SEC. 130. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF ENGINEERING IN
EARLY STAGES OF SHIPBUILDING.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) placing a priority on engineering dollars in the early
stages of shipbuilding programs is a vital component of
keeping cost down; and
(2) therefore, the Secretary of the Navy should take
appropriate steps to prioritize early engineering in large
ship construction including amphibious class ships beginning
with the LHA 8.
SEC. 131. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON MARINE CORPS AMPHIBIOUS LIFT
AND PRESENCE REQUIREMENTS.
(a) In General.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the United States Marine Corps is a combat force which
leverages maneuver from the sea as a force multiplier
allowing for a variety of operational tasks ranging from
major combat operations to humanitarian assistance;
(2) the United States Marine Corps is unique in that, while
embarked upon Naval vessels, they bring all the logistic
support necessary for the full range of military operations,
operating ``from the sea'' they require no third party host
nation permission to conduct military operations;
(3) the Department of the Navy has a requirement for 38
amphibious assault ships to meet this full range of military
operations;
(4) for budgetary reasons only that requirement of 38
vessels was reduced to 33 vessels, which adds military risk
to future operations;
(5) the Department of the Navy has been unable to meet even
the minimal requirement of 33 operationally available vessels
and has submitted a shipbuilding and ship retirement plan to
the Congress which will reduce the force to 28 vessels; and
(6) experience has shown that early engineering and design
of naval vessels has significantly reduced the acquisition
costs and life-cycle costs of those vessels.
(b) Next Generation of Amphibious Ships.--In light of
subsection (a), it is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Navy should consider prioritization of investment
in and procurement of the next generation of amphibious
assault ships;
(2) the next generation amphibious assault ships should
maintain survivability protection level II in accordance with
current Navy ship requirements;
(3) commonality in hull form design could be a desirable
element to reduce acquisition and life cycle cost; and
(4) maintaining a robust amphibious shipbuilding industrial
base is vital for future national security.

SEC. 723. ESTABLISHMENT OF TRICARE WORKING GROUP.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) children of members of the Armed Forces deserve health-
care practices and policies that--
(A) are designed to meet their pediatric-specific needs;
(B) are developed and determined proactively and
comprehensively; and
(C) ensure and maintain their access to pediatric-specific
treatments, providers, and facilities.
(2) children's health-care needs and standards of care are
different and distinct from those of adults, therefore the
TRICARE program should undertake a proactive, comprehensive
approach to review and analyze its policies and practices to
meet the needs of children to ensure that children and their
families receive appropriate care in proper settings and
avoid unnecessary challenges in seeking or obtaining proper
health care;
(3) a proactive and comprehensive review is necessary
because the reimbursement structure of the TRICARE program is
patterned upon Medicare and the resulting policies and
practices of the TRICARE program do not always properly
reflect appropriate standards for pediatric care;
(4) one distinct aspect of children's health care is the
need for specialty care and services for children with
special-health-care needs and chronic-health conditions;
(5) the requirement for specialized health care and
developmental support is an ongoing and serious matter of
day-to-day life for families with children with special or
chronic-health-care needs;
(6) the Department of Defense and the TRICARE program,
recognizing the special needs of certain children, have
instituted special-needs programs, including the ECHO
program, but there are collateral needs that are not being
met, generally because the services are provided in the local
community rather than by the Department of Defense, who may
not always have the best tools or knowledge to access these
State and local resources;
(7) despite wholehearted efforts by the Department of
Defense, a gap exists between linking military families with
children with special-health-care needs and chronic
conditions with the resources and services available from
local or regional highly specialized providers and the
communities and States in which they reside;
(8) the gap is especially exacerbated by the mobility of
military families, who often move from State to State,
because special-needs health care, educational, and social
services are very specific to each local community and State
and such services often have lengthy waiting lists; and
(9) the Department of Defense will be better able to assist
military families with children
[[Page H2880]]
with special-health-care needs fill the gap by collaborating
with special-health-care needs providers and those
knowledgeable about the opportunities for such children that
are provided by States and local communities.
