          STATEMENTS ON INTRODUCED BILLS AND JOINT RESOLUTIONS

      By Mrs. FEINSTEIN (for herself and Mr. Thompson):
  S. 1162. A bill to repeal the requirement relating to specific 
statutory authorization for increases in judicial salaries, to provide 
for automatic annual increases for judicial salaries, to provide for a 
9.6 percent increase in judicial salaries, and for other purposes; to 
the Committee on the Judiciary.
  Mrs. FEINSTEIN. Mr. President, I rise, along with Senator Thompson, 
to introduce legislation to restore pay equity for our Federal judges. 
This legislation would guarantee judges automatic and annual cost-of-
living adjustments, COLAs, just like other rank-and-file Federal 
employees.
  In addition, the legislation would end a decade of Federal judicial 
salary neglect by giving judges a one-time salary increase of 9.6 
percent. In the past decade, Congress has denied COLAs for judges in 
four separate years, in 1994, 1995, 1996, and 1998. This bill would 
restore to Federal justices the four COLAs they have lost.
  In his year-end report on the state of the Federal Judiciary, Chief 
Justice William Rehnquist called the ``the need to increase judicial 
salaries'' the most pressing issue facing the Federal judiciary.
  Simply put, while government service offers its own rewards, we 
should not create financial disincentives to service on the Federal 
bench.
  Federal judges bear enormous responsibility as they preside over the 
most pressing legal issues. Often, they must render life-or-death 
decisions or preside over cases with millions of dollars at stake. For 
this vitally important work, they deserve appropriate compensation.
  Recently, Congress took some action to restore equity in Federal 
salaries by doubling the salary of the President of the United States 
from $200,000 to $400,000.
  Congress should now consider an appropriate pay adjustment for the 
Federal judiciary. As of January 2001, Federal district judges receive 
an annual salary of $145,000. If judges had received the COLAs to which 
they were entitled, a Federal District judge's salary would actually be 
$164,700, nearly $20,000 higher.
  Now, $145,000 is a lot more money than the salary of a typical worker 
but it is not so high when you compare it to equivalent positions of 
authority in the private sector. For example, the average partner in a 
major national law firm earns well over $500,000 per year.
  It is even more striking to note that major national law firms are 
offering first-year associates salaries topping $125,000 a year. With 
bonuses, some of these newly minted lawyers are earning more than 
appellate judges.
  The bottom line is that we cannot expect to keep our country's best 
lawyers interested in serving on the Federal bench if we continue to 
denigrate the salary of the post. Just since 1993, the salary of 
Federal judges, adjusted for inflation, has declined by 13 percent.
  Not surprisingly, more and more judges are leaving the Federal bench. 
Between 1991 and 2000, 52 Federal judges resigned their seats, many of 
them for the purposes of returning to private practice. These 52 judges 
represent 40 percent of the 125 Federal judges who have left the bench 
since 1965.
  Attorneys should not expect to become wealthy through an appointment 
as a Federal judge. Neither should judges expect to have their salaries 
eroded by Congress' failure to give them Cost-of-Living Adjustments.
  Preserving judicial salaries is vital to maintaining the high quality 
of our Federal judiciary. I look forward to working with my colleagues 
in the Senate to restore fairness to judicial compensation.
                                 ______
                                 
      By Mr. CORZINE (for himself, Mr. Carper, and Mr. Schumer):
  S. 1163. A bill to increase the mortgage loan limits under the 
National Housing Act for multifamily housing mortgage insurance; to the 
Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs.
  Mr. CORZINE. Mr. President, I am pleased to join with my 
distinguished colleague, Senator Carper, in introducing legislation, 
the FHA Multifamily Housing Loan Limit Adjustment Act, that would 
improve access to affordable housing.
  Our Nation currently faces a critical housing shortage. A report 
released recently by the Center for Housing Policy, ``Housing America's 
Working Families,'' documented the overwhelming need for affordable 
housing. The report indicates that in 1997, nearly 14 million families 
had a critical housing need, meaning they either lived in substandard 
housing conditions or spent

[[Page S7497]]

