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.

        in combat casualties, or is likely to result in combat 
        casualties, the Secretary may use the procedures developed 
        under this section in order to accomplish the urgent 
        acquisition and deployment of the needed capability.

        unfulfilled, could potentially result in loss of life or 
        critical mission failure, the Secretary may use the procedures

        needed to eliminate a deficiency that as the result of a cyber 
        attack has resulted in critical mission failure, the loss of 
        life, property destruction, or economic effects, or if left 
        unfilled is likely to result in critical mission failure, the 
        loss of life, property destruction, or economic effects, the 
        Secretary may use the procedures developed under this section

        eliminate a deficiency described in that subparagraph, the

        such senior official determines in writing would unnecessarily 
        impede the urgent acquisition and deployment of such

        acquired without an extensive delay, the senior official shall 
        require that an interim solution be implemented and deployed 
        using the procedures developed under this section to minimize 
        adverse consequences resulting from the urgent need.

        Department of Defense to urgently acquire and deploy such 
        capability or immediately initiate such project, respectively,

        without regard to whether such a member is, under laws in 
        effect at the time of the report, in the active or reserve 
        component of the Space Force; and
            (2) in which such members may transfer between duty 
        statuses more freely than would otherwise be allowed under the

include the following:
            (1) A plan that describes any rules, regulations, policies, 
        guidance, and statutory provisions that may be implemented to

                    (A) the ability of a member of the Space Component 
                to transfer between duty statuses, the number of 
                members authorized to make such transfers, and the

                retirement benefits (including benefits under laws 
                administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs) to 
                which the member would be entitled based on a career 
                consisting of service in duty statuses of the Space 
                Component; and
                    (C) the composition and operation of promotion 
                selection boards with respect to members of the Space 
                Component, including the treatment of general officers 
                by such boards.
            (2) A comprehensive analysis of how such proposal may 
        affect the ability of departments and agencies of the Federal 
        Government (including departments and agencies outside the 
        Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs) 
        to accurately calculate the pay or determine the benefits, 
        including health care benefits under chapter 55 of title 10, 
        United States Code, to which a member or former member of the 
        Space Component is entitled at any given time.
            (3) Draft legislative text, prepared by the Office of 
        Legislative Counsel within the Office of the General Counsel of 
        the Department of Defense, that comprehensively sets forth all 
        amendments and modifications to Federal statutes needed to 
        effectively implement the proposal described in subsection (a), 
        including--
                    (A) amendments and modifications to titles 10, 37, 
                and 38, United States Code;
                    (B) amendments and modifications to Federal 
                statutes outside of such titles; and
                    (C) an analysis of each provision of Federal 
                statutory law that refers to the duty status of a 
                member of an Armed Force, or whether such member is in 
                an active or reserve component, and, for each such 
                provision--
                            (i) a written determination indicating 
                        whether such provision requires amendment or 
                        other modification to clarify its applicability 
                        to a member of the Space Component; and
                            (ii) if such an amendment or modification 
                        is required, draft legislative text for such 
                        amendment or modification.
            (4) An assessment of the feasibility and advisability of--
                    (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.

        to assess whether the covered ethics requirements have had an

                ethical standards that are applied exclusively to 
                Department of Defense personnel are justified.

                requirements have affected, or are likely to affect, 
                the hiring and retention of personnel, particularly

                        experience or training, at the Department of 
                        Defense; and

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

                support of technology development, supply chain 
                security, and other national security matters.

                alteration of any covered ethics requirement may 
                adversely affect the ability of the Department of

                violations of ethical standards, including conflicts of 
                interest, by Department of Defense personnel.
                    (G) An examination of whether the removal or 
                alteration of any covered ethics requirement may 
                adversely affect the ability of the Department of 
                Defense to negotiate and effectuate arms-length 
                transactions.
                    (H) Any suggested changes to any covered ethics 
                requirement to further the establishment and 
                maintenance of ethical standards, while also supporting

                retain personnel and obtain expertise from academia, 
                think tanks, industry, and other groups to support

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.--

        Development and in consultation with other Inspectors General 
        as appropriate, shall submit to the appropriate congressional

                    (C) An assessment of any failures by United States, 
                bilateral, or multilateral organizations to work with 
                such Inspectors General in a timely and transparent 
                manner.
                    (D) A description of the footprint in Europe of 
                such Inspectors General for purposes of oversight of

                conducted.
                    (G) Any findings or recommendations with respect to 
                assistance to Ukraine.

