       (a) The Secretary of Defense may not approve a theater 
     missile defense interceptor program proceeding beyond the 
     low-rate initial production acquisition stage until the 
     Secretary certifies to the congressional defense committees 
     that such program has successfully completed initial 
     operational test and evaluation, and is found to be a 
     suitable and effective system.
       (b) In order to be certified under subsection (a) as having 
     been successfully completed, the initial operational test and 
     evaluation conducted with respect to an interceptor program 
     must have included flight tests--
       (1) that were conducted with multiple interceptors and 
     multiple targets in the presence of realistic 
     countermeasures; and
       (2) the results of which demonstrate the achievement by the 
     interceptors of the baseline performance thresholds.
       (c) For purposes of this section, the baseline performance 
     thresholds with respect to a program are the weapons systems 
     performance thresholds specified in the baseline description 
     for the system established (pursuant to section 2435(a)(1) of 
     title 10, United States Code) before the program entered the

                      Subtitle C--Missile Defense

     SEC. 231. SHORT TITLE.

       This subtitle may be cited as the ``Missile Defense Act of 
     1995''.

     SEC. 232. FINDINGS.

       Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The threat that is posed to the national security of 
     the United States by the proliferation of ballistic and 
     cruise missiles is significant and growing, both 
     quantitatively and qualitatively.
       (2) The deployment of effective Theater Missile Defense 
     systems can deny potential adversaries the option of 
     escalating a conflict by threatening or attacking United 
     States forces, coalition partners of the United States, or 
     allies of the United States with ballistic missiles armed 
     with weapons of mass destruction to offset the operational 
     and technical advantages of the United States and its 
     coalition partners and allies.
       (3) The intelligence community of the United States has 
     estimated that (A) the missile proliferation trend is toward 
     longer range and more sophisticated ballistic missiles, (B) 
     North Korea may deploy an intercontinental ballistic missile 
     capable of reaching Alaska or beyond within 5 years, and (C) 
     although a new indigenously developed ballistic missile 
     threat to the continental United States is not forecast 
     within the next 10 years there is a danger that determined 
     countries will acquire intercontinental ballistic missiles in 
     the near future and with little warning by means other than 
     indigenous development.
       (4) The deployment by the United States and its allies of 
     effective defenses against ballistic missiles of all ranges, 
     as well as against cruise missiles, can reduce the incentives 
     for countries to acquire such missiles or to augment existing 
     missile capabilities.

[[Page S 13389]]

       (5) The Cold War distinction between strategic ballistic 
     missiles and nonstrategic ballistic missiles and, therefore, 
     the ABM Treaty's distinction between strategic defense and 
     nonstrategic defense, has changed because of technological 
     advancements and should be reviewed.
       (6) The concept of mutual assured destruction, which was 
     one of the major philosophical rationales for the ABM Treaty, 
     is now questionable as a basis for stability in a multipolar 
     world in which the United States and the states of the former 
     Soviet Union are seeking to normalize relations and eliminate 
     Cold War attitudes and arrangements.
       (7) Theater and national missile defenses can contribute to 
     the maintenance of stability as missile threats proliferate 
     and as the United States and the former Soviet Union 
     significantly reduce the number of strategic nuclear forces 
     in their respective inventories.
       (8) Although technology control regimes and other forms of 
     international arms control can contribute to 
     nonproliferation, such measures alone are inadequate for 
     dealing with missile proliferation, and should not be viewed 
     as alternatives to missile defenses and other active and 
     passive defenses.
       (9) Due to limitations in the ABM Treaty which preclude 
     deployment of more than 100 ground-based ABM interceptors at 
     a single site, the United States is currently prohibited from 
     deploying a national missile defense system capable of 
     defending the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii 
     against even the most limited ballistic missile attacks.

     SEC. 233. MISSILE DEFENSE POLICY.

       It is the policy of the United States to--
       (1) deploy as soon as possible affordable and operationally 
     effective theater missile defenses capable of countering 
     existing and emerging theater ballistic missiles;
       (2)(A) develop for deployment a multiple-site national 
     missile defense system that: (i) is affordable and 
     operationally effective against limited, accidental, and 
     unauthorized ballistic missile attacks on the territory of 
     the United States, and (ii) can be augmented over time as the 
     threat changes to provide a layered defense against limited, 
     accidental, or unauthorized ballistic missile threats;
       (B) initiate negotiations with the Russian Federation as 
     necessary to provide for the national missile defense systems 
     specified in section 235; and
       (C) consider, if those negotiations fail, the option of 
     withdrawing from the ABM Treaty in accordance with the 
     provisions of Article XV of the Treaty, subject to 
     consultations between the President and the Senate;
       (3) ensure congressional review, prior to a decision to 
     deploy the system developed for deployment under paragraph 
     (2), of: (A) the affordability and operational effectiveness 
     of such a system; (B) the threat to be countered by such a 
     system; and (C) ABM Treaty considerations with respect to 
     such a system.
       (4) improve existing cruise missile defenses and deploy as 
     soon as practical defenses that are affordable and 
     operationally effective against advanced cruise missiles;
       (5) pursue a focused research and development program to 
     provide follow-on ballistic missile defense options;
       (6) employ streamlined acquisition procedures to lower the 
     cost and accelerate the pace of developing and deploying 
     theater missile defenses, cruise missile defenses, and 
     national missile defenses;
       (7) seek a cooperative transition to a regime that does not 
     feature mutual assured destruction and an offense-only form 
     of deterrence as the basis for strategic stability; and
       (8) carry out the policies, programs, and requirements of 
     subtitle C of title II of this Act through processes 
     specified within, or consistent with, the ABM Treaty, which 
     anticipates the need and provides the means for amendment to 
     the Treaty.

     SEC. 234. THEATER MISSILE DEFENSE ARCHITECTURE.

       (a) Establishment of Core Program.--To implement the policy 
     established in section 233, the Secretary of Defense shall 
     establish a top priority core theater missile defense program

       (4) The Navy Upper Tier (Theater Wide) system, with a user 
     operational evaluation system (UOES) capability in fiscal 
     year 1999 and an initial operational capability (IOC) in 
     fiscal year 2001.
       (b) Interoperability and Support of Core Systems.--To 
     maximize effectiveness and flexibility, the Secretary of 
     Defense shall ensure that core theater missile defense 
     systems are interoperable and fully capable of exploiting 
     external sensor and battle management support from systems 
     such as the Navy's Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC), 
     the Army's Battlefield Integration Center (BIC), air and 
     space-based sensors including, in particular, the Space and 
     Missile Tracking System (SMTS).
       (c) Termination of Programs.--The Secretary of Defense 
     shall terminate the Boost Phase Interceptor (BPI) program.
       (d) Follow-on Systems.--(1) The Secretary of Defense shall 
     develop an affordable development plan for follow-on theater 
     missile defense systems which leverages existing systems, 
     technologies, and programs, and focuses investments to 
     satisfy military requirements not met by the core program.
       (2) Before adding new theater missile defense systems to 
     the core program from among the follow-on activities, the 
     Secretary of Defense shall submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a report describing--
       (A) the requirements for the program and the specific 
     threats to be countered;
       (B) how the new program will relate to, support, and 
     leverage off existing core programs;
       (C) the planned acquisition strategy; and
       (D) a preliminary estimate of total program cost and 
     budgetary impact.
       (e) Report.--(1) Not later than the date on which the 
     President submits the budget for fiscal year 1997 under 
     section 1105 of title 31, United States Code, the Secretary 
     of Defense shall submit to the congressional defense 
     committees a report detailing the Secretary's plans for 
     implementing the guidance specified in this section.
       (2) For each deployment date for each system described in 
     subsection (a), the report required by paragraph (1) of this 
     subsection shall include the funding required for research, 
     development, testing, evaluation, and deployment for each 
     fiscal year beginning with fiscal year 1997 through the end 
     of the fiscal year in which deployment is projected under 
     subsection (a).

     SEC. 235. NATIONAL MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE.

