subsection (a) unless the Secretary of the Navy certifies to the congressional 
defense committees, in writing, not later than 30 days before entry into the 
contract, each of the following, which shall be prepared by the milestone 
decision authority for the Ship-to-Shore Connector program:
            (1) The use of such a contract is consistent with the Chief of Naval 
        Operations' projected force structure requirements for Ship-to-Shore 
        Connector class craft.
            (2) The use of such a contract will result in significant savings 
        compared to the total anticipated costs of carrying out the program 
        through annual contracts. In certifying cost savings under the preceding 
        sentence, the Secretary shall include a written explanation of--
                    (A) the estimated end cost and appropriated funds by fiscal 
                year, by craft, without the authority provided in subsection 
                (a);
                    (B) the estimated end cost and appropriated funds by fiscal 
                year, by craft, with the authority provided in subsection (a);
                    (C) the estimated cost savings or increase by fiscal year, 
                by craft, with the authority provided in subsection (a);
                    (D) the discrete actions that will accomplish such cost 
                savings or avoidance; and
                    (E) the contractual actions that will ensure the estimated 
                cost savings are realized.
            (3) There is a reasonable expectation that throughout the 
        contemplated contract period the Secretary of the Navy will request 
        funding for the contract at the level required to avoid contract 
        cancellation.
            (4) There is a stable design for the property to be acquired and the 
        technical risks associated with such property are not excessive.
            (5) The estimates of both the cost of the contract and the 
        anticipated cost avoidance through the use of a contract authorized 
        under subsection (a) are realistic, including a description of the basis 
        for such estimates.

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) 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

                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

        an agreement with a federally funded research and development center 
        under which the center shall conduct a study to assess whether the 
        covered ethics requirements have had an effect on--

                the potential for such violations at other Federal agencies, and 
                an analysis of whether ethical standards that are applied 
                exclusively to Department of Defense personnel are justified.
                    (C) An examination of how covered ethics requirements have 
                affected, or are likely to affect, the hiring and retention of

                experience or training, at the Department of Defense in 
                comparison to other Federal agencies that are not subject to

                interpretation of the requirement referred to in paragraph

                            (ii) the ability of the Department of Defense to 
                        detect, deter, prevent, and redress violations of 
                        ethical standards, including conflicts of interest, by 
                        Department of Defense personnel.
                    (E) An examination of how the ethics requirements referred 
                to in subparagraphs (B) and (C) of paragraph (3) may affect the 
                ability of the Department of Defense to obtain expertise from 
                industry and other groups in support of technology development, 
                supply chain security, and other national security matters.
                    (F) An examination of whether the removal or alteration of 
                any covered ethics requirement may adversely affect the ability 
                of the Department of Defense to detect, deter, prevent, and 
                redress violations of ethical standards, including conflicts of 
                interest, by Department of Defense personnel.
                    (G) An examination of whether the removal or alteration of 
                any covered ethics requirement may adversely affect the ability 
                of the Department of Defense to negotiate and effectuate arms-
                length transactions.
                    (H) Any suggested changes to any covered ethics requirement 
                to further the establishment and maintenance of ethical 
                standards, while also supporting the ability of the Department 
                of Defense to hire and retain personnel and obtain expertise 
                from academia, think tanks, industry, and other groups to