SEC. 1265. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DEFENSE ALLIANCES AND PARTNERSHIPS IN 
              THE INDO-PACIFIC REGION.

        support an open, inclusive, and rules-based regional 
        architecture;
            (5) broadening United States engagement with India, 
        including through the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue--
                    (A) to advance the shared objective of a free and 
                open Indo-Pacific region through bilateral and

                COVID-19;
            (6) strengthening the United States partnership with 
        Taiwan, consistent with the Three Communiques, the Taiwan 
        Relations Act (Public Law 96-8; 22 U.S.C. 3301 et seq.), and

        strait relations;
            (7) reinforcing the status of the Republic of Singapore as 
        a Major Security Cooperation Partner of the United States and 
        continuing to strengthen defense and security cooperation 
        between the military forces of the Republic of Singapore and 
        the Armed Forces of the United States, including through 
        participation in combined exercises and training;
            (8) engaging with the Federated States of Micronesia, the 
        Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Republic of Palau, and

        including protecting fisheries from illegal, unreported, and 
        unregulated fishing;
            (9) collaborating with Canada, the United Kingdom, France, 
        and other members of the European Union and the North Atlantic 
        Treaty Organization to build connectivity and advance a shared 
        vision for the region that is principled, long-term, and 
        anchored in democratic resilience; and
            (10) investing in enhanced military posture and

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.

    (f) Water Rights.--
            (1) Findings.--Congress finds that--
                    (A) the wilderness areas--
                            (i) are located in the semiarid region of 
                        the Great Basin region; and
                            (ii) include ephemeral and perennial 
                        streams;
                    (B) the hydrology of the wilderness areas is 
                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

                        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

        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

                to broadband and telehealth.

                recruitment, retention, and welfare.
                    (F) Whether productivity expectations provide 
                incentives or pressure to inaccurately report client 
                visits.
                    (G) Whether directors and readjustment counselors 
                of Vet Centers need additional training or guidance on

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;
            (4) as set forth in the Taiwan Relations Act, the capacity 
        to resist any resort to force or other forms of coercion that 
        would jeopardize the security, or the social or economic 
        system, of the people on Taiwan should be maintained;
            (5) the United States should continue to support the 
        development of capable, ready, and modern defense forces 
        necessary for Taiwan to maintain sufficient defensive 
        capabilities, including by--
                    (A) supporting acquisition by Taiwan of defense 
                articles and services through foreign military sales, 
                direct commercial sales, and industrial cooperation, 
                with an emphasis on capabilities that support an 
                asymmetric strategy;
                    (B) ensuring timely review of and response to 
                requests of Taiwan for defense articles and services;
                    (C) conducting practical training and military 
                exercises with Taiwan that enable Taiwan to maintain 
                sufficient defensive capabilities, as described in the 
                Taiwan Relations Act;
                    (D) exchanges between defense officials and 
                officers of the United States and Taiwan at the 
                strategic, policy, and functional levels, consistent 
                with the Taiwan Travel Act (Public Law 115-135; 132 
                Stat. 341), especially for the purposes of--
                            (i) enhancing cooperation on defense 
                        planning;
                            (ii) improving the interoperability of the 
                        military forces of the United States and 
                        Taiwan; and
                            (iii) improving the reserve force of 
                        Taiwan;
                    (E) cooperating with Taiwan to improve its ability 
                to employ military capabilities in asymmetric ways, as 
                described in the Taiwan Relations Act; and
                    (F) expanding cooperation in humanitarian 
                assistance and disaster relief; and
            (6) the United States should increase its support to a free 
        and open society in the face of aggressive efforts by the 
        Government of the People's Republic of China to curtail or 
        influence the free exercise of rights and democratic franchise.

                               CAMPAIGNS

SEC. 5513. STRATEGY TO RESPOND TO INFLUENCE AND INFORMATION OPERATIONS 
              TARGETING TAIWAN.

    (a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act and annually thereafter for the following 5 
years, the Secretary of State, in coordination with the Director of 
National Intelligence, shall develop and implement a strategy to 
respond to--
            (1) covert, coercive, and corrupting activities carried out 
        to advance the Chinese Communist Party's ``United Front'' work 
        related to Taiwan, including activities directed, coordinated, 
        or otherwise supported by the United Front Work Department or 
        its subordinate or affiliated entities; and
            (2) information and disinformation campaigns, cyber 
        attacks, and nontraditional propaganda measures supported by 
        the Government of the People's Republic of China and the 
        Chinese Communist Party that are directed toward persons or 
        entities in Taiwan.
    (b) Elements.--The strategy required under subsection (a) shall 
include descriptions of--
            (1) the proposed response to propaganda and disinformation 
        campaigns by the People's Republic of China and cyber-
        intrusions targeting Taiwan, including--
                    (A) assistance in building the capacity of Taiwan's 
                public and private-sector entities to document and 
                expose propaganda and disinformation supported by the 
                Government of the People's Republic of China, the 
                Chinese Communist Party, or affiliated entities;
                    (B) assistance to enhance Taiwan's ability to

        by the Government of the People's Republic of China and the 
        Chinese Communist Party in Taiwan on local political parties, 
        financial institutions, media organizations, and other

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 
                        departments and agencies identified in

                        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
                    (D) develop and implement a process for regularly 
                sharing relevant information, including classified 
                information to the extent appropriate and practicable,

       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.