       (a) In General.--To implement the policy established in 
     section 233, the Secretary of Defense shall develop an 
     affordable and operationally effective national missile 
     defense system to counter a limited, accidental, or 
     unauthorized ballistic missile attack, and which is capable 
     of attaining initial operational capability (IOC) by the end 
     of 2003. Such system shall include the following:
       (1) Ground-based interceptors capable of being deployed at 
     multiple sites, the locations and numbers of which are to be 
     determined so as to optimize the defensive coverage of the 
     continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii against 
     limited, accidental, or unauthorized ballistic missile 
     attacks.
       (2) Fixed ground-based radars and space-based sensors, 
     including the Space and Missile Tracking system, the mix, 
     siting and numbers of which are to be determined so as to 
     optimize sensor support and minimize total system cost.
       (3) Battle management, command, control, and communications 
     (BM/C3).
       (b) Interim Operational Capability.--To provide a hedge 
     against the emergence of near-term ballistic missile threats 
     against the United States and to support the development and 
     deployment of the objective system specified in subsection 
     (a), the Secretary of Defense shall develop an interim 
     national missile defense plan that would give the United 
     States the ability to field a limited operational capability 
     by the end of 1999 if required by the threat. In developing 
     this plan the Secretary shall make use of--
       (1) developmental, or user operational evaluation system 
     (UOES) interceptors, radars, and battle management, command, 
     control, and communications (BM/C3), to the extent that such 
     use directly supports, and does not significantly increase 
     the cost of, the objective system specified in subsection 
     (a);
       (2) one or more of the sites that will be used as 
     deployment locations for the objective system specified in 
     subsection (a);
       (3) upgraded early warning radars; and
       (4) space-based sensors.
       (c) Use of Streamlined Acquisition Procedures.--The 
     Secretary of Defense shall prescribe and use streamlined 
     acquisition procedures to--
       (1) reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of 
     developing the national missile defense system specified in 
     subsection (a); and
       (2) ensure that any interim national missile defense 
     capabilities developed pursuant to subsection (b) are 
     operationally effective and on a path to fulfill the 
     technical requirements and schedule of the objective system.
       (d) Additional Cost Saving Measures.--In addition to the 
     procedures prescribed pursuant to subsection (c), the 
     Secretary of Defense shall employ cost saving measures that 
     do not decrease the operational effectiveness of the systems 
     specified in subsections (a) and (b), and which do not pose 
     unacceptable technical risk. The cost saving measures should 
     include the following:
       (1) The use of existing facilities and infrastructure.
       (2) The use, where appropriate, of existing or upgraded 
     systems and technologies, except that Minuteman boosters may 
     not be used as part of a National Missile Defense 
     architecture.
       (3) Development of systems and components that do not rely 
     on a large and permanent infrastructure and are easily 
     transported, emplaced, and moved.
       (e) Report on Plan for Deployment.--Not later than the date 
     on which the President submits the budget for fiscal year 
     1997 under section 1105 of title 31, United States Code, the 
     Secretary of Defense shall submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a report containing the following matters:
       (1) The Secretary's plan for carrying out this section. 

[[Page S 13390]]

       (2) For each deployment date in subsections (a) and (b), 
     the report shall include the funding required for research, 
     development, testing, evaluation, and deployment for each 
     fiscal year beginning with fiscal year 1997 through the end 
     of the fiscal year in which deployment is projected under 
     subsection (a) or (b). The report shall also describe the 
     specific threat to be countered and provide the Secretary's 
     assessment as to whether deployment is affordable and 
     operationally effective.
       (3) An analysis of options for supplementing or modifying 
     the national missile defense architecture specified in 
     subsection (a) before attaining initial operational 
     capability, or evolving such architecture in a building block 
     manner after attaining initial operational capability, to 
     improve the cost-effectiveness or the operational 
     effectiveness of such system by adding one or a combination 
     of the following:
       (A) Additional ground-based interceptors at existing or new 
     sites.
       (B) Sea-based missile defense systems.
       (C) Space-based kinetic energy interceptors.
       (D) Space-based directed energy systems.

     SEC. 236. CRUISE MISSILE DEFENSE INITIATIVE.

       (a) In General.--The Secretary of Defense shall undertake 
     an initiative to coordinate and strengthen the cruise missile 
     defense programs, projects, and activities of the military 
     departments, the Advanced Research Projects Agency and the 
     Ballistic Missile Defense Organization to ensure that the 
     United States develops and deploys affordable and 
     operationally effective defenses against existing and future 
     cruise missile threats.
       (b) Actions of the Secretary of Defense.--In carrying out 
     subsection (a), the Secretary of Defense shall ensure that--
       (1) to the extent practicable, the ballistic missile 
     defense and cruise missile defense efforts of the Department 
     of Defense are coordinated and mutually reinforcing;
       (2) existing air defense systems are adequately upgraded to 
     provide an affordable and operationally effective defense 
     against existing and near-term cruise missile threats; and
       (3) the Department of Defense undertakes a high priority 
     and well coordinated technology development program to 
     support the future deployment of systems that are affordable 
     and operationally effective against advanced cruise missiles, 
     including cruise missiles with low observable features.
       (c) Implementation Plan.--Not later than the date on which 
     the President submits the budget for fiscal year 1997 under 
     section 1105 of title 31, United States Code, the Secretary 
     of Defense shall submit to the congressional defense 
     committees a detailed plan, in unclassified and classified 
     forms, as necessary, for carrying out this section. The plan 
     shall include an assessment of--
       (1) the systems that currently have cruise missile defense 
     capabilities, and existing programs to improve these 
     capabilities;
       (2) the technologies that could be deployed in the near- to 
     mid-term to provide significant advances over existing cruise 
     missile defense capabilities, and the investments that would 
     be required to ready the technologies for deployment;
       (3) the cost and operational tradeoffs, if any, between 
     upgrading existing air and missile defense systems and 
     accelerating follow-on systems with significantly improved 
     capabilities against advanced cruise missiles; and
       (4) the organizational and management changes that would 
     strengthen and further coordinate the cruise missile defense 
     efforts of the Department of Defense, including the 
     disadvantages, if any, of implementing such changes.

     SEC. 237. POLICY REGARDING THE ABM TREATY.

       (a) Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) Article XIII of the ABM Treaty envisions ``possible 
     changes in the strategic situation which have a bearing on 
     the provisions of this treaty''.
       (2) Articles XIII and XIV of the ABM Treaty establish means 
     for the Parties to amend the Treaty, and the Parties have 
     employed these means to amend the Treaty.
       (3) Article XV of the ABM Treaty establishes the means for 
     a party to withdraw from the Treaty, upon 6 months notice, 
     ``if it decides that extraordinary events related to the 
     subject matter of this treaty have jeopardized its supreme 
     interests''.
       (4) The policies, programs, and requirements of subtitle C 
     of title II of this Act can be accomplished through processes 
     specified within, or consistent with, the ABM Treaty, which 
     anticipates the need and provides the means for amendment to 
     the Treaty.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--In light of the findings and 
     policies provided in this subtitle, it is the sense of 
     Congress that--
       (1) Given the fundamental responsibility of the Government 
     of the United States to protect the security of the United 
     States, the increasingly serious threat posed to the United 
     States by the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction 
     and ballistic missile technology, and the effect this threat 
     could have on the options of the United States to act in a 
     time of crisis--
       (A) it is in the vital national security interest of the 
     United States to defend itself from the threat of a limited, 
     accidental, or unauthorized ballistic missile attack, 
     whatever its source; and
       (B) the deployment of a national missile defense system, in 
     accord with section 233, to protect the territory of the 
     United States against a limited, accidental, or unauthorized 
     missile attack can strengthen strategic stability and 
     deterrence; and
       (2)(A) the Senate should undertake a comprehensive review 
     of the continuing value and validity of the ABM Treaty with 
     the intent of providing additional policy guidance on the 
     future of the ABM Treaty during the second session of the One 
     Hundred Fourth Congress; and
       (B) upon completion of the review, the Committee on Foreign 
     Relations, in consultation with the Committee on Armed 
     Services and other appropriate committees, should report its 
     findings to the Senate.

