    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.

                        (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

                            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.

        (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.--

            of the Department of State and the Inspector General of the United
            States Agency for International Development and in consultation with

                    and collaboration on humanitarian aid and disaster response; and
                        (B) to enable greater cooperation on maritime security and

            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 capabilities in the
            area of responsibility of the United States Indo-Pacific Command,

            partnerships, and other international fora to uphold global security and
            shared principles, with the goal of ensuring the maintenance of a free
            and open Indo-Pacific region.

    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.

                            which, no hunting, fishing, or trapping will be
                            permitted in the Conservation Area, for reasons of
                            public safety, administration, or compliance with
                            applicable laws.

                            under clause (i).
                (7) Grazing.--In the case of land included in the Conservation Area
            on which the Secretary permitted, as of the date of enactment of this
            Act, livestock grazing, the livestock grazing shall be allowed to
            continue, subject to applicable laws (including regulations).
                (8) No buffer zones.--
                        (A) In general.--Nothing in this subsection creates a
                    protective perimeter or buffer zone around the Conservation
                    Area.
                        (B) Activities outside conservation area.--The fact that an
                    activity or use on land outside the Conservation Area can be
                    seen or heard within the Conservation Area shall not preclude
                    the activity or use outside the boundary of the Conservation
                    Area.
                (9) Military overflights.--Nothing in this subsection restricts or
            precludes--
                        (A) low-level overflights of military aircraft over the
                    Conservation Area, including military overflights that can be
                    seen or heard within the Conservation Area;
                        (B) flight testing and evaluation; or
                        (C) the designation or creation of new units of special use
                    airspace, or the establishment of military flight training
                    routes, over the Conservation Area.
                (10) Effect on water rights.--Nothing in this subsection constitutes
            an express or implied reservation of any water rights with respect to
            the Conservation Area.

    SEC. 2904. COLLABORATION WITH STATE AND COUNTY.

        It is the sense of Congress that the Secretary of the Navy and Secretary of

    Nevada, the city of Fallon, Nevada, and affected Indian tribes with the goal of
    preventing catastrophic wildfire and resource damage in the land withdrawn or
    owned within the Fallon Range Training Complex.

            shall be considered to be a reference to the date of enactment of this
            Act; and