(b) Establishment.--
(1) In general.--The Secretary of Defense shall establish a
working group to carry out a review of the TRICARE program
with respect to--
(A) pediatric health care needs under paragraph (2); and
(B) pediatric special and chronic health care needs under
paragraph (3).
(2) Pediatric health care needs.--
(A) Duties.--The working group shall--
(i) comprehensively review the policy and practices of the
TRICARE program with respect to providing pediatric health
care;
(ii) recommend changes to such policies and practices to
ensure that--
(I) children receive appropriate care in an appropriate
manner, at the appropriate time, and in an appropriate
setting; and
(II) access to care and treatment provided by pediatric
providers and children's hospitals remains available for
families with children; and
(iii) develop a plan to implement such changes.
(B) Review.--In carrying out the duties under subparagraph
(A), the working group shall--
(i) identify improvements in policies, practices, and
administration of the TRICARE program with respect to
pediatric-specific health care and pediatric-specific
healthcare settings;
(ii) analyze the direct and indirect effects of the
reimbursement policies and practices of the TRICARE program
with respect to pediatric care and care provided in pediatric
settings;
(iii) consider case management programs with respect to
pediatric complex and chronic care, including whether
pediatric specific programs are necessary;
(iv) develop a plan to ensure that the TRICARE program
addresses pediatric-specific health care needs on an on-going
basis beyond the life of the working group;
(v) consider how the TRICARE program can work with the
pediatric provider community to ensure access, promote
communication and collaboration, and optimize experiences of
military families seeking and receiving health care services
for children; and
(vi) review matters that further the mission of the working
group.
(3) Pediatric special and chronic health care needs.--
(A) Duties.--The working group shall--
(i) review the methods in which families in the TRICARE
program who have children with special-health-care needs
access community resources and health-care resources;
(ii) review how having access to, and a better
understanding of, community resources may improve access to
health care and support services;
(iii) recommend methods to accomplish improved access by
such children and families to community resources and health-
care resources, including through collaboration with
children's hospitals and other providers of pediatric
specialty care, local agencies, local communities, and
States;
(iv) consider approaches and make recommendations for the
improved integration of individualized or compartmentalized
medical and family support resources for military families;
(v) work closely with the Office of Community Support for
Military Families with Special Needs of the Department of
Defense and other relevant offices to avoid redundancies and
target shared areas of concern for children with special or
chronic-health-care needs; and
(vi) review any relevant information learned and findings
made by the working group under this paragraph that may be
considered or adopted in a consistent manner with respect to
improving access, resources, and services for adults with
special needs.
(B) Review.--In carrying out the duties under subparagraph
(A), the working group shall--
(i) discuss improvements to special needs health care
policies and practices;
(ii) determine how to support and protect families of
members of the National Guard or Reserve Components as the
members transition into and out of the relevant Exceptional
Family Member Program or the ECHO program;
(iii) analyze case management services to improve
consistency, communication, knowledge, and understanding of
resources and community contacts;
(iv) identify areas in which a State may offer services
that are not covered by the TRICARE program or the ECHO
program and how to coordinate such services;
(v) identify steps that States and communities can take to
improve support for military families of children with
special health care needs;
(vi) consider how the TRICARE program and other programs of
the Department of Defense can work with specialty pediatric
providers and resource communities to ensure access, promote
communication and collaboration, and optimize experiences of
military families seeking and receiving health care services
for their children with special or chronic health care needs;
(vii) consider special and chronic health care in a
comprehensive manner without focus on one or more conditions
or diagnoses to the exclusion of others;
(viii) focus on ways to create innovative partnerships,
linkages, and access to information and resources for
military families across the spectrum of the special-needs
community and between the medical community and the family
support community; and
(ix) review matters that further the mission of the working
group.

Authorization for Use of Military Force (Public Law 107 40;

necessary and appropriate force'' against those responsible
for the attacks of September 11, 2001, and those who harbored
them ``in order to prevent any future acts of international
terrorism against the United States''.