more than half their monthly income on the cost of housing. The FHA 
Multifamily Housing Loan Limit Adjustment Act would provide America's 
working families with increased access to affordable rental housing.
  The bill is simple, it increases by 25 percent the statutory limits 
for multifamily project loans that can be insured by the FHA. This 
increase reflects the increased costs associated with the production of 
multifamily units since 1992, when these limits were last revised. The 
bill also would index the loan limits for inflation and increases to 
the Annual Construction Cost Index, which is published by the Census 
Bureau.
  Rising construction costs have resulted in a shortage of moderately 
priced affordable rental units. Rent increases now exceed inflation in 
all regions of the country, and new affordable rental units have become 
increasingly harder to find. Because of the current dollar limits on 
loans, FHA insurance cannot be used to help finance construction in 
high-cost urban areas such as the New York/New Jersey metropolitan 
area, Philadelphia and San Francisco.
  By increasing the limits on loans for rental housing we will create 
more incentives for public/private investment in communities through 
America and spur the new production of cooperative housing projects, 
rental housing for the elderly, and new construction or substantial 
rehabilitation of apartments by for- and non-profit entities.
  Late last year, Congress sought, through a number of initiatives, to 
implement programs aimed at increasing the production of affordable 
housing for the millions of Americans who currently face critical 
housing needs. For example, we expanded the Low Income Housing Tax 
Credit, the one Federal program designed to produce new housing. We 
also increased the supply of housing vouchers. However, these programs 
were targeted largely at families with very low incomes. Currently, 
there are no programs designed specifically to provide access to 
affordable rental housing for America's working middle class, the 
people who serve as the engine of our nation's economy. Far too many of 
these individuals, including vital municipal workers like teachers, 
nurses and police officers, are struggling to gain access to affordable 
housing even remotely near where they work.
  Without this much-needed adjustment to the FHA multifamily loan 
limits, access to affordable housing for our working-citizens will 
continue to lag, thousands of more families will join the 14 million 
people who currently face severe housing needs and our nation's economy 
will suffer.
  This bill is modeled after bipartisan legislation introduced in the 
House by my colleague from New Jersey, Congresswoman Marge Roukema, and 
Congressman Barney Frank of Massachusetts. The bill is supported by 
housing and community advocates and has also been endorsed by the 
National Association of Home Builders, the National Association of 
Realtors, and the Mortgage Bankers Association.
  I hope my Senate colleagues will support the legislation and help us 
ensure that America's working families have access to affordable 
housing.
  Mr. CARPER. Mr. President, I am very pleased to join today with my 
distinguished colleague from new Jersey to introduce the FHA 
Multifamily Housing Mortgage Loan Limit Adjustment Act of 2001.
  A recent report published by the National Housing Conference's Center 
for Housing Policy found that in 1997, nearly 14 million families 
either lived in substandard housing or spent more than half of their 
monthly income on housing costs. This affordable housing shortage also 
comes at a time of limited resources. Thus, we have to find the best 
use of each dollar at our disposal, as well as the most effective use 
of existing Federal programs to stimulate new production and 
substantial rehabilitation.
  The Federal Housing Administration's, FHA, multifamily mortgage 
insurance is an important financing device for housing production. 
Unfortunately, production through this public/private partnership has 
been low in recent years. One of the reasons for FHA's absence from the 
rental housing market is that the multifamily loan limits have not been 
increased since 1992. While the annual Construction Cost Index, 
published by the Census Bureau, has increased over 23 percent since 
1992, FHA's multifamily loan limits have remained static.
  These rising construction costs have contributed to FHA's inability 
to be a significant participant in the production of multifamily 
housing. Increasing these loan limits by 25 percent, as this 
legislation does, is something Congress can do today to address 
immediately the shortage is affordable rental housing. This bill 
modifies a current federal program, FHA multifamily insurance, to make 
that program more effective. Importantly, this legislation also indexes 
the loan limits to the Annual Construction Cost Index.
  I ask my colleagues to join with Senator Corzine and me to increase 
these multifamily loan limits so that more working families will have 
access to affordable rental housing.
                                 ______
                                 
      By Mr. EDWARDS:
  S. 1164. A bill to provide for the enhanced protection of the privacy 
of location information of users of location-based services and 
applications, and for other purposes; to the Committee on Commerce, 
Science, and Transportation.
  Mr. EDWARDS. Mr. President, I rise today to introduce much-needed 
legislation to protect the privacy of consumers who use technologies 
that can pinpoint their location. Under my bill, the Location Privacy 
Protection Act, any company that monitors consumers' physical location 
will be prohibited from using or disclosing that information without 
express permission from the consumer. And third parties that gain 
access to the information cannot use or disclose it without the 
individual's permission first.
  Within the next few years, new technologies will allow companies to 
know our location any time of day or night. Our cell phones, pagers, 
cars, palm pilots and other devices will enable companies to constantly 
track where we go and how often we go there. These services can have 
enormous advantages. For example, public safety and rescue teams can 
save lives with systems that enable them to quickly locate crash 
victims. Imagine being able to ask your cell phone for directions to 
the nearest Italian restaurant. Or imagine you are traveling in a new 
city and your pager alerts you when you are within a block of your 
favorite coffee shop, which happens to be running a sale on coffee. The 
possibilities for location-based services and application are endless.
  But these new technologies also raise serious privacy issues. 
Location information is very private, sensitive information that can be 
misused to harass consumers with unwanted solicitations or to draw 
inaccurate or embarrassing inferences about them. And in extreme cases, 
improper disclosure of location information to a domestic abuser or 
stalker could place a person in physical danger.
  The wireless industry is unique in that it has worked with Congress 
to guarantee some privacy protections in the law, and it should be 
commended for recognizing the sensitivity of location information. 
However, although these laws are a good first step, we need to build on 
them and strengthen them. For example, although under the law customers 
must give their permission before wireless carriers can use or disclose 
their location information, the law does not require carriers to 
clearly notify consumers about how their location information will be 
used if they do grant their permission. Consumers also have no control 
over what happens to their information once third parties gain access 
to it. These parties are free to share it with anyone they please. And 
shockingly, there are no laws that protect the privacy of users of new 
technologies like telematics, services that allow drivers to get 
directions at the push of a button in their cars, and global 
positioning systems.
  My legislation puts control over location information in the hands of 
the consumer. It requires the FCC to issue new regulations prohibiting 
all providers of location-based services and applications from 
collecting, using, disclosing, or retaining location information 
without the customer's permission first. And customers must be given 
clear and conspicuous notice about what the company is going to do

