountable;
                (3) improved engagement and communication with the private
            sector, including receiving information from the United States
            private sector about the PRC's coercive economic practices
            would help the United States Government and private sector
            stakeholders conduct early assessments of potential pressure
            points and vulnerabilities; and
                (4) PRC coercive economic practices create pressures for
            the private sector to behave in ways antithetical to United
            States national interests and competitiveness.
        (b) Establishment of Task Force.--Not later than 180 days after the
    date of the enactment of this Act, the President shall establish an
    interagency task force to be known as the ``Countering Economic
    Coercion Task Force'' (referred to in this section as the ``Task
    Force'').
        (c) Duties.--
                (1) In general.--The Task Force shall--
                        (A) oversee the development and implementation of
                    an integrated United States Government strategy to
                    respond to People's Republic of China (PRC) coercive
                    economic practices, which shall include--
                                (i) systematically monitoring and
                            evaluating--
                                        (I) the costs of such practices on
                                    United States businesses and overall
                                    United States economic performance;
                                        (II) instances in which such
                                    practices taken against a non-PRC
                                    entity has benefitted other parties;
                                    and
                                        (III) the impacts such practices
                                    have had on United States national
                                    interests; and
                                (ii) facilitating coordination among
                            Federal departments and agencies when
                            responding to such practices as well as
                            proactively deterring such economic coercion,
                            including by clarifying the roles for Federal

                            coercive economic practices;
                        (B) consult with United States allies and partners
                    on the feasibility and desirability of collectively
                    identifying, assessing, and responding to PRC coercive
                    economic practices, as well as actions that could be
                    taken to expand coordination with the goal of ensuring
                    a consistent, coherent, and collective response to such
                    practices and establishing long-term deterrence of such
                    practices;
                        (C) effectively engage the United States private
                    sector, particularly sectors, groups, or other entities
                    that are susceptible to such PRC coercive economic
                    practices, on concerns related to such practices; and

                    sharing relevant information, including classified
                    information to the extent appropriate and practicable,
                    on such PRC coercive economic practices with United
                    States allies, partners, and the private sector.
                (2) Consultation.--In carrying out its duties under this
            subsection, the Task Force should regularly consult, to the

           PART 3--INCLUSION OF TAIWAN IN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS

    SEC. 5516. FINDINGS.

        Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) Since 2016, the Gambia, Sao Tome and Principe, Panama,
            the Dominican Republic, Burkina Faso, El Salvador, the Solomon
            Islands, and Kiribati have severed diplomatic relations with
            Taiwan in favor of diplomatic relations with China.
                (2) Taiwan was invited to participate in the World Health
            Assembly (WHA), the decision-making body of the World Health
            Organization (WHO), as an observer annually between 2009 and
            2016. Since the 2016 election of President Tsai, the PRC has
            increasingly resisted Taiwan's participation in the WHA. Taiwan
            was not invited to attend the WHA in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, or
            2021.
                (3) The Taipei Flight Information Region reportedly served
            1,750,000 flights and 68,900,000 passengers in 2018, and is
            home to Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, the eleventh
            busiest airport in the world. Taiwan has been excluded from
            participating at the International Civil Aviation Organization
            (ICAO) since 2013.
                (4) United Nations (UN) General Assembly Resolution 2758
            does not address the issue of representation of Taiwan and its
            people at the United Nations, nor does it give the PRC the
            right to represent the people of Taiwan.

    SEC. 5517. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON TAIWAN'S MEANINGFUL PARTICIPATION IN
                  THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) Taiwan is an important contributor to the global
            community, as a model for democracy, and by providing expertise
            in global health, international aviation security, emerging
            technology development, and high environmental standards;
                (2) multiple United States Government administrations of
            both political parties have taken important steps to advance
            Taiwan's meaningful participation in international
            organizations;
                (3) existing efforts to enhance United States cooperation
            with Taiwan to provide global public goods, including through
            development assistance, humanitarian assistance, and disaster
            relief, in trilateral and multilateral fora are laudable and
            should continue;
                (4) nonetheless, significant structural, policy, and legal
            barriers remain to advancing Taiwan's meaningful participation
            in the international community; and
                (5) efforts to share Taiwan's expertise with other parts of
            the global community could be further enhanced through a
            systematic approach, along with greater attention from Congress
            and the American public to such efforts.

    SEC. 5518. STRATEGY TO SUPPORT TAIWAN'S MEANINGFUL PARTICIPATION IN
                  INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS.

        (a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
    enactment of this Act, the Secretary of State, in consultation with
    other Federal departments and agencies as appropriate, shall submit to
    the appropriate congressional committees a strategy--
                (1) to advance Taiwan''s meaningful participation in a
            prioritized set of international organizations (IOs); and
                (2) that responds to growing pressure from the PRC on
            foreign governments, IOs, commercial actors, and civil society
            organizations to comply with its ``One-China Principle'', with
            respect to Taiwan.
        (b) Matters to Be Included.--The strategy required under subsection
    (a) should include the following elements:
                (1) An assessment of the methods the PRC uses to coerce
            actors to into adhering to its ``One-China Principle.'' The
            methods should include those employed against governments, IOs,
            and civil society organizations. The assessment should also
            include pressure on commercial actors, to the extent it is
            relevant in the context of Taiwan's meaningful participation in
            IOs.
                (2) An assessment of the policies of foreign governments
            toward the PRC and Taiwan, to identify likeminded allies and
            partners who might become public or private partners in the
            strategy.
                (3) A systematic analysis of all IOs, as practicable, to

    SEC. 5519. MEANINGFUL PARTICIPATION OF TAIWAN IN THE INTERNATIONAL
                  CIVIL AVIATION ORGANIZATION.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)
            should allow Taiwan to meaningfully participate in the
            organization, including in ICAO triennial assembly sessions,
            conferences, technical working groups, meetings, activities,
            and mechanisms;
                (2) Taiwan is a global leader and hub for international
            aviation, with a range of expertise, information, and resources
            and the fifth busiest airport in Asia (Taoyuan International
            Airport), and its meaningful participation in ICAO would
            significantly enhance the ability of ICAO to ensure the safety
            and security of global aviation; and
                (3) coercion by the Chinese Communist Party and the
            People's Republic of China has ensured the systematic exclusion
            of Taiwan from meaningful participation in ICAO, significantly
            undermining the ability of ICAO to ensure the safety and
            security of global aviation.
        (b) Plan for Taiwan's Meaningful Participation in the International
    Civil Aviation Organization.--The Secretary of State, in coordination
    with the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of Transportation, is
    authorized--
                (1) to initiate a United States plan to secure Taiwan's
            meaningful participation in ICAO, including in ICAO triennial
            assembly sessions, conferences, technical working groups,
            meetings, activities, and mechanisms; and
                (2) to instruct the United States representative to the
            ICAO to--
                        (A) use the voice and vote of the United States to
                    ensure Taiwan's meaningful participation in ICAO,
                    including in ICAO triennial assembly sessions,
                    conferences, technical working groups, meetings,
                    activities, and mechanisms; and
                        (B) seek to secure a vote at the next ICAO
                    triennial assembly session on the question of Taiwan's
                    participation in that session.
        (c) Report Concerning Taiwan's Meaningful Participation in the
    International Civil Aviation Organization.--Not later than 90 days
    after the date of the enactment of this Act, and not later than April 1
    of each year thereafter for the following 6 years, the Secretary of
    State, in coordination with the Secretary of Commerce, shall submit to
    the Committee on Foreign Relations and the Committee on Commerce,
    Science, and Transportation of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign
    Affairs, the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, and the
    Committee on Energy and Commerce of the House of Representatives an
    unclassified report that--
                (1) describes the United States plan to ensure Taiwan's
            meaningful participation in ICAO, including in ICAO triennial
            assembly sessions, conferences, technical working groups,
            meetings, activities, and mechanisms;
                (2) includes an account of the efforts made by the
            Secretary of State and the Secretary of Commerce to ensure
            Taiwan's meaningful participation in ICAO, including in ICAO
            triennial assembly sessions, conferences, technical working
            groups, meetings, activities, and mechanisms; and
                (3) identifies the steps the Secretary of State and the
            Secretary of Commerce will take in the next year to ensure
            Taiwan's meaningful participation in ICAO, including in ICAO
            triennial assembly sessions, conferences, technical working
            groups, meetings, activities, and mechanisms.

            and
                (3) the United States should explore opportunities to
            expand economic agreements between Taiwan and the United

            required to support potential future agreements.

    PART 5--SUPPORTING UNITED STATES EDUCATIONAL AND EXCHANGE PROGRAMS WITH
                                     TAIWAN

    SEC. 5526. SHORT TITLE.

        This part may be cited as the ``Taiwan Fellowship Act''.

    SEC. 5527. FINDINGS.

        Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The Taiwan Relations Act (Public Law 96-8; 22 U.S.C.
            3301 et seq.) affirmed United States policy ``to preserve and
            promote extensive, close, and friendly commercial, cultural,
            and other relations between the people of the United States and
            the people on Taiwan, as well as the people on the China
            mainland and all other peoples of the Western Pacific area''.
                (2) Consistent with the Asia Reassurance Initiative Act of
            2018 (Public Law 115-409), the United States has grown its
            strategic partnership with Taiwan's vibrant democracy of
            23,000,000 people.
                (3) The creation of a United States fellowship program with
            Taiwan would support--
                        (A) a key priority of expanding people-to-people
                    exchanges, which was outlined in President Donald J.
                    Trump's 2017 National Security Strategy;
                        (B) President Joseph R. Biden's commitment to
                    Taiwan, ``a leading democracy and a critical economic
                    and security partner'', as expressed in his March 2021
                    Interim National Security Strategic Guidance; and
                        (C) April 2021 guidance from the Department of
                    State based on a review required under the Taiwan
                    Assurance Act of 2020 (subtitle B of title III of
                    division FF of Public Law 116-260) to ``encourage U.S.
                    government engagement with Taiwan that reflects our
                    deepening unofficial relationship''.

    SEC. 5528. PURPOSES.

        The purposes of this part are--
                (1) to further strengthen the United States-Taiwan
            strategic partnership and broaden understanding of the Indo-
            Pacific region by temporarily assigning officials of any
            agencies of the United States Government to Taiwan for
            intensive study in Mandarin and placement as Fellows in a
            Taiwanese civic institution;
                (2) to provide for eligible United States personnel--
                        (A) to learn or strengthen Mandarin Chinese
                    language skills; and
                        (B) to expand their understanding of the political
                    economy of Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific region; and
                (3) to better position the United States to advance its
            economic, security, and human rights interests and values in
            the Indo-Pacific region.

            other key stakeholders to establish or strengthen effective
            early warning systems, at the partner country, regional, and

            effectively operationalize early warning and execute multi-
            sectoral emergency operations during an infectious disease
            outbreak, particularly in countries and areas that deliberately
            withhold critical global health data and delay access during an
            infectious disease outbreak, in advance of the next infectious
            disease outbreak with pandemic potential.
                (2) Public health emergencies of international concern.--
            The Secretary of Health and Human Services, in coordination
            with the Secretary of State, should work with the World Health

            toward assessing infectious disease threats under the
            International Health Regulations (2005) for the World Health
            Organization to identify and transparently communicate, on an
            ongoing basis, varying levels of risk leading up to a
            declaration by the Director General of the World Health
            Organization of a Public Health Emergency of International
            Concern for the duration and in the aftermath of such
            declaration.
                (3) Emergency operations.--The Secretary of Health and
            Human Services, in coordination with the Secretary of State,
            the Administrator of the USAID, the Director of the Centers for
            Disease Control and Prevention, and the heads of other relevant
            Federal departments and agencies and consistent with the
            requirements under the International Health Regulations (2005)
            and the objectives of the World Health Organization's Health
            Emergencies Programme, the Global Health Security Agenda, and
            national actions plans for health security, should work, in
            cooperation with the World Health Organization, with partner
            countries, and other key stakeholders, to support the
            establishment, strengthening, and rapid response capacity of
            global health emergency operations centers, at the partner
            country and international levels, including efforts--
                        (A) to collect and share de-identified public
                    health data, assess risk, and operationalize early
                    warning;
                        (B) to secure, including through utilization of
                    stand-by arrangements and emergency funding mechanisms,
                    the staff, systems, and resources necessary to execute
                    cross-sectoral emergency operations during the 48-hour
                    period immediately following an infectious disease
                    outbreak with pandemic potential; and
                        (C) to organize and conduct emergency simulations.

                (2) Sense of congress on corruption.--It is the sense of

                    cycle.
                (4) Exemption from duties and taxes.--The FIF
            Representative should seek to ensure that the Fund adopts rules
            that condition grants upon agreement by the relevant national
            authorities in an eligible partner country to exempt from
            duties and taxes all products financed by such grants,
            including procurements by any principal or subrecipient for the

                    exceeds the salary of the Vice President of the United
                    States for such fiscal year, the United States should

                    year an amount equal to the aggregate difference
                    between the 2 salaries.

    States.
        (h) Implementation; Penalties.--
                (1) Implementation.--The President may exercise all
            authorities provided to the President under sections 203 and

            to the authorities under this section on the Burmese people and
            the Burmese military.

    SEC. 5572. SANCTIONS AND POLICY COORDINATION FOR BURMA.

        (a) In General.--The head of the Office of Sanctions Coordination
    in the Department of State should develop a comprehensive strategy for
    the implementation of the full range of United States diplomatic
    capabilities to implement Burma-related sanctions in order to promote
    human rights and the restoration of civilian government in Burma.
        (b) Matters to Be Included.--The strategy described in subsection
    (a) should include plans and steps to--
                (1) coordinate the sanctions policies of the United States
            with relevant bureaus and offices in the Department of State
            and other relevant United States Government agencies;
                (2) conduct relevant research and vetting of entities and
            individuals that may be subject to sanctions and coordinate
            with other United States Government agencies and international
            financial intelligence units to assist in efforts to enforce
            anti-money laundering and anti-corruption laws and regulations;
                (3) promote a comprehensive international effort to impose
            and enforce multilateral sanctions with respect to Burma;
                (4) support interagency United States Government efforts,
            including efforts of the United States Chief of Mission to
            Burma, the United States Ambassador to ASEAN, and the United
            States Permanent Representative to the United Nations, relating
            to--
                        (A) identifying opportunities to exert pressure on
                    the governments of the People's Republic of China and
                    the Russian Federation to support multilateral action
                    against the Burmese military; and
                        (B) working with like-minded partners to impose a
                    coordinated arms embargo on the Burmese military and
                    targeted sanctions on the economic interests of the
                    Burmese military, including through the introduction
                    and adoption of a United Nations Security Council
                    resolution; and
                (5) provide timely input for reporting on the impacts of
            the implementation of sanctions on the Burmese military and the
            people of Burma.

    SEC. 5573. SUPPORT FOR GREATER UNITED NATIONS ACTION WITH RESPECT TO
                  BURMA.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the United Nations Security Council has not taken
            adequate steps to condemn the February 1, 2021, coup in Burma,
            pressure the Burmese military to cease its violence against
            civilians, or secure the release of those unjustly detained;
                (2) countries, such as the People's Republic of China and
            the Russian Federation, that are directly or indirectly
            shielding the Burmese military from international scrutiny and
            action, should be obliged to endure the reputational damage of
            doing so by taking public votes on resolutions related to Burma
            that apply greater pressure on the Burmese military to restore
            Burma to its democratic path; and
                (3) the United Nations Secretariat and the United Nations
            Security Council should take concrete steps to address the coup
            and ongoing crisis in Burma consistent with United Nations
            General Assembly resolution 75/287, ``The situation in
            Myanmar,'' which was adopted on June 18, 2021.
        (b) Support for Greater Action.--The President shall direct the
    United States Permanent Representative to the United Nations to use the
    voice, vote, and influence of the United States to spur greater action
    by the United Nations and the United Nations Security Council with
    respect to Burma by--
                (1) pushing the United Nations Security Council to consider
            a resolution condemning the February 1, 2021, coup and calling
            on the Burmese military to cease its violence against the
            people of Burma and release without preconditions the
            journalists, pro-democracy activists, and political officials
            that it has unjustly detained;
                (2) pushing the United Nations Security Council to consider
            a resolution that immediately imposes a global arms embargo
            against Burma to ensure that the Burmese military is not able
            to obtain weapons and munitions from other nations to further
            harm, murder, and oppress the people of Burma;
                (3) pushing the United Nations and other United Nations
            authorities to cut off assistance to the Government of Burma
            while providing humanitarian assistance directly to the people
            of Burma through United Nations bodies and civil society
            organizations, particularly such organizations working with
            ethnic minorities that have been adversely affected by the coup
            and the Burmese military's violent crackdown; and
                (4) spurring the United Nations Security Council to
            consider multilateral sanctions against the Burmese military
            for its atrocities against Rohingya and individuals of other
            ethnic and religious minorities, its coup, and the atrocities
            it has and continues to commit in the coup's aftermath.
        (c) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the United
    States Permanent Representative to the United Nations should use the
    voice, vote, and influence of the United States to--
                (1) object to the appointment of representatives to the
            United Nations and United Nations bodies such as the Human
            Rights Council that are sanctioned by the Burmese military; and
                (2) work to ensure the Burmese military is not recognized
            as the legitimate government of Burma in any United Nations
            body.

    SEC. 5574. SUNSET.

        (a) In General.--The authority to impose sanctions and the

        (b) Certification for Early Sunset of Sanctions.--Sanctions imposed
    under this part may be removed before the date specified in subsection
    (a), if the President submits to the appropriate congressional
    committees a certification that--
                (1) the Burmese military has released all political
            prisoners taken into custody on or after February 1, 2021, or
            is providing legal recourse to those that remain in custody;
                (2) the elected government of Burma has been reinstated or
            new free and fair elections have been held;
                (3) all legal charges against those winning election in
            November 2020 are dropped; and
                (4) the 2008 constitution of Burma has been amended or
            replaced to place the Burmese military under civilian oversight
            and ensure that the Burmese military no longer automatically
            receives 25 percent of seats in Burma's state, regional, and
            national Hluttaws.
        (c) Notification for Early Sunset of Sanctions on Individuals.--
                (1) In general.--The President may terminate the
            application of sanctions under this part with respect to
            specific individuals if the President submits to the
            appropriate congressional committees--
                        (A) a notice of and justification for the
                    termination; and
                        (B) a notice that the individual is not engaging in
                    the activity or is no longer occupying the position
                    that was the basis for the sanctions or has taken
                    significant verifiable steps toward stopping the
                    activity.
                (2) Form.--The notice required by paragraph (1) shall be
            submitted in unclassified form but may include a classified
            annex.