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

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) continued assistance to Ukraine as it fights against the unjust 
        and unprovoked attack by Russia is of critical importance to United 
        States national security interests, and oversight and transparency for 
        such assistance is essential to ensure effective and sustained support;
            (2) the executive branch has established the interagency Ukraine 
        Oversight Working Group, which focuses on conducting comprehensive 
        oversight, and issued the interagency U.S. Plan to Counter Illicit 
        Diversion of Certain Advanced Conventional Weapons in Eastern Europe, a 
        whole-of-government effort to advance accountability and end-use 
        monitoring of weapons provided in response to the Ukraine crisis, and 
        continued attention and regular briefings to relevant congressional 
        oversight committees on such efforts is imperative;
            (3) each United States department and agency providing or 
        facilitating assistance to Ukraine should continue to implement and 
        institutionalize appropriate transparency, accountability, and end-use 
        monitoring measures, including exploring creative approaches to 
        overcoming the challenges associated with delivering assistance during 
        an active armed conflict, as is detailed in the interagency Plan to 
        Counter Illicit Diversion;
            (4) Inspectors General must continue to carry out comprehensive 
        oversight and conduct reviews, audits, investigations, and inspections 
        of United States support and activities carried out in response to 
        Russia's further invasion of Ukraine, and provide regular briefings to 
        the appropriate congressional committees on their findings;
            (5) the United States and its allies and partners should continue to 
        support Ukrainian anti-corruption institutions and e-platforms, 
        including the National Agency for Corruption Prevention, the National 
        Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, and the Specialized Anti-Corruption 
        Prosecutor's Office, in their work to ensure effective assistance 
        delivery and prevent incidents of waste, fraud, and abuse; and
            (6) Ukrainian authorities should also continue to establish new 
        transparency, accountability, and end-use monitoring initiatives both 
        independently and in partnership with relevant United States departments 
        and agencies and other international partners, and the United States 
        should continue to work with counterparts in Ukraine and other countries 
        supporting their efforts to further mutual efforts to strengthen and 
        institutionalize accountability measures and mechanisms.
    (b) Report.--

        the authority to carry out such joint military exercises, including

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

by--
            (1) enhancing cooperation with Japan, consistent with the Treaty of 
        Mutual Cooperation and Security Between the United States of America and

        objective of a peaceful and stable Korean Peninsula;

        and the United States (commonly known as ``AUKUS'')--
                    (A) to advance shared security objectives;
                    (B) to accelerate the fielding of advanced military 
                capabilities; and
                    (C) to build the capacity of emerging partners;
            (4) advancing United States alliances with the Philippines and

            (5) broadening United States engagement with India, including

                Pacific region through bilateral and multilateral engagements 
                and participation in military exercises, expanded defense trade, 
                and collaboration on humanitarian aid and disaster response; and
                    (B) to enable greater cooperation on maritime security and 
                the threat of global pandemics, including COVID-19;
            (6) strengthening the United States partnership with Taiwan, 
        consistent with the Three Communiques, the Taiwan Relations Act (Public 
        Law 96-8; 22 U.S.C. 3301 et seq.), and the Six Assurances, with the goal 
        of improving Taiwan's defensive military capabilities and promoting 
        peaceful cross-strait relations;
            (7) reinforcing the status of the Republic of Singapore as a Major

        of the Republic of Singapore and the Armed Forces of the United States, 
        including through participation in combined exercises and training;
            (8) engaging with the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic

        illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing;
            (9) collaborating with Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and other

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.

            (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

            (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.

the Interior should collaborate with the State of Nevada, Churchill County, 
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.

    (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.--

                        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.

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

                broadband and telehealth.

                Centers need additional training or guidance on how productivity

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 
and implement a strategy to respond to--
            (1) covert, coercive, and corrupting activities carried out to 
        advance the Chinese Communist Party's ``United Front'' work related to

        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

        Party in Taiwan on local political parties, financial institutions, 
        media organizations, and other entities;

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 
                feasibility and desirability of collectively identifying, 
                assessing, and responding to PRC coercive economic practices, as 
                well as actions that could be taken to expand coordination with 
                the goal of ensuring a consistent, coherent, and collective 
                response to such practices and establishing long-term deterrence 
                of such practices;
                    (C) effectively engage the United States private sector, 
                particularly sectors, groups, or other entities that are 
                susceptible to such PRC coercive economic practices, on concerns 
                related to such practices; and
                    (D) develop and implement a process for regularly sharing 
                relevant information, including classified information to the 
                extent appropriate and practicable, on such PRC coercive 
                economic practices with United States allies, partners, and the 
                private sector.
            (2) Consultation.--In carrying out its duties under this subsection, 
        the Task Force should regularly consult, to the extent necessary and 
        appropriate, with the following:
                    (A) Relevant stakeholders in the private sector.
                    (B) Federal departments and agencies that are not

