The Congressional Accountability Act of 1995 (CAA) established an independent Office of Compliance to apply the rights and protections of the following labor and employment statutes to covered employees within the Legislative Branch: the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, chapter 71 of title 5 of the U.S. Code (relating to Federal service labor-management relations), the Employee Polygraph Protection Act of 1988, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and chapter 43 of title 38 of the U.S. Code (relating to veterans' employment and reemployment). This Act was amended in 1998 to apply the Veterans Employment Opportunities Act. In 2008, the CAA was amended to apply the Genetic Information and Nondiscrimination Act of 2008.

The Office provides employees and employing offices with an independent, neutral dispute resolution process, as an alternative to the court system, through which they may adjudicate claims under the laws applied by the CAA. The Office is headed by a five-member Board of Directors, who are appointed jointly by the House and Senate majority and minority leadership.

Section 415 of the Congressional Accountability Act (CAA) established "an account of the Office in the Treasury of the United States for the payment of awards and settlements under this Act,'' and further authorized to be appropriated "such sums as may be necessary to pay such awards and settlements.''

The Legislative Branch Appropriations Acts have appropriated funds for awards and settlements under the CAA by means of the following language:

Such sums as may be necessary are appropriated to the account described in subsection (a) of section 415 of Public Law 104–1 to pay awards and settlements as authorized under such subsection.

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.

Through its audit operation it recommends corrective actions to improve financial, operational, technological, and managerial activities. In its investigative capacity, it performs administrative, civil, and criminal investigations concerning fraud, conflict of interest, and other misconduct involving Library employees, contractors, and grantees. As part of its oversight role, OIG continually reviews and provides recommendations about the effects of existing and proposed legislation and Library policies. The OIG also coordinates relationships within the Library and with outside organizations regarding OIG matters. The designed objective of the office's efforts is to assist the Library in accomplishing its mission in the most effective and efficient manner.

Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO).—The IT vision of the Library of Congress is to deliver continuous uninterrupted digital services and enable the Congress and the American people to make maximal use of the Library's resources and services. The Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO), via the IT domain, manages IT as a strategic resource across the Library by providing the IT strategic direction, leadership, services, and capabilities that deliver the IT vision of the Library of Congress.

Congress established the Library of Congress National Collection Stewardship Fund (NCSF) in May 2017 as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2017. An account for the fund was established in the Treasury of the United States in May 2017, following enactment. The Library of Congress NCSF may be used directly for the purpose of preparing collection materials of the Library of Congress for long-term storage, and the Librarian may transfer amounts to the Architect of the Capitol (AOC) for the purpose of designing, constructing, altering, upgrading, and equipping collections preservation and storage facilities for the Library of Congress, or for the purpose of acquiring real property by lease for the preservation and storage of Library of Congress collections. The NCSF provides direct assistance in funding these projects not by replacing current appropriations streams of funding but by accumulating funding over several appropriations cycles supplementing specifically appropriated program expenses. The NCSF consists of such amounts as may be transferred by the Librarian from available amounts appropriated for any fiscal year (starting with fiscal year 2017 and each succeeding fiscal year) for the Library of Congress under the heading Salaries and Expenses. Any amounts in the NCSF shall remain available until expended for the stated purpose of the fund.

For all necessary expenses of the Copyright Office, $86,438,000, of which not more than $37,391,000, to remain available until expended, shall be derived from collections credited to this appropriation during fiscal year 2019 under section 708(d) and 1316 of title 17, United States Code: Provided, That the Copyright Office may not obligate or expend any funds derived from collections under such section, in excess of the amount authorized for obligation or expenditure in appropriations Acts: Provided further, That not more than $6,073,000 shall be derived from collections during fiscal year 2019 under sections 111(d)(2), 119(b)(3), 803(e), and 1005 of such title: Provided further, That the total amount available for obligation shall be reduced by the amount by which collections are less than $43,464,000: Provided further, That not more than $100,000 of the amount appropriated is available for the maintenance of an "International Copyright Institute" in the Copyright Office of the Library of Congress for the purpose of training nationals of developing countries in intellectual property laws and policies: Provided further, That $4,328,000 shall be derived from prior year unobligated balances: Provided further, That not more than $6,500 may be expended, on the certification of the Librarian of Congress, in connection with official representation and reception expenses for activities of the International Copyright Institute and for copyright delegations, visitors, and seminars: Provided further, That, notwithstanding any provision of chapter 8 of title 17, United States Code, any amounts made available under this heading which are attributable to royalty fees and payments received by the Copyright Office pursuant to sections 111, 119, and chapter 10 of such title may be used for the costs incurred in the administration of the Copyright Royalty Judges program, with the exception of the costs of salaries and benefits for the Copyright Royalty Judges and staff under section 802(e).