[[Page S7498]]

with their location information. Customers also will have the right to 
ensure the accuracy of the information that is collected and companies 
will be required to keep that information safe from unauthorized 
access.
  Third parties will not be able to use or disclose location 
information without prior authorization from the customer. In this 
regard, my bill makes an exception if the third party is an emergency 
service. I believe that the FCC must be very careful not to interfere 
with the laws that have been carefully crafted to allow emergency 
medical rescue teams, public safety, fire services, hospital emergency 
facilities and other emergency services to respond to the user's call 
for help. These laws are critical to saving lives and I believe we 
should do everything we can to make sure they work.
  I would also like to point out that while my bill requires that the 
FCC rules not interfere with the ability of law enforcement to obtain 
location information pursuant to an appropriate court order, it does 
not provide the FCC with extraordinary authority to control when law 
enforcement can and cannot gain access to location information. 
Although I have concerns about unnecessary and surreptitious government 
surveillance, I believe that this issue is best addressed either 
separately, or at a later date. The purpose of my bill is primarily to 
lay down guidelines for when private persons, such as businesses, are 
able to use and disclose consumers' location information.
  The law needs to be strengthened, and we have the opportunity to do 
so while these location-based technologies are in their infancy. We 
have a unique opportunity to give consumers power over their location 
information before its commercial value becomes so great that it is 
impossible for consumers to prevent the buying and selling of this very 
personal information.
  In sum, I believe the Location Privacy Protection Act is a common 
sense measure offered at an ideal time. I know that wireless carriers 
and many companies such as OnStar, ATX, Qualcomm and others care deeply 
about privacy. I applaud them for their efforts and I look forward to 
continuing working with them on this issue.
  I ask unanimous consent that the text bill be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the bill was ordered to be printed in the 
Record, as follows:

                                S. 1164

       Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
     the United States of America in Congress assembled,

     SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

       This Act may be cited as the ``Location Privacy Protection 
     Act of 2001''.

     SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

       Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) Location-based services and applications allow 
     customers to receive services based on their geographic 
     location, position, or known presence. Telematics devices, 
     for instance, permit subscribers in vehicles to obtain 
     emergency road assistance, driving directions, or other 
     information with the push of a button. Other devices, such as 
     those with Internet access, support position commerce in 
     which notification of points of interest or promotions can be 
     provided to customers based on their known presence or 
     geographic location.
       (2) There is a substantial Federal interest in safeguarding 
     the privacy right of customers of location-based services or 
     applications to control the collection, use, retention of, 
     disclosure of, and access to their location information. 
     Location information is nonpublic information that can be 
     misused to commit fraud, to harass consumers with unwanted 
     messages, to draw embarrassing or inaccurate inferences about 
     them, or to discriminate against them. Improper disclosure of 
     or access to location information could also place a person 
     in physical danger. For example, location information could 
     be misused by stalkers or by domestic abusers.
       (3) The collection or retention of unnecessary location 
     information magnifies the risk of its misuse or improper 
     disclosure.
       (4) Congress has recognized the right to privacy of 
     location information by classifying location information as 
     customer proprietary network information subject to section 
     222 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 222), 
     thereby preventing use or disclosure of that information 
     without a customer's express prior authorization.
       (5) There is a substantial Federal interest in promoting 
     fair competition in the provision of wireless services and in 
     ensuring the consumer confidence necessary to ensure 
     continued growth in the use of wireless services. These goals 
     can be attained by establishing a set of privacy rules that 
     apply to wireless location information, regardless of 
     technology, and to all entities and services that generate or 
     receive access to such information.
       (6) It is in the public interest that the Federal 
     Communications Commission establish comprehensive rules to 
     protect the privacy of customers of location-based services 
     and applications and thereby enable customers to realize more 
     fully the benefits of location services and applications.