that the AUMF authorized the President to detain individuals,
including a United States citizen captured in Afghanistan and
later detained in the United States, legitimately determined
to be ``engaged in armed conflict against the United States''
until the end of hostilities, noting that ``[W]e understand
Congress' grant of authority for the use of `necessary and
appropriate force' to include the authority to detain for the
duration of the relevant conflict, and our understanding is
based on longstanding law-of-war principles''.

American law that a United States citizen may not be detained
in the United States pursuant to the AUMF without due process
of law, stating the following:
(A) ``Striking the proper constitutional balance here is of
great importance to the Nation during this period of ongoing
combat. But it is equally vital that our calculus not give
short shrift to the values that this country holds dear or to
the privilege that is American citizenship.''.
(B) ``It is during our most challenging and uncertain
moments that our Nation's commitment to due process is most
severely tested; and it is in those times that we must
preserve our commitment at home to the principles for which
we fight abroad.''.
(C) ``[A] state of war is not a blank check for the
President when it comes to the rights of the Nation's
citizens.''.
(D) ``[A]bsent suspension, the writ of habeas corpus
remains available to every individual detained within the
United States.''.
(E) ``All agree suspension of the writ has not occurred
here.''.
(F) ``[A]n enemy combatant must receive notice of the
factual basis for his classification, and a fair opportunity
to rebut the Government's factual assertions before a neutral
decisionmaker.''.
(G) ``Whatever power the United States Constitution
envisions for the Executive in its exchanges with other
nations or with enemy organizations in times of conflict, it
most assuredly envisions a role for all three branches when
individual liberties are at stake.''.
(H) ``[U]nless Congress acts to suspend it, the Great Writ
of habeas corpus allows the Judicial Branch to play a
necessary role in maintaining this delicate balance of
governance, serving as an important judicial check on the
Executive's discretion in the realm of detentions.''.
(I) ``We reaffirm today the fundamental nature of a
citizen's right to be free from involuntary confinement by
his own government without due process of law, and we weigh
the opposing governmental interests against the curtailment
of liberty that such confinement entails.''.
(4) In 2008, in Boumediene v. Bush, the Supreme Court also
extended the constitutional right to habeas corpus to the
foreign detainees held pursuant to the AUMF at the United
States Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
(5) Chapter 47A of title 10, United States Code, as
originally enacted by the Military Commissions Act of 2006
(Public Law 109 366), only allows for prosecution of foreign
terrorists by military commission.
(6) In 2011, with the enactment of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112 81),
Congress and the President affirmed the authority of the
Armed Forces of the United States to detain pursuant to the
AUMF a person who planned, authorized, committed, or aided
the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or
harbored those responsible for those attacks, or a person who
was a part of or substantially supported al-Qaeda, the
Taliban, or associated forces that are engaged in hostilities
against the United States or its coalition partners,
including any person who has committed a belligerent act or
has directly supported such hostilities in aid of such enemy
forces.
(7) The interpretation of the detention authority provided
by the AUMF under the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2012 is the same as the interpretation used by
the Obama administration in its legal filings in Federal
court and is nearly identical to the interpretation used by
the Bush administration. This interpretation has also been
upheld by the United States Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia Circuit.
(8) Such Act also requires the Secretary of Defense to
regularly brief Congress regarding the application of the
detention authority provided by the AUMF.
(9) Section 1021 of such Act states that ``Nothing in this
section shall be construed to affect existing law or
authorities relating to the detention of United States
citizens, lawful resident aliens of the United States, or any
other persons who are captured or arrested in the United
States.''.
SEC. 1032. FINDINGS REGARDING HABEAS CORPUS RIGHTS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Article 1, section 9 of the Constitution states ``The
Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be
suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the
public Safety may require it.''.
(2) Regarding the Great Writ, the Supreme Court has noted
``The writ of habeas corpus is the fundamental instrument for
safeguarding individual freedom against arbitrary and lawless
state action.''.
SEC. 1033. HABEAS CORPUS RIGHTS.