     SEC. 238. PROHIBITION ON FUNDS TO IMPLEMENT AN INTERNATIONAL 
                   AGREEMENT CONCERNING THEATER MISSILE DEFENSE 
                   SYSTEMS.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) Section 234 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 1994 provides that the ABM Treaty does not 
     apply to or limit research, development, testing, or 
     deployment of missile defense systems, system upgrades, or 
     system components that are designed to counter modern theater 
     ballistic missiles, regardless of the capabilities of such 
     missiles, unless those systems, system upgrades, or system 
     components are tested against or have demonstrated 
     capabilities to counter modern strategic ballistic missiles.
       (2) Section 232 of the National Defense Authorization Act 
     for Fiscal Year 1995 provides that the United States shall 
     not be bound by any international agreement that would 
     substantially modify the ABM Treaty unless the agreement is 
     entered into pursuant to the treaty making power of the 
     President under the Constitution.

     space-based or other external sensors, is flight tested 
     against a ballistic missile target that exceeds a range of 
     3,500 kilometers or a velocity of 5 kilometers per second, 
     such missile defense system, system upgrade, or system 
     component has not been tested in an ABM mode nor deemed to 
     have been given capabilities to counter strategic ballistic 
     missiles, and
       (2) any international agreement that would limit the 
     research, development, testing, or deployment of missile 
     defense systems, system upgrades, or system components that 
     are designed to counter modern theater ballistic missiles in 
     a manner that would be more restrictive than the criteria in 
     paragraph (1) should be entered into only pursuant to the 
     treaty making powers of the President under the Constitution.
       (c) Prohibition on Funding.--Funds appropriated or 
     otherwise made available to the Department of Defense for 
     fiscal year 1996 may not be obligated or expended to 
     implement an agreement with any of the independent states of 
     the former Soviet Union entered into after January 1, 1995 
     that would establish a demarcation between theater missile 
     defense systems and anti-ballistic missile systems for 
     purposes of the ABM Treaty or that would restrict the 
     performance, operation, or deployment of United States 
     theater missile defense systems except: (1) to the extent 
     provided in an Act enacted subsequent to this Act; (2) to 
     implement that portion of any such agreement that implements 
     the criteria in subsection (b)(1); or (3) to implement any 
     such agreement that is entered into pursuant to the treaty 
     making power of the President under the Constitution.

                   AND EVALUATION.

       (a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following findings:
       (1) The Office of the Director of Operational Test and 
     Evaluation of the Department of Defense was created by 
     Congress to provide an independent validation and 
     verification on the suitability and effectiveness of new 
     weapons, and to ensure that the United States military 
     departments acquire weapons that are proven in an operational 
     environment before they are produced and used in combat.
       (2) The office is currently making significant 
     contributions to the process by which the Department of 
     Defense acquires new weapons by providing vital insights on 
     operational weapons tests to be used in this acquisition 
     process.
       (3) The office provides vital services to Congress in 
     providing an independent certification on the performance of 
     new weapons that have been operationally tested.
       (4) A provision of H.R.1530, an Act entitled ``An Act to 
     authorize appropriations for fiscal year 1996 for military 
     activities of the Department of Defense, for military 
     construction, and for defense activities of the Department of 
     Energy, to prescribe personnel strengths for such fiscal year 
     for the Armed Forces, and for other purposes'', agreed to by 
     the House of Representatives on June 15, 1995, contains a 
     provision that could substantially diminish the authority and 
     responsibilities of the office and perhaps cause the 
     elimination of the office and its functions.
       (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate 
     that--
       (1) the authority and responsibilities of the Office of the 
     Director of Operational Test and Evaluation of the Department 
     of Defense should not be diminished or eliminated; and
       (2) the conferees on H.R.1530, an Act entitled ``An Act to 
     authorize appropriations for fiscal year 1996 for military 
     activities of the Department of Defense, for military 
     construction, and for defense activities of the Department of 
     Energy, to prescribe personnel strengths for such fiscal year 
     for the Armed Forces, and for other purposes'' should not 
     propose to Congress a conference report on that Act that 
     would either diminish or eliminate the Office of the Director 
     of Operational Test and Evaluation or its functions.

     SEC. 243. BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY CENTER.

       (a) Establishment.--The Director of the Ballistic Missile

     members of the Ready Reserve an insurance program to be known 
     as the `Department of Defense Ready Reserve Income Insurance 
     Program'.
       ``(b) Administration.--The insurance program shall be 
     administered by the Secretary. The Secretary may prescribe in 
     regulations such rules, procedures, and policies as the 
     Secretary considers necessary or appropriate to carry out the 
     insurance program.

     ``Sec. 12523. Risk insured

       ``(a) In General.--The insurance program shall insure 
     members of the Ready Reserve against the risk of being 
     ordered into covered service.
       ``(b) Entitlement to Benefits.--(1) An insured member 
     ordered into covered service shall be entitled to payment of 
     a benefit for each month (and fraction thereof) of covered 
     service that exceeds 30 days of covered service, except that 
     no member may be paid under the insurance program for more 
     than 12 months of covered service served during any period of 
     18 consecutive months.
       ``(2) Payment shall be based solely on the insured status 
     of a member and on the period of covered service served by 
     the member. Proof of loss of income or of expenses incurred 
     as a result of covered service may not be required.

     ``Sec. 12524. Enrollment and election of benefits

       ``(a) Enrollment.--(1) Except as provided in subsection 
     (f), upon first becoming a member of the Ready Reserve, a 
     member shall be automatically enrolled for coverage under the 
     insurance program. An automatic enrollment of a member shall 
     be void if within 30 days after first becoming a member of 
     the Ready Reserve the member declines insurance under the 
     program in accordance with the regulations prescribed by the 
     Secretary.
       ``(2) Promptly after the insurance program is established, 
     the Secretary shall offer to members of the reserve 
     components who are then members of the Ready Reserve (other 
     than members ineligible under subsection (f)) an opportunity 
     to enroll for coverage under the insurance program. A member 
     who fails to enroll within 30 days after being offered the 
     opportunity shall be considered as having declined to be 
     insured under the program.
       ``(3) A member of the Ready Reserve ineligible to enroll 
     under subsection (f) shall be afforded an opportunity to 
     enroll upon being released from active duty if the member has 
     not previously had the opportunity to be enrolled under 
     paragraph (1) or (2). A member who fails to enroll within 30 
     days after being afforded that opportunity shall be 
     considered as having declined to be insured under the 
     program.
       ``(b) Election of Benefit Amount.--The amount of a member's 
     monthly benefit under an enrollment shall be the basic 
     benefit under subsection (a) of section 12525 of this title 
     unless the member elects a different benefit under subsection 
     (b) of such section within 30 days after first becoming a 
     member of the Ready Reserve or within 30 days after being 
     offered the opportunity to enroll, as the case may be.
       ``(c) Elections Irrevocable.--(1) An election to decline 
     insurance pursuant to paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (a) 
     is irrevocable.
       ``(2) Subject to subsection (d), the amount of coverage may 
     not be changed after enrollment.
       ``(d) Election To Terminate.--A member may terminate an 
     enrollment at any time.
       ``(e) Information To Be Furnished.--The Secretary shall 
     ensure that members referred to in subsection (a) are given a 
     written explanation of the insurance program and are advised 
     that they have the right to decline to be insured and, if not 
     declined, to elect coverage for a reduced benefit or an 
     enhanced benefit under subsection (b).
       ``(f) Members Ineligible To Enroll.--Members of the Ready 
     Reserve serving on active duty (or full-time National Guard 
     duty) are not eligible to enroll for coverage under the 
     insurance program. The Secretary may define any additional 
     category of members of the Ready Reserve to be excluded from 
     eligibility to purchase insurance under this chapter.

     ``Sec. 12525. Benefit amounts

       ``(a) Basic Benefit.--The basic benefit for an insured 
     member under the insurance program is $1,000 per month (as 
     adjusted under subsection (d)).
       ``(b) Reduced and Enhanced Benefits.--Under the regulations 
     prescribed by the Secretary, a person enrolled for coverage 
     under the insurance program may elect--
       ``(1) a reduced coverage benefit equal to one-half the 
     amount of the basic benefit; or
       ``(2) an enhanced benefit in the amount of $1,500, $2,000, 
     $2,500, $3,000, $3,500, $4,000, $4,500, or $5,000 per month 
     (as adjusted under subsection (d)).
       ``(c) Amount for Partial Month.--The amount of insurance 
     payable to an insured member for any period of covered 
     service that is less than one month shall be determined by 
     multiplying \1/30\ of the monthly benefit rate for the member 
     by the number of days of the covered service served by the 
     member during such period.
       ``(d) Adjustment of Amounts.--(1) The Secretary shall 
     determine annually the effect of inflation on benefits and 
     shall adjust the amounts set forth in subsections (a) and 
     (b)(2) to maintain the constant dollar value of the benefit.
       ``(2) If the amount of a benefit as adjusted under 
     paragraph (1) is not evenly divisible by $10, the amount 
     shall be rounded to the nearest multiple of $10, except that 
     an amount evenly divisible by $5 but not by $10 shall be 
     rounded to the next lower amount that is evenly divisible by 
     $10.