The U.S. Copyright Office (USCO) operates the largest database of copyrighted works and copyright ownership information in the world, and through its work contributes significantly to the development of the copyright law, the national economy, and the cultural heritage of the United States. Approximately sixty percent of the USCO's Basic operations are funded by fees paid by authors and other copyright owners for services rendered, and the remainder is funded by appropriated dollars. The amount requested is more than offset by projected fee receipts plus the value of books and other materials deposited with the USCO in accordance with the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. subsections 407 and 408) and transferred annually to the Library of Congress for its permanent collections. The receipts and obligations for 2017, and estimates for 2018 and 2019 are as follows:


	2017 actual	2018 est.	2019 est.

Receipts:
Offsetting Collections	$39,548	$39,279	$43,464

Total Receipts	$86,548	$74,279	$82,792

Obligations	$64,758	$62,220	$86,438

Registration, recordation, acquisitions, copyright records, public information, and expert advice on copyright issues.—The USCO is responsible for administering the national copyright registration system, including by reviewing applications for copyright registration and recording assignments and other copyright-related documents. In 2017, the USCO examined and registered 452,122 claims to copyright in original works of authorship, and it expects to register an estimated 450,000 copyright claims in both 2018 and 2019. Additional responsibilities of the USCO include: creating and providing access to records of copyright ownership, and providing additional copyright information to the public; administering the mandatory deposit provision of the Copyright Act, which provides books, films, sound recordings, and other works for possible inclusion in Library of Congress collections; providing expert advice to Congress, executive agencies, and the courts on domestic and international copyright law and policy; and participating in international discussions and negotiations regarding copyright matters.

Licensing Division.—The Licensing Division handles administrative provisions of statutory licenses and obligations under the copyright law, including those involving secondary transmissions by cable television systems and satellite carriers and the importation, manufacture and distribution of digital audio recording devices and distribution media. The Division collects specified royalty fees for distribution to copyright owners upon determinations rendered by the Copyright Royalty Judges. Distribution occurs after deduction of administrative costs incurred by the Division and by the Copyright Royalty Judges, as specified by this appropriation. The Licensing Division is fully funded directly from the royalties and filing fees collected, making it self-supporting with no tax dollars used for this operation.

Copyright Royalty Judges (CRJ).—The Copyright Royalty Judges and their staff, who operate under the Librarian of Congress, determine royalty distributions and adjust the royalty rates and terms of copyright statutory licenses.

The Public Information Programs of the Superintendent of Documents operate under a separate appropriation that provides funds (salaries and expenses) for: (1) the distribution of certain tangible publications to Members of Congress and other Government agencies, as authorized by law; (2) the distribution of Government publications to designated Federal depository libraries, as authorized by law, including tangible Government information products and online access to more than 1.5 million titles via GPO's govinfo (www.govinfo.gpo), formerly called Federal Digital System (FDsys); (3) the compilation of catalogs and indexes of Government publications, as authorized by law; and (4) the distribution of Federal Government publications to foreign governments via the International Exchange Service. These four functions are related to the publication activity of Federal agencies and the demands of the public, Members of Congress, and depository libraries. Following is a description of these four functions:

Distribution for other Government agencies and Members of Congress (By-Law Distribution).—The Public Information Programs of the Superintendent of Documents maintain mailing lists and distribute, at the request of Government agencies and Members of Congress, certain publications specified by public law.