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.

    It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) expanding United States economic relations with Taiwan 
        has benefitted the people of both the United States and Taiwan, 
        as Taiwan is now the United States 10th largest goods trading 
        partner, 13th largest export market, 13th largest source of 
        imports, and a key destination for United States agricultural 
        exports;
            (2) further integration would benefit both peoples and is 
        in the strategic and diplomatic interests of the United States; 
        and
            (3) the United States should explore opportunities to 
        expand economic agreements between Taiwan and the United 
        States, through dialogue, and by developing the legal templates 
        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

        international levels, that utilize innovative information and 
        analytical tools and robust review processes to track,

        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 
        Organization and like-minded member states to adopt an approach 
        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.

        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.

            (1) describes the primary sources of income to which the 
        Burmese military has access and that the United States has been 
        unable to reach using sanctions authorities; and
            (2) assesses the impact of the sanctions imposed pursuant 
        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

        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

                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

   Subtitle F--Promotion of Freedom of Information and Countering of

SEC. 5580. SHORT TITLE.

    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.

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) 
        of the North Korean Human Rights Act of 2004 (22 U.S.C. 
        7814(a)(7)(A)).
            (7) A description of Department of State programs and 
        funding levels for programs that promote internet freedom in 
        North Korea, including monitoring and evaluation efforts.
            (8) A description of grantee programs of the United States 
        Agency for Global Media in North Korea that facilitate 
        circumvention tools and broadcasting, including monitoring and 
        evaluation efforts.
            (9) A detailed assessment of how the United States 
        International Broadcasting Surge Capacity Fund authorized under 
        section 316 of the United States International Broadcasting Act 
        of 1994 (22 U.S.C. 6216) has operated to respond to crisis 
        situations in the past, and how authority to transfer 
        unobligated balances from expired accounts would help the 
        United States Agency for Global Media in crisis situations in 
        the future.
            (10) A detailed plan for how the authorization of 
        appropriations under section 5584 will operate alongside and 
        augment existing programming from the relevant Federal agencies 
        and facilitate the development of new tools to assist that 
        programming.
            (11) A detailed plan for engagement and coordination with 
        the Republic of Korea, as appropriate, necessary for 
        implementing the objectives of the strategy required by 
        subsection (a), including--
                    (A) with regard to any new or expanded activities 
                contemplated under paragraphs (9) and (10); and

                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.

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;

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.
    (c) Preliminary Damage Assessment.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than 6 months after the date of 
        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.
            (2) Membership.--
                    (A) In general.--This advisory panel shall consist 
                of at least 2 representatives from national emergency

                Management Agency, selected from emergency management 
                personnel employed by State, local, territorial, or 
                tribal authorities within each region.
                    (B) Inclusion on panel.--To the furthest extent 
                practicable, representation on the advisory panel shall

                        guidelines;
                            (ii) utilizing a common technological

                        and local governments with data collected by 
                        the Agency; and
                            (iii) assessing instruction materials 
                        provided by the Agency for omissions of 
                        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

                to the preliminary damage assessment process, including 
                whether specific disasters result in longer preliminary

               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.

SEC. 5948. UKRAINE INVASION WAR CRIMES DETERRENCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY 
              ACT.

    (a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the ``Ukraine 
Invasion War Crimes Deterrence and Accountability Act''.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) in its premeditated, unprovoked, unjustified, and 
        unlawful full-scale invasion of Ukraine that commenced on 
        February 24, 2022, the military of the Government of the 
        Russian Federation under the direction of President Vladimir 
        Putin has committed war crimes that include but are not limited 
        to--
                    (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 
        committed during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine 
        that began on February 24, 2022, for use in appropriate 
        domestic, foreign, and international courts and tribunals 
        prosecuting those responsible for such crimes consistent with 
        applicable law, including with the American Service Members' 
        Protection Act of 2002 (22 U.S.C. 7421 et seq.);
            (2) to help deter the commission of war crimes and other 
        atrocities in Ukraine by publicizing to the maximum possible 
        extent, including among Russian and other foreign military 
        commanders and troops in Ukraine, efforts to identify and 
        prosecute those responsible for the commission of war crimes 
        during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine that began on 
        February 24, 2022; and
            (3) to continue efforts to identify, deter, and pursue 
        accountability for war crimes and other atrocities committed 
        around the world and by other perpetrators, and to leverage 
        international cooperation and best practices in this regard 
        with respect to the current situation in Ukraine.