        National Security Council;
            (2) appoint the vice chair of the Task Force from among the staff of 
        the National Economic Council; and
            (3) determine the Federal departments and agencies that will serve 
        on the task force, and direct the head of those agencies to appoint 
        personnel at the level of Assistant Secretary or above to participate in 
        the Task Force.
    (e) Reports.--
            (1) Initial report.--Not later than 1 year after the date of the 
        enactment of this Act, the Task Force shall submit to Congress a report 
        that includes the following elements:
                    (A) A comprehensive review of the array of economic tools 
                the Government of the People's Republic of China (PRC) employs 
                or could employ in the future to coerce other governments and 
                non-PRC companies (including United States companies) including 
                the Government of the PRC's continued efforts to codify informal 
                practices into its domestic law.
                    (B) The strategy required by subsection (c)(1)(A).

                        economic practices; and
                            (ii) the inappropriate use of economic tools, 
                        including those authorized under the laws and 
                        regulations of the PRC.
                    (D) A comprehensive review of the array of tools the United 
                States Government employs or could employ to respond to economic

           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.

            (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).

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.

              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;

        ensure that bilateral global health assistance programs are effectively 
        managed and coordinated, as necessary and appropriate to achieve the 
        purposes of this subtitle, to contribute to the strengthening of health 
        systems for global health security and pandemic prevention,

        effective early warning systems, at the partner country, regional, and 
        international levels, that utilize innovative information and analytical 
        tools and robust review processes to track, document, analyze, and

        essential to enhance the capacity of key stakeholders to effectively 
        operationalize early warning and execute multi-sectoral emergency 
        operations during an infectious disease outbreak, particularly in 
        countries and areas that deliberately withhold critical global health 
        data and delay access during an infectious disease outbreak, in advance 
        of the next infectious disease outbreak with pandemic potential.
            (2) Public health emergencies of international concern.--The 
        Secretary of Health and Human Services, in coordination with the 
        Secretary of State, should work with the World Health Organization and 
        like-minded member states to adopt an approach toward assessing 
        infectious disease threats under the International Health Regulations 
        (2005) for the World Health Organization to identify and transparently 
        communicate, on an ongoing basis, varying levels of risk leading up to a 
        declaration by the Director General of the World Health Organization of

        Services, in coordination with the Secretary of State, the Administrator 
        of the USAID, the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and 
        Prevention, and the heads of other relevant Federal departments and

        Health Regulations (2005) and the objectives of the World Health 
        Organization's Health Emergencies Programme, the Global Health Security 
        Agenda, and national actions plans for health security, should work, in 
        cooperation with the World Health Organization, with partner countries, 
        and other key stakeholders, to support the establishment, strengthening, 
        and rapid response capacity of global health emergency operations 
        centers, at the partner country and international levels, including 
        efforts--
                    (A) to collect and share de-identified public health data, 
                assess risk, and operationalize early warning;

SEC. 5572. SANCTIONS AND POLICY COORDINATION FOR BURMA.

    (a) In General.--The head of the Office of Sanctions Coordination in the 
Department of State should develop a comprehensive strategy for the 
implementation of the full range of United States diplomatic capabilities to 
implement Burma-related sanctions in order to promote human rights and the 
restoration of civilian government in Burma.
    (b) Matters to Be Included.--The strategy described in subsection (a) should 
include plans and steps to--
            (1) coordinate the sanctions policies of the United States with 
        relevant bureaus and offices in the Department of State and other 
        relevant United States Government agencies;
            (2) conduct relevant research and vetting of entities and 
        individuals that may be subject to sanctions and coordinate with other 
        United States Government agencies and international financial 
        intelligence units to assist in efforts to enforce anti-money laundering 
        and anti-corruption laws and regulations;
            (3) promote a comprehensive international effort to impose and 
        enforce multilateral sanctions with respect to Burma;
            (4) support interagency United States Government efforts, including 
        efforts of the United States Chief of Mission to Burma, the United 
        States Ambassador to ASEAN, and the United States Permanent

                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

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.