Nothing in the Authorization for Use of Military Force
(Public Law 107 40; 50 U.S.C. 1541 note) or the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law
112 81) shall be construed to deny the availability of the
writ of habeas corpus in a court ordained or established by
or under Article III of the Constitution for any person who
is detained in the United States pursuant to the
Authorization for Use of Military Force (Public Law 107 40;
50 U.S.C. 1541 note).

MODERNIZATION.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) In 2008, then Secretary of Defense Robert Gates warned

maintain a credible deterrent and reduce the number of
weapons in our stockpile without either resorting to testing
our stockpile or pursuing a modernization program.''.
(2) Secretary Gates also warned in September 2009 that
modernization is a prerequisite to nuclear force reductions,
stating that modernizing the nuclear capability of the United
States is an ``enabler of arms control and our ability to
reduce the size of our nuclear stockpile. When we have more
confidence in the long-term viability of our weapons systems,
then our ability to reduce the number of weapons we must keep
in the stockpile is enhanced.''.
(3) President Obama's 2010 Nuclear Posture Review stated
that--
(A) ``In order to sustain a safe, secure, and effective
U.S. nuclear stockpile as long as nuclear weapons exist, the
United States must possess a modern physical infrastructure--
comprised of the national security laboratories and a complex
of supporting facilities.''; and
(B) ``[I]mplementation of the Stockpile Stewardship Program
and the nuclear infrastructure investments recommended in the
NPR will allow the United States to shift away from retaining
large numbers of non-deployed warheads as a hedge against
technical or geopolitical surprise, allowing major reductions
in the nuclear stockpile. These investments are essential to
facilitating reductions while sustaining deterrence under New
START and beyond.''.
(4) Section 1251 of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111 84; 123 Stat. 2549)
required the President to submit a report to Congress on the
plan for the nuclear weapons stockpile, nuclear weapons
complex, and delivery platforms at the time a follow-on
treaty to the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty was submitted
by the President to the Senate. The President submitted such
report in May 2010 and submitted updates in November 2010 and
February 2011.
(5) Such section 1251 also contained a sense of Congress
that ``the enhanced safety, security, and reliability of the
nuclear weapons stockpile, modernization of the nuclear
weapons complex, and maintenance of nuclear delivery systems
are key to enabling further reductions in the nuclear forces
of the United States.''.
(6) Forty-one Senators wrote to President Obama on December
15, 2009, stating, ``we don't believe further reductions can
be in the national security interest of the U.S. in the
absence of a significant program to modernize our nuclear
deterrent.''.
(7) Former Secretary of Defense and Secretary of Energy
James Schlesinger stated, while testifying before the
Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate in April 2010,
``I believe that it is immensely important for the Senate to
ensure, what the Administration has stated as its intent,
i.e., that there be a robust plan with a continuation of its
support over the full 10 years, before it proceeds to ratify
this START follow-on treaty.''.
(8) Former Secretary of State James Baker stated in
testimony before the Committee on Foreign Relations of the
Senate in May 2010 that ``because our security is based upon
the safety and reliability of our nuclear weapons, it is
important that our Government budget enough money to
guarantee that those weapons can carry out their mission.''.
(9) Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger also stated
in May 2010 while testifying before the Committee on Foreign
Relations of the Senate that ``as part of a number of
recommendations, my colleagues, Bill Perry, George Shultz,
Sam Nunn, and I have called for significant investments in a
repaired and modernized nuclear weapons infrastructure and
added resources for the three national laboratories.''.
(10) Then Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, while
testifying before the Committee on Armed Services of the
Senate in June 2010, stated, ``I see this treaty as a vehicle
to finally be able to get what we need in the way of
modernization that we have been unable to get otherwise. . .
. We are essentially the only nuclear power in the world that
is not carrying out these kinds of modernization programs.''.
(11) Secretary Gates further stated that ``I've been up
here for the last four springs trying to get money for this
and this is the first time I think I've got a fair shot of
actually getting money for our nuclear arsenal.''.