                                 ______
                                 
      By Mr. BIDEN (for himself, Mr. Kohl, and Mr. Reed):
  S. 1165. A bill to prevent juvenile crime, promote accountability by 
and rehabilitation of juvenile crime, punish and deter violent gang 
crime, and for other purposes; to the Committee on the Judiciary.
  Mr. BIDEN. Mr. President, I rise today to introduce, along with 
Senator Kohl and Senator Reed, the Juvenile Crime Prevention and 
Control Act of 2001. This is a balanced bill that recognizes the need 
to get tough on juvenile crime and violence, attempts to break the 
dangerous link between kids and guns, and, most importantly, puts the 
Federal Government firmly behind the proposition that preventing 
juvenile violence is the most effective crime fighting measure any of 
us could craft.
  Before I discuss the specifics of the bill, let me give a brief 
overview of the current state of juvenile crime in America. Juvenile 
crime, like almost all other categories of crime, is down. Last 
December, the FBI released statistics that show the homicide arrest 
rate for juveniles down 68 percent from its 1993 peak. We are now 
experiencing the lowest rate of juvenile homicide arrests since 1966. 
Between 1994 and 1999, the arrest rate of juveniles for violent crimes, 
murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault, dropped 36 percent.
  These statistics have not eased public concern about the scope and 
nature of juvenile crime. One 1998 poll showed that 62 percent of those 
asked believed juvenile crime was increasing. A poll conducted in 1999 
revealed that 71 percent thought it likely that a shooting could occur 
in a school in their community. In the face of these popular 
perceptions, the Education Department reports that American children 
face a one in 2 million chance of being killed in their school.
  Why the disparity? There are several reasons, in my opinion. First, 
and probably most importantly, while arrests of juveniles are 
unquestionably down, juvenile crime is still too high. The incidence of 
the most common crime committed by juveniles, property offenses, 
changed little throughout the last two decades. The rate of juvenile 
violent crime arrests has not yet returned to its 1988 level.
  Second, and this cannot be understated, too many of our kids have 
access to guns, and those guns are finding their way into our Nation's 
schools at an alarming rate. A report released last year by the 
Education Department revealed that over 3,500 students were expelled in 
1998 and 1999 for bringing guns to school, that's an average of 88 kids 
per week. The juvenile arrest rate for weapons crimes fell 39 percent 
from 1993 to 1999, but it too has not yet returned to 1988's low point.
  Third, the American people understand that crime cannot stay down 
forever. I like to say that fighting crime is like mowing the grass, If 
you don't keep at it, it's going to come back up. We have good, 
demographic reasons to think this is particularly true in the case of 
juvenile crime. Today, there are approximately 39 million children 
younger than age 10. These kids, the children of the baby boom 
generation, stand on the edge of their teen years, the years when every 
reliable study reveals they are most at-risk of turning to drugs and 
crime.
  What does this mean for juvenile crime? Even if we do everything 
right, even if we fund programs that work, put incorrigible juveniles 
behind bars, crack down on gun crimes, the demographic inevitability of 
this so-called ``baby boomerang" means there is likely to be a 20 
percent increase in juvenile murders by 2005. Such a jump would 
increase the overall murder rate by 5 percent. Our challenge is to make 
sure that does not happen.
  We need to take another look at the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency 
Prevention Act of 1974. That Act expired on September 30, 1996, and, 
despite the good efforts of several Congresses, Members on both sides 
of the aisle, and the prior Administration, it has not been 
reauthorized. We should get that job done in the 107th Congress. The 
bill I introduce today includes provisions to reauthorize the Act, to 
fine tune some of its grant provisions, and to make some common sense 
changes to our firearms laws, changes that respect the rights of gun 
owners.
  My bill reauthorizes the Community Prevention Grant Program, commonly 
known as Title V. It funds this critical juvenile crime prevention 
initiative at $250,000,000 per year for the next six years and mandates 
that no State would receive less than $200,000 in annual prevention 
grants. These funding levels would more than double juvenile crime 
prevention funding, enough resources for localities to implement a 
comprehensive delinquency prevention strategy and then fund smart 
prevention programs that work. In Delaware, Title V funds have been 
used to sponsor programs to reduce school violence, provide transition 
counseling to students returning to their local school from alternative 
school placement, reduce suspensions, expulsions, truancy, and teen 
pregnancy, and provide services to the children of incarcerated adult 
offenders. Prevention is the key to keeping our juvenile crime rate 
down, and we need to extend Title V to guarantee that these funds 
continue to flow to States and localities.

  The bill also reauthorizes the Formula Grant Program for the next six 
years at $200,000,000 per year. I have included provisions to expand 
the permissible uses of these funds so as to make clear that employment 
training, mental health treatment, and other effective programs that 
meet the needs of children and youth in the juvenile system could be 
funded. The bill reauthorizes gang prevention programs and emphasizes 
the disruption and prosecution of gangs. It extends the juvenile 
justice mentoring program, and adds a pilot program to encourage and 
develop mentoring initiatives that focus on entire families. The bill 
also includes funds for grants to States to upgrade and enhance their 
juvenile felony criminal record histories.
  My bill includes important provisions to continue the core 
protections for incarcerated youths that were included in the original 
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974. It continues 
the Act's function of protecting children from abuse and assault by 
adults in jails by prohibiting any contact between juveniles and adult 
inmates. The bill ensures that children are not detained in any jail or 
lockup for adults, except for very limited periods of time and under 
very limited circumstances. And it continues current law's requirement 
that States address the disproportionate number of minority children in 
confinement.
  The bill authorizes $500,000,000 per year over the next six years for 
the Juvenile Accountability Block Grant program. Funded for the past 
three fiscal years, this program has never been authorized. Its purpose 
is to strengthen State juvenile justice systems. States would receive 
funds as long as they implement or consider implementing graduated 
sanctions, though this condition can be met through a reporting 
requirement. The language I have included in my bill is drawn from H.R. 
863, a measure which is currently working its way through the other 
body. I am supportive of that measure, as it will provide much needed 
funds for States to hire additional prosecutors, juvenile court judges, 
probation officers, and court-appointed defenders and special 
advocates. In years past, my State has used these funds to establish

[[Page S7500]]