        2020 are dropped; and
            (4) the 2008 constitution of Burma has been amended or replaced to 
        place the Burmese military under civilian oversight and ensure that the 
        Burmese military no longer automatically receives 25 percent of seats in 
        Burma's state, regional, and national Hluttaws.
    (c) Notification for Early Sunset of Sanctions on Individuals.--
            (1) In general.--The President may terminate the application of

                    (A) a notice of and justification for the termination; and
                    (B) a notice that the individual is not engaging in the 
                activity or is no longer occupying the position that was the 
                basis for the sanctions or has taken significant verifiable 
                steps toward stopping the activity.

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.

        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.

        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

        international inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency and 
        has obstructed their ability to inspect facilities as well as data and 
        recordings collected by surveillance equipment across Iran;
            (3) the Islamic Republic of Iran continues to advance missile and 
        drone programs, which are a threat to the national security of the 
        United States, Israel, and other allies and partners;
            (4) the Islamic Republic of Iran continues to support proxies in the 
        Middle East in a manner that--

        strategic maritime chokepoints in the Middle East and North Africa;
            (7) the Islamic Republic of Iran has delivered hundreds of armed 
        drones to the Russian Federation, which will enable Vladimir Putin to 
        continue the assault against Ukraine in direct opposition of the 
        national security interests of the United States; and
            (8) the United States must--

                    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

        including continuing threats from Iran.

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

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

                        based on an error by the Agency and such debt shall be 
                        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 
                assessment teams.
                    (C) The training and experience of such staff described in 
                subparagraph (B).
                    (D) A calculation of the average amount of time disaster 
                assessment teams described in subparagraph (A) are deployed to a 
                disaster area.
                    (E) The efforts of the Agency to maintain a consistent 
                liaison between the Agency and State, local, tribal, and 
                territorial officials within a disaster area.
    (c) Preliminary Damage Assessment.--

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

                        requirements; and
                    (B) identify opportunities for streamlining the 
                consideration of preliminary damage assessments by the Agency,

                specific disasters result in longer preliminary damage 
                assessments; and
                    (C) any additional legislative recommendations necessary to 
                improve the preliminary damage assessment process.

                    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-

        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.
    (d) Report on United States Efforts.--Not later than 90 days after the date 
of the enactment of this Act, and consistent with the protection of intelligence

        Russian military commanders, troops, political leaders and the Russian 
        people aware of efforts to identify and prosecute those responsible for 
        the commission of war crimes or other atrocities during the full-scale 
        Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, and of the types of acts that may 
        be prosecutable.
            (3) The process for a domestic, foreign, or international court or 
        tribunal to request and obtain from the United States Government

                    (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

        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.

congressional intelligence committees, the Subcommittee on Defense of the 
Committee on Appropriations of the Senate, and the Subcommittee on Defense of

        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.

                    (A) a plan for the establishment of a centralized office or 
                offices within each appropriate element of the intelligence 
                community, to be known as the ``Office of Commercial 
                Integration'', for the purpose of--

                the advisability of implementing such plan, including an 
                assessment of--
                            (i) whether there should be a single Office of 
                        Commercial Integration for the intelligence community or 
                        whether each element of the intelligence community shall 
                        establish such an Office;
                            (ii) the costs and benefits of the implementation of 
                        such plan; and
                            (iii) whether there is within any element of the 
                        intelligence community an existing office or program 
                        similar to the proposed Office of Commercial 
                        Integration.

        include the following:
                    (A) A recommendation by the Director, based on the findings 
                of the study under paragraph (1)(B), on--
                            (i) how the plan under paragraph (1)(A) compares to 
                        specific alternative actions of the intelligence 
                        community that could be taken to assist persons desiring 
                        to submit an offer for a contract with the intelligence 
                        community and assist with the procurement of commercial 
                        products and commercial services; and

                community or across the Offices of Commercial Integration, 
                depending on the findings of the study under paragraph (1)(B).