(12) The Directors of the national nuclear weapons
laboratories wrote to the chairman and ranking member of the
Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate in December 2010
that ``We are very pleased by the update to the Section 1251
Report, as it would enable the laboratories to execute our
requirements for ensuring a safe, secure, reliable and
effective stockpile under the Stockpile Stewardship and
Management Plan. In particular, we are pleased because it
clearly responds to many of the concerns that we and others
have voiced in the past about potential future-year funding
shortfalls, and it substantially reduces risks to the overall
program. In summary, we believe that the proposed budgets
provide adequate support to sustain the safety, security,
reliability and effectiveness of America's nuclear deterrent
within the limit of 1,550 deployed strategic warheads
established by the New START Treaty with adequate confidence
and acceptable risk.''.
(13) President Obama pledged, in a December 2010 letter to
several Senators, ``I recognize that nuclear modernization
requires investment for the long-term. . . . That is my
commitment to the Congress--that my Administration will
pursue these programs and capabilities for as long as I am
President.''.
(14) Secretary Gates added in May 2011 that, ``this
modernization program was very carefully worked out between
ourselves and the Department of Energy; and, frankly, where
we came out on that played a fairly significant role in the
willingness of the Senate to ratify the New START
agreement.''.
(15) The Administrator for Nuclear Security, Thomas
D'Agostino, testified before Congress in November 2011 that,
``it is critical to accept the linkage between modernizing
our current stockpile in order to achieve the policy
objective of decreasing the number of weapons we have in our
stockpile, while still ensuring that the deterrent is safe,
secure, and effective.''.
(b) New START Treaty Defined.--In this subtitle, the term
``New START Treaty'' means the Treaty between the United
States of America and the Russian Federation on Measures for
the Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive
Arms, signed on April 8, 2010, and entered into force on
February 5, 2011.
SEC. 1053. LIMITATION AND REPORT IN THE EVENT OF INSUFFICIENT
FUNDING FOR MODERNIZATION OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS
STOCKPILE.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) consistent with Condition 9 of the Resolution of Advice
and Consent to Ratification of the New START Treaty of the
Senate, agreed to on December 22, 2011, the United States is
committed to ensuring the safety, security, reliability, and
credibility of its nuclear forces; and
(2) the United States is committed to--
(A) proceeding with a robust stockpile stewardship program
and maintaining and modernizing nuclear weapons production
capabilities and capacities of the United States to ensure
the safety, security, reliability, and credibility of the
nuclear arsenal of the United States at the New START Treaty
levels and meeting requirements for hedging against possible
international developments or technical problems;
(B) reinvigorating and sustaining the nuclear security
laboratories of the United States and preserving the core
nuclear weapons competencies therein; and
(C) providing the resources needed to achieve these
objectives, at a minimum at the levels set forth in the
President's 10-year plan provided to Congress in November
2010 pursuant to section 1251 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111 84;
123 Stat. 2549).
(b) Insufficient Funding Report and Limitation.--
(1) In general.--Paragraph (2) of section 1045(a) of the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (50
U.S.C. 2523b) is amended to read as follows:
``(2) Insufficient funding.--
``(A) Report.--During each year in which the New START
Treaty is in force, if the President determines that an
appropriations Act is enacted that fails to meet the resource
levels set forth in the November 2010 update to the plan
referred to in section 1251 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111 84;
123 Stat. 2549) or if at any time determines that more
resources are required to carry out such plan than were
estimated, the President shall submit to the appropriate
congressional committees, within 60 days of making such a
determination, a report detailing--
``(i) a plan to remedy the resource shortfall;
``(ii) if more resources are required to carry out the plan
than were estimated--
``(I) the proposed level of funding required; and
``(II) an identification of the stockpile work, campaign,
facility, site, asset, program, operation, activity,
construction, or project for which additional funds are
required;
``(iii) any effects caused by the shortfall on the safety,
security, reliability, or credibility of the nuclear forces
of the United States; and
``(iv) whether and why, in light of the shortfall,
remaining a party to the New START Treaty is in the national
interest of the United States.
``(B) Limitation.--If the President submits a report under
subparagraph (A), none of the funds made available for fiscal
year 2012 or any fiscal year thereafter for the Department of
Defense or the National Nuclear Security Administration may
be used to reduce the number of deployed nuclear warheads
until--
[[Page H2892]]
``(i) after the date on which such report is submitted, the
President certifies in writing to the appropriate
congressional committees that the resource shortfall
identified in such report has been addressed; and
``(ii) a period of 120 days has elapsed following the date
on which such certification is made.