Federal Depository Library Program.—Established by Congress to ensure the American public has access to its Government's information, the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) involves the acquisition and dissemination of Government information in all formats to Federal depository libraries across the country.

The mission of the FDLP is to coordinate with depository libraries, more than 1,150 nationwide, to disseminate information products from all three branches of the Government. Libraries that have been designated as Federal depositories maintain these information products (as provided by GPO) as part of their existing collections and are responsible for assuring that the public has free access to the material provided by the FDLP.

Included in this program is the maintenance and expansion of free, electronic access to information products produced by the Federal Government via govinfo. Electronic information dissemination and access have greatly expanded the number of publications offered to the Federal depository libraries as well as increasing public use of the FDLP content. As the FDLP continues its transition to a primarily electronic program, the costs of the program are increasingly related to identifying, acquiring, cataloging, linking to, authenticating, modernizing, and providing permanent public access to digital Government information.

Cataloging and indexing.—The Public Information Programs of the Superintendent of Documents are charged with preparing catalogs and indexes of all publications issued by the Federal Government that are not confidential in character. The principal publication is the web-based "Catalog of U.S. Government Publications" (CGP) (www.catalog.gpo.gov). GPO's goal is to expand the CGP to a more comprehensive title listing of public documents, both historic and electronic, to increase the visibility and use of Government information products.

International Exchange Service (IES).—Under the direction of the Library of Congress (LC), the Public Information Programs of the Superintendent of Documents distributes tangible Government publications to foreign governments that agree to send the United States similar publications of their governments for LC collections.

All GPO activities are financed through the agency's Business Operations Revolving Fund, established by section 309 of Title 44, U.S.C. This business-like fund is used to pay all GPO costs in performing congressional and agency publishing, printing and information product procurement, and publications dissemination activities. It is reimbursed from payments from customer agencies, sales to the public, and transfers from GPO's two annual appropriations: the Congressional Publishing Appropriation and the Public Information Programs of the Superintendent of Documents Appropriation. Reimbursements to the Fund from appropriations constitute approximately 13.1% of GPO's annual revenues; the balance is generated by reimbursements from customer agencies for work performed, sales of publications and information products to the public, and miscellaneous sales of scrap, waste, and surplus property. The largest single component of GPO's annual expenses is publishing work procured from the private sector. In FY 2017, the cost of this work totaled $307.4 million, or about 37% of total expenses. The second largest component was personnel compensation and benefits. These totaled $216.8 million, or about 26% of all expenses. GPO's Business Operations Revolving Fund functions as the agency's checking account with the U.S. Treasury. GPO pays its expenses from this account and the Fund is reimbursed when the Treasury Department transfers money from customer agency appropriations accounts to the Fund when they pay GPO's invoices. This procedure also applies to the payment of transfers from the Congressional Publishing and Public Information Programs appropriations, and to deposits of funds collected from sales to the public. GPO maintains a cash balance in the Business Operations Revolving Fund that is used to pay all expenses. The cash balance fluctuates daily as payments are received from agency reimbursements, customer payments, and transfers from GPO appropriations. Under GPO's system of accrual accounting, annual earnings generated since the inception of the Fund have been accumulated as retained earnings. Retained earnings make it possible for GPO to fund a significant amount of technology modernization. However, appropriations for essential investments in technology and facilities upgrades are requested when necessary. GPO is accountable for its finances. Each year, the agency's finances and financial controls are audited by an independent outside audit firm working under contract with GPO's Office of Inspector General. For FY 2017, the audit concluded with GPO earning an unmodified, or clean, opinion on its finances, the 21st consecutive year GPO has earned such an audit result.

The United States Tax Court (referred to herein as the Tax Court or Court) was established in 1969 under Article I of the United States Constitution. The Court's jurisdiction is established by U.S. Code Title 26 (the Internal Revenue Code). The Court is a court of law, which the Supreme Court has said closely resembles the Federal District Courts and solely exercises judicial powers. It is also a court of national jurisdiction and conducts trial sessions in 74 cities throughout the United States.