     ``Sec. 12526. Premiums

       ``(a) Establishment of Rates.--(1) The Secretary, in 
     consultation with the Board of Actuaries, shall prescribe the 
     premium rates for insurance under the insurance program.
       ``(2) The Secretary shall prescribe a fixed premium rate 
     for each $1,000 of monthly insurance benefit. The premium 
     amount shall be equal to the share of the cost attributable 
     to insuring the member and shall be the same for all members 
     of the Ready Reserve who are insured under the insurance 
     program for the same benefit amount. The Secretary shall 
     prescribe the rate on the basis of the best available 
     estimate of risk and financial exposure, levels of 
     subscription by members, and other relevant factors.

[[Page S 13404]]

       ``(b) Level Premiums.--The premium rate prescribed for the 
     first year of insurance coverage of an insured member shall 
     be continued without change for subsequent years of insurance 
     coverage, except that the Secretary, after consultation with 
     the Board of Actuaries, may adjust the premium rate in order 
     to fund inflation-adjusted benefit increases on an 
     actuarially sound basis.

     ``Sec. 12527. Payment of premiums

       ``(a) Methods of Payment.--(1) The monthly premium for 
     coverage of a member under the insurance program shall be 
     deducted and withheld from the insured member's basic pay for 
     inactive duty training each month.
       ``(2) An insured member who does not receive pay on a 
     monthly basis shall pay the Secretary directly the premium 
     amount applicable for the level of benefits for which the 
     member is insured.
       ``(b) Advance Pay for Premium.--The Secretary concerned may 
     advance to an insured member the amount equal to the first 
     insurance premium payment due under this chapter. The advance 
     may be paid out of appropriations for military pay. An 
     advance to a member shall be collected from the member either 
     by deducting and withholding the amount from basic pay 
     payable for the member or by collecting it from the member 
     directly. No disbursing or certifying officer shall be 
     responsible for any loss resulting from an advance under this 
     subsection.
       ``(c) Premiums To Be Deposited in Fund.--Premium amounts 
     deducted and withheld from the basic pay of insured members 
     and premium amounts paid directly to the Secretary shall be 
     credited to the Fund.

     ``Sec. 12528. Department of Defense Ready Reserve Income 
       Insurance Fund

       ``(a) Establishment.--There is established on the books of 
     the Treasury a fund to be known as the `Department of Defense 
     Ready Reserve Income Insurance Fund', which shall be 
     administered by the Secretary of the Treasury. The Fund shall 
     be used for the accumulation of funds in order to finance the 
     liabilities of the insurance program on an actuarially sound 
     basis.
       ``(b) Assets of Fund.--There shall be deposited into the 
     Fund the following:
       ``(1) Premiums paid under section 12527 of this title.
       ``(2) Any amount appropriated to the Fund.
       ``(3) Any return on investment of the assets of the Fund.
       ``(c) Availability.--Amounts in the Fund shall be available 
     for paying insurance benefits under the insurance program.
       ``(d) Investment of Assets of Fund.--The Secretary of the 
     Treasury shall invest such portion of the Fund as is not in 
     the judgment of the Secretary of Defense required to meet 
     current liabilities. Such investments shall be in public debt 
     securities with maturities suitable to the needs of the Fund, 
     as determined by the Secretary of Defense, and bearing 
     interest at rates determined by the Secretary of the 
     Treasury, taking into consideration current market yields on 
     outstanding marketable obligations of the United States of 
     comparable maturities. The income on such investments shall 
     be credited to the Fund.
       ``(e) Annual Accounting.--At the beginning of each fiscal 
     year, the Secretary, in consultation with the Board of 
     Actuaries and the Secretary of the Treasury, shall determine 
     the following:
       ``(1) The projected amount of the premiums to be collected, 
     investment earnings to be received, and any transfers or 
     appropriations to be made for the Fund for that fiscal year.
       ``(2) The amount for that fiscal year of any cumulative 
     unfunded liability (including any negative amount or any gain 
     to the Fund) resulting from payments of benefits.
       ``(3) The amount for that fiscal year (including any 
     negative amount) of any cumulative actuarial gain or loss to 
     the Fund.

     ``Sec. 12529. Board of Actuaries

       ``(a) Actuarial Responsibility.--The Board of Actuaries 
     shall have the actuarial responsibility for the insurance 
     program.
       ``(b) Valuations and Premium Recommendations.--The Board of 
     Actuaries shall carry out periodic actuarial valuations of 
     the benefits under the insurance program and determine a 
     premium rate methodology for the Secretary to use in setting 
     premium rates for the insurance program. The Board shall 
     conduct the first valuation and determine a premium rate 
     methodology not later than six months after the insurance 
     program is established.
       ``(c) Effects of Changed Benefits.--If at the time of any 
     actuarial valuation under subsection (b) there has been a 
     change in benefits under the insurance program that has been 
     made since the last such valuation and such change in 
     benefits increases or decreases the present value of amounts 
     payable from the Fund, the Board of Actuaries shall determine 
     a premium rate methodology, and recommend to the Secretary a 
     premium schedule, for the liquidation of any liability (or 
     actuarial gain to the Fund) resulting from such change and 
     any previous such changes so that the present value of the 
     sum of the scheduled premium payments (or reduction in 
     payments that would otherwise be made) equals the cumulative 
     increase (or decrease) in the present value of such benefits.
       ``(d) Actuarial Gains or Losses.--If at the time of any 
     such valuation the Board of Actuaries determines that there 
     has been an actuarial gain or loss to the Fund as a result of 
     changes in actuarial assumptions since the last valuation or 
     as a result of any differences, between actual and expected 
     experience since the last valuation, the Board shall 
     recommend to the Secretary a premium rate schedule for the 
     amortization of the cumulative gain or loss to the Fund 
     resulting from such changes in assumptions and any previous 
     such changes in assumptions or from the differences in actual 
     and expected experience, respectively, through an increase or 
     decrease in the payments that would otherwise be made to the 
     Fund.
       ``(e) Insufficient Assets.--If at any time liabilities of 
     the Fund exceed assets of the Fund as a result of members of 
     the Ready Reserve being ordered to active duty as described 
     in section 12521(2) of this title, and funds are unavailable 
     to pay benefits completely, the Secretary shall request the 
     President to submit to Congress a request for a special 
     appropriation to cover the unfunded liability. If 
     appropriations are not made to cover an unfunded liability in 
     any fiscal year, the Secretary shall reduce the amount of the 
     benefits paid under the insurance program to a total amount 
     that does not exceed the assets of the Fund expected to 
     accrue by the end of such fiscal year. Benefits that cannot 
     be paid because of such a reduction shall be deferred and may 
     be paid only after and to the extent that additional funds 
     become available.
       ``(f) Definition of Present Value.--The Board of Actuaries 
     shall define the term `present value' for purposes of this 
     subsection.

     ``Sec. 12530. Payment of benefits

       ``(a) Commencement of Payment.--An insured member who 
     serves in excess of 30 days of covered service shall be paid 
     the amount to which such member is entitled on a monthly 
     basis beginning not later than one month after the 30th day 
     of covered service.
       ``(b) Method of Payment.--The Secretary shall prescribe in 
     the regulations the manner in which payments shall be made to 
     the member or to a person designated in accordance with 
     subsection (c).
       ``(c) Designated Recipients.--(1) A member may designate in 
     writing another person (including a spouse, parent, or other 
     person with an insurable interest, as determined in 
     accordance with the regulations prescribed by the Secretary) 
     to receive payments of insurance benefits under the insurance 
     program.
       ``(2) A member may direct that payments of insurance 
     benefits for a person designated under paragraph (1) be 
     deposited with a bank or other financial institution to the 
     credit of the designated person.
       ``(d) Recipients in Event of Death of Insured Member.--Any 
     insurance payable under the insurance program on account of a 
     deceased member's period of covered service shall be paid, 
     upon the establishment of a valid claim, to the beneficiary 
     or beneficiaries which the deceased member designated in 
     writing. If no such designation has been made, the amount 
     shall be payable in accordance with the laws of the State of 
     the member's domicile.