``(C) Exception.--The limitation in subparagraph (B) shall
not apply to--
``(i) reductions made to ensure the safety, security,
reliability, and credibility of the nuclear weapons stockpile
and strategic delivery systems, including activities related
to surveillance, assessment, certification, testing, and
maintenance of nuclear warheads and strategic delivery
systems; or
``(ii) nuclear warheads that are retired or awaiting
dismantlement on the date of the report under subparagraph
(A).
``(D) Definitions.--In this paragraph:
``(i) The term `appropriate congressional committees'
means--
``(I) the congressional defense committees; and
``(II) the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate and
the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of
Representatives.
``(ii) The term `New START Treaty' means the Treaty between
the United States of America and the Russian Federation on
Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of
Strategic Offensive Arms, signed on April 8, 2010, and
entered into force on February 5, 2011.''.
(2) Effective date.--The amendment made by paragraph (1)
shall take effect on October 1, 2012.
SEC. 1054. PROGRESS OF MODERNIZATION.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) In 2008, then Secretary of Defense Robert Gates warned
that ``to be blunt, there is absolutely no way we can
maintain a credible deterrent and reduce the number of
weapons in our stockpile without either resorting to testing
our stockpile or pursuing a modernization program.''.
(2) The 2010 Nuclear Posture Review stated that ``the
President has directed a review of post-New START arms
control objectives, to consider future reductions in nuclear
weapons. Several factors will influence the magnitude and
pace of future reductions in U.S. nuclear forces below New
START levels'', including--
(A) ``First, any future nuclear reductions must continue to
strengthen deterrence of potential regional adversaries,
strategic stability vis-a-vis Russia and China, and assurance
of our allies and partners. This will require an updated
assessment of deterrence requirements; further improvements
in U.S., allied, and partner non-nuclear capabilities;
focused reductions in strategic and non-strategic weapons;
and close consultations with allies and partners. The United
States will continue to ensure that, in the calculations of
any potential opponent, the perceived gains of attacking the
United States or its allies and partners would be far
outweighed by the unacceptable costs of the response.'';
(B) ``Second, implementation of the Stockpile Stewardship
Program and the nuclear infrastructure investments
recommended in the NPR will allow the United States to shift
away from retaining large numbers of non-deployed warheads as
a hedge against technical or geopolitical surprise, allowing
major reductions in the nuclear stockpile. These investments
are essential to facilitating reductions while sustaining
deterrence under New START and beyond.''; and
(C) ``Third, Russia's nuclear force will remain a
significant factor in determining how much and how fast we
are prepared to reduce U.S. forces. Because of our improved
relations, the need for strict numerical parity between the
two countries is no longer as compelling as it was during the
Cold War. But large disparities in nuclear capabilities could
raise concerns on both sides and among U.S. allies and
partners, and may not be conducive to maintaining a stable,
long-term strategic relationship, especially as nuclear
forces are significantly reduced. Therefore, we will place
importance on Russia joining us as we move to lower
levels.''.
(3) The 2010 Nuclear Posture Review also stated that the
Administration would ``conduct follow-on analysis to set
goals for future nuclear reductions below the levels expected
in New START, while strengthening deterrence of potential
regional adversaries, strategic stability vis-a-vis Russia
and China, and assurance of our allies and partners.''.
(4) The Secretary of Defense has warned in testimony before
the Committee on Armed Services of the House of
Representatives regarding the sequestration mechanism under
section 251A of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit
Control Act of 1985 that ``if this sequester goes into effect
and it doubles the number of cuts, then it'll truly devastate
our national defense, because it will then require that we
have to go at our force structure. We will have to hollow it
out . . . [i]t will badly damage our capabilities for the
future. . . . And if you have a smaller force, you're not
going to be able to be out there responding in as many areas
as we do now.''.