            (3) Accessibility of workforce climate surveys.--The 
        Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency shall ensure that, 
        to the extent practicable, and consistent with the protection 
        of intelligence sources and methods, workforce climate surveys 
        are accessible to employees of such Agency on classified and 
        unclassified systems.

    (b) Intelligence Community Assessment Regarding Russian Gray Zone 
Assets.--
            (1) Intelligence community assessment.--The Director of 
        National Intelligence, acting through the National Intelligence 
        Council, shall produce an intelligence community assessment 
        that contains--
                    (A) a description of the gray zone assets of 
                Russia;
                    (B) an identification of any opportunities to hold 
                such gray zone assets at risk, as a method of 
                influencing the behavior of Russia; and

                by Russia.
                    (C) The likelihood that holding the gray zone asset 
                at risk will influence the behavior of Russia.
                    (D) The likelihood that holding the gray asset at 
                risk, or degrading the asset, will affect any attempt 
                of Russia to use force to change existing borders or 
                undermine the political independence or territorial 
                integrity of any state, including Ukraine.

                 Subtitle C--Reports and Other Matters

SEC. 6521. REPORT ON ASSESSING WILL TO FIGHT.

    (a) Definitions.--In this section:
            (1) Appropriate congressional committees.--The term 
        ``appropriate congressional committees'' means the following:
                    (A) The congressional intelligence committees.
                    (B) The Committee on Foreign Relations, the 
                Committee on Armed Services, and the Subcommittee on 
                Defense of the Committee on Appropriations of the 
                Senate.
                    (C) The Committee on Foreign Affairs, the Committee 
                on Armed Services, and the Subcommittee on Defense of 
                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;

                plan, including an assessment of--
                            (i) whether there should be a single Office 
                        of Commercial Integration for the intelligence 
                        community or whether each element of the 
                        intelligence community shall establish such an 
                        Office;

                            (i) how the plan under paragraph (1)(A) 
                        compares to specific alternative actions of the 
                        intelligence community that could be taken to 
                        assist persons desiring to submit an offer for 
                        a contract with the intelligence community and 
                        assist with the procurement of commercial 
                        products and commercial services; and

                assign personnel with expertise in a range of 
                disciplines necessary for the accelerated integration 
                of commercial technologies into the intelligence 
                community (as determined by the Office or Offices of 
                Commercial Integration), including expertise in the

                among the elements of the intelligence community.
    (b) Public Website on Commercial Integration.--

SEC. 6714. HARMONIZATION OF AUTHORIZATIONS TO OPERATE.

    (a) Definition of Appropriate Committees of Congress.--In this 
section, the term ``appropriate committees of Congress'' means--
            (1) the congressional intelligence committees;
            (2) the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate;

            (4) the Committee on Armed Services of the House of 
        Representatives; and
            (5) the Committee on Appropriations of the House of 
        Representatives.
    (b) Protocol.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the 
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 
a minimum, the following:
            (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).

        an official of the Office of the Director of National 
        Intelligence responsible for implementing this section on 
        behalf of the Director and leading coordination across the 
        intelligence community for such implementation;
            (2) the Secretary of Defense shall designate an official of 
        the Department of Defense responsible for implementing this 
        section on behalf of the Secretary and leading coordination 
        across the Department of Defense for such implementation; and
            (3) each head of an element of the intelligence community 
        shall designate an official of that element responsible for 
        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 
authorization to operate.
    (g) Implementation Required.--The protocol under subsection (b) 
shall be implemented not later than January 1, 2025.

        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.

        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

                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

                    (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).

                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

                technology companies to perform work on behalf of the 
                intelligence community during such year, and an 
                assessment of the capacity of the intelligence 
                community to meet such demand.
                    (E) An identification of each occurrence, during 
                the period covered by the report, in which an emerging 
                technology company withdrew from or declined to accept

SEC. 8101. FEDERAL BREAKWATERS AND JETTIES.