        (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 irrigation and pumping
                            facilities, reservoirs, water conservation works,
                            aqueducts, canals, ditches, pipelines, wells, hydropower
                            projects, transmission and other ancillary facilities,
                            and other water diversion, storage, and carriage
                            structures.
                                (ii) Exclusion.--In this paragraph, the term ``water
                            resource facility'' does not include wildlife guzzlers.
                        (B) Restriction on new water resource facilities.--Except as
                    otherwise provided in this section, on and after the date of
                    enactment of this Act, neither the President nor any other
                    officer, employee, or agent of the United States shall fund,
                    assist, authorize, or issue a license or permit for the
                    development of any new water resource facility within a
                    wilderness area.
        (g) Wildfire, Insects, and Disease.--In accordance with section 4(d)(1) of
    the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(1)), the Secretary may take such measures
    in a wilderness area as are necessary for the control of fire, insects, and
    diseases (including, as the Secretary determines to be appropriate, the
    coordination of the activities with a State or local agency).
        (h) Data Collection.--Subject to such terms and conditions as the Secretary
    may prescribe, nothing in this section precludes the installation and
    maintenance of hydrologic, meteorological, or climatological collection devices
    in a wilderness area, if the Secretary determines that the devices and access to
    the devices are essential to flood warning, flood control, or water reservoir
    operation activities.
        (i) Military Overflights.--Nothing in this section restricts or precludes--
                (1) low-level overflights of military aircraft over a wilderness
            area, including military overflights that can be seen or heard within a
            wilderness area;
                (2) flight testing and evaluation; or
                (3) the designation or creation of new units of special use
            airspace, or the establishment of military flight training routes, over
            a wilderness area.
        (j) Wildlife Management.--
                (1) In general.--In accordance with section 4(d)(7) of the
            Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(7)), nothing in this chapter affects
            or diminishes the jurisdiction of the State of Nevada with respect to
            fish and wildlife management, including the regulation of hunting,
            fishing, and trapping, in the wilderness areas.
                (2) Management activities.--In furtherance of the purposes and
            principles of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.), the Secretary
            may conduct any management activities in the wilderness areas that are
            necessary to maintain or restore fish and wildlife populations and the
            habitats to support the populations, if the activities are carried out--
                        (A) consistent with relevant wilderness management plans;
                    and
                        (B) in accordance with--
                                (i) the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1131 et seq.); and
                                (ii) appropriate policies, such as those set forth
                            in Appendix B of the report of the Committee on Interior
                            and Insular Affairs of the House of Representatives
                            accompanying H.R. 2570 of the 101st Congress (House
                            Report 101-405), including the occasional and temporary
                            use of motorized vehicles, if the use, as determined by
                            the Secretary, would promote healthy, viable, and more
                            naturally distributed wildlife populations that would
                            enhance wilderness values with the minimal impact
                            necessary to reasonably accomplish those tasks.
                (3) Existing activities.--In accordance with section 4(d)(1) of the
            Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(1)) and in accordance with appropriate
            policies such as those set forth in Appendix B of the Committee on
            Interior and Insular Affairs of the House of Representatives
            accompanying H.R. 2570 of the 101st Congress (House Report 101-405), the
            State may continue to use aircraft (including helicopters) to survey,
            capture, transplant, monitor, and provide water for wildlife
            populations.
                (4) Wildlife water development projects.--Subject to subsection (f),
            the Secretary shall authorize structures and facilities, including
            existing structures and facilities, for wildlife water development
            projects, including guzzlers, in the wilderness areas if--
                        (A) the structures and facilities would, as determined by
                    the Secretary, enhance wilderness values by promoting healthy,
                    viable, and more naturally distributed wildlife populations; and
                        (B) the visual impacts of the structures and facilities on
                    the wilderness areas can reasonably be minimized.
                (5) Hunting, fishing, and trapping.--
                        (A) In general.--The Secretary may designate areas in which,
                    and establish periods during which, for reasons of public
                    safety, administration, or compliance with applicable laws, no
                    hunting, fishing, or trapping will be permitted in the
                    wilderness areas.
                        (B) Consultation.--Except in emergencies, the Secretary
                    shall consult with the appropriate State agency and notify the
                    public before taking any action under subparagraph (A).
                (6) Cooperative agreement.--
                        (A) In general.--The State of Nevada, including a designee
                    of the State, may conduct wildlife management activities in the
                    wilderness areas--
                                (i) in accordance with the terms and conditions
                            specified in the cooperative agreement between the
                            Secretary and the State entitled ``Memorandum of
                            Understanding between the Bureau of Land Management and
                            the Nevada Department of Wildlife Supplement No. 9'' and
                            signed November and December 2003, including any
                            amendments to the cooperative agreement agreed to by the
                            Secretary and the State of Nevada; and
                                (ii) subject to all applicable laws (including
                            regulations).
                        (B) References.--For the purposes of this subsection, any
                    references to Clark County, Nevada, in the cooperative agreement
                    described this paragraph shall be considered to be a reference
                    to Churchill or Lander County, Nevada, as applicable.

    SEC. 2906. RELEASE OF WILDERNESS STUDY AREAS.

        (a) Finding.--Congress finds that, for the purposes of section 603(c) of the
    Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. 1782(c)), the public
    land in Churchill County, Nevada, that is administered by the Bureau of Land
    Management in the following areas has been adequately studied for wilderness

        (a) Productivity Expectations for Readjustment Counselors of Vet Centers.--
                (1) Evaluation of productivity expectations.--Not later than one
            year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of
            Veterans Affairs shall evaluate productivity expectations for

            respect to following:
                        (A) Any potential effects of productivity expectations,
                    whether positive or negative, on client care and the welfare of
                    readjustment counselors.
                        (B) Distances readjustment counselors may travel to
                    appointments, especially with respect to serving rural veterans.
                        (C) The possibility that some veterans may not want to use
                    nor benefit from telehealth or group counseling.
                        (D) Availability and access of veteran populations to

                    counselors, including with respect to 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 how productivity
                    expectations are calculated.
                        (H) Such other criteria as the Secretary considers
                    appropriate.

