The Judiciary Office Building Development Act, Public Law 100-480,
among other purposes, authorized the Architect of the Capitol to
contract for the design and construction of a building adjacent to Union
Station in the District of Columbia to be leased to the Judicial Branch
of the United States. This schedule reflects the costs associated with
the construction of the building. Costs of construction were financed by
an initial $125 million of Federal agency debt (sales price less
unamortized discount) issued in 1989.
Estimates prepared by the Legislative Branch assumed the financial
arrangements to be a lease-purchase, which would distribute outlays
associated with acquisition of the building over a period of thirty
years. However, the arrangements involve Federally guaranteed financing
and other characteristics that make them substantively the same as
direct Federal construction, financed by direct Federal borrowing.
Estimates shown are consistent with the requirements of the Budget
Enforcement Act and are presented with the agreement of the Budget and
Appropriations Committees.

Personal services and necessary expenses to provide support for the
basic operations of the Library are financed from this appropriation.
National Library.--The National Library has as its mission the
acquisition of materials; the cataloging, classification, and
preparation of materials for use; serving the public and maintaining and
managing the Library's universal collections, which are the largest in
the world; and, the preservation of materials for use now and in the
future. It also develops, produces, markets, and distributes the catalog
records, cataloging data in machine-readable form, book catalogs,
technical publications and selected bibliographies made available from
the automated databases. It contributes directly to the Nation's
educational and intellectual life through programs that interpret the
Library's resources and promotes the use of its unparalleled
collections. The National Library provides many basic technical services
to the Library of Congress as well as the world's research and library
communities. Finally, this program coordinates Federal library and
information resources.
Law Library.--The Law Library provides direct research and reference
services to the U.S. Congress in national, international, comparative
and foreign law. Additionally, the Law Library provides bibliographic
and informational services, background papers, comparative legal
studies, legal interpretations, and translations to Members and
Committees of Congress, the Congressional Research Service, Justices of
the Supreme Court and other members of the federal Judiciary, the
Departments of State, Homeland Security, Treasury, and Justice, and
other federal agencies. The Law Library acquires, processes, and
preserves legal materials in all languages from all countries of the
world. Based on the strength of its collection of official international
and foreign legal resources--the world's largest and most complete--the
Law Library in cooperation with countries and international
organizations throughout the world digitizes and distributes legal
source material through the Global Legal Information Network or GLIN. As
its congressional priorities permit, the Law Library makes its
collections and services available to a diverse community of users--the
foreign diplomatic corps, international organizations, members of the
bench and bar, educational institutions, non-governmental libraries,
legal service organizations, and the general public.
Management Support Services.--This activity supports the executive
staff of the Office of the Librarian: budget and finance; human
resources; contracts; logistics; buildings management; and other
centralized services. It also includes rental of space off Capitol Hill.

The Office is conducted in part on a self-sustaining basis. The
amount requested is substantially counterbalanced by fees received for
services rendered and the value of books and other library materials
deposited in accordance with the Copyright Act and transferred to the
Library of Congress. The receipts and obligations for 2005, and
estimates for 2006 and 2007 are as follows:
2005 actual 2006 est. 2007 est.

Registration, recordation, acquisitions, copyright records, and
public information.--The Copyright Office is responsible for:
registering copyright claims and renewals, vessel hull designs, and mask
works; recording assignments and other documents relating to a
copyright; acquiring U.S. copyrighted works for possible inclusion in
Library of Congress collections; creating and making available records
of copyright ownership; and providing copyright information to the
public. These activities relate to an estimated 550,000 copyright
registrations in 2007, an estimated 540,000 during 2006, and 531,720
during 2005.
Licensing Division.--The Licensing Division handles administrative
provisions of copyright statutory licenses and obligations, including
those involving secondary transmissions by cable television systems and
satellite carriers and the licensing of digital audio recording devices
and media. The division collects specified royalty fees for disbursement
to copyright owners.
Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panels (CARP).--In 2004, Congress
enacted the Copyright Royalty and Distribution Reform Act of 2004 (Act),
Pub. L. 108-419, 118 Stat. 2311, which transferred the responsibility
for setting rates and terms for statutory licenses and for making
determinations
[[Page 30]]
regarding the distribution of royalty fees deposited with the Copyright
Office from the CARPs to three Copyright Royalty Judges. The Act,
however, allows the Copyright Office to complete any proceeding that was
initiated prior to the date of enactment. Thus, the Copyright Office has
retained a minimal CARP staff to resolve any open distribution or rate
setting proceeding under the CARP system. The Copyright Office expects
to phase out all pending distribution proceedings in fiscal year 2007.
Copyright Royalty Judges (CRJ).--The new system, staffed by
Copyright Royalty Judges and their staff, and operated under the
Librarian of Congress, will determine royalty distributions and adjust
royalty rates.