     ``Sec. 12531. Purchase of insurance

       ``(a) Purchase Authorized.--The Secretary may, instead of 
     or in addition to underwriting the insurance program through 
     the Fund, purchase from one or more insurance companies a 
     policy or policies of group insurance in order to provide the 
     benefits required under this chapter. The Secretary may waive 
     any requirement for full and open competition in order to 
     purchase an insurance policy under this subsection.
       ``(b) Eligible Insurers.--In order to be eligible to sell 
     insurance to the Secretary for purposes of subsection (a), an 
     insurance company shall--
       ``(1) be licensed to issue insurance in each of the 50 
     States and in the District of Columbia; and

     such insurance companies have in effect in the United States.

     establish an administrative office at a place and under a 
     name designated by the Secretary.

     Secretary) as may elect to participate in such reinsurance.

     any policy purchased under this section.

     ``Sec. 12532. Termination for nonpayment of premiums; 
       forfeiture

       ``(a) Termination for Nonpayment.--The coverage of a member 
     under the insurance program shall terminate without prior 
     notice upon a failure of the member to make required monthly

     ``Sec. 850b. Art. 50b. Lack of mental capacity or mental 
       responsibility: commitment of accused for examination and 
       treatment

       ``(a) Persons Incompetent To Stand Trial.--(1) In the case 
     of a person determined under this chapter to be presently 
     suffering from a mental disease or defect rendering the 
     person mentally incompetent to the extent that the person is 
     unable to understand the nature of the proceedings against 
     that person or to conduct or cooperate intelligently in the 
     defense of the case, the general court-martial convening 
     authority for that person shall commit the person to the 
     custody of the Attorney General.
       ``(2) The Attorney General shall take action in accordance 
     with section 4241(d) of title 18.
       ``(3) If at the end of the period for hospitalization 
     provided for in section 4241(d) of title 18, it is determined 
     that the committed person's mental condition has not so 
     improved as to permit the trial to proceed, action shall be 
     taken in accordance with section 4246 of such title.
       ``(4)(A) When the director of a facility in which a person 
     is hospitalized pursuant to paragraph (2) determines that the 
     person has recovered to such an extent that the person is 
     able to understand the nature of the proceedings against the 
     person and to conduct or cooperate intelligently in the 
     defense of the case, the director shall promptly transmit a 
     notification of that determination to the Attorney General 
     and to the general court-martial convening authority for the 
     person. The director shall send a copy of the notification to 
     the person's counsel.
       ``(B) Upon receipt of a notification, the general court-
     martial convening authority shall promptly take custody of 
     the person unless the person covered by the notification is 
     no longer subject to this chapter. If the person is no longer 
     subject to this chapter, the Attorney General shall take any 
     action within the authority of the Attorney General that the 
     Attorney General considers appropriate regarding the person.
       ``(C) The director of the facility may retain custody of 
     the person for not more than 30 days after transmitting the 
     notifications required by subparagraph (A).
       ``(5) In the application of section 4246 of title 18 to a 
     case under this subsection, references to the court that 
     ordered the commitment of a person, and to the clerk of such 
     court, shall be deemed to refer to the general court-martial 
     convening authority for that person. However, if the person 
     is no longer subject to this chapter at a time relevant to 
     the application of such section to the person, the United 
     States district court for the district where the person is 
     hospitalized or otherwise may be found shall be considered as 
     the court that ordered the commitment of the person.
       ``(b) Persons Found Not Guilty by Reason of Lack of Mental 
     Responsibility.--(1) If a person is found by a court-martial 
     not guilty only by reason of lack of mental responsibility, 
     the person shall be committed to a suitable facility until 
     the person is eligible for release in accordance with this 
     section.
       ``(2) The court-martial shall conduct a hearing on the 
     mental condition in accordance with subsection (c) of section 
     4243 of title 18. Subsections (b) and (d) of that section 
     shall apply with respect to the hearing.
       ``(3) A report of the results of the hearing shall be made 
     to the general court-martial convening authority for the 
     person.
       ``(4) If the court-martial fails to find by the standard 
     specified in subsection (d) of section 4243 of title 18 that 
     the person's release would not create a substantial risk of 
     bodily injury to another person or serious damage of property 
     of another due to a present mental disease or defect--
       ``(A) the general court-martial convening authority may 
     commit the person to the custody of the Attorney General; and
       ``(B) the Attorney General shall take action in accordance 
     with subsection (e) of section 4243 of title 18.
       ``(5) Subsections (f), (g), and (h) of section 4243 of 
     title 18 shall apply in the case of a person hospitalized 
     pursuant to paragraph (4)(B), except that the United States 
     district court for the district where the person is 
     hospitalized shall be considered as the court that ordered 
     the person's commitment.
       ``(c) General Provisions.--(1) Except as otherwise provided 
     in this subsection and subsection (d)(1), the provisions of 
     section 4247 of title 18 apply in the administration of this 
     section.

     by (or by order of) a general court-martial convening 
     authority under this section, the reference in that section 
     to section 3006A of such title does not apply.

     title 18 referred to in this section apply according to the 
     provisions of this section notwithstanding section 4247(j) of

     of this title (article 2) terminates while the person is, 
     pursuant to this section, in the custody of the Attorney 
     General, hospitalized, or on conditional release under a 
     prescribed regimen of medical, psychiatric, or psychological 
     care or treatment, the provisions of this section 
     establishing requirements and procedures regarding a person 
     no longer subject to this chapter shall continue to apply to 
     that person notwithstanding the change of status.''.

     or other person taking action directs, to the dependents of 
     the accused.

     allowances under subsection (a) is set aside or disapproved 
     or, as finally approved, does not provide for a punishment 
     referred to in subsection (a), the member shall be paid the

     opposing armed force; or

     and

     SEC. 542. MERITORIOUS AND VALOROUS SERVICE DURING VIETNAM 
                   ERA: REVIEW AND AWARDS.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The Ia Drang Valley (Pleiku) campaign, carried out by 
     the Armed Forces of the United States in the Ia Drang Valley 
     of Vietnam from October 23, 1965, to November 26, 1965, is 
     illustrative of the many battles which pitted forces of the 
     United States against North Vietnamese Army regulars and Viet 
     Cong in vicious fighting in which many members of the Armed 
     Forces displayed extraordinary heroism, sacrifice, and 
     bravery which has not yet been officially recognized through 
     award of appropriate decorations.
       (2) Accounts of these battles published since the war ended 
     authoritatively document repeated acts of extraordinary 
     heroism, sacrifice, and bravery on the part of many members 
     of the Armed Forces who were engaged in these battles, many 
     of whom have never been officially recognized for those acts.
       (3) In some of the battles United States military units 
     suffered substantial losses, in some cases a majority of the 
     strength of the units.
       (4) The incidence of heavy casualties throughout the war 
     inhibited the timely collection of comprehensive and detailed 
     information to support recommendations for awards for the 
     acts of heroism, sacrifice, and bravery performed.
       (5) Requests to the Secretaries of the military departments 
     for review of award recommendations for those acts have been 
     denied because of restrictions in law and regulations that 
     require timely filing of recommendations and documented 
     justification.
       (6) Acts of heroism, sacrifice, and bravery performed in 
     combat by members of the Armed Forces of the United States 
     deserve appropriate and timely recognition by the people of 
     the United States.
       (7) It is appropriate to recognize military personnel for 
     acts of extraordinary heroism, sacrifice, or bravery that are 
     belatedly, but properly, documented by persons who witnessed 
     those acts.
       (b) Waiver of Restrictions on Awards.--(1) Notwithstanding 
     any other provision of law, the Secretary of Defense or the 
     Secretary of the military department concerned may award or 
     upgrade a decoration to any person for an act, an

     SEC. 714. PILOT PROGRAM OF INDIVIDUALIZED RESIDENTIAL MENTAL 
                   HEALTH SERVICES.

