SEC. 138. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON AIRCRAFT CARRIER PROCUREMENT.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The aircraft carriers of the Navy are a cornerstone of 
        the Nation's ability to project its power and strength.
            (2) Construction of Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers 
        represents a national effort which requires predictable and 
        stable build schedules and alignment of purpose between the 
        Department of Defense, the Department of the Navy, and the 
        aircraft carrier industrial base.
            (3) The aircraft carrier industrial base includes more than 
        2,000 companies in 44 states that contribute to the 
        construction and maintenance of these complex and 
        technologically advanced ships.
            (4) The benefits of stable, executable aircraft carrier 
        procurement plans extend throughout the aircraft carrier 
        industrial base, promoting the development and retention of 
        highly-skilled workforces and capital investments in world-
        class manufacturing and shipbuilding facilities throughout the 
        Nation.
            (5) Aircraft carrier procurement plans accompanying the 
        President's budget request for fiscal years 2023 and 2024 
        forecast procurement of CVN-82 in fiscal year 2028, however, 
        the fiscal year 2025 plan defers procurement until fiscal year 
        2030, creating a significant and destabilizing production gap 
        for the aircraft carrier industrial base.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Navy 
        should implement aircraft carrier acquisition strategies that 
        maximize benefits to operational commanders while 
        simultaneously protecting the interests of the taxpayer and 
        supporting the national nuclear shipbuilding industrial base;
            (2) the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Navy 
        should review and revise the acquisition strategy, including a 
        two-ship buy of CVN-82 and CVN-83, for Ford-class aircraft 
        carriers in the President's budget request for fiscal year 2026 
        to ensure it is consistent with accepted shipbuilding 
        industrial base analyses, prior Department recommendations, 
        reports to Congress, congressional resolutions, section 8062 of 
        title 10, United States Code, and national security interests; 
        and
            (3) the Secretary of Defense should request procurement of 
        the CVN-82 carrier not later than fiscal year 2028.

        procedures to acquire chillers for the purposes of 
        standardizing the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning 
        chillers at installations of the Air Force has resulted in 
        lower life cycle costs compared to using competitive procedures 
        for such acquisitions.
    (c) Definitions.--In this section:
            (1) The term ``competitive procedures'' has the meaning 
        given such term in section 3012 of title 10, United States

                facilities for potential use of the Program;
                    (E) establish policies and procedures--
                            (i) to reduce patient movement times in 
                        various countries in the Indo-Pacific region 
                        during peacetime and wartime operations;

                        patient care, and policies;
                            (iii) to securely share patient data with 
                        foreign countries when appropriate to do so, 
                        such as during a contingency;
                            (iv) with respect to medical equipment

          Subtitle B--Matters Relating to South and East Asia

SEC. 1311. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON SOUTH KOREA.

    It is the sense of Congress that the Secretary of Defense should 
reinforce the United States alliance with the Republic of Korea in 
support of the shared objective of a peaceful and stable Korean 
Peninsula, including by--
            (1) maintaining the presence of approximately 28,500 
        members of the United States Armed Forces deployed to the 
        country, enhancing mutual defense industrial base cooperation; 
        and
            (2) affirming the United States commitment to extended 
        deterrence using the full range of United States defense 
        capabilities, consistent with the Mutual Defense Treaty Between 
        the United States and the Republic of Korea, signed at 
        Washington, October 1, 1953.

SEC. 1312. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON TAIWAN DEFENSE RELATIONS.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United States' one China policy, as guided by the 
        Taiwan Relations Act (Public Law 96-8; 22 U.S.C. 3301 et seq.), 
        the Three Communiques between the United States and the 
        People's Republic of China, and the Six Assurances provided by 
        the United States to Taiwan in July 1982, is 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.

        into one or more defense industrial agreements with Taiwan.
            (2) Elements.--The study required by paragraph (1) shall--
                    (A) evaluate the strategic benefits and 
                implications of entering into a defense industrial

        with the commercial space industry of the United States to 
        create a true hybrid architecture that provides increased 
        capabilities and resilience;
            (2) in assessing the potential use of commercial solutions 
        to support space domain awareness, the Chief of Space 
        Operations should consider--
                    (A) conducting--
                            (i) dynamic rendezvous and proximity 
                        operations, cooperative and noncooperative non-
                        earth imaging, and noncooperative rendezvous 
                        and proximity operations with resident space 
                        objects; and
                            (ii) routine characterization, anomaly-
                        resolution, and broad metric observations of 
                        resident space objects;
                    (B) entering into long term purchase arrangements 
                for data and services to support space domain 
                awareness; and
                    (C) functionally supporting an enterprise 
                architecture for space command and control and space 
                domain awareness;
            (3) in developing and fulfilling requirements relating to 
        space access mobility and logistics, the Chief of Space 
        Operations should consider the use of commercial solutions such 
        as--
                    (A) geostationary commercial services for life 
                extension, refueling, and end of life mission disposal;
                    (B) orbital sustainment and mission extension 
                capabilities;
                    (C) maneuver services for unprepared clients in 
                geostationary earth orbit; and

                operations like electromechanical acceleration 
                platforms; and
            (4) the Chief of Space Operations and the Assistant 
        Secretary of the Air Force for Space Acquisition and 
        Integration should continue to engage with the congressional 
        defense committees on any changes to acquisition authorities 
        that are needed to better integrate commercial space 
        capabilities within existing and future Government 
        architectures.