    (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 
U.S.C. 701n(a)(1)) is amended by striking ``in the repair and 
restoration of any federally authorized hurricane or shore protective 
structure'' and all that follows through ``non-Federal sponsor.'' and 
inserting ``in the repair and restoration of any federally authorized 
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 
        measures assistance pursuant to section 5(a) of the Act of 
        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.

                and inserting ``flood and hurricane and storm damages, 
                including the use of natural features or nature-based 
                features''; and
                    (C) in paragraph (4)--

                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).

              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

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;

        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

        the Department's resources to support State and municipal 
        governments in conducting subnational engagement and increasing

        be relevant.

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 
        from being elevated to an Assistant Secretary if the addition 
        of such Assistant Secretary position does not increase the 
        number of Assistant Secretary positions at the Department above 
        the number of such positions authorized under section 1(c)(1) 
        of the State Department Basic Authorities Act of 1956 (22

             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--
            ``(1) is considered by the Secretary of State to be 
        diplomatic or consular premises, consistent with the Vienna 
        Convention on Diplomatic Relations, done at Vienna April 18, 
        1961, and the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, done at 
        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 
        records of the United States Department of State) that 
        recognizes the official status of the United States Government 
        personnel present at the facility.''.
    (e) Guidance and Requirements for Diplomatic Facilities.--
            (1) Guidance for closure of public diplomacy facilities.--
        Section 5606(a) of the Public Diplomacy Modernization Act of 
        2021 (Public Law 117-81; 22 U.S.C. 1475g note) is amended to 
        read as follows:
    ``(a) In General.--In order to preserve public diplomacy facilities 
that are accessible to the publics of foreign countries, not later than 
180 days after the date of the enactment of the Secure Embassy 
Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 2022, the Secretary of State 
shall adopt guidelines to collect and utilize information from each 
diplomatic post at which the construction of a new embassy compound or 
new consulate compound could result in the closure or co-location of an 
American Space that is owned and operated by the United States 
Government, generally known as an American Center, or any other public 
diplomacy facility under the Secure Embassy Construction and 
Counterterrorism Act of 1999 (22 U.S.C. 4865 et seq.).''.
            (2) Security requirements for united states diplomatic 
        facilities.--Section 606(a) of the Secure Embassy Construction 
        and Counterterrorism Act of 1999 (22 U.S.C. 4865(a)) is 
        amended--
                    (A) in paragraph (1)(A), by striking ``the threat'' 
                and inserting ``a range of threats, including that'';
                    (B) in paragraph (2)--
                            (i) in subparagraph (A)--
                                    (I) by inserting ``in a location 
                                that has certain minimum ratings under

                                determined by the Secretary in his or 
                                her discretion'' after ``abroad''; and
                                    (II) by inserting ``, personnel of

                                the Secretary may identify'' after 
                                ``military commander''; and
                            (ii) in subparagraph (B)--
                                    (I) by amending clause (i) to read 
                                as follows:
                            ``(i) In general.--Subject to clause (ii), 
                        the Secretary of State may waive subparagraph 
                        (A) if the Secretary, in consultation with, as 
                        appropriate, the head of each agency employing

                        after taking account of any considerations the 
                        Secretary in his or her discretion considers 
                        relevant, which may include security 
                        conditions.''; and
                                    (II) in clause (ii), by striking 
                                ``(ii) Chancery or consulate 
                                building.--'' and all that follows

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

        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;'';

        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

                    (C) in subparagraph (C), by inserting ``the type 
                and level of security threats such post could 
                encounter, and'' before ``security `tripwires'''.

Security Act (22 U.S.C. 4831) is amended--

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 
        national security, and pursue United States national interests.
            (10) Increasing the number of United States embassies 
        dedicated solely to a Pacific Island country demonstrates the 
        United States' ongoing commitment to the region and to the 
        Pacific Island countries.
    (b) Establishment of Embassies.--
            (1) In general.--As soon as possible, the Secretary 
        should--

                    (B) upgrade the United States consular agency in 
                the Solomon Islands to an embassy; and
                    (C) establish a physical United States Government 
                presence in the Republic of Vanuatu.
            (2) Other strategies.--

                physical infrastructure to ensure the physical and 
                operational safety of embassy personnel, the Secretary 
                may pursue rent or purchase existing buildings or co-
                locate personnel in embassies of like-minded partners, 
                such as Australia and New Zealand.
                    (B) Personnel.--In establishing a physical presence 
                in the Republic of Vanuatu pursuant to paragraph (1), 
                the Secretary may assign 1 or more United States 
                Government personnel to the Republic of Vanuatu as part 
                of the United States mission in Papua New Guinea.
            (3) Waiver authority.--The President may waive the 
        requirements under paragraph (1) for a period of one year if

        that such waiver is necessary to protect the national security 
        interests of the 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.