        This subtitle may be cited as the ``Otto Warmbier Countering North
    Korean Censorship and Surveillance Act of 2022''.

    SEC. 5581. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The information landscape in North Korea is the most
            repressive in the world, consistently ranking last or near-last
            in the annual World Press Freedom Index.
                (2) Under the brutal rule of Kim Jung Un, the country's
            leader since 2012, the North Korean regime has tightened
            controls on access to information, as well as enacted harsh
            punishments for consumers of outside media, including
            sentencing to time in a concentration camp and a maximum
            penalty of death.
                (3) Such repressive and unjust laws surrounding information
            in North Korea resulted in the death of 22-year-old United
            States citizen and university student Otto Warmbier, who had
            traveled to North Korea in December 2015 as part of a guided
            tour.
                (4) Otto Warmbier was unjustly arrested, sentenced to 15
            years of hard labor, and severely mistreated at the hands of
            North Korean officials. While in captivity, Otto Warmbier
            suffered a serious medical emergency that placed him into a
            comatose state. Otto Warmbier was comatose upon his release in
            June 2017 and died 6 days later.
                (5) Despite increased penalties for possession and
            viewership of foreign media, the people of North Korean have
            increased their desire for foreign media content, according to
            a survey of 200 defectors concluding that 90 percent had
            watched South Korean or other foreign media before defecting.
                (6) On March 23, 2021, in an annual resolution, the United
            Nations General Assembly condemned ``the long-standing and
            ongoing systematic, widespread and gross violations of human
            rights in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea'' and
            expressed grave concern at, among other things, ``the denial of
            the right to freedom of thought, conscience, and religion . . .
            and of the rights to freedom of opinion, expression, and
            association, both online and offline, which is enforced through
            an absolute monopoly on information and total control over
            organized social life, and arbitrary and unlawful state
            surveillance that permeates the private lives of all
            citizens''.
                (7) In 2018, Typhoon Yutu caused extensive damage to 15
            broadcast antennas used by the United States Agency for Global
            Media in Asia, resulting in reduced programming to North Korea.
            The United States Agency for Global Media has rebuilt 5 of the
            15 antenna systems as of June 2021.
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) in the event of a crisis situation, particularly where
            information pertaining to the crisis is being actively censored
            or a false narrative is being put forward, the United States
            should be able to quickly increase its broadcasting capability
            to deliver fact-based information to audiences, including those
            in North Korea; and
                (2) the United States International Broadcasting Surge
            Capacity Fund is already authorized under section 316 of the
            United States International Broadcasting Act of 1994 (22 U.S.C.
            6216), and expanded authority to transfer unobligated balances
            from expired accounts of the United States Agency for Global
            Media would enable the Agency to more nimbly respond to crises.

    SEC. 5582. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

         It is the policy of the United States--
                (1) to provide the people of North Korea with access to a
            diverse range of fact-based information;
                (2) to develop and implement novel means of communication
            and information sharing that increase opportunities for
            audiences in North Korea to safely create, access, and share
            digital and non-digital news without fear of repressive
            censorship, surveillance, or penalties under law; and
                (3) to foster and innovate new technologies to counter
            North Korea's state-sponsored repressive surveillance and
            censorship by advancing internet freedom tools, technologies,
            and new approaches.

    SEC. 5583. UNITED STATES STRATEGY TO COMBAT NORTH KOREA'S REPRESSIVE
                  INFORMATION ENVIRONMENT.

        (a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
    enactment of this Act, the President shall develop and submit to
    Congress a strategy on combating North Korea's repressive information
    environment.
        (b) Elements.--The strategy required by subsection (a) shall
    include the following:
                (1) An assessment of the challenges to the free flow of
            information into North Korea created by the censorship and
            surveillance technology apparatus of the Government of North
            Korea.
                (2) A detailed description of the agencies and other
            government entities, key officials, and security services
            responsible for the implementation of North Korea's repressive
            laws regarding foreign media consumption.
                (3) A detailed description of the agencies and other
            government entities and key officials of foreign governments
            that assist, facilitate, or aid North Korea's repressive
            censorship and surveillance state.
                (4) A review of existing public-private partnerships that
            provide circumvention technology and an assessment of the
            feasibility and utility of new tools to increase free
            expression, circumvent censorship, and obstruct repressive
            surveillance in North Korea.
                (5) A description of and funding levels required for
            current United States Government programs and activities to
            provide access for the people of North Korea to a diverse range
            of fact-based information.
                (6) An update of the plan required by section 104(a)(7)(A)

                    Subtitle I--Sense of Congress Provisions

    SEC. 5599C. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE STATUS OF CHINA.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the People's Republic of China is a fully
            industrialized nation and no longer a developing nation; and
                (2) any international agreement that provides or accords
            China a favorable status or treatment as a ``developing
            nation'' should be updated to reflect the status of China.

    SEC. 5599D. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING ISRAEL.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) since 1948, Israel has been one of the strongest
            friends and allies of the United States;
                (2) Israel is a stable, democratic country in a region
            often marred by turmoil;
                (3) it is essential to the strategic interest of the United
            States to continue to offer security assistance and related
            support to Israel; and
                (4) such assistance and support is especially vital as
            Israel confronts a number of potential challenges at the
            present time, including continuing threats from Iran.

    SEC. 5599E. SENSE OF CONGRESS RELATING TO THE NATO PARLIAMENTARY
                  ASSEMBLY.

        It is the sense of Congress that the United States should--
                (1) proactively engage with the North Atlantic Treaty
            Organization (NATO) Parliamentary Assembly (PA) and its member
            delegations;
                (2) communicate with and educate the public on the benefits
            and importance of NATO and NATO PA; and
                (3) support increased inter-democracy and inter-
            parliamentary cooperation on countering misinformation and
            disinformation.

    SEC. 5599F. CONDEMNING DETENTION AND INDICTMENT OF RUSSIAN OPPOSITION
                  LEADER VLADIMIR VLADIMIROVICH KARA-MURZA.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) Vladimir Vladimirovich Kara-Murza (referred to in this
            section as ``Mr. Kara-Murza'') has tirelessly worked for
            decades to advance the cause of freedom, democracy, and human
            rights for the people of the Russian Federation.
                (2) In retaliation for his advocacy, two attempts have been
            made on Mr. Kara-Murza's life, as--
                        (A) on May 26, 2015, Mr. Kara-Murza fell ill with
                    symptoms indicative of poisoning and was hospitalized;
                    and
                        (B) on February 2, 2017, he fell ill with similar
                    symptoms and was placed in a medically induced coma.
                (3) Independent investigations conducted by Bellingcat, the
            Insider, and Der Spiegel found that the same unit of the
            Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation responsible
            for poisoning Mr. Kara-Murza was responsible for poisoning
            Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny and activists Timur
            Kuashev, Ruslan Magomedragimov, and Nikita Isayev.
                (4) On February 24, 2022, Vladimir Putin launched another
            unprovoked, unjustified, and illegal invasion into Ukraine in
            contravention of the obligations freely undertaken by the
            Russian Federation to respect the territorial integrity of
            Ukraine under the Budapest Memorandum of 1994, the Minsk
            protocols of 2014 and 2015, and international law.
                (5) On March 5, 2022, Vladimir Putin signed a law
            criminalizing the distribution of truthful statements about the
            invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation and mandating up
            to 15 years in prison for such offenses.
                (6) Since February 24, 2022, Mr. Kara-Murza has used his
            voice and platform to join more than 15,000 citizens of the
            Russian Federation in peacefully protesting the war against
            Ukraine and millions more who silently oppose the war.
                (7) On April 11, 2022, five police officers arrested Mr.
            Kara-Murza in front of his home and denied his right to an
            attorney, and the next day Mr. Kara-Murza was sentenced to 15
            days in prison for disobeying a police order.
                (8) On April 22, 2022, the Investigative Committee of the
            Russian Federation charged Mr. Kara-Murza with violations under
            the law signed on March 5, 2022, for his fact-based statements
            condemning the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation.
                (9) Mr. Kara-Murza was then placed into pretrial detention
            and ordered to be held until at least June 12, 2022.
                (10) If convicted of those charges, Mr. Kara-Murza faces
            detention in a penitentiary system that human rights
            nongovernmental organizations have criticized for widespread
            torture, ill-treatment, and suspicious deaths of prisoners.
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that Congress--
                (1) condemns the unjust detention and indicting of Russian
            opposition leader Vladimir Vladimirovich Kara-Murza, who has
            courageously stood up to oppression in the Russian Federation;
                (2) expresses solidarity with Vladimir Vladimirovich Kara-
            Murza, his family, and all individuals in the Russian
            Federation imprisoned for exercising their fundamental freedoms
            of speech, assembly, and belief;
                (3) urges the United States Government and other allied
            governments to work to secure the immediate release of Vladimir
            Vladimirovich Kara-Murza, Alexei Navalny, and other citizens of
            the Russian Federation imprisoned for opposing the regime of
            Vladimir Putin and the war against Ukraine; and
                (4) calls on the President to increase support provided by
            the United States Government for those advocating for democracy
            and independent media in the Russian Federation, which Vladimir
            Vladimirovich Kara-Murza has worked to advance.