The Tax Court is independent of the Executive and Legislative Branches. It is not affiliated with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). It is one of three courts in which taxpayers can bring suit to contest IRS liability determinations, and the only one in which taxpayers can do so without prepaying any portion of the disputed taxes.

By law, the Tax Court is authorized 19 judges who, among themselves, elect one as Chief Judge. Judges are appointed to 15-year terms by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. Retired (also known as Senior) judges may be recalled by the Chief Judge to perform judicial duties. The Chief Judge is also authorized to appoint special trial judges who have statutory authority to decide several categories of cases, including cases involving up to $50,000 in dispute per tax year. Decisions by the Tax Court are reviewable by the United States Courts of Appeals and, if certiorari is granted, by the Supreme Court.

The Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission (MACPAC) is a non-partisan legislative branch agency that provides policy and data analysis and makes recommendations to Congress, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and the states on a wide array of issues affecting Medicaid and the State Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). The U.S. Comptroller General appoints MACPAC's 17 commissioners, who come from diverse regions across the United States and bring broad expertise and a wide range of perspectives on Medicaid and CHIP.

MACPAC serves as an independent source of information on Medicaid and CHIP, publishing issue briefs and data reports throughout the year to support policy analysis and program accountability. The Commission's authorizing statute, 42 U.S.C. 1396, outlines a number of areas for analysis, including: payment; eligibility; enrollment and retention; coverage; access to care; quality of care; and the programs' interaction with Medicare and the health care system generally.

MACPAC's authorizing statute also requires the Commission to submit reports to Congress by March 15 and June 15 of each year. In carrying out its work, the Commission holds public meetings and regularly consults with state officials, congressional and executive branch staff, beneficiaries, health care providers, researchers, and policy experts.

Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe.—The Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe is authorized and directed to monitor the acts of the signatories which reflect compliance with or violation of the articles of the Final Act of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, with particular regard to the provisions relating to Cooperation in Humanitarian Fields. The law establishing the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe also mandated it to monitor and encourage U.S. Government and private activities designed to expand East-West trade and the exchange of people and ideas. The Commission will receive an annual report from the Secretary of State discussing the overall United States policy objectives that are advanced through meetings of decision-making bodies of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), the OSCE implementation review process, and other activities of the OSCE.

Congressional-Executive Commission on the People's Republic of 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.

The Commission comprises nine Senators, nine Members of the House of Representatives, and five Executive Branch officials, supported by a professional staff numbering about 15 people. The chairmanship of the CECC rotates from the Senate to the House in even-numbered Congresses.

Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission.—The Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission was created by Congress in 1999 by Public Law 106–79. The Commission's congressional mandate is to establish an appropriate, permanent national memorial to Dwight D. Eisenhower, who served as Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe in World War II and subsequently as 34th President of the United States. The Commission's enabling legislation dictates that a memorial should be created in the nation's capital to perpetuate his memory and his contributions to the United States. The Commission is bipartisan and consists of 12 members. Four members are members of the House of Representatives, four are Senators, and four are private citizens appointed by the President. The Commission is led by Senator Pat Roberts (Chair) and Congressman Mike Thompson (Vice Chair). Its work on building the memorial since 2001 has been informed by the active participation of the Eisenhower family, expert historians, along with input from members of Congress and federal review agencies. The review agencies have expressed broad support for the design and will soon consider the final design adjustments. Beginning construction in FY 2017, and with additional federal funds for construction, the memorial is scheduled to be completed in 2020, the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II. Its swift completion will allow an opportunity for our remaining World War II heroes to honor Eisenhower, their commander in Europe. In P.L. 114–223, Congress reinstituted the authority for the Commission to execute phased construction with available funds. The original language authorizing phased construction with available funds is included in P.L. 112–74. The project is shovel-ready.