a Serious Juvenile Offender program through the Delaware Division of 
Youth Rehabilitative Services, which provides an immediate secure 
placement of violent youth offenders who have violated the terms of 
their probation. Delaware has also used these funds to expand 
diversionary programs such as Teen Court and Drug Court, thus reducing 
the time between arrest and disposition of juvenile offenders, and to 
add psycho-forensic evaluators in the Delaware Office of the Public 
Defender to identify and address mental illness as a cause for 
delinquent conduct. This is a good program and it needs to be 
authorized.
  My bill also reauthorizes the Violent Crime Reduction Trust Fund. The 
Trust Fund, created in the 1994 Crime Bill, has been the key to our 
successful fight against crime over the past several years. 
Unfortunately, it expired in 2000. The Violent Crime Reduction Trust 
Fund was the vehicle for providing billions of dollars to State and 
local governments to implement a variety of law enforcement and crime-
fighting initiative, from the COPS program to the Violence Against 
Women Act to youth violence programs. Without the Trust Fund, I fear we 
may not have the resources necessary to continue our struggle to keep 
our streets safe. I am pleased to include provisions in this bill that 
will extend the Fund through fiscal year 2007.
  Finally, the bill I am introducing today includes several common 
sense gun safety provisions. First, it incorporates Senator Reed's Gun 
Show Background Check Act. This language will ensure that criminals 
cannot purchase guns at gun shows, and I applaud Senator Reed for his 
leadership in this area. Second, I have included Senator Kohl's Child 
Safety Lock Act. This moderate provision would require handguns to be 
sold with government-certified trigger locks. Studies indicate trigger 
locks save lives; I was pleased to see the Administration's endorsement 
of this idea in its budget request for the upcoming fiscal year; and I 
thank Senator Kohl for including his bill in this larger measure today. 
Third, the bill would extend the Brady Law to dangerous juvenile 
offenders. This provision would make it unlawful for any person 
adjudicated a juvenile delinquent for serious drug offenses or violent 
felonies to possess firearms. This is an important step toward getting 
guns out of the hands of criminals, and its enactment will prevent 
violent juveniles from accessing weapons and thus make it difficult for 
them to commit gun crimes as adults.
  This is not a perfect bill, and I am not wedded to each and every 
line. I welcome comments from my colleagues, the juvenile justice 
community, and anyone interested in preventing and controlling juvenile 
crime. I am committed, however, to renewing our efforts to keep our 
children and our communities safe from crime and violence. I am 
committed to protecting our kids through meaningful prevention and 
intervention programs, to cracking down on drugs and the violence that 
accompanies them, and to ensuring that meaningful, appropriate and 
swift punishment is imposed on all juvenile offenders. I believe the 
Juvenile Crime Prevention and Control Act that I introduce today is an 
important step toward accomplishing these goals.
  I ask unanimous consent that the text of the bill be printed in the 
Record.
  There being no objection, the bill was ordered to be printed in the 
Record, as follows:

                                S. 1165

              TITLE II--PROTECTING CHILDREN FROM VIOLENCE

                 Subtitle A--Gun Show Background Checks

     SECTION 201. SHORT TITLE.

       This subtitle may be cited as the ``Gun Show Background 
     Check Act of 2001''.

     SEC. 202. FINDINGS.

       Congress finds that--
       (1) more than 4,400 traditional gun shows are held annually 
     across the United States, attracting thousands of attendees 
     per show and hundreds of Federal firearms licensees and 
     nonlicensed firearms sellers;
       (2) traditional gun shows, as well as flea markets and 
     other organized events, at which a large number of firearms 
     are offered for sale by Federal firearms licensees and 
     nonlicensed firearms sellers, form a significant part of the 
     national firearms market;
       (3) firearms and ammunition that are exhibited or offered 
     for sale or exchange at gun shows, flea markets, and other 
     organized events move easily in and substantially affect 
     interstate commerce;
       (4) in fact, even before a firearm is exhibited or offered 
     for sale or exchange at a gun

[[Page S7513]]

     show, flea market, or other organized event, the gun, its 
     component parts, ammunition, and the raw materials from which 
     it is manufactured have moved in interstate commerce;
       (5) gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events at 
     which firearms are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, 
     provide a convenient and centralized commercial location at 
     which firearms may be bought and sold anonymously, often 
     without background checks and without records that enable gun 
     tracing;
       (6) at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events 
     at which guns are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, 
     criminals and other prohibited persons obtain guns without 
     background checks and frequently use guns that cannot be 
     traced to later commit crimes;
       (7) many persons who buy and sell firearms at gun shows, 
     flea markets, and other organized events cross State lines to 
     attend these events and engage in the interstate 
     transportation of firearms obtained at these events;
       (8) gun violence is a pervasive, national problem that is 
     exacerbated by the availability of guns at gun shows, flea 
     markets, and other organized events;
       (9) firearms associated with gun shows have been 
     transferred illegally to residents of another State by 
     Federal firearms licensees and nonlicensed firearms sellers, 
     and have been involved in subsequent crimes including drug 
     offenses, crimes of violence, property crimes, and illegal 
     possession of firearms by felons and other prohibited 
     persons; and
       (10) Congress has the power, under the interstate commerce 
     clause and other provisions of the Constitution of the United 
     States, to ensure, by enactment of this subtitle, that 
     criminals and other prohibited persons do not obtain firearms 
     at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events.