       (a) Program Required.--During fiscal year 1996, the 
     Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the other 
     administering Secretaries, shall carry out a pilot program 
     for providing wraparound services to covered beneficiaries 
     who are children in need of mental health services. The 
     Secretary shall carry out the pilot program in one region in 
     which the TRICARE program has been implemented as of the 
     beginning of such fiscal year.
       (b) Wraparound Services Defined.--For purposes of this 
     section, wraparound services are individualized mental health 
     services that a provider provides, principally in a 
     residential setting but also with follow-up services, in 
     return for payment on a case rate basis. For payment of the 
     case rate for a patient, the provider incurs the risk that it 
     will be necessary for the provider to provide the patient 
     with additional mental health services intermittently or on a 
     longer term basis after completion of the services provided 
     on a residential basis under a treatment plan.
       (c) Pilot Program Agreement.--Under the pilot program the 
     Secretary of Defense shall enter into an agreement with a 
     provider of mental health services that requires the 
     provider--
       (1) to provide wraparound services to covered beneficiaries 
     referred to in subsection (a);
       (2) to continue to provide such services to each 
     beneficiary as needed during the period of the agreement even 
     if the patient relocates outside the TRICARE program region 
     involved (but inside the United States) during that period; 
     and
       (3) to accept as payment for such services an amount not in 
     excess of the amount of the standard CHAMPUS residential 
     treatment clinic benefit payable with respect to the covered 
     beneficiary concerned (as determined in accordance with 
     section 8.1 of chapter 3 of volume II of the CHAMPUS policy 
     manual).
       (d) Report.--Not later than March 1, 1997, the Secretary of 
     Defense shall submit to the Committee on Armed Services of 
     the Senate and the Committee on National Security of the 
     House of Representatives a report on the program carried out 
     under this section. The report shall contain--
       (1) an assessment of the effectiveness of the program; and
       (2) the Secretary's views regarding whether the program 
     should be implemented in all regions where the TRICARE 
     program is carried out.

     SEC. 1013. NAMING AMPHIBIOUS SHIPS.

       (a) Findings.--The Senate finds that:
       (1) This year is the fiftieth anniversary of the battle of 
     Iwo Jima, one of the great victories in all of the Marine 
     Corps' illustrious history.
       (2) The Navy has recently retired the ship that honored 
     that battle, the U.S.S. IWO JIMA (LPH-2), the first ship in a 
     class of amphibious assault ships.
       (3) This Act authorizes the LHD-7, the final ship of the 
     Wasp class of amphibious assault ships that will replace the 
     Iwo Jima class of ships.
       (4) The Navy is planning to start building a new class of 
     amphibious transport docks, now called the LPD-17 class. This 
     Act also authorizes funds that will lead to procurement of 
     these vessels.
       (5) There has been some confusion in the rationale behind 
     naming new naval vessels with traditional naming conventions 
     frequently violated.
       (6) Although there have been good and sufficient reasons to 
     depart from naming conventions in the past, the rationale for 
     such departures has not always been clear.
       (b) Sense of the Senate.--In light of these findings, 
     expressed in subsection (a), it is the sense of the Senate 
     that the Secretary of the Navy should:
       (1) Name the LHD-7 the U.S.S. IWO JIMA.
       (2) Name the LPD-17 and all future ships of the LPD-17 
     class after famous Marine Corps battles or famous Marine 
     Corps heroes.

     adversaries or combatants of the United States, of technology 
     that threatens the national security or defense of the United 
     States.

     control policy of the United States in light of such 
     identification; and
       (3) the Government should utilize unilateral export 
     controls on dual-use items and technologies that are critical 
     to the military capabilities of the Armed Forces (regardless

       (A) pose a threat to the national security interests of the

     SEC. 1055. STRATEGIC COOPERATION BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES 
                   AND ISRAEL.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) The President and Congress have repeatedly declared the 
     long-standing United States commitment to maintaining the 
     qualitative superiority of the Israel Defense Forces over any 
     combination of potential adversaries.
       (2) Congress continues to recognize the many benefits to 
     the United States from its strategic relationship with 
     Israel, including that of enhanced regional stability and 
     technical cooperation.
       (3) Despite the historic peace effort in which Israel and 
     its neighbors are engaged, Israel continues to face severe 
     potential threats to its national security that are 
     compounded by terrorism and by the proliferation of weapons 
     of mass destruction and ballistic missiles.
       (4) Congress supports enhanced United States cooperation 
     with Israel in all fields and, especially, in finding new 
     ways to deter or counter mutual threats.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) the President should ensure that any conventional 
     defense system or technology offered by the United States for 
     sale to any member nation of the North Atlantic Treaty 
     Organization (NATO) or to any major non-NATO ally is 
     concurrently made available for purchase by Israel unless the 
     President determines that it would not be in the national 
     security interests of the United States to do so; and
       (2) the President should make available to Israel, within 
     existing technology transfer laws, regulations, and policies, 
     advanced United States technology necessary for achieving 
     continued progress in cooperative United States-Israel 
     research and development of theater missile defenses.

     SEC. 1056. SUPPORT SERVICES FOR THE NAVY AT THE PORT OF 
                   HAIFA, ISRAEL.

       It is the sense of Congress that the Secretary of the Navy 
     should promptly undertake such actions as are necessary--
       (1) to improve the services available to the Navy at the 
     Port of Haifa, Israel; and
       (2) to ensure that the continuing increase in commercial 
     activities at the Port of Haifa does not adversely affect the 
     availability to the Navy of the services required by the Navy 
     at the port.

     SEC. 1057. PROHIBITION ON ASSISTANCE TO TERRORIST COUNTRIES.

       (a) Prohibition.--Subchapter I of chapter 134 of title 10,

       ``(1) any country with respect to which the Secretary of 
     State has made a determination under section 6(j)(1)(A) of 
     the Export Administration Act of 1979 (50 App. 2405(j));
       ``(2) any country identified in the latest report submitted 
     to Congress under section 140 of the Foreign Relations 
     Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1988 and 1989 (22 U.S.C. 
     2656f), as providing significant support for international 
     terrorism; or
       ``(3) any other country that, as determined by the 
     President--
       ``(A) grants sanctuary from prosecution to any individual 
     or group that has committed an act of international 
     terrorism; or

     of subsection (a) to a country if the President determines 
     that it is in the national security interests of the United 
     States to do so or that the waiver should be granted for 
     humanitarian reasons.
       ``(2) The President shall--
       ``(A) notify the Committees on Armed Services and Foreign 
     Relations of the Senate and the Committees on National 
     Security and on International Relations of the House of 
     Representatives at least 15 days before the waiver takes 
     effect; and
       ``(B) publish a notice of the waiver in the Federal 
     Register.

     terrorism' has the meaning given that term in section 140(d) 
     of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1988 
     and 1989 (22 U.S.C. 2656f(d)).''.

     beginning of subchapter I of such chapter is amended by 
     adding at the end the following:

``2249a. Prohibition on assistance to terrorist countries.''.
     SEC. 1058. INTERNATIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION AND TRAINING.

       (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) it is in the national security interest of the United 
     States to promote military professionalism (including an 
     understanding of and respect for the proper role of the 
     military in a civilian-led democratic society), the effective 
     management of defense resources, the recognition of 
     internationally recognized human rights, and an effective 
     military justice system within the armed forces of allies of 
     the United States and of countries friendly to the United 
     States;
       (2) it is in the national security interest of the United 
     States to foster rapport, understanding, and cooperation 
     between the Armed Forces of the United States and the armed 
     forces of allies of the United States and of countries 
     friendly to the United States;
       (3) the international military education and training 
     program is a low-cost method of promoting military 
     professionalism within the armed forces of allies of the 
     United States and of countries friendly to the United 
     States and fostering better relations between the Armed 
     Forces of the United States and those armed forces;
       (4) the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact 
     alliance and the spread of democracy in the Western 
     Hemisphere have created an opportunity to promote the 
     military professionalism of the armed forces of the affected 
     nations;
       (5) funding for the international military education and 
     training program of the United States has decreased 
     dramatically in recent years;
       (6) the decrease in funding for the international military 
     education and training program has resulted in a major 
     decrease in the participation of personnel from Asia, Latin 
     America, and Africa in the program;
       (7) the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the 
     commanders in chief of the regional combatant commands have 
     consistently testified before congressional committees that 
     the international military education and training program 
     fosters cooperation with and improves military management, 
     civilian control over the military forces, and respect for 
     human rights within foreign military forces; and
       (8) the delegation by the President to the Secretary of 
     Defense of authority to perform functions relating to the 
     international military education and training program is 
     appropriate and should be continued.
       (b) Activities Authorized.--(1) Part I of subtitle A of 
     title 10, United States Code, is amended by adding at the end 
     the following:

     arms control agreement; and
       (B) the United States has no responsibility under the

       (2) The limitation in paragraph (1) does not apply to a use 
     of funds to fulfill a policy of the United States to

     control agreement if--
       (A) the policy does not modify any obligation imposed by 
     the arms control agreement;
       (B) the President--
       (i) issued or approved the policy before the date of the 
     enactment of this Act; or
       (ii) has entered into an agreement on the policy with the 
     government of another country or has approved an agreement on

     SEC. 1061. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON LIMITING THE PLACING OF 
                   UNITED STATES FORCES UNDER UNITED NATIONS 
                   COMMAND OR CONTROL.