                            negative, including through a survey containing open-
                            and close-ended questions, on all items under paragraph

    SEC. 5511. FINDINGS AND STATEMENT OF POLICY.

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

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

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

                  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

                (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 develop a
                    holistic strategy to respond to sharp power operations,
                    including election interference; and
                        (C) media training for Taiwan officials and other Taiwan
                    entities targeted by disinformation campaigns;
                (2) the proposed response to political influence operations that
            includes an assessment of the extent of influence exerted 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 entities;
                (3) support for exchanges and other technical assistance to

            misinformation and disinformation in the Chinese Communist Party's
            propaganda.

    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 subsection (d) in
                            implementing the strategy; and
                                (iii) forming policy recommendations for the
                            implementation of relevant United States authorities to
                            respond to instances of PRC coercive economic practices;
                        (B) consult with United States allies and partners on the

               PART 3--INCLUSION OF TAIWAN IN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS

    SEC. 5516. FINDINGS.

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

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

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

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

        (a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of
    this Act, the Secretary of State, in consultation with other Federal departments
    and agencies as appropriate, shall submit to the appropriate congressional
    committees a strategy--
                (1) to advance Taiwan''s meaningful participation in a prioritized
            set of international organizations (IOs); and
                (2) that responds to growing pressure from the PRC on foreign
            governments, IOs, commercial actors, and civil society organizations to
            comply with its ``One-China Principle'', with respect to Taiwan.
        (b) Matters to Be Included.--The strategy required under subsection (a)
    should include the following elements:
                (1) An assessment of the methods the PRC uses to coerce actors to
            into adhering to its ``One-China Principle.'' The methods should include
            those employed against governments, IOs, and civil society
            organizations. The assessment should also include pressure on commercial
            actors, to the extent it is relevant in the context of Taiwan's
            meaningful participation in IOs.
                (2) An assessment of the policies of foreign governments toward the
            PRC and Taiwan, to identify likeminded allies and partners who might
            become public or private partners in the strategy.
                (3) A systematic analysis of all IOs, as practicable, to identify
            IOs that best lend themselves to advancing Taiwan's participation.
                (4) A plan to expand economic, security, and diplomatic engagement
            with nations that have demonstrably strengthened, enhanced, or upgraded
            relations with Taiwan, in accordance with United States interests.
                (5) A survey of IOs that have allowed Taiwan's meaningful
            participation, including an assessment of whether any erosion in
            Taiwan's engagement has occurred within those organizations and how
            Taiwan's participation has positively strengthened the capacity and
            activity of these organizations, thereby providing positive models for
            Taiwan's inclusion in other similar forums.
                (6) A list of no more than 20 IOs at which the United States
            Government will prioritize for using its voice, vote, and influence to
            advance Taiwan's meaningful participation over the three-year period
            following the date of enactment of this Act. The list should be derived
            from the IOs identified in paragraph (3).
                (7) A description of the diplomatic strategies and the coalitions
            the United States Government plans to develop to implement paragraph
            (6).
        (c) Form of Report.--The strategy required in subsection (a) shall be
    classified, but it may include an unclassified summary.
        (d) Support for Meaningful Participation.--The Permanent Representative of
    the United States to the United Nations and other relevant United States
    officials shall actively support Taiwan's meaningful participation in all
    appropriate international organizations.

    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.

    SEC. 5525. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON EXPANDING UNITED STATES ECONOMIC RELATIONS WITH
                  TAIWAN.