  Mr. KOHL. Mr. President, I rise today with Senator Biden to introduce 
the Juvenile Crime Prevention and Control Act of 2001.
  This bill is an important step forward in the debate on juvenile 
justice. It is a comprehensive approach that recognizes prevention and 
enforcement are indispensable partners in combating juvenile crime. 
This bill addresses the issues most important to our communities, to 
the police, to the teachers, to the social workers, and most 
importantly, to the at-risk children whom we need to help. The 
legislation does this by giving crime prevention programs the priority, 
attention, and funding they deserve while recognizing that enforcement 
programs are indispensable to safer communities.
  Let me focus on one part of the legislation. The Juvenile Crime 
Prevention and Control Act increases the authorization of Title V, the 
Community Prevention Grant program, to $250 million. I worked closely 
with Senator Hank Brown to create the Title V program in 1992 because 
we listened to local law enforcement experts who told us that 
prevention works. Almost a decade later, they still say the same thing: 
a crime bill without adequate prevention is only a half-measure. That's 
just common sense.
  Congress has slowly realized the merits of crime prevention funding. 
Since 1992, funding for Title V has increased from $20 million to $95 
million. Unfortunately, almost two-thirds of that money has been 
consistently earmarked for purposes other than crime and delinquency 
prevention. The bill remedies this problem by ensuring that at least 75 
percent of all Title V Community Prevention Grants be spent on pure 
prevention and not set aside for other purposes.
  We now know that crime prevention programs like Title V work. Studies 
prove that crime prevention programs mean less crime. For example, a 
RAND Study found that crime prevention efforts were three times more 
cost-effective than increased punishment. A study of the Big Brothers/
Big Sisters' mentoring program showed that mentees were 46 percent less 
likely to use drugs, 27 percent less likely to use alcohol, 33 percent 
less likely to commit assault, and skipped 50 percent fewer days of 
school. A University of Wisconsin study of 64 after-school programs 
found that participating children became better students and developed 
improved conflict resolution skills; in addition, vandalism decreased 
at one third of the schools that participated in the programs.
  One of the reasons these programs work is that Title V is designed to 
let the people with the real expertise do what they know best. Title V 
is a flexible program of direct local grants. The flexibility permits 
each locality, through a local planning board of experts from the 
community, to determine how to best fight juvenile crime and 
delinquency. Title V trusts each community to address its unique 
problems.
  Law enforcement officials appreciate the importance of juvenile crime 
prevention programs and crave more. Last year, I surveyed every sheriff 
and chief of police in Wisconsin and found that 100 percent of 
Wisconsin's sheriffs and 100 percent of the police chiefs of 
Wisconsin's largest cities who responded to

[[Page S7516]]

the questionnaire believe more Federal money needs to be spent on crime 
prevention programs. Similarly, more than 80 percent of the police 
chiefs of small and mid-size cities in Wisconsin want more prevention 
funding.
  When asked how much of Federal juvenile crime funding should go to 
prevention, these same law enforcement officials answer that close to 
40 percent should be spent on prevention programs, far more than the 
current level of prevention funding. The Juvenile Crime Prevention and 
Control Act of 2001 listens to what local law enforcement experts have 
been telling us for years and addresses their needs.
  Of course, prevention is not the sole answer to juvenile crime. 
Indeed, we need a comprehensive crime-fighting strategy aimed at 
juvenile offenders and potential offenders, from violent predators to 
children at-risk of becoming delinquent. This legislation understands 
that. Tough law enforcement plays an essential role. Certain violent 
juveniles should be incarcerated, and hopefully rehabilitated, and this 
bill provides the States with sufficient funds to get them off the 
streets and safeguard our communities.
  Finally, no sensible juvenile crime fighting strategy is complete if 
it does not address the toxic combination of children and guns. This 
bill does that as well by mandating the sale of child safety locks with 
every handgun and insisting that those locks are designed well enough 
to work as intended.
  Each year, teenagers and children are involved in more than 10,000 
accidental shootings in which close to 800 people die. In addition, 
every year 1,300 children use firearms to commit suicide. Safety locks 
can be effective in deterring some of these incidents and in preventing 
others.
  The sad truth is that we are inviting disaster every time an unlocked 
gun is stored but is still easily accessible to children. In fact, guns 
are kept in 43 percent of American households with children. In 23 
percent of the gun households, the guns are kept loaded. And, in one 
out of every eight of those homes the guns are left unlocked.
  During the last decade, crime rates, including juvenile crime rates, 
have decreased. Since 1994, the juvenile arrest rate for violent crime 
has dropped 36 percent. Nonetheless, the public perceives that juvenile 
crime is a growing problem, especially school violence.
  We need to remain vigilant and think creatively about how to maintain 
this trend in falling juvenile crime. This measure provides a 
comprehensive approach. Prevention, enforcement, and keeping guns out 
of the hands of children are three essential elements to a common sense 
juvenile crime strategy.