       (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
       (1) the President has made United Nations peace operations 
     a major component of the foreign and security policies of the 
     United States;
       (2) the President has committed United States military 
     personnel under United Nations operational control to 
     missions in Haiti, Croatia, and Macedonia that could endanger 
     those personnel;
       (3) the President has committed the United States to deploy 
     as many as 25,000 military personnel to Bosnia-Herzegovina as 
     peacekeepers under United Nations command and control in the 
     event that the parties to that conflict reach a peace 
     agreement;
       (4) although the President has insisted that he will retain 
     command of United States forces at all times, in the past 
     this has meant administrative control of United States forces 
     only, while operational control has been ceded to United 
     Nations commanders, some of whom were foreign nationals;
       (5) the experience of United States forces participating in 
     combined United States-United Nations operations in Somalia, 
     and in combined United Nations-NATO operations in the former 
     Yugoslavia, demonstrate that prerequisites for effective 
     military operations such as unity of command and clarity of 
     mission have not been met by United Nations command and 
     control arrangements; and
       (6) despite the many deficiencies in the conduct of United 
     Nations peace operations, there may be occasions when it is 
     in the national security interests of the United States to 
     participate in such operations.
       (b) Policy.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) the President should consult closely with Congress 
     regarding any United Nations peace operation that could 
     involve United States combat forces, and that such 
     consultations should continue throughout the duration of such 
     activities;
       (2) the President should consult with Congress prior to a 
     vote within the United Nations Security Council on any 
     resolution which would authorize, extend, or revise the 
     mandates for such activities;
       (3) in view of the complexity of United Nations peace 
     operations and the difficulty of achieving unity of command 
     and expeditious decisionmaking, the United States should 
     participate in such operations only when it is clearly in the 
     national security interest to do so;
       (4) United States combat forces should be under the 
     operational control of qualified commanders and should have 
     clear and effective command and control arrangements and 
     rules of engagement (which do not restrict their self-defense 
     in any way) and clear and unambiguous mission statements; and
       (5) none of the Armed Forces of the United States should be 
     under the operational control of foreign nationals in United 
     Nations peace enforcement operations except in the most 
     extraordinary circumstances.
       (c) Definitions.--For purposes of this section--
       (1) the term ``United Nations peace enforcement 
     operations'' means any international peace enforcement or 
     similar activity that is authorized by the United Nations 
     Security Council under chapter VII of the Charter of the 
     United Nations; and
       (2) the term ``United Nations peace operations'' means any 
     international peacekeeping, peacemaking, peace enforcement, 
     or similar activity that is authorized by the United Nations 
     Security Council under chapter VI or VII of the Charter of 
     the United Nations.

     SEC. 1062. SENSE OF SENATE ON PROTECTION OF UNITED STATES 
                   FROM BALLISTIC MISSILE ATTACK.

       (a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following findings:
       (1) The proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and 
     ballistic missiles presents a threat to the entire World.
       (2) This threat was recognized by Secretary of Defense 
     William J. Perry in February 1995 in the Annual Report to the 
     President and the Congress which states that ``[b]eyond the 
     five declared nuclear weapons states, at least 20 other 
     nations have acquired or are attempting to acquire weapons of 
     mass destruction--nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons--
     and the means to deliver them. In fact, in most areas where 
     United States forces could potentially be engaged on a large 
     scale, many of the most likely adversaries already possess 
     chemical and biological weapons. Moreover, some of these same 
     states appear determined to acquire nuclear weapons.''.
       (3) At a summit in Moscow in May 1995, President Clinton 
     and President Yeltsin commented on this threat in a Joint 
     Statement which recognizes `` . . . the threat posed by 
     worldwide proliferation of missiles and missile technology 
     and the necessity of counteracting this threat . . . ''.
       (4) At least 25 countries may be developing weapons of mass 
     destruction and the delivery systems for such weapons.
       (5) At least 24 countries have chemical weapons programs in 
     various stages of research and development.
       (6) Approximately 10 countries are believed to have 
     biological weapons programs in various stages of development.
       (7) At least 10 countries are reportedly interested in the 
     development of nuclear weapons.
       (8) Several countries recognize that weapons of mass 
     destruction and missiles increase their ability to deter, 
     coerce, or otherwise threaten the United States. Saddam 
     Hussein recognized this when he stated, on May 8, 1990, that 
     ``[o]ur missiles cannot reach Washington. If they could reach 
     Washington, we would strike it if the need arose.''.
       (9) International regimes like the Non-Proliferation 
     Treaty, the Biological Weapons Convention, and the Missile 
     Technology Control Regime, while effective, cannot by 
     themselves halt the spread of weapons and technology. On 
     January 10, 1995, Director of Central Intelligence, James 
     Woolsey, said with regard to Russia that `` . . . we are 
     particularly concerned with the safety of nuclear, chemical, 
     and biological materials as well as highly enriched uranium 
     or plutonium, although I want to stress that this is 

[[Page S 13429]]
     a global problem. For example, highly enriched uranium was recently 
     stolen from South Africa, and last month Czech authorities 
     recovered three kilograms of 87.8 percent-enriched HEU in the 
     Czech Republic--the largest seizure of near-weapons grade 
     material to date outside the Former Soviet Union.''.
       (10) The possession of weapons of mass destruction and 
     missiles by developing countries threatens our friends, 
     allies, and forces abroad and will ultimately threaten the 
     United States directly. On August 11, 1994, Deputy Secretary 
     of Defense John Deutch said that ``[i]f the North Koreans 
     field the Taepo Dong 2 missile, Guam, Alaska, and parts of 
     Hawaii would potentially be at risk.''.
       (11) The end of the Cold War has changed the strategic 
     environment facing and between the United States and Russia. 
     That the Clinton Administration believes the environment to 
     have changed was made clear by Secretary of Defense William 
     J. Perry on September 20, 1994, when he stated that ``[w]e 
     now have the opportunity to create a new relationship, based 
     not on MAD, not on Mutual Assured Destruction, but rather on 
     another acronym, MAS, or Mutual Assured Safety.''.
       (12) The United States and Russia have the opportunity to 
     create a relationship based on trust rather than fear.
       (b) Sense of Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that 
     all Americans should be protected from accidental, 
     intentional, or limited ballistic missile attack. It is the 
     further sense of the Senate that front-line troops of the 
     United States Armed Forces should be protected from missile 
     attacks.
       (c) Funding for Corps SAM and Boost-Phase Interceptor 
     Programs.--
       (1) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act, of the 
     funds authorized to be appropriated by section 201(4), 
     $35,000,000 shall be available for the Corps SAM/MEADS 
     program.
       (2) With a portion of the funds authorized in paragraph (1) 
     for the Corps SAM/MEADS program, the Secretary of Defense 
     shall conduct a study to determine whether a Theater Missile 
     Defense system derived from Patriot technologies could 
     fulfill the Corps SAM/MEADS requirements at a lower estimated 
     life-cycle cost than is estimated for the cost of the United 
     States portion of the Corps SAM/MEADS program.
       (3) The Secretary shall provide a report on the study 
     required under paragraph (2) to the congressional defense 
     committees not later than March 1, 1996.
       (4) Of the funds authorized to be appropriated by section 
     201(4), not more than $3,403,413,000 shall be available for 
     missile defense programs within the Ballistic Missile Defense 
     Organization.
       (d) Obligation of Funds.--Of the amounts referred to in 
     section (c)(1), $10,000,000 may not be obligated until the 
     report referred to in subsection (c)(2) is submitted to the 
     congressional defense committees.

     assistance or medicine;''.

     submitted in both a classified and unclassified version.
       (2) Each report under paragraph (1) shall--

     given for a student or (in the case of an individual younger

     any or all of such information should not be released without 
     obtaining prior consent from the student or the parent, as 
     the case may be; and
       (3) the Secretary of Defense should prescribe regulations

       personnel and dependents: requirement for recognition by

     Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994 (Public Law 103-160;

     SEC. 1094. SENSE OF SENATE REGARDING ETHICS COMMITTEE 
                   INVESTIGATION.