        of the Department of Defense, distinguishing among categories 
        such as applications for shopping, social media, entertainment, 
        or health; and
            (2) create a risk framework with respect to Department 
        personnel or operations that assesses each foreign mobile 
        application (or, if appropriate, grouping of similar such 
        applications) that is from a country of concern for any 
        potential impact on Departmental personnel and Departmental 
        operations, incorporating considerations of--
                    (A) the manner and extent of data collection by the 
                application;
                    (B) the ability of the application to influence the 
                user with the applications content to the detriment of 
                the United States;
                    (C) the manner and extent of foreign ownership or 
                control of the application or data collected by the 
                application;
                    (D) any foreign government interests associated 
                with the applications;
                    (E) a software bill of materials with a focus on 
                known or assessed malicious software embedded in the 
                application, including in prior versions of the 
                application or in other applications created by the 
                owners of such application;
                    (F) any known impact from prior use of the 
                application to Department personnel or operations; and
                    (G) the foreign mobile application of concern 
                residing on a United States Government device or a 
                personally owned device while in proximity to 
                Department operations or activities or in the personal 
                custody of personnel during Department sanctioned 
                activities.
    (b) Considerations.--In developing the categorical definitions and 
risk framework described in subsection (a), the Secretary of Defense--
            (1) shall include in the risk framework foreign mobile 
        applications of concern--
                    (A) from countries that the Secretary determines to 
                be engaged in consistent, unauthorized conduct that is 
                detrimental to the national security or foreign policy 
                of the United States;
                    (B) that are accessible to be downloaded from major 
                mobile device application marketplaces by Department 
                personnel; and
                    (C) originating from, authored in, owned by, or 
                otherwise associated with countries or entities that 
                are designated on the list maintained and set forth in 
                Supplement No. 4 to part 744 of the Export 
                Administration Regulations;
            (2) may include additional countries or individual foreign 
        mobile applications with malicious and banned capabilities from 
        other countries to the extent the Secretary determines 
        appropriate; and
            (3) shall consider distinguishing within the risk framework 
        the particular interests of a country described in paragraph 
        (1) or (2) in the use of a foreign mobile application of 
        concern of such country (regardless of device or owner) by--
                    (A) users located at facilities of the Department 
                of Defense of varying levels of sensitivity;
                    (B) users conducting authorized operations or 
                movements of Department of Defense materiel; or
                    (C) specific civilian employees of the Department 
                or contractors whom the Secretary determines likely to 
                be a target of a foreign actor.
    (c) Guidance and Updates.--The Secretary of Defense shall--
            (1) issue guidance to all Department personnel 
        incorporating the categories of foreign mobile applications of 
        concern and advising how to mitigate the risks identified by 
        the risk framework with respect to such applications;
            (2) routinely update the categorical definitions and risk 
        framework promulgated pursuant to subsection (a), at least on 
        an annual basis; and
            (3) prescribe, if feasible, regulations that appropriately 
        mitigate risks from applications on devices provided by the 
        Department of Defense or on any device used during an activity 
        described in subsection (b)(3)(B) or at locations described 
        under (b)(3)(A).

        fiscal years 2025 and 2026 using funds appropriated after the 
        date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of 
        Transportation shall treat a project described in paragraph (2) 
        as--
                    (A) having met the requirements of paragraph (1) 
                and (6)(A)(i) of section 54301(a) of such title; and

                section.

        services--
                    (A) passenger vessels described in section 3507(k) 
                of title 46, United States Code; and

    (b) Categorical Exclusions.--

        than 6 months after the date of enactment of this Act, the 
        Secretary of Transportation shall issue a notice of proposed 
        rulemaking to establish that the Maritime Administrator may 
        approve any action qualifying as a categorical exclusion 
        established by the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal 
        Transit Administration, or the Federal Railroad Administration, 
        as outlined in part 771 of title 23, Code of Federal 
        Regulations, when the applicable requirements of that 
        categorical exclusion have been met.
            (2) New categorical exclusions.--

                National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C.

                list of categorical exclusions may be expanded with the 
                goal of having a list that allows the Maritime 
                Administration to issue categorical exclusions that 
                maritime port authorities would typically use, 
                independently of the lists of other Department of 
                Transportation modal agencies, including categorical 
                exclusions that the Secretary determines would be 
                useful to maritime port authorities in the course of 
                Federal grant-funded projects.
            (3) Process for regular updates.--The Secretary shall 
        include in the rule required by paragraph (2) a process by 
        which the Maritime Administration will update the list of 
        categorical exclusions to reflect lessons learned in grant 
        administration and project construction that lead to new 
        efficiencies in the requirements of the National Environmental 
        Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.).
    (c) Application Timelines.--Section 54301(a)(5) of title 46, United 
States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following:
                    ``(C) Delayed notice of funding opportunity.--If an 
                amendment is made to a published solicitation for grant 
                applications such that an applicant would need the 
                information contained in the amendment to draft an 
                application, other than an amendment of the amount of 
                grant funding available, the Secretary shall extend the 
                application deadline by the number of days between the 
                initial solicitation and the amendment.''.