                    (J) Draft guidelines that would require the Office or 
                Offices of Commercial Integration to appoint and assign

        and
            (5) the Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives.
    (b) Protocol.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of 
this Act, the Director of National Intelligence, in coordination with the 
Secretary of Defense and the heads of the elements of the intelligence 
community, shall develop and submit to the appropriate committees of Congress a 
single protocol setting forth policies and procedures relating to authorizations 
to operate for Department of Defense or intelligence community systems held by 
industry providers.
    (c) Limitation.--The protocol under subsection (b) shall be limited to 
authorizations to operate for Department of Defense and intelligence community 
systems.
    (d) Elements.--The protocol under subsection (b) shall include, at a 
minimum, the following:
            (1) A policy for reciprocal recognition, as appropriate, among the 
        elements of the intelligence community and the Department of Defense of 
        authorizations to operate held by commercial providers. Such reciprocal 
        recognition shall be limited to authorizations to operate for systems 
        that collect, process, maintain, use, share, disseminate, or dispose of 
        data classified at an equal or lower classification level than the 
        original authorization.
            (2) Procedures under which, subject to such criteria as may be 
        prescribed by the Director of National Intelligence jointly with the 
        Secretary of Defense, a provider that holds an authorization to operate 
        for a Department of Defense or intelligence community system may provide 
        to the head of an element of the intelligence community or the 
        Department of Defense the most recently updated version of any software, 
        data, or application for use on such system without being required to 
        submit an application for new or renewed authorization.
            (3) Procedures for the review, renewal, and revocation of

        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).

        Department of Defense responsible for implementing this section on 
        behalf of the Secretary and leading coordination across the Department 
        of Defense for such implementation; and
            (3) each head of an element of the intelligence community shall 
        designate an official of that element responsible for implementing this 
        section and overseeing implementation of the protocol under subsection 
        (b) with respect to the element.
    (f) Documentation Requirements.--Under the protocol under subsection (b), no 
head of a Federal agency may commence the operation of a system using an 
authorization to operate granted by another Federal agency without possessing 
documentation of the original authorization to operate.
    (g) Implementation Required.--The protocol under subsection (b) shall be 
implemented not later than January 1, 2025.

                contractors under this section may be granted access to 
                sensitive compartmented information facilities for such purpose.
                    (E) An estimate of the maximum number of contractors that 
                may be provided access to sensitive compartmented information 
                facilities for such purpose, taking into account the matters 
                specified in subparagraphs (A) and (B).
                    (F) Policies to ensure the efficient and narrow use of 
                sensitive compartmented information facilities for such purpose, 
                including a timeline for the length of such use by a contractor

                terminate access to the sensitive compartmented information 
                facility by such contractor upon--
                            (i) the expiration of the contract or agreement of 
                        the contractor; or
                            (ii) a determination that the contractor no longer 
                        has a need for such access to fulfill the terms of such

                        compartmented information facility for such purpose does 
                        not exceed the market average for the Director of 
                        National Intelligence or the Secretary of Defense to 
                        build, certify, and maintain a sensitive compartmented

        intelligence services.
            (2) The legislative branch relies on the executive branch to provide 
        timely and urgent tactical and operational information to ensure that 
        Congress can protect the constitutional officers, personnel, and 
        facilities of Congress and the institution of Congress more broadly.
            (3) The legislative branch currently is not receiving this 
        information in a timely manner nor as a matter of course.
    (c) Definitions.--In this section--
            (1) the term ``congressional leadership'' means--
                    (A) the Majority and Minority Leader of the Senate with 
                respect to an agreement with the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper

                         Subtitle A--General Provisions

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.