The Office of the Superintendent of Documents operates under a
separate appropriation that provides funds for: (1) the mailing for
Members of Congress and other Government agencies of certain Government
publications, as authorized by law; (2) the distribution of Government
publications to designated depository libraries, including tangible
Government information products, online access, and locator services
provided via the Internet from GPO Access; (3) the compilation of
catalogs and indexes of Government publications; and (4) the
distribution of Government publications in the International Exchange
Program. These four functions are related to the publication activity of
other agencies and to the demands of the public, Members of Congress,
and depository libraries. Consequently, the Office of the Superintendent
of Documents can exercise limited control over the volume of work which
it may be called upon to perform. Following is a description of these
four functions.
Distribution for other Government agencies and Members of
Congress.--The Office of Superintendent of Documents maintains mailing
lists and mails, at the request of Government agencies and Members of
Congress, certain publications specified by public law.
Depository library distribution.--As required, Government
publications are supplied to libraries which are designated as
depositories for Government publications. This program includes tangible
information products, online access, and locator services provided via
the internet from GPO Access.
Cataloging and indexing.--The Office of Superintendent of Documents
is charged with preparing catalogs and indexes of all publications
issued by the Federal Government. The principal publication is the
``Monthly Catalog of U.S. Government Publications.''
International exchange.--The Office of Superintendent of Documents
distributes Government publications to foreign governments which agree,
as indicated by the Library of Congress, to send to the United States
similar publications of their governments for delivery to the Library of
Congress.

The United States Tax Court is a Court of record established under
Article I of the Constitution of the United States. The Court is
composed of a Chief Judge and eighteen judges. Judges of the Tax Court
are appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of
the Senate, for 15 year terms. Decisions by the Court are reviewable by
the United States Courts of Appeals and, if certiorari is granted, by
the Supreme Court.
In their judicial duties, the judges are assisted by Senior Judges,
who participate in the adjudication of regular cases, and by Special
Trial Judges, who hear small tax cases and certain regular cases
assigned to them by the Chief Judge.
The Court conducts trial sessions throughout the United States,
including Hawaii and Alaska.
The matters over which the Court has jurisdiction are set forth in
various sections of Title 26 of the U.S. Code.
For 2007, the Court proposes a trial program of 220 weeks. Trials
are held in 77 cities throughout the United States.

concerned with the operation of the antitrust laws; (3) to evaluate the
advisability of proposals and current arrangements; and (4)
[[Page 43]]
to prepare and submit to Congress and the President a report containing
``a detailed statement of the findings and conclusions of the
Commission, together with recommendations for legislative or
administrative action the Commission considers to be appropriate.'' The
report is required by law to be submitted by April 2, 2007. The
Commission conducted public hearings and other information gathering,
including solicitation of comments from the public, during 2005, and
will draft its report during 2006. The Commission will complete, print,
and deliver its report to Congress and the President in 2007, after
which the Commission, by law, will terminate. This appropriation request
is for the remaining amount of the Commission's $4 million
authorization. The Commission consists of 12 members, 4 of which were
appointed by the President, 4 of which were appointed by the leadership
of the Senate, and 4 of which were appointed by the leadership of the

China.--Congress created the Congressional-Executive Commission on the
People's Republic of China (CECC) in 2000 by passing Title III of P.L.
106-286, the China Relations Act of 2000. The statute gives the
Commission the mandate to monitor the Chinese government's compliance
with international human rights standards and to track the development
of the rule of law in China. The Commission reports annually on these
issues to the President and the Congressional leadership, making
recommendations for policy action and legislation when appropriate. The
CECC was also charged with creating and maintaining a registry of
victims of human rights abuses in China, including prisoners of
conscience. The CECC conducts hearings and staff-led issues roundtables
throughout the year and maintains a website containing the records of
these proceedings, as well as other information about human rights and
rule of law issues in China. The CECC seeks to be a resource on these
issues for Capitol Hill, the NGO community, the academic world, and the
general public.