    SEC. 5599G. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING DEVELOPMENT OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS
                  BY IRAN.

        Congress--
                (1) reiterates its commitment to ensuring Iran will never
            acquire a nuclear weapon;
                (2) supports the important work of the International Atomic
            Energy Agency (IAEA) in safeguarding nuclear material around
            the globe;
                (3) condemns Iran for its lack of transparency and
            meaningful cooperation with the IAEA on the unresolved matter
            of uranium particles discovered at undeclared sites in Iran and
            additional escalatory actions related to its nuclear program;
            and
                (4) applauds the IAEA Board of Governors' resolution urging
            Iran's full cooperation with the IAEA on outstanding safeguards
            issues on an urgent basis.

    SEC. 5603. PRELIMINARY DAMAGE ASSESSMENT.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) Preliminary damage assessments play a critical role in
            assessing and validating the impact and magnitude of a
            disaster.
                (2) Through the preliminary damage assessment process,
            representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency
            validate information gathered by State and local officials that
            serves as the basis for disaster assistance requests.
                (3) Various factors can impact the duration of a
            preliminary damage assessment and the corresponding submission
            of a major disaster request, however, the average time between
            when a disaster occurs, and the submission of a corresponding
            disaster request has been found to be approximately twenty days
            longer for flooding disasters.
                (4) With communities across the country facing increased
            instances of catastrophic flooding and other extreme weather
            events, accurate and efficient preliminary damage assessments
            have become critically important to the relief process for
            impacted States and municipalities.
        (b) Report to Congress.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than 90 days after the date of
            enactment of this Act, the Administrator of the Federal
            Emergency Management Agency shall submit to Congress a report
            describing the preliminary damage assessment process, as
            supported by the Federal Emergency Management Agency in the 5
            years before the date of enactment of this Act.
                (2) Contents.--The report described in paragraph (1) shall
            contain the following:
                        (A) The process of the Federal Emergency Management
                    Agency for deploying personnel to support preliminary
                    damage assessments.
                        (B) The number of Agency staff participating on
                    disaster assessment teams.
                        (C) The training and experience of such staff
                    described in subparagraph (B).
                        (D) A calculation of the average amount of time
                    disaster assessment teams described in subparagraph (A)
                    are deployed to a disaster area.
                        (E) The efforts of the Agency to maintain a
                    consistent liaison between the Agency and State, local,
                    tribal, and territorial officials within a disaster
                    area.

            enactment of this Act, the Administrator of the Federal
            Emergency Management Agency shall convene an advisory panel
            consisting of emergency management personnel employed by State,
            local, territorial, or tribal authorities, and the
            representative organizations of such personnel to assist the
            Agency in improving critical components of the preliminary
            damage assessment process.

                        (B) Inclusion on panel.--To the furthest extent
                    practicable, representation on the advisory panel shall

                    and urban jurisdictions.
                (3) Considerations.--The advisory panel convened under
            paragraph (1) shall--
                        (A) consider--
                                (i) establishing a training regime to
                            ensure preliminary damage assessments are
                            conducted and reviewed under consistent
                            guidelines;

                            the Agency; and
                                (iii) assessing instruction materials

                            pertinent information or language that
                            conflicts with other statutory requirements;
                            and
                        (B) identify opportunities for streamlining the
                    consideration of preliminary damage assessments by the
                    Agency, including eliminating duplicative paperwork
                    requirements and ensuring consistent communication and
                    decision making among Agency staff.
                (4) Interim report.--Not later than 18 months after the
            date of enactment of this Act, the Administrator shall submit

                   Subtitle D--Judicial Security and Privacy

    SEC. 5931. SHORT TITLE.

        This subtitle may be cited as the ``Daniel Anderl Judicial Security
    and Privacy Act of 2022''.

    SEC. 5932. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) Members of the Federal judiciary perform the important
            function of interpreting the Constitution of the United States
            and administering justice in a fair and impartial manner.
                (2) In recent years, partially as a result of the rise in
            the use of social media and online access to information,
            members of the Federal judiciary have been exposed to an
            increased number of personal threats in connection to their
            role. The ease of access to free or inexpensive sources of
            covered information has considerably lowered the effort
            required for malicious actors to discover where individuals
            live and where they spend leisure hours and to find information
            about their family members. Such threats have included calling
            a judge a traitor with references to mass shootings and serial
            killings, a murder attempt on a justice of the Supreme Court of
            the United States, calling for an ``angry mob'' to gather
            outside a home of a judge and, in reference to a judge on the
            court of appeals of the United States, stating how easy it
            would be to ``get them''.
                (3) Between 2015 and 2019, threats and other inappropriate
            communications against Federal judges and other judiciary
            personnel increased from 926 in 2015 to approximately 4,449 in
            2019.
                (4) Over the past decade, several members of the Federal
            judiciary have experienced acts of violence against themselves
            or a family member in connection to their Federal judiciary
            role, including the murder in 2005 of the family of Joan
            Lefkow, a judge for the United States District Court for the
            Northern District of Illinois.
                (5) On Sunday July 19, 2020, an assailant went to the home
            of Esther Salas, a judge for the United States District Court
            for the District of New Jersey, impersonating a package
            delivery driver, opening fire upon arrival, and killing Daniel
            Anderl, the 20-year-old only son of Judge Salas, and seriously
            wounding Mark Anderl, her husband.
                (6) In the aftermath of the recent tragedy that occurred to
            Judge Salas and in response to the continuous rise of threats
            against members of the Federal judiciary, there is an immediate
            need for enhanced security procedures and increased
            availability of tools to protect Federal judges and their
            families.
        (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this subtitle is to improve the safety
    and security of Federal judges, including senior, recalled, or retired
    Federal judges, and their immediate family members to ensure Federal
    judges are able to administer justice fairly without fear of personal
    reprisal from individuals affected by the decisions they make in the
    course of carrying out their public duties.

                        (A) the deliberate targeting of civilians and
                    injuring or killing of noncombatants;
                        (B) the deliberate targeting and attacking of
                    hospitals, schools, and other non-military buildings
                    dedicated to religion, art, science, or charitable
                    purposes, such as the bombing of a theater in Mariupol
                    that served as a shelter for noncombatants and had the
                    word ``children'' written clearly in the Russian
                    language outside;
                        (C) the indiscriminate bombardment of undefended
                    dwellings and buildings;
                        (D) the wanton destruction of property not
                    justified by military necessity;
                        (E) unlawful civilian deportations;
                        (F) the taking of hostages; and
                        (G) rape, or sexual assault or abuse;
                (2) the use of chemical weapons by the Government of the
            Russian Federation in Ukraine would constitute a war crime, and
            engaging in any military preparations to use chemical weapons
            or to develop, produce, stockpile, or retain chemical weapons
            is prohibited by the Chemical Weapons Convention, to which the
            Russian Federation is a signatory;
                (3) Vladimir Putin has a long record of committing acts of
            aggression, systematic abuses of human rights, and acts that
            constitute war crimes or other atrocities both at home and
            abroad, and the brutality and scale of these actions, including
            in the Russian Federation republic of Chechnya, Georgia, Syria,
            and Ukraine, demonstrate the extent to which his regime is
            willing to flout international norms and values in the pursuit
            of its objectives;
                (4) Vladimir Putin has previously sanctioned the use of
            chemical weapons at home and abroad, including in the
            poisonings of Russian spy turned double agent Sergei Skripal
            and his daughter Yulia and leading Russian opposition figure
            Aleksey Navalny, and aided and abetted the use of chemical
            weapons by President Bashar al-Assad in Syria; and
                (5) in 2014, the Government of the Russian Federation
            initiated its unprovoked war of aggression against Ukraine
            which resulted in its illegal occupation of Crimea, the
            unrecognized declaration of independence by the so-called
            ``Donetsk People's Republic'' and ``Luhansk People's Republic''
            by Russia-backed proxies, and numerous human rights violations
            and deaths of civilians in Ukraine.
        (c) Statement of Policy.--It is the policy of the United States--
                (1) to collect, analyze, and preserve evidence and
            information related to war crimes and other atrocities