       (a) The Senate finds that--
       (1) the Senate Select Committee on Ethics has a thirty-one 
     year tradition of handling investigations of official 
     misconduct in a bipartisan, fair and professional manner;
       (2) the Ethics Committee, to ensure fairness to all parties 
     in any investigation, must conduct its responsibilities 
     strictly according to established procedure and free from 
     outside interference;
       (3) the rights of all parties to bring an ethics complaint 
     against a member, officer, or employee of the Senate are 
     protected by the 

[[Page S 13433]]
     official rules and precedents of the Senate and the Ethics Committee;
       (4) any Senator responding to a complaint before the Ethics 
     Committee deserves a fair and non-partisan hearing according 
     to the rules of the Ethics Committee;
       (5) the rights of all parties in an investigation--both the 
     individuals who bring a complaint or testify against a 
     Senator, and any Senator charged with an ethics violation--
     can only be protected by strict adherence to the established 
     rules and procedures of the ethics process;
       (6) the integrity of the Senate and the integrity of the 
     Ethics Committee rest on the continued adherence to 
     precedents and rules, derived from the Constitution; and,
       (7) the Senate as a whole has never intervened in any 
     ongoing Senate Ethics Committee investigation, and has 
     considered matters before that Committee only after the 
     Committee has submitted a report and recommendations to the 
     Senate;
       (b) Therefore, it is the Sense of the Senate that the 
     Select committee on Ethics should not, in the case of Senator 
     Robert Packwood of Oregon, deviate from its customary and 
     standard procedure, and should, prior to the Senate's final 
     resolution of the case, follow whatever procedures it deems 
     necessary and appropriate to provide a full and complete

     SEC. 1099. LANDMINE USE MORATORIUM.

       (a) Findings.--The Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) On September 26, 1994, the President declared that it 
     is a goal of the United States to eventually eliminate 
     antipersonnel landmines.
       (2) On December 15, 1994, the United Nations General 
     Assembly adopted a resolution sponsored by the United States 
     which called for international efforts to eliminate 
     antipersonnel landmines.
       (3) According to the Department of State, there are an 
     estimated 80,000,000 to 110,000,000 unexploded landmines in 
     62 countries.
       (4) Antipersonnel landmines are routinely used against 
     civilian populations and kill and maim an estimated 70 people 
     each day, or 26,000 people each year.
       (5) The Secretary of State has noted that landmines are 
     ``slow-motion weapons of mass destruction''.
       (6) There are hundreds of varieties of antipersonnel 
     landmines, from a simple type available at a cost of only two 
     dollars to the more complex self-destructing type, and all 
     landmines of whatever variety kill and maim civilians, as 
     well as combatants, indiscriminately.
       (b) Conventional Weapons Convention Review.--It is the 
     sense of Congress that, at the United Nations conference to 
     review the 1980 Conventional Weapons Convention, including 
     Protocol II on landmines, that is to be held from September 
     25 to October 13, 1995, the President should actively support 
     proposals to modify Protocol II that would implement as 
     rapidly as possible the United States goal of eventually 
     eliminating antipersonnel landmines.
       (c) Moratorium on Use of Antipersonnel Landmines.--
       (1) United states moratorium.--(A) For a period of one year 
     beginning three years after the date of the enactment of this 
     Act, the United States shall not use antipersonnel landmines 
     except along internationally recognized national borders or 
     in demilitarized zones within a perimeter marked area that is 
     monitored by military personnel and protected by adequate 
     means to ensure the exclusion of civilians.

[[Page S 13434]]

       (B) If the President determines, before the end of the 
     period of the United States moratorium under subparagraph 
     (A), that the governments of other nations are implementing 
     moratoria on use of antipersonnel landmines similar to the 
     United States moratorium, the President may extend the period 
     of the United States moratorium for such additional period as 
     the President considers appropriate.
       (2) Other nations.--It is the sense of Congress that the 
     President should actively encourage the governments of other 
     nations to join the United States in solving the global 
     landmine crisis by implementing moratoria on use of 
     antipersonnel landmines similar to the United States 
     moratorium as a step toward the elimination of antipersonnel 
     landmines.
       (d) Antipersonnel Landmine Exports.--It is the sense of 
     Congress that, consistent with the United States moratorium 
     on exports of antipersonnel landmines and in order to further 
     discourage the global proliferation of antipersonnel 
     landmines, the United States Government should not sell, 
     license for export, or otherwise transfer defense articles 
     and services to any foreign government which, as determined 
     by the President, sells, exports, or otherwise transfers 
     antipersonnel landmines.
       (e) Definitions.--
       For purposes of this Act:
       (1) Antipersonnel landmine.--The term ``antipersonnel 
     landmine'' means any munition placed under, on, or near the 
     ground or other surface area, delivered by artillery, rocket, 
     mortar, or similar means, or dropped from an aircraft and 
     which is designed, constructed, or adapted to be detonated or 
     exploded by the presence, proximity, or contact of a person.
       (2) 1980 conventional weapons convention.--The term ``1980 
     Conventional Weapons Convention'' means the Convention on 
     Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Certain 
     Conventional Weapons Which May Be Deemed To Be Excessively 
     Injurious or To Have Indiscriminate Effects, together with 
     the protocols relating thereto, done at Geneva on October 10, 
     1980.

     United States victory over Japan in World War II.
       (2) The Battle of Midway proved to be the turning point in 
     the war in the Pacific, as United States Navy forces

     during the battle that the Imperial Japanese Navy never again 
     took the offensive against United States or allied forces.
       (3) During the Battle of Midway, an outnumbered force of 
     the United States Navy, consisting of 29 ships and other 
     units of the Armed Forces under the command of Admiral Nimitz 
     and Admiral Spruance, out-maneuvered and out-fought 350 ships 
     of the Imperial Japanese Navy.
       (4) It is in the public interest to erect a memorial to the 
     Battle of Midway that is suitable to express the enduring 
     gratitude of the American people for victory in the battle 
     and to inspire future generations of Americans with the 
     heroism and sacrifice of the members of the Armed Forces who 
     achieved that victory.
       (b) Sense of Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that--
       (1) the Midway Islands and the surrounding seas deserve to 
     be memorialized;
       (2) the historic structures related to the Battle of Midway 
     should be maintained, in accordance with the National 
     Historic Preservation Act, and subject to the availability of 
     appropriations for that purpose.
       (3) appropriate access to the Midway Islands by survivors 
     of the Battle of Midway, their families, and other visitors 
     should be provided in a manner that ensures the public health 
     and safety on the Midway Islands and the conservation and 
     natural resources of those islands in accordance with 
     existing Federal law.

     reutilization.
       (2) The review shall include an analysis of--
       (A) the results of the physical and chemical integrity 
     report conducted by the Army on existing stockpile;
       (B) a determination of the viability of transportation of 
     any portion of the stockpile, to include drained agent from 
     munitions and the munitions;

     reutilization of the facilities referred to in paragraph (1) 
     on the communities referred to in that paragraph; and

     SEC. 1099F. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON CHEMICAL WEAPONS 
                   CONVENTION AND START II TREATY RATIFICATION.

       (a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following findings:
       (1) Proliferation of chemical or nuclear weapons materials 
     poses a danger to United States national security, and the 
     threat or use of such materials by terrorists would directly 
     threaten United States citizens at home and abroad.
       (2) The Chemical Weapons Convention negotiated and signed 
     by President Bush would make it more difficult for would-be 
     proliferators, including terrorists, to acquire or use 
     chemical weapons, if ratified and fully implemented as 
     signed, by all signatories.
       (3) The START II Treaty negotiated and signed by President 
     Bush would help reduce the danger of potential proliferators, 
     including terrorists, acquiring nuclear warheads and 
     materials, and would contribute to United States-Russian 
     bilateral efforts to secure and dismantle nuclear warheads, 
     if ratified and fully implemented as signed by both parties.
       (4) It is in the national security interest of the United 
     States to take effective steps to make it harder for 
     proliferators or would-be terrorists to obtain chemical or 
     nuclear materials for use in weapons.

[[Page S 13435]]

       (5) The President has urged prompt Senate action on, and 
     advice and consent to ratification of, the START II Treaty 
     and the Chemical Weapons Convention.
       (6) The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff has testified 
     to Congress that ratification and full implementation of both 
     treaties by all parties is in the United States national 
     interest, and has strongly urged prompt Senate advice and 
     consent to their ratification.
       (b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate 
     that the United States and all other parties to the START II 
     and Chemical Weapons Convention should promptly ratify and 
     fully implement, as negotiated, both treaties.