        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 intensive study in Mandarin and placement as
            Fellows in a Taiwanese civic institution;
                (2) to provide for eligible United States personnel--
                        (A) to learn or strengthen Mandarin Chinese language skills;
                    and
                        (B) to expand their understanding of the political economy
                    of Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific region; and
                (3) to better position the United States to advance its economic,
            security, and human rights interests and values in the Indo-Pacific
            region.

    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

        (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 sanctions imposed

    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.

                (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.

            has operated to respond to crisis situations in the past, and how
            authority to transfer unobligated balances from expired accounts would

            the future.
                (10) A detailed plan for how the authorization of appropriations
            under section 5584 will operate alongside and augment existing

            strategic maritime chokepoints in the Middle East and North Africa;
                (7) the Islamic Republic of Iran has delivered hundreds of armed

                (8) the United States must--

                        (C) counter regional and global terrorism of the Islamic
                    Republic of Iran in a manner that minimizes the threat posed by

                        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

    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

            implementation of its final rule, published on March 21, 2019, amending
            section 206.48(b) of title 44, Code of Federal Regulations (regarding
            factors considered when evaluating a Governor's request for a major
            disaster declaration), which revised the factors that the Agency

            declaration authorizing individual assistance under the Robert T.

                            construed as a hardship; and
                                ``(ii) waive a debt owed to the United States

    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

                        (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.--

            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

                        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.

                        (A) means an entity or proxy that is controlled, in whole or
                    in part, by a foreign adversary of the United States and is used
                    by such foreign adversary in connection with a gray zone
                    activity; and
                        (B) includes a state-owned enterprise of a foreign adversary
                    that is so used.
        (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
                        (C) an assessment of the risks and potential benefits, with
                    respect to the interests of the United States, that may result
                    from the seizure of such gray zone assets to hold the assets at
                    risk.
                (2) Considerations.--In identifying opportunities to hold a gray
            zone asset of Russia at risk under paragraph (1)(B), the National
            Intelligence Council shall consider the following:
                        (A) The effect on civilians of holding the gray zone asset
                    at risk.
                        (B) The extent to which the gray zone asset is substantially
                    state-owned or substantially controlled 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.
                        (E) Such other factors as the National Intelligence Council
                    may determine appropriate.
                (3) Appendix.--The intelligence community assessment under paragraph
            (1) shall include an appendix that contains a list of the categories of
            gray zone assets of Russia, with specific examples of--
                        (A) gray zone assets in each category; and
                        (B) for each such gray zone asset listed, the ways in which
                    Russia uses the asset to advance its gray zone activities.
                (4) Submission.--The Director, consistent with the protection of
            sources and methods, shall submit to the appropriate committees of
            Congress the intelligence community assessment under paragraph (1).
                (5) Form.--The intelligence community assessment under paragraph (1)
            shall be submitted in unclassified form, but may contain a classified
            annex.

                          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;
                        (B) Iraq in the face of the rapid emergence and advancement
                    in 2014 of Islamic State in Iraq and Syria; and
                        (C) Ukraine and Russia during the initial phase of the
                    invasion and march toward Kyiv by Russia in February 2022.
                (3) The extent to which--
                        (A) the assessments described in paragraph (2) depended on
                    the observations of personnel of the United States Armed Forces
                    who had trained Afghan, Iraqi, and Ukrainian armed forces; and
                        (B) such observations reflected any standardized, objective
                    methodology.
                (4) Whether shortcomings in assessing the military will to fight and
            the national will to fight may have affected the capacity of the
            intelligence community to provide ``early warning'' about the collapse
            of government forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
                (5) The extent to which ``red teaming'' was used to test the
            assessments described in paragraph (2).
                (6) The extent to which dissenting opinions of intelligence analysts
            were highlighted in final written products presented to senior
            policymakers of the United States.
                (7) The extent to which analysts and supervisors adhered to the
            policies, procedures, directives, and best practices of the intelligence
            community.
                (8) Recommendations for analyses by the intelligence community going
            forward to incorporate lessons learned and enhance the quality of future
            analytical products to more accurately reflect the military will to
            fight and the national will to fight and improve the capacity of the
            intelligence community to accurately predict the success or failure of
            the armed forces of a foreign country.
        (e) Annex.--In submitting the report under subsection (c) to the
    congressional intelligence committees, the Subcommittee on Defense of the
    Committee on Appropriations of the Senate, and the Subcommittee on Defense of
    the Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives, the Director
    shall also include an accompanying annex, which shall be classified, providing
    an inventory of the following:
                (1) Collection gaps and challenges that may have affected the