                        (D) The likelihood that holding the gray asset at
                    risk, or degrading the asset, will affect any attempt

                    the Committee on Appropriations of the House of
                    Representatives.
                (2) Military will to fight.--The term ``military will to
            fight'' means, with respect to the military of a country, the
            disposition and decision to fight, act, or persevere as needed.
                (3) National will to fight.--The term ``national will to
            fight'' means, with respect to the government of a country, the
            resolve to conduct sustained military and other operations for
            an objective even when the expectation of success decreases or
            the need for significant political, economic, and military
            sacrifices increases.
        (b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) According to a study by the RAND corporation, ``will to
            fight'' is poorly analyzed and the least understood aspect of
            war.
                (2) In testimony before the Select Committee on
            Intelligence of the Senate in May 2022, top intelligence
            officials of the United States indicated that although the
            intelligence community accurately anticipated Russia's invasion
            of Ukraine, the intelligence community did not accurately
            assess the will of Ukrainian forces to fight in opposition to a
            Russian invasion or that the Ukrainian forces would succeed in
            averting a rapid Russian military occupation of Kyiv.
                (3) According to the RAND corporation, the intelligence
            community estimated that the Afghan government's forces could
            hold out against the Taliban for as long as 2 years if all
            ground forces of the United States were withdrawn. This
            estimate was revised in June 2021 to reflect an intelligence
            community view that Afghanistan's military collapse could come
            in 6 to 12 months. In August 2021, the Afghan government fell
            within days after the ground forces of the United States were
            withdrawn.
                (4) Similarly, the rapid advance of the Islamic State in
            Iraq and Syria and near-total collapse of the Iraqi Security
            Forces in 2014 appeared to take the policymakers of the United
            States by surprise.
                (5) The apparent gaps in these analyses had important
            implications for policy decisions of the United States toward
            Russia and Afghanistan, and suggest a need for further
            examination of how the intelligence community assesses a
            foreign military's will to fight.
        (c) Report.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
    enactment of this Act, the Director of National Intelligence, acting
    through the National Intelligence Council and in coordination with the
    heads of the elements of the intelligence community that the Director
    determines appropriate, shall submit to the appropriate congressional
    committees a report examining the extent to which analyses of the
    military will to fight and the national will to fight informed the all-
    source analyses of the intelligence community regarding how the armed
    forces and governments of Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Iraq would perform
    at key junctures.
        (d) Elements.--The report under subsection (c) shall include the
    following:
                (1) The methodology of the intelligence community for
            measuring the military will to fight and the national will to
            fight of a foreign country.
                (2) The extent to which analysts of the intelligence
            community applied such methodology when assessing the military
            will to fight and the national will to fight of--
                        (A) Afghanistan following the April 2021
                    announcement of the full withdrawal of the United
                    States Armed Forces;
                        (B) Iraq in the face of the rapid emergence and
                    advancement in 2014 of Islamic State in Iraq and Syria;
                    and
                        (C) Ukraine and Russia during the initial phase of
                    the invasion and march toward Kyiv by Russia in
                    February 2022.
                (3) The extent to which--
                        (A) the assessments described in paragraph (2)
                    depended on the observations of personnel of the United
                    States Armed Forces who had trained Afghan, Iraqi, and
                    Ukrainian armed forces; and
                        (B) such observations reflected any standardized,
                    objective methodology.
                (4) Whether shortcomings in assessing the military will to
            fight and the national will to fight may have affected the
            capacity of the intelligence community to provide ``early
            warning'' about the collapse of government forces in Iraq and
            Afghanistan.
                (5) The extent to which ``red teaming'' was used to test
            the assessments described in paragraph (2).
                (6) The extent to which dissenting opinions of intelligence
            analysts were highlighted in final written products presented
            to senior policymakers of the United States.
                (7) The extent to which analysts and supervisors adhered to
            the policies, procedures, directives, and best practices of the
            intelligence community.
                (8) Recommendations for analyses by the intelligence
            community going forward to incorporate lessons learned and
            enhance the quality of future analytical products to more
            accurately reflect the military will to fight and the national
            will to fight and improve the capacity of the intelligence
            community to accurately predict the success or failure of the
            armed forces of a foreign country.
        (e) Annex.--In submitting the report under subsection (c) to the
    congressional intelligence committees, the Subcommittee on Defense of
    the Committee on Appropriations of the Senate, and the Subcommittee on

            given that term in section 6 of the Elie Wiesel Genocide and
            Atrocities Prevention Act of 2018 (Public Law 115-441; 132

            investigation of an atrocity, including buildings or locations
            (including bodies of water) where physical evidence may be
            collected relating to the perpetrators, victims, and events of
            the atrocity, such as mass graves and other sites containing
            deceased individuals.
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the
    efforts of the United States Government regarding atrocity prevention
    and response through interagency coordination, such as the Atrocity
    Warning Task Force, are critically important and that the Director of
    National Intelligence and the Secretary of Defense should, as
    appropriate and in compliance with the American Servicemembers'
    Protection Act of 2002 (22 U.S.C. 7421 et seq.), do the following:
                (1) Require each element of the intelligence community to
            support the Atrocity Warning Task Force in its mission to

                        (A) collecting and analyzing intelligence
                    identified as an atrocity, as defined in the Elie
                    Wiesel Genocide and Atrocities Prevention Act of 2018

                    and tribunals prosecuting persons responsible for
                    crimes for which such imagery and intelligence may
                    provide evidence (including genocide, crimes against
                    humanity, and war crimes, including with respect to
                    missing persons and suspected atrocity crime scenes);
                    and
                        (C) reassessing archived geospatial imagery
                    containing indicators of war crimes, other atrocities,
                    forced disappearances, and atrocity crime scenes.
                (2) Continue to make available inputs to the Atrocity
            Warning Task Force for the development of the Department of
            State Atrocity Early Warning Assessment and share open-source
            data to support pre-atrocity and genocide indicators and
            warnings to the Atrocity Warning Task Force.

    enactment of this Act, the Director of National Intelligence, in
    coordination with the Secretary of Defense and the heads of the
    elements of the intelligence community, shall develop and submit to the
    appropriate committees of Congress a single protocol setting forth
    policies and procedures relating to authorizations to operate for
    Department of Defense or intelligence community systems held by
    industry providers.
        (c) Limitation.--The protocol under subsection (b) shall be limited
    to authorizations to operate for Department of Defense and intelligence
    community systems.
        (d) Elements.--The protocol under subsection (b) shall include, at

                (1) A policy for reciprocal recognition, as appropriate,
            among the elements of the intelligence community and the
            Department of Defense of authorizations to operate held by
            commercial providers. Such reciprocal recognition shall be
            limited to authorizations to operate for systems that collect,
            process, maintain, use, share, disseminate, or dispose of data
            classified at an equal or lower classification level than the
            original authorization.
                (2) Procedures under which, subject to such criteria as may
            be prescribed by the Director of National Intelligence jointly
            with the Secretary of Defense, a provider that holds an
            authorization to operate for a Department of Defense or
            intelligence community system may provide to the head of an
            element of the intelligence community or the Department of
            Defense the most recently updated version of any software,
            data, or application for use on such system without being
            required to submit an application for new or renewed
            authorization.
                (3) Procedures for the review, renewal, and revocation of
            authorizations to operate held by commercial providers,
            including procedures for maintaining continuous authorizations
            to operate, subject to such conditions as may be prescribed by
            the Director of National Intelligence, in coordination with the
            Secretary of Defense. Such procedures may encourage greater use
            of modern security practices already being adopted by the
            Department of Defense and other Federal agencies, such as
            continuous authorization with system security focused on
            continuous monitoring of risk and security controls, active
            system defense, and the use of an approved mechanism for secure
            and continuous delivery of software (commonly referred to as
            ``DevSecOps'').
                (4) A policy for the harmonization of documentation
            requirements for commercial providers submitting applications
            for authorizations to operate, with the goal of a uniform
            requirement across the Department of Defense and the elements
            of the intelligence community (subject to exceptions
            established by the Director and the Secretary). Such policy
            shall include the following requirements:
                        (A) A requirement for the full disclosure of
                    evidence in the reciprocity process across the
                    Department of Defense and the elements of the
                    intelligence community.
                        (B) With respect to a system with an existing
                    authorization to operate, a requirement for approval by
                    the Chief Information Officer or a designated official
                    (as the head of the respective element of the
                    intelligence community determines appropriate) for such
                    system to operate at an equal or higher level
                    classification level, to be granted prior to the
                    performance of an additional security assessment with
                    respect to such system, and regardless of which element
                    of the intelligence community or Department of Defense
                    granted the original authorization.
                (5) A requirement to establish a joint secure portal of the
            Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the
            Department of Defense for the maintenance of records,
            applications, and system requirements for authorizations to
            operate.
                (6) A plan to examine, and if necessary, address, the
            shortage of intelligence community and Department of Defense
            personnel authorized to support and grant an authorization to
            operate. Such plan shall include--
                        (A) a report on the current average wait times for
                    authorizations to operate and backlogs, disaggregated
                    by each element of the intelligence community and the
                    Department of Defense;
                        (B) appropriate recommendations to increase pay or
                    implement other incentives to recruit and retain such
                    personnel; and
                        (C) a plan to leverage independent third-party
                    assessment organizations to support assessments of
                    applications for authorizations to operate.
                (7) Procedures to ensure data security and safety with
            respect to the implementation of the protocol.
                (8) A proposed timeline for the implementation of the
            protocol by the deadline specified in subsection (g).
        (e) Coordinating Officials.--Not later than 60 days after the date
    of the enactment of this Act--

            implementing this section and overseeing implementation of the
            protocol under subsection (b) with respect to the element.
        (f) Documentation Requirements.--Under the protocol under
    subsection (b), no head of a Federal agency may commence the operation
    of a system using an authorization to operate granted by another
    Federal agency without possessing documentation of the original