(5) The 2010 Nuclear Posture Review also stated that ``by
modernizing our aging nuclear facilities and investing in
human capital, we can substantially reduce the number of
nuclear weapons we retain as a hedge.''.
(6) The President requested the promised $7,600,000,000 for
weapons activities of the National Nuclear Security
Administration in fiscal year 2012 but signed an
appropriations Act for fiscal year 2012 that provided only
$7,233,997,000, a substantial reduction to only the second
year of the ten-year plan under section 1251 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law
111 84; 123 Stat. 2549).
(7) The President requested only $7,577,341,000 for weapons
activities of the National Nuclear Security Administration in
fiscal year 2013 while the President's section 1251 plan
promised $7,900,000,000.
(8) The President's section 1251 plan further promised to
request $8,400,000,000 in fiscal year 2014, $8,700,000,000 in
fiscal year 2015, $8,900,000,000 in fiscal year 2016, at
least $8,900,000,000 in fiscal year 2017, at least
$9,200,000,000 in fiscal year 2018, at least $9,400,000,000
in fiscal year 2019, at least $9,400,000,000 in fiscal year
2020, and at least $9,500,000,000 in fiscal year 2021.
(9) While the administration has not yet shared with
Congress the terms of reference of the so-called Nuclear
Posture Review Implementation Study, or the Department of
Defense's instructions for that review, the only publicly
available statements by the administration, including
language from the Nuclear Posture Review, suggest the review
was specifically instructed by the President and his senior
political appointees to only consider reductions to the
nuclear forces of the United States.
(10) When asked at a hearing if the New START Treaty
allowed the United States ``to maintain a nuclear arsenal
that is more than is needed to guarantee an adequate
deterrent,'' then Commander of the United States Strategic
Command, General Kevin P. Chilton said, ``I do not agree that
it is more than is needed. I think the arsenal that we have
is exactly what is needed today to provide the deterrent.''.
(b) Nuclear Employment Strategy.--Section 491 of title 10,
United States Code, as amended by section 1051, is amended by
adding after subsection (b) the following:
``(c) Limitation.--With respect to a new nuclear weapons
employment strategy described in a report submitted to
Congress under subsection (a), none of the funds made
available for fiscal year 2012 or any fiscal year thereafter
for the Department of Defense may be used to implement such
strategy until a period of one year has elapsed following the
date on which such report is submitted to Congress.''.
(c) Limitation.--During each of fiscal years 2012 through
2021, none of the funds made available for each such fiscal
year for the Department of Defense may be used to carry out
the results of the decisions made pursuant to the 2010
Nuclear Posture Review Implementation Study that would alter
the nuclear weapons employment strategy, guidance, plans, or
options of the United States until the date on which the
President certifies to the congressional defense committees
that--
(1) the President has included the resources necessary to
carry out the February 2011 update to the report required
under section 1251 of the National Defense Authorization Act
for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111 84; 123 Stat. 2549) in
the budget of the President submitted to Congress under
section 1105(a) of title 31, United States Code, for such
fiscal year;
(2) the resources described in paragraph (1) have been
provided to the President in an appropriations Act; and
(3) the sequestration mechanism under section 251A of the
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 has
been repealed or the sequestration mechanism under such
section for the security category has otherwise been
terminated.
SEC. 1055. LIMITATION ON STRATEGIC DELIVERY SYSTEM
REDUCTIONS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Nuclear Posture Review of 2010 said, with respect
to modernizing the triad, ``for planned reductions under New
START, the United States should retain a smaller Triad of
SLBMs, ICBMs, and heavy bombers. Retaining all three Triad
legs will best maintain strategic stability at reasonable
cost, while hedging against potential technical problems or
vulnerabilities.''.
(2) The Senate stated in Declaration 13 of the Resolution
of Advice and Consent to Ratification of the New START Treaty
that ``In accordance with paragraph 1 of Article V of the New
START Treaty, which states that, `Subject to the provisions
of this Treaty, modernization and replacement of strategic
offensive arms may be carried out,' it is the sense of the
Senate that United States deterrence and flexibility is
assured by a robust triad of strategic delivery vehicles. To
this end, the United States is committed to accomplishing the
modernization and replacement of its strategic nuclear
delivery vehicles, and to ensuring the continued flexibility
of United States conventional and nuclear delivery
systems.''.