World War I Centennial Commission.—The World War I Centennial Commission was created by Congress in 2013 by P.L. 112–272, and amended in 2014 by P.L. 113–291 to ensure a suitable observance of the centennial of World War I, which ushered in the 'American Century'. It began the advance of the rights of women and minorities in the U.S., and sowed the seeds for international conflicts for a century, many of which are ongoing today. America's support of Great Britain, France, Belgium, and its other allies in World War I marked the first time in United States history that American soldiers went abroad in defense of liberty against foreign aggression. 4.7 million men and women from the United States served in uniform during World War I, among them 2 future presidents, Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Two million individuals from the United States served overseas during World War I, including 200,000 naval personnel who served on the seas. The United States suffered 375,000 casualties during World War I, including 116,516 deaths, more than in the Korean War and Vietnam War combined. The centennial of World War I offers an opportunity for people in the United States to learn about and commemorate the sacrifices of their predecessors. Commemorative programs, activities, and sites allow them to learn about the history of World War I, the United States involvement in that war, and the war's effects on the remainder of the 20th and into the 21st century, and to commemorate and honor the participation of the United States and its citizens in the war effort. Congress also redesignated Pershing Park in the District of Columbia as a 'World War I Memorial', and authorized The Commission to plan, develop, and execute ceremonies for that redesignation, and for the enhancement of the General Pershing Commemorative Work by constructing an World War I Memorial containing appropriate sculptural and other commemorative elements, including landscaping, to further honor the service of members of the United States Armed Forces in World War I. Although the Commission is scheduled to sunset in July of 2019, P.L. 113–291 provides for continuation of the Commission to enable completion of the World War I Memorial under section 3091(b) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015. The Commission is bipartisan and consists of 12 private citizens; 6 are appointed by the Congress, 3 are appointed by the President, 1 each is appointed by the National World War I Museum in Kansas City, MO, the VFW, and the American Legion. The Commission is augmented by ex-officio members and advisors: The Archivist of the United States, The Librarian of Congress, The Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, The Secretary of Education, The Secretary of State, The Secretary of Veterans Affairs, The Administrator of General Services, The Department of Defense, The Department of Homeland Security, and the Secretary of the Interior.

Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission.—The Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial Commission was created by Congress in 1999 by Public Law 106–79. The Commission's congressional mandate is to establish an appropriate, permanent national memorial to Dwight D. Eisenhower, who served as Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe in World War II and subsequently as 34th President of the United States. The Commission's enabling legislation dictates that a memorial should be created in the nation's capital to perpetuate his memory and his contributions to the United States. The Commission is bipartisan and consists of 12 members. Four members are members of the House of Representatives, four are Senators, and four are private citizens appointed by the President. The Commission is led by Senator Pat Roberts (Chair) and Congressman Mike Thompson (Vice Chair). Its work on building the memorial since 2001 has been informed by the active participation of the Eisenhower family, expert historians, along with input from members of Congress and federal review agencies. The review agencies have approved the final design, a building permit has been issued by the National Park Service and project construction has begun. This request for federal construction funds represents the last installment of the phased funding and construction process. Funds for salaries and expenses should continue to FY 2021. In order to build this world-class memorial in the most efficient way possible and avoid escalating costs, the Commission requests these funds in FY 2019. Salaries and Expenses — $1,800,000. Capital Construction account — $30,000,000.

The Open World Leadership Center, under the direction of its Board of Trustees, supports the identification of emerging leaders from foreign countries selected by the Board of Trustees and oversees the development of an intensive program in the United States to link up to 3,000 participants each year with U.S. counterparts. The Center's mission entails enhancing the understanding and capabilities for cooperation between the United States and participating countries by developing a network of leaders who have gained significant, first-hand exposure to America's democratic, accountable government and its free-market system. The Center has also administered a program to enable cultural leaders from the Russian Federation to gain exposure to the operations of American cultural institutions.

The Center is authorized to solicit and accept federal and private funds, in addition to receipt of this appropriation, and to invest appropriated funds in par value securities at the U.S. Treasury. The Center is governed by an eleven-member board of trustees, composed of the Librarian of Congress, members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives and representatives of the private sector. The Center is authorized to obtain a wide range of administrative support, including space, from the Library of Congress.

FY 2019 funding supports U.S. grants and logistical services for hosting in communities throughout the United States as well as other operating expenses of the Center.