            mitigate such gaps and challenges.
        (f) Form.--The report under subsection (c) may be submitted in classified
    form, but if so submitted, shall include an unclassified summary of key
    findings, consistent with the protection of intelligence sources and methods.

                    against humanity, and war crimes, including with respect to
                    missing persons and suspected atrocity crime scenes); and
                        (C) reassessing archived geospatial imagery containing
                    indicators of war crimes, other atrocities, forced
                    disappearances, and atrocity crime scenes.
                (2) Continue to make available inputs to the Atrocity Warning Task
            Force for the development of the Department of State Atrocity Early

    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).

            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

            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.

                    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

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

    SEC. 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.

                  ON LANDS OWNED BY THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS.

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

    preclude--
                (1) the Unit for Subnational Diplomacy Office from being elevated to
            a bureau within the Department; or

                        (B) upon selection as a candidate for entry into an
                    internship program of the Department, a participant in such

                    so allows such participant to receive college or university

                (2) Exception.--The transition required under paragraph (1) shall
            not apply to unpaid internship programs of the Department that are part

                    under paragraph (1)(A) with respect to a particular unpaid
                    internship program if the Secretary, not later than 30 days
                    after making a determination that the conversion of such
                    internship program to a compensated internship program would not
                    be consistent with effective management goals, submits a report

                                (i) the appropriate congressional committees;

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

                     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.''.

                (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:

    accessible to the publics of foreign countries, not later than 180 days after
    the date of the enactment of the Secure Embassy Construction and

    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.).''.

    SEC. 9302. DIPLOMATIC SUPPORT AND SECURITY.

        (a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the ``Diplomatic Support and
    Security Act of 2022''.
        (b) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) A robust overseas diplomatic presence is part of an effective
            foreign policy, particularly in volatile environments where a flexible
            and timely diplomatic response can be decisive in preventing and
            addressing conflict.
                (2) Diplomats routinely put themselves and their families at great
            personal risk to serve their country overseas where they face threats
            related to international terrorism, violent conflict, and public health.
                (3) The Department has a remarkable record of protecting personnel
            while enabling an enormous amount of global diplomatic activity, often
            in unsecure and remote places and facing a variety of evolving risks and
            threats. With support from Congress, the Department has revised policy,
            improved physical security through retrofitting and replacing old
            facilities, deployed additional security personnel and armored vehicles,
            and greatly enhanced training requirements and training facilities,
            including the new Foreign Affairs Security Training Center in
            Blackstone, Virginia.
                (4) Diplomatic missions rely on robust staffing and ambitious
            external engagement to advance United States interests as diverse as
            competing with China's malign influence around the world, fighting
            terrorism and transnational organized crime, preventing and addressing
            violent conflict and humanitarian disasters, promoting United States
            businesses and trade, protecting the rights of marginalized groups,
            addressing climate change, and preventing pandemic disease.
                (5) Efforts to protect personnel overseas have often resulted in
            inhibiting diplomatic activity and limiting engagement between embassy
            personnel and local governments and populations.
                (6) Given that Congress currently provides annual appropriations in
            excess of $1,900,000,000 for embassy security, construction, and
            maintenance, the Department should be able to ensure a robust overseas
            presence without inhibiting the ability of diplomats to--
                        (A) meet outside United States secured facilities with
                    foreign leaders to explain, defend, and advance United States
                    priorities;
                        (B) understand and report on foreign political, social, and
                    economic conditions through meeting and interacting with
                    community officials outside of United States facilities;
                        (C) provide United States citizen services; and
                        (D) collaborate and, at times, compete with other diplomatic
                    missions, particularly those, such as that of the People's
                    Republic of China, that do not have restrictions on meeting
                    locations.
                (7) Given these stakes, Congress has a responsibility to empower,
            support, and hold the Department accountable for implementing an
            aggressive strategy to ensure a robust overseas presence that mitigates
            potential risks and adequately considers the myriad direct and indirect
            consequences of a lack of diplomatic presence.
        (c) Encouraging Expeditionary Diplomacy.--
                (1) Purpose.--Section 102(b) of the Diplomatic Security Act of 1986
            (22 U.S.C. 4801(b)) is amended--
                        (A) by amending paragraph (3) to read as follows:
                ``(3) to promote strengthened security measures, institutionalize a
            culture of learning, and, in the case of apparent gross negligence or
            breach of duty, recommend that the Secretary investigate accountability
            for United States Government personnel with security-related
            responsibilities under chief of mission authority;'';
                        (B) by redesignating paragraphs (4) and (5) as paragraphs
                    (5) and (6), respectively; and
                        (C) by inserting after paragraph (3) the following:

            avoidance, that enables the Department of State to pursue its vital
            goals with full knowledge that it is neither desirable nor possible for
            the Department to avoid all risks;''.
                (2) Briefings on embassy security.--Section 105(a)(1) of the
            Diplomatic Security Act (22 U.S.C. 4804(a)) is amended--
                        (A) by striking ``any plans to open or reopen a high risk,
                    high threat post'' and inserting ``progress towards opening or
                    reopening a high risk, high threat post, and the risk to
                    national security of the continued closure or any suspension of
                    operations and remaining barriers to doing so'';
                        (B) in subparagraph (A), by inserting ``the risk to United
                    States national security of the post's continued closure or
                    suspension of operations,'' after ``national security of the
                    United States,''; and
                        (C) in subparagraph (C), by inserting ``the type and level
                    of security threats such post could encounter, and'' before
                    ``security `tripwires'''.
        (d) Security Review Committees.--Section 301 of the Diplomatic Security Act
    (22 U.S.C. 4831) is amended--
                (1) in the section heading, by striking ``accountability review
            boards'' and inserting ``security review committees'';
                (2) in subsection (a)--
                        (A) by amending paragraph (1) to read as follows:
                ``(1) Convening the security review committee.--In any case of a
            serious security incident involving loss of life, serious injury, or
            significant destruction of property at, or related to, a United States

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

    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

                         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.

                (2) to improve the effectiveness of vessel response plans by--
                        (A) systematically reviewing the capacity of an oil spill
                    response organization identified in a vessel response plan to
                    provide the specific response resources, such as private
                    personnel, equipment, other vessels identified in such vessel
                    response plan; and
                        (B) approving a vessel response plan only after confirming
                    the identified oil spill response organization has the capacity
                    to provide such response resources;
                (3) to update, not less frequently than annually, information
            contained in the Coast Guard Response Resource Inventory and other Coast
            Guard tools used to document the availability and status of oil spill

                    knowledge and awareness of vessel response plan requirements,
                    including knowledge relating to the evaluation of proposed
                    alternatives to national planning requirements; and
                        (F) processes and standards which evaluate the consequences
                    of reporting inaccurate data in vessel response plans submitted
                    to the Commandant pursuant to part 300 of title 40, Code of
                    Federal Regulations, and submitted for storage in the Marine

            continuity of planning activities under this section, including by
            identifying ways in which civilian staffing may improve the continuity
            of operations; and
                (4) to increase Federal Government engagement with State, local, and
            Tribal governments and stakeholders so as to strengthen coordination and
            efficiency of oil spill responses.

                    the enactment of this Act, the Commandant shall publish an

    area, as determined by the Commandant, in which it is difficult, even with a
    vehicle or an otherwise-available mode of transportation, to obtain affordable,
    high-quality fresh food in the immediate area in which members of the Coast
    Guard serve and reside.