      By Mr. BINGAMAN (for himself and Mr. DeWine):
  S. 1166. A bill to establish the Next Generation Lighting Initiative 
at the Department of Energy, and for other purposes; to the Committee 
on Energy and Natural Resources.
  Mr. BINGAMAN. Mr. President, I rise today with Senator DeWine to 
introduce a bill authorizing the Secretary of Energy to lead the United 
States into the next generation of lighting technology. If this bill is 
enacted, I believe it will allow us not only to maintain a world 
leadership role that Thomas Edison started, but promote efficiency 
advances in a market which consumes 19 percent of our electrical energy 
supply.
  Lighting is a 40-billion-dollar global industry. The United States 
occupies roughly one-third of that market. It's an extremely 
competitive industry whose technology has been well established over 
the course of 80 years. Today's lighting market primarily consists of 
two technologies. The first technology is incandescent lighting, it's 
the one Thomas Edison invented over 100 years ago. Incandescent 
lighting relies on running a current through a wire to heat it up and 
illuminate your surroundings. Only 5 percent of the electricity in a 
conventional bulb is converted into visible light. The second type of 
lighting is fluorescent lights, which use a combination of chemical 
vapors, mainly mercury, to discharge light when current is passed 
through it. Flourescent lights are six times more efficient than a 
light bulb.
  As I have mentioned, today's lighting uses up about 19 percent of our 
electricity supply. In 1998, lighting electricity cost about 47 billion 
dollars which accounted for about 100 million tons of carbon equivalent 
from fossil energy plants.
  Today, this paradigm is changing, because some scientists recently 
made a leap ahead in lighting research. Technology leaps displace, very 
quickly, traditional markets. We know the stories all too well, the 
horse courier, the telegraph, the telephone and finally the Internet.
  That is why Senator DeWine and I are proposing this legislation, 
because some advances have been made in the areas of solid state 
lighting that require a national investment that no one lighting 
industry can match. This emerging technology has the capability to 
disrupt our existing lighting markets. So quickly in fact, that other 
countries have formed consortia between their governments, industries, 
laboratories and universities. Solid state lighting is being taken very 
seriously around the world.
  Let me describe solid state lighting. The best examples are red light 
emitting diodes, or ``LED's'', found in digital clocks. LED's produce 
only one color but they do not burn up a wire like a bulb and are seven 
times more efficient.
  Until recently LED's were limited to yellow or red. That all changed 
in 1995. In 1995, some Japanese researchers developed a blue LED. Soon 
other bright colors started to emerge, such as green. That is when 
things started to change. Because, white light is a combination of red, 
blue, the recent Japanese breakthrough, and green or yellow. The recent 
Japanese breakthrough of that simple blue LED has now made it possible 
to produce white light from LED's ten times more efficient than a light 
bulb.
  If it is successful, white light LED's will revolutionize lighting 
technology and will disrupt the existing industries. It's imperative 
that we move quickly on these advances. We need a consortia between our 
government, industry, research labs and academia to develop the 
necessary pre-competitive research to maintain our leadership role in 
this field.

  I would like to mention one other technology that will change 
lighting. That technology is found in your cell phone and on your 
computer screen. It's called conductive polymers. Three Nobel Prizes 
were just awarded for this technology. Conductive polymers offer the 
possibility of covering large surface areas and replacing fluorescent 
lamps. These materials will not only provide white light, but like your 
computer screen, display text or programmed color pictures. These 
technologies can be Internet controlled to adjust building lighting 
across the country.
  Given these advances, I would like to describe the Next Generation 
Lighting Initiative Act. If enacted, it will move our country to 
capture these revolutionary mergers between lighting and information. 
It will supply the necessary pre-competitive R&D which no one industry 
alone can provide, and, which we as holders of the public trust of 
basic research owe a duty to further. It will keep the United States in 
a leadership role of commercial lighting while promoting energy 
efficiency that can either be ten times that of incandescent lights or 
twice that of fluorescent lights. We need to enact this legislation 
now.
  The Next Generation Lighting Initiative authorizes the Department of 
Energy to grant up to $480 million over ten years to a consortium of 
the United States lighting industry and research institutions. The 
goals of the Act are to have a 25 percent penetration of solid state 
lighting into the commercial markets by the year 2012. The Next 
Generation's consortium, will perform the basic and manufacturing 
research. The lighting industry will take this R&D and develop the 
necessary technologies to make it commercially viable.
  This is precompetitive research. It is research that no one industry 
by itself can achieve and which we have a duty to promote together with 
industry. It has implications for our country's energy policy far 
broader than economic competitiveness. It is the reduction in energy 
consumption that makes it a national initiative. Once the pre-
competitive research is transitioned to industry then it should be 
terminated, we think that will take about 10 years.
  If this initiative is successful, then by 2025, it can reduce our 
energy consumption by roughly 17 billion watts of

[[Page S7517]]

power or the need for 17 large electricity generating plants. That's as 
much as 17 million homes consume in a single day. That's more homes 
than in California, Oregon, and Washington combined.
  So let me conclude that the Next Generation Lighting Initiative will 
carry the U.S. lighting industry into the twenty first century. It 
capitalizes on technologies that have emerged only five years ago but 
have the potential to quickly displace our lighting industry. This 
Initiative will reduce our nation's energy consumption and greenhouse 
gas emission. The research necessary to advance this technology 
requires a national investment that must be in partnership with 
industry.
  I encourage my colleagues to review this bill, offer their comments, 
and, join Senator DeWine and me in its bipartisan support. I ask that 
the text of the bill be printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the bill was ordered to be printed in the