        (a) Plan; Briefing.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than 180 days after the date of
            the date of enactment of this Act, the Director of National
            Intelligence, in consultation with the Secretary of Defense and
            the heads of such other elements of the intelligence community
            as the Director of National Intelligence may determine
            appropriate, shall--
                        (A) develop a plan to expand access by contractors
                    of small emerging technology companies to sensitive
                    compartmented information facilities for the purpose of
                    providing such contractors with a facility to securely
                    perform work; and
                        (B) provide to the congressional intelligence
                    committees, the Committee on Armed Services and the
                    Committee on Appropriations of the Senate, and the
                    Committee on Armed Services and the Committee on
                    Appropriations of the House of Representatives a
                    briefing on such plan.
                (2) Matters.--The plan under paragraph (1) shall include
            the following:
                        (A) An overview of the existing sensitive
                    compartmented information facilities, if any, that may
                    be available for the purpose specified in paragraph
                    (1).
                        (B) An assessment of the feasibility of building
                    additional sensitive compartmented information
                    facilities for such purpose.
                        (C) An assessment of the relative costs and
                    benefits of repurposing existing, or building
                    additional, sensitive compartmented information
                    facilities for such purpose.
                        (D) The eligibility criteria for determining which
                    contractors under this section may be granted access to
                    sensitive compartmented information facilities for such
                    purpose.
                        (E) An estimate of the maximum number of
                    contractors that may be provided access to sensitive
                    compartmented information facilities for such purpose,
                    taking into account the matters specified in
                    subparagraphs (A) and (B).
                        (F) Policies to ensure the efficient and narrow use
                    of sensitive compartmented information facilities for
                    such purpose, including a timeline for the length of
                    such use by a contractor under this section and a
                    detailed description of the process to terminate access
                    to the sensitive compartmented information facility by
                    such contractor upon--
                                (i) the expiration of the contract or
                            agreement of the contractor; or
                                (ii) a determination that the contractor no
                            longer has a need for such access to fulfill
                            the terms of such contract or agreement.
                        (G) Pricing structures for the use of sensitive
                    compartmented information facilities by contractors for
                    the purpose specified in paragraph (1). Such pricing
                    structures--
                                (i) may include free use (for the purpose
                            of incentivizing future contracts), with the
                            potential for pricing to increase dependent on
                            the length of the contract or agreement, the
                            size of the contractor, and the need for such
                            use; and
                                (ii) shall ensure that the cumulative cost
                            for a contractor to rent and independently
                            certify a sensitive compartmented information
                            facility for such purpose does not exceed the
                            market average for the Director of National
                            Intelligence or the Secretary of Defense to
                            build, certify, and maintain a sensitive
                            compartmented information facility.
                        (H) A security plan for vetting each contractor
                    prior to the access of a sensitive compartmented
                    information facility by the contractor for the purpose
                    specified in paragraph (1), and an assessment of
                    potential security concerns regarding such access.
                        (I) A proposed timeline for the expansion of access
                    to sensitive compartmented information facilities in
                    accordance with paragraph (1).
                        (J) Such other matters as the Director of National
                    Intelligence or the Secretary of Defense considers
                    relevant to such expansion.
        (b) Eligibility Criteria for Contractors.--Unless the Director of
    National Intelligence determines the source of the financing of a
    contractor poses a national security risk, such source of financing may
    not be taken into consideration in making a determination as to the
    eligibility of the contractor in accordance with subsection (a)(2)(D).
        (c) Reports on Expansion of Security Clearances for Certain
    Contractors.--
                (1) Reports.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
            enactment of this Act, and annually thereafter for 3 years, the

        (c) Assumptions.--In designing the strategy under subsection (a),
    the Secretary, in coordination with the Administrator and the Federal
    partners listed in section 7303(b), shall account for certain factors
    to make the strategy operationally viable, including the assumption
    that--
                (1) multiple levels of critical infrastructure have been
            taken offline or destroyed by catastrophic incidents or the
            effects of catastrophic incidents;
                (2) impacted sectors may include--
                        (A) the transportation sector;
                        (B) the communication sector;
                        (C) the energy sector;
                        (D) the healthcare and public health sector; and

                (3) State, local, Indian Tribal, and territorial
            governments have been equally affected or made largely
            inoperable by catastrophic incidents or the effects of
            catastrophic incidents;
                (4) the emergency has exceeded the response capabilities of
            State, local, and Indian Tribal governments under the Robert T.
            Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42
            U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) and other relevant disaster response laws;
            and
                (5) the United States military is sufficiently engaged in
            armed or cyber conflict with State or non-State adversaries, or
            is otherwise unable to augment domestic response capabilities
            in a significant manner due to a catastrophic incident.

    SEC. 7306. VALIDATION OF THE STRATEGY THROUGH AN EXERCISE.

        Not later than 1 year after the addition of the annex required
    under section 7305, the Administrator shall lead an exercise as part of

            responding to the impacts of catastrophic incidents on citizens
            of the United States; and
                (2) additional authorities that should be considered for
            Federal agencies to more effectively implement the strategy
            required under section 7305.
        (b) Inclusion in Reports.--The Secretary may include the
    recommendations required under subsection (a) in a report submitted
    under section 7308.

        (a) In General.--In carrying out repair or maintenance activity of
    a Federal jetty or breakwater associated with an authorized navigation
    project, the Secretary shall, notwithstanding the authorized dimensions
    of the jetty or breakwater, ensure that such repair or maintenance
    activity is sufficient to meet the authorized purpose of such project,
    including ensuring that any harbor or inland harbor associated with the
    project is protected from projected changes in wave action or height
    (including changes that result from relative sea level change over the
    useful life of the project).
        (b) Classification of Activity.--The Secretary may not classify any
    repair or maintenance activity of a Federal jetty or breakwater carried
    out under subsection (a) as major rehabilitation of such jetty or
    breakwater--
                (1) if the Secretary determines that--
                        (A) projected changes in wave action or height,
                    including changes that result from relative sea level
                    change, will diminish the functionality of the jetty or
                    breakwater to meet the authorized purpose of the
                    project; and
                        (B) such repair or maintenance activity is
                    necessary to restore such functionality; or
                (2) if--
                        (A) the Secretary has not carried out regular and
                    routine Federal maintenance activity at the jetty or
                    breakwater; and
                        (B) the structural integrity of the jetty or
                    breakwater is degraded as a result of a lack of such
                    regular and routine Federal maintenance activity.

    SEC. 8102. EMERGENCY RESPONSE TO NATURAL DISASTERS.

        (a) In General.--Section 5(a)(1) of the Act of August 18, 1941 (33

    hurricane or shore protective structure or project damaged or destroyed
    by wind, wave, or water action of other than an ordinary nature to the
    pre-storm level of protection, to the design level of protection, or,
    notwithstanding the authorized dimensions of the structure or project,
    to a level sufficient to meet the authorized purpose of such structure
    or project, whichever provides greater protection, when, in the
    discretion of the Chief of Engineers, such repair and restoration is
    warranted for the adequate functioning of the structure or project for
    hurricane or shore protection, including to ensure the structure or
    project is functioning adequately to protect against projected changes
    in wave action or height or storm surge (including changes that result
    from relative sea level change over the useful life of the structure or
    project), subject to the condition that the Chief of Engineers may, if
    requested by the non-Federal sponsor, include modifications to the
    structure or project (including the addition of new project features)
    to address major deficiencies, increase resilience, increase benefits
    from the reduction of damages from inundation, wave action, or erosion,
    or implement nonstructural alternatives to the repair or restoration of
    the structure.''.
        (b) Great Lakes Advance Measures Assistance.--
                (1) In general.--The Secretary shall not deny a request
            from the Governor of a Great Lakes State to provide advance

            August 18, 1941 (33 U.S.C. 701n(a)) to reduce the risk of
            damage from rising water levels in the Great Lakes solely on
            the basis that the damage is caused by erosion.
                (2) Federal share.--Assistance provided by the Secretary
            pursuant to a request described in paragraph (1) shall be at
            Federal expense if the assistance is for the construction of
            advance measures to a temporary construction standard.
                (3) Great lakes state defined.--In this subsection, the
            term ``Great Lakes State'' means the State of Illinois,
            Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, or
            Wisconsin.

                    population at risk and protected by the levee system
                    that would be adversely impacted if the levee system
                    fails or water levels exceed the height of any levee
                    segment within the levee system (which may be the
                    applicable estimate included in the levee database
                    established under section 9004 of the Water Resources
                    Development Act of 2007 (33 U.S.C. 3303), if
                    available);
                        (B) the number of times the non-Federal interest
                    has received emergency flood-fighting or repair
                    assistance under section 5 of the Act of August 18,
                    1941 (33 U.S.C. 701n) for the levee system, and the
                    total expenditures on postflood repairs over the life
                    of the levee system;
                        (C) the functionality of the levee system with
                    regard to higher precipitation levels, including due to
                    changing climatic conditions and extreme weather
                    events;
                        (D) the potential costs and benefits (including
                    environmental benefits and implications for levee-
                    protected communities) from modifying the applicable
                    levee system to restore connections with adjacent
                    floodplains; and
                        (E) available studies, information, literature, or
                    data from relevant Federal, State, or local entities.

                    to flooding in two or more events in any 10-year
                    period; and
                        (B) for which the non-Federal interest has received
                    emergency flood-fighting or repair assistance under
                    section 5 of the Act of August 18, 1941 (33 U.S.C.
                    701n) with respect to such flood events.
                (3) Scope.--The Secretary shall ensure that an assessment
            under subsection (a) shall be similar in cost and scope to an
            initial assessment prepared by the Secretary pursuant to
            section 216 of the Flood Control Act of 1970 (33 U.S.C. 549a).