        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

                 TITLE XCIII--EMBASSY SECURITY AND CONSTRUCTION

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

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

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

    ``In this title, the terms `United States diplomatic facility' and 
`diplomatic facility' mean any chancery, consulate, or other office that--
            ``(1) is considered by the Secretary of State to be diplomatic or 
        consular premises, consistent with the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic 
        Relations, done at Vienna April 18, 1961, and the Vienna Convention on 
        Consular Relations, done at Vienna April 24, 1963, and was notified to 
        the host government as such; or
            ``(2) is otherwise subject to a publicly available bilateral 
        agreement with the host government (contained in the records of the 
        United States Department of State) that recognizes the official status 
        of the United States Government personnel present at the facility.''.
    (e) Guidance and Requirements for Diplomatic Facilities.--
            (1) Guidance for closure of public diplomacy facilities.--Section 
        5606(a) of the Public Diplomacy Modernization Act of 2021 (Public Law 
        117-81; 22 U.S.C. 1475g note) is amended to read as follows:
    ``(a) In General.--In order to preserve public diplomacy facilities that are 
accessible to the publics of foreign countries, not later than 180 days after 
the date of the enactment of the Secure Embassy Construction and 
Counterterrorism Act of 2022, the Secretary of State shall adopt guidelines to 
collect and utilize information from each diplomatic post at which the 
construction of a new embassy compound or new consulate compound could result in 
the closure or co-location of an American Space that is owned and operated by 
the United States Government, generally known as an American Center, or any 
other public diplomacy facility under the Secure Embassy Construction and 
Counterterrorism Act of 1999 (22 U.S.C. 4865 et seq.).''.
            (2) Security requirements for united states diplomatic facilities.--
        Section 606(a) of the Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism 
        Act of 1999 (22 U.S.C. 4865(a)) is amended--
                    (A) in paragraph (1)(A), by striking ``the threat'' and 
                inserting ``a range of threats, including that'';
                    (B) in paragraph (2)--
                            (i) in subparagraph (A)--
                                    (I) by inserting ``in a location that has 
                                certain minimum ratings under the Security

                                Secretary in his or her discretion'' after 
                                ``abroad''; and
                                    (II) by inserting ``, personnel of the Peace 
                                Corps, and personnel of any other type or 
                                category of facility that the Secretary may

                            (ii) in subparagraph (B)--
                                    (I) by amending clause (i) to read as 
                                follows:
                            ``(i) In general.--Subject to clause (ii), the 
                        Secretary of State may waive subparagraph (A) if the 
                        Secretary, in consultation with, as appropriate, the 
                        head of each agency employing personnel that would not 
                        be located at the site, if applicable, determines that

                        in his or her discretion considers relevant, which may 
                        include security conditions.''; and
                                    (II) in clause (ii), by striking ``(ii) 
                                Chancery or consulate building.--'' and all that 
                                follows through ``15 days prior'' and inserting 
                                the following:

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

        breach of duty, recommend that the Secretary investigate accountability 
        for United States Government personnel with security-related 
        responsibilities under chief of mission authority;'';

        the Department to avoid all risks;''.
            (2) Briefings on embassy security.--Section 105(a)(1) of the

                high threat post'' and inserting ``progress towards opening or

                States national security of the post's continued closure or 
                suspension of operations,'' after ``national security of the 
                United States,''; and

            (2) in subsection (a)--

        serious security incident involving loss of life, serious injury, or 
        significant destruction of property at, or related to, a United States 
        Government diplomatic mission abroad (referred to in this title as a 
        `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.'';

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

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

                Islands to an embassy; and

                in the Republic of Vanuatu.
            (2) Other strategies.--

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

                their territories clear of intentionally wrongful acts using ICT 
                in violation of international commitments;

                intentionally damages or otherwise impairs the use and operation 
                of critical infrastructure providing services to the public, in 
                violation of international law;

                     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.

                military personnel rotations in Coast Guard field units on 
                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 
                Information for Safety and Law Enforcement database pursuant to 
                section 300.300 of such title (or any successor regulation);
            (2) to standardize and develop tools, training, and other relevant 
        guidance that may be shared with vessel owners and operators to assist 
        with accurately calculating and measuring the performance and viability 
        of proposed alternatives to national planning criteria requirements and 
        Area Contingency Plans administered by the Coast Guard;
            (3) to improve training of Coast Guard personnel to ensure 
        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.
    (c) Periodic Updates.--Not less frequently than every 5 years, the

                paragraph as the ``manual'') that describes the expanded 
                eligible uses of the program.