      By Mrs. FEINSTEIN (for herself and Mr. Hagel):
  S. 1167. A bill to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to 
permit the substitution of an alternative close family sponsor in the 
case of the death of the person petitioning for an alien's admission to 
the United States; to the Committee on the Judiciary.
  Mrs. FEINSTEIN. Mr. President, I am pleased to introduce on behalf of 
myself and Mr. Hagel, the Family Sponsor Immigration Act of 2001. This 
legislation would address the situation of those whose U.S. sponsor 
dies while they have the chance to adjust status or receive an 
immigrant visa.
  Under current law, a family member who petitions for a relative to 
receive an immigrant visa must sign a legally binding affidavit of 
support promising to provide for the support of the immigrant. This is 
the last step before a green card is issued. If the family sponsor dies 
while the green card application is pending, the applicant is forced to 
find a new sponsor and restart the application process, usually a 7- to 
8-year process, or face deportation.
  The legislation I have introduced today would correct this anomaly in 
the law by permitting another family member to stand in for the 
deceased sponsor and sign the affidavit. Without this legislation, 
another relative who qualifies as a family sponsor would have to file a 
new immigrant visa petition on behalf of the relative and the relative 
would have to go to the end of the line if the visa category is 
numerically limited. Thus, the beneficiary would lose his priority date 
for a visa based on the filing of the first petition, and in some 
cases, face deportation.
  With the passage of this legislation, even though there may be a 
different sponsor, the beneficiary would not lose his or her priority 
date to be admitted as a permanent resident of the United States. Nor 
will the beneficiary be subject to deportation even though they meet 
all the requirements for an immigrant visa.
  A classic example of this situation was presented to my office just 
recently. Earlier this year I introduced a private bill on behalf of 
Zhenfu Ge, a 73-year-old Chinese grandmother whose daughter died before 
the Immigration and Naturalization Service, INS, was able to complete 
the final stage of application process: her interview. As a result, her 
immigration application is no longer valid and she is now subject to 
deportation. The private bill I introduced would allow her to adjust 
her status, given that she has met all the requirements for a visa.
  In previous years, I have introduced other private bills which 
eventually became law. One bill was on behalf of Suchada Kwong, whose 
husband was killed in a car accident just weeks before her final 
interview with the INS. In 1997, I introduced a private bill on behalf 
of Jasmin Salehi, a Korean immigrant who became ineligible for 
permanent residency after her husband was murdered at a Denny's in 
Reseda, California, where he worked as a manager.
  In all of these cases, a family's grief was compounded by the 
prospect of the deportation of a family member, who had met all the 
requirements for a green card. This legislation is an efficient way to 
alleviate the need for private legislation under these circumstances by 
making the law more just for those who have chosen to become immigrants 
in our country through the legal process.
  We introduce the ``Family Immigration Act of 2001,'' in the hopes 
that it will go further to alleviate some of hardships families face 
when confronted by the untimely death of a sponsor. Similar legislation 
has gained bipartisan support in the House of Representatives. I look 
forward to working with my colleagues to move it quickly through the 
Senate.
  I ask unanimous consent that the text of the bill be printed in the 
Record.
  There being no objection, the bill was ordered to be printed in the 
Record, as follows:

                                S. 1167

       Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of 
     the United States of America in Congress assembled,

     SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

       This Act may be cited as the ``Family Sponsor Immigration 
     Act of 2001''.

     SEC. 2. SUBSTITUTION OF ALTERNATIVE SPONSOR IF ORIGINAL 
                   SPONSOR HAS DIED.

       (a) Permitting Substitution of Alternative Close Family 
     Sponsor in Case of Death of Petitioner.--
       (1) Recognition of alternative sponsor.--Section 213A(f)(5) 
     of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1183a(f)(5)) 
     is amended to read as follows:
       ``(5) Non-petitioning cases.--Such term also includes an 
     individual who does not meet the requirement of paragraph 
     (1)(D) but who--
       ``(A) accepts joint and several liability with a 
     petitioning sponsor under paragraph (2) or relative of an 
     employment-based immigrant under paragraph (4) and who 
     demonstrates (as provided under paragraph (6)) the means to 
     maintain an annual income equal to at least 125 percent of 
     the Federal poverty line; or
       ``(B) is a spouse, parent, mother-in-law, father-in-law, 
     sibling, child (if at least 18 years of age), son, daughter, 
     son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, 
     grandparent, or grandchild of a sponsored alien or a legal 
     guardian of a sponsored alien, meets the requirements of 
     paragraph (1) (other than subparagraph (D)), and executes an 
     affidavit of support with respect to such alien in a case in 
     which--
       ``(i) the individual petitioning under section 204 for the 
     classification of such alien died after the approval of such 
     petition; and
       ``(ii) the Attorney General has determined for humanitarian 
     reasons that revocation of such petition under section 205 
     would be inappropriate.''.
       (2) Conforming amendment permitting substitution.--Section 
     212(a)(4)(C)(ii) of such Act (8 U.S.C. 1182(a)(4)(C)(ii)) is 
     amended by striking ``(including any additional sponsor 
     required under section 213A(f))'' and inserting ``(and any 
     additional sponsor required under section 213A(f) or any 
     alternative sponsor permitted under paragraph (5)(B) of such 
     section)''.
       (3) Additional conforming amendments.--Section 213A(f) of 
     such Act (8 U.S.C. 1183a(f)) is amended, in each of 
     paragraphs (2) and (4)(B)(ii), by striking ``(5).'' and 
     inserting ``(5)(A).''.
       (b) Effective Date.--The amendments made by subsection (a) 
     shall apply with respect to deaths occurring before, on, or 
     after the date of the enactment of this Act, except that, in 
     the case of a death occurring before such date, such 
     amendments shall apply only if--
       (1) the sponsored alien--
       (A) requests the Attorney General to reinstate the 
     classification petition that was filed with respect to the 
     alien by the deceased and approved under section 204 of the 
     Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1154) before such 
     death; and
       (B) demonstrates that he or she is able to satisfy the 
     requirement of section 212(a)(4)(C)(ii) of such Act (8 U.S.C. 
     1182(a)(4)(C)(ii)) by reason of such amendments; and
       (2) the Attorney General reinstates such petition after 
     making the determination described in section 
     213A(f)(5)(B)(ii) of such Act (as amended by such 
     subsection).