    SEC. 8237. ASSESSMENT OF FOREST, RANGELAND, AND WATERSHED RESTORATION
                  SERVICES ON LANDS OWNED BY THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS.

        (a) In General.--The Secretary shall carry out an assessment of
    forest, rangeland, and watershed restoration services on lands owned by
    the Corps of Engineers, including an assessment of whether the
    provision of such services on such lands by non-Federal interests
    through good neighbor agreements would be in the best interests of the
    United States.
        (b) Considerations.--In carrying out the assessment under
    subsection (a), the Secretary shall--
                (1) describe the forest, rangeland, and watershed
            restoration services provided by the Secretary on lands owned
            by the Corps of Engineers;
                (2) assess whether such services, including efforts to
            reduce hazardous fuels and to restore and improve forest,
            rangeland, and watershed health (including the health of fish
            and wildlife habitats) would be enhanced by authorizing the
            Secretary to enter into a good neighbor agreement with a non-
            Federal interest;
                (3) describe the process for ensuring that Federal
            requirements for land management plans for forests on lands
            owned by the Corps of Engineers remain in effect under good
            neighbor agreements;
                (4) assess whether Congress should authorize the Secretary
            to enter into a good neighbor agreement with a non-Federal
            interest to provide forest, rangeland, and watershed
            restoration services on lands owned by the Corps of Engineers,
            including by assessing any interest expressed by a non-Federal
            interest to enter into such an agreement;
                (5) consider whether implementation of a good neighbor
            agreement on lands owned by the Corps of Engineers would
            benefit State and local governments and Indian Tribes that are
            located in the same geographic area as such lands; and
                (6) consult with the heads of other Federal agencies
            authorized to enter into good neighbor agreements with non-
            Federal interests.
        (c) Report to Congress.--Not later than 18 months after the date of
    enactment of this section, the Secretary shall submit to the Committee
    on Transportation and Infrastructure of the House of Representatives
    and the Committee on Environment and Public Works of the Senate, and
    make publicly available (including on a publicly available website), a
    report describing the results of the assessment carried out under

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the growth of subnational cooperation has enabled
            States and municipalities to play an increasingly significant
            role in foreign policy and complement the efforts of the
            Department;
                (2) the Department's recently established Unit for
            Subnational Diplomacy will play a critical role in leveraging
            the Department's resources to support State and municipal
            governments in conducting subnational engagement and increasing
            cooperation with foreign allies and partners; and
                (3) in facilitating such subnational engagements, the
            Department should engage with a broad array of United States
            cities without regard to their population size or location;

            of United States citizens, including citizens residing in urban
            and rural areas, in the foreign policy process;
                (3) countering subnational diplomacy efforts from
            adversarial nations;
                (4) strengthening engagement with foreign subnational
            governments; and
                (5) any other operations that the Secretary determines to
            be relevant.
        (d) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this subsection may be
    construed to preclude--
                (1) the Unit for Subnational Diplomacy Office from being
            elevated to a bureau within the Department; or
                (2) the Special Representative for Subnational Diplomacy

                    programs of the Department, including the Foreign
                    Service Internship Program, to internship programs that

                    such internship program may refuse compensation,
                    including if doing so allows such participant to
                    receive college or university curricular credit.
                (2) Exception.--The transition required under paragraph (1)
            shall not apply to unpaid internship programs of the Department

                    not later than 30 days after making a determination
                    that the conversion of such internship program to a
                    compensated internship program would not be consistent
                    with effective management goals, submits a report
                    explaining such determination to--
                                (i) the appropriate congressional

                            unpaid internship program of the Department to
                            an internship program that offers compensation
                            would not be consistent with effective
                            management goals; and
                                (ii)(I) provide justification for
                            maintaining such unpaid status indefinitely; or
                                (II) identify any additional authorities or
                            resources that would be necessary to convert

            investigations initiated for the students described in
            paragraph (1), including the timeline for such investigations,

    manner that protects the safety, security, and privacy of sensitive
    employee information.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--

            conflicts of interest following government service, including
            with respect to senior United States officials working on
            behalf of foreign governments; and

                 TITLE XCIII--EMBASSY SECURITY AND CONSTRUCTION

    SEC. 9301. AMENDMENTS TO SECURE EMBASSY CONSTRUCTION AND
                  COUNTERTERRORISM ACT OF 1999.

        (a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the ``Secure Embassy
    Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 2022''.
        (b) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism
            Act of 1999 (title VI of division A of appendix G of Public Law
            106-113) was a necessary response to bombings on August 7,
            1998, at the United States embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and in
            Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, that were destroyed by simultaneously
            exploding bombs. The resulting explosions killed 220 persons
            and injured more than 4,000 others. Twelve Americans and 40
            Kenyan and Tanzanian employees of the United States Foreign
            Service were killed in the attacks.
                (2) Those bombings, followed by the expeditionary
            diplomatic efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan, demonstrated the
            need to prioritize the security of United States posts and
            personnel abroad above other considerations.
                (3) Between 1999 and 2022, the risk calculus of the
            Department impacted the ability of United States diplomats
            around the world to advance the interests of the United States
            through access to local populations, leaders, and places.
                (4) America's competitors and adversaries do not have the
            same restrictions that United States diplomats have, especially
            in critically important medium-threat and high-threat posts.
                (5) The Department's 2021 Overseas Security Panel report
            states that--
                        (A) the requirement for setback and collocation of
                    diplomatic posts under paragraphs (2) and (3) of
                    section 606(a) of the Secure Embassy Construction and
                    Counterterrorism Act of 1999 (22 U.S.C. 4865(a)) has
                    led to skyrocketing costs of new embassies and
                    consulates; and
                        (B) the locations of such posts have become less
                    desirable, creating an extremely suboptimal nexus that
                    further hinders United States diplomats who are willing
                    to accept more risk in order to advance United States
                    interests.
        (c) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the setback and collocation requirements referred to in
            subsection (b)(5)(A), even with available waivers, no longer
            provide the security such requirements used to provide because
            of advancement in technologies, such as remote controlled
            drones, that can evade walls and other such static barriers;
                (2) the Department should focus on creating performance
            security standards that--
                        (A) attempt to keep the setback requirements of
                    diplomatic posts as limited as possible; and
                        (B) provide diplomats access to local populations
                    as much as possible, while still providing a necessary
                    level of security;
                (3) collocation of diplomatic facilities is often not
            feasible or advisable, particularly for public diplomacy spaces
            whose mission is to reach and be accessible to wide sectors of
            the public, including in countries with repressive governments,
            since such spaces are required to permit the foreign public to
            enter and exit the space easily and openly;
                (4) the Bureau of Diplomatic Security should--
                        (A) fully utilize the waiver process provided under
                    paragraphs (2)(B) and (3)(B) of section 606(a) of the
                    Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism Act of
                    1999 (22 U.S.C. 4865(a)); and
                        (B) appropriately exercise such waiver process as a
                    tool to right-size the appropriate security footing at
                    each diplomatic post rather than only approving waivers
                    in extreme circumstances;
                (5) the return of great power competition requires--
                        (A) United States diplomats to do all they can to
                    outperform our adversaries; and
                        (B) the Department to better optimize use of
                    taxpayer funding to advance United States national
                    interests; and
                (6) this section will better enable United States diplomats
            to compete in the 21st century, while saving United States
            taxpayers millions in reduced property and maintenance costs at
            embassies and consulates abroad.
        (d) Definition of United States Diplomatic Facility.--Section 603
    of the Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 1999
    (title VI of division A of appendix G of Public Law 106-113) is amended
    to read as follows:

    ``SEC. 603. UNITED STATES DIPLOMATIC FACILITY DEFINED.

        ``In this title, the terms `United States diplomatic facility' and
    `diplomatic facility' mean any chancery, consulate, or other office
    that--

            diplomatic or consular premises, consistent with the Vienna
            Convention on Diplomatic Relations, done at Vienna April 18,

            Vienna April 24, 1963, and was notified to the host government
            as such; or
                ``(2) is otherwise subject to a publicly available
            bilateral agreement with the host government (contained in the

    SEC. 9302. DIPLOMATIC SUPPORT AND SECURITY.

        (a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the ``Diplomatic
    Support and Security Act of 2022''.
        (b) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) A robust overseas diplomatic presence is part of an
            effective foreign policy, particularly in volatile environments
            where a flexible and timely diplomatic response can be decisive
            in preventing and addressing conflict.
                (2) Diplomats routinely put themselves and their families
            at great personal risk to serve their country overseas where
            they face threats related to international terrorism, violent
            conflict, and public health.
                (3) The Department has a remarkable record of protecting
            personnel while enabling an enormous amount of global
            diplomatic activity, often in unsecure and remote places and
            facing a variety of evolving risks and threats. With support
            from Congress, the Department has revised policy, improved
            physical security through retrofitting and replacing old
            facilities, deployed additional security personnel and armored
            vehicles, and greatly enhanced training requirements and
            training facilities, including the new Foreign Affairs Security
            Training Center in Blackstone, Virginia.
                (4) Diplomatic missions rely on robust staffing and
            ambitious external engagement to advance United States
            interests as diverse as competing with China's malign influence
            around the world, fighting terrorism and transnational
            organized crime, preventing and addressing violent conflict and
            humanitarian disasters, promoting United States businesses and
            trade, protecting the rights of marginalized groups, addressing
            climate change, and preventing pandemic disease.
                (5) Efforts to protect personnel overseas have often
            resulted in inhibiting diplomatic activity and limiting
            engagement between embassy personnel and local governments and
            populations.
                (6) Given that Congress currently provides annual
            appropriations in excess of $1,900,000,000 for embassy
            security, construction, and maintenance, the Department should
            be able to ensure a robust overseas presence without inhibiting
            the ability of diplomats to--
                        (A) meet outside United States secured facilities
                    with foreign leaders to explain, defend, and advance
                    United States priorities;
                        (B) understand and report on foreign political,
                    social, and economic conditions through meeting and
                    interacting with community officials outside of United
                    States facilities;
                        (C) provide United States citizen services; and
                        (D) collaborate and, at times, compete with other
                    diplomatic missions, particularly those, such as that
                    of the People's Republic of China, that do not have
                    restrictions on meeting locations.
                (7) Given these stakes, Congress has a responsibility to
            empower, support, and hold the Department accountable for
            implementing an aggressive strategy to ensure a robust overseas
            presence that mitigates potential risks and adequately
            considers the myriad direct and indirect consequences of a lack
            of diplomatic presence.
        (c) Encouraging Expeditionary Diplomacy.--
                (1) Purpose.--Section 102(b) of the Diplomatic Security Act
            of 1986 (22 U.S.C. 4801(b)) is amended--
                        (A) by amending paragraph (3) to read as follows:
                ``(3) to promote strengthened security measures,
            institutionalize a culture of learning, and, in the case of
            apparent gross negligence or breach of duty, recommend that the
            Secretary investigate accountability for United States
            Government personnel with security-related responsibilities
            under chief of mission authority;'';
                        (B) by redesignating paragraphs (4) and (5) as
                    paragraphs (5) and (6), respectively; and
                        (C) by inserting after paragraph (3) the following:
                ``(4) to support a culture of risk management, instead of
            risk avoidance, that enables the Department of State to pursue
            its vital goals with full knowledge that it is neither
            desirable nor possible for the Department to avoid all
            risks;''.
                (2) Briefings on embassy security.--Section 105(a)(1) of
            the Diplomatic Security Act (22 U.S.C. 4804(a)) is amended--
                        (A) by striking ``any plans to open or reopen a
                    high risk, high threat post'' and inserting ``progress
                    towards opening or reopening a high risk, high threat
                    post, and the risk to national security of the
                    continued closure or any suspension of operations and
                    remaining barriers to doing so'';
                        (B) in subparagraph (A), by inserting ``the risk to
                    United States national security of the post's continued
                    closure or suspension of operations,'' after ``national
                    security of the United States,''; and
                        (C) in subparagraph (C), by inserting ``the type
                    and level of security threats such post could
                    encounter, and'' before ``security `tripwires'''.
        (d) Security Review Committees.--Section 301 of the Diplomatic
    Security Act (22 U.S.C. 4831) is amended--
                (1) in the section heading, by striking ``accountability
            review boards'' and inserting ``security review committees'';
                (2) in subsection (a)--
                        (A) by amending paragraph (1) to read as follows:
                ``(1) Convening the security review committee.--In any case
            of a serious security incident involving loss of life, serious
            injury, or significant destruction of property at, or related

            intelligence activities of a foreign government directed at a
            United States Government mission abroad, the Secretary of State
            shall convene a Security Review Committee, which shall issue a
            report providing a full account of what occurred, consistent
            with section 304.'';
                        (B) by redesignating paragraphs (2) and (3) as

    SEC. 9303. ESTABLISHMENT OF UNITED STATES EMBASSIES IN SOLOMON ISLANDS,
                  KIRIBATI, AND TONGA AND A DIPLOMATIC PRESENCE IN VANUATU.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The Pacific Islands are vital to United States national
            security and national interests in the Indo-Pacific region and
            globally.
                (2) The Pacific Islands region spans 15 percent of the
            world's surface area and controls access to open waters in the
            Central Pacific, sea lanes to the Western Hemisphere, supply
            lines to United States forward-deployed forces in East Asia,
            and economically important fisheries.
                (3) The Pacific Islands region is home to the State of
            Hawaii, 11 United States territories, United States Naval Base
            Guam, and United States Andersen Air Force Base.
                (4) Pacific Island countries cooperate with the United
            States and United States partners on maritime security and
            efforts to stop illegal, unreported, and destructive fishing.
                (5) The Pacific Islands are rich in biodiversity and are on
            the frontlines of environmental challenges and climate issues.
                (6) The People's Republic of China seeks to increase its
            influence in the Pacific Islands region, including through
            infrastructure development under the People's Republic of
            China's One Belt, One Road Initiative and its new security
            agreement with the Solomon Islands.
                (7) The United States closed its embassy in the Solomon
            Islands in 1993.
                (8) The United States Embassy in Papua New Guinea manages
            the diplomatic affairs of the United States to the Republic of
            Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands, and the United States Embassy
            in Fiji manages the diplomatic affairs of the United States to
            the Republic of Kiribati and the Kingdom of Tonga.
                (9) The United States requires a physical and more robust
            diplomatic presence in the Republic of Vanuatu, the Republic of
            Kiribati, the Solomon Islands, and the Kingdom of Tonga, to
            ensure the physical and operational security of our efforts in
            those countries to deepen relations, protect United States

                     TITLE CII--REGIONAL OCEAN PARTNERSHIPS

    SEC. 10201. FINDINGS; PURPOSES.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The ocean and coastal waters and the Great Lakes of the
            United States are foundational to the economy, security, global
            competitiveness, and well-being of the United States and
            continuously serve the people of the United States and other
            countries as an important source of food, energy, economic
            productivity, recreation, beauty, and enjoyment.
                (2) Over many years, the resource productivity and water
            quality of the ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes areas of the
            United States have been diminished by pollution, increasing
            population demands, economic development, and natural and man-
            made hazard events, both acute and chronic.
                (3) The ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes areas of the United
            States are managed by State and Federal resource agencies and
            Indian Tribes and regulated on an interstate and regional scale
            by various overlapping Federal authorities, thereby creating a
            significant need for interstate coordination to enhance
            regional priorities, including the ecological and economic
            health of those areas.
                (4) Indian Tribes have unique expertise and knowledge
            important for the stewardship of the ocean and coastal waters
            and the Great Lakes of the United States.
        (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this title are as follows:
                (1) To complement and expand cooperative voluntary efforts
            intended to manage, conserve, and restore ocean, coastal, and
            Great Lakes areas spanning across multiple State and Indian
            Tribe jurisdictions.
                (2) To expand Federal support for monitoring, data
            management, restoration, research, and conservation activities
            in ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes areas.
                (3) To commit the United States to a comprehensive
            cooperative program to achieve improved water quality in, and
            improvements in the productivity of living resources of,
            oceans, coastal, and Great Lakes ecosystems.
                (4) To authorize Regional Ocean Partnerships as
            intergovernmental coordinators for shared regional priorities
            among States and Indian Tribes relating to the collaborative
            management of the large marine ecosystems, thereby reducing
            duplication of efforts and maximizing opportunities to leverage
            support in the ocean and coastal regions.
                (5) To empower States to take a lead role in managing
            oceans, coastal, and Great Lakes areas.
                (6) To incorporate rights of Indian Tribes in the
            management of oceans, coasts, and Great Lakes resources and
            provide resources to support Indian Tribe participation in and
            engagement with Regional Ocean Partnerships.
                (7) To enable Regional Ocean Partnerships, or designated
            fiscal management entities of such partnerships, to receive
            Federal funding to conduct the scientific research,
            conservation, and restoration activities, and priority
            coordination on shared regional priorities necessary to achieve
            the purposes described in paragraphs (1) through (6).

                     TITLE CIII--NATIONAL OCEAN EXPLORATION

    SEC. 10301. FINDINGS.

        Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The health and resilience of the ocean are vital to the
            security and economy of the United States and to the lives of
            the people of the United States.
                (2) The United States depends on the ocean to regulate
            weather and climate, to sustain and protect the diversity of
            life, for maritime shipping, for national defense, and for
            food, energy, medicine, recreation, and other services
            essential to the people of the United States and all humankind.
                (3) The prosperity, security, and well-being of the United
            States depend on successful understanding and stewardship of
            the ocean.
                (4) Interdisciplinary cooperation and engagement among
            government agencies, research institutions, nongovernmental
            organizations, States, Indian Tribes, and the private sector
            are essential for successful stewardship of ocean and coastal
            environments, national economic growth, national security, and
            development of agile strategies that develop, promote, and use
            new technologies.
                (5) Ocean exploration can help the people of the United
            States understand how to be effective stewards of the ocean and
            serve as catalysts and enablers for other sectors of the
            economy.
                (6) Mapping, exploration, and characterization of the ocean
            provides basic, essential information to protect and restore
            the marine environment, stimulate economic activity, and
            provide security for the United States.
                (7) A robust national ocean exploration program engaging
            multiple Federal agencies, Indian Tribes, the private sector,
            nongovernmental organizations, and academia is--
                        (A) essential to the interests of the United States
                    and vital to its security and economy and the health
                    and well-being of all people of the United States; and
                        (B) critical to reestablish the United States at
                    the forefront of global ocean exploration and
                    stewardship.