(3) The Senate required the President, prior to the entry
into force of the New START Treaty, to certify to the Senate
that the President intended to modernize or replace the triad
of strategic nuclear delivery systems.
(4) The President made this certification in a message to
the Senate on February 2, 2011, in which the President
stated, ``I intend to (a) modernize or replace the triad of
strategic nuclear delivery systems: a heavy bomber and air-
launched cruise missile, an ICBM, and a nuclear-powered
ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) and SLBM; and (b) maintain
the United States rocket motor industrial base.''.
(b) Limitation.--
(1) In general.--Chapter 24 of title 10, United States
Code, as added by section 1051, is amended by adding at the
end the following new section:
``Sec. 494. Strategic delivery system reductions
``(a) Annual Certification.--Beginning fiscal year 2013,
the President shall annually certify in writing to the
congressional defense committees whether plans to modernize
or replace strategic delivery systems are fully resourced and
being executed at a level equal to or more than the levels
set forth in the November 2010 update to the plan referred to
in section 1251 of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111 84; 123 Stat. 2549),
including plans regarding--
[[Page H2893]]
``(1) a heavy bomber and air-launched cruise missile;
``(2) an intercontinental ballistic missile;
``(3) a submarine-launched ballistic missile;
``(4) a ballistic missile submarine; and
``(5) maintaining--
``(A) the nuclear command and control system; and
``(B) the rocket motor industrial base of the United
States.
``(b) Limitation.--If the President certifies under
subsection (a) that plans to modernize or replace strategic
delivery systems are not fully resourced or being executed,
none of the funds made available for fiscal year 2012 or any
fiscal year thereafter for the Department of Defense may be
used to reduce, convert, or eliminate strategic delivery
systems, whether deployed or nondeployed, pursuant to the New
START Treaty or otherwise until a period of 120 days has
elapsed following the date on which such certification is
made.
``(c) Exception.--The limitation in subsection (b) shall
not apply to--
``(1) reductions made to ensure the safety, security,
reliability, and credibility of the nuclear weapons stockpile
and strategic delivery systems, including activities related
to surveillance, assessment, certification, testing, and
maintenance of nuclear warheads and delivery systems; or
``(2) strategic delivery systems that are retired or
awaiting dismantlement on the date of the certification under
subsection (a).
``(d) Definitions.--In this section:
``(1) The term `New START Treaty' means the Treaty between
the United States of America and the Russian Federation on
Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of
Strategic Offensive Arms, signed on April 8, 2010, and
entered into force on February 5, 2011.
``(2) The term `strategic delivery system' means a delivery
platform for nuclear weapons.''.
(2) Clerical amendments.--The table of sections at the
beginning of such chapter is amended by adding at the end the
following new item:
``494. Strategic delivery system reductions.''.
SEC. 1056. PREVENTION OF ASYMMETRY OF NUCLEAR WEAPON
STOCKPILE REDUCTIONS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Then Secretary of Defense Robert Gates warned in 2008
that, ``There is no way to ignore efforts by rogue states
such as North Korea and Iran to develop and deploy nuclear
weapons or Russian or Chinese strategic modernization
programs. To be sure, we do not consider Russia or China as
adversaries, but we cannot ignore these developments and the
implications they have for our national security.''.
(2) The 2010 Nuclear Posture Review stated that, ``large
disparities in nuclear capabilities could raise concerns on
both sides and among U.S. allies and partners, and may not be
conducive to maintaining a stable, long-term strategic
relationship, especially as nuclear forces are significantly
reduced.''.
(3) The Senate stated in the Resolution of Advice and
Consent to Ratification of the New START Treaty that, ``It is
the sense of the Senate that, in conducting the reductions
mandated by the New START Treaty, the President should
regulate reductions in United States strategic offensive arms
so that the number of accountable strategic offensive arms
under the New START Treaty possessed by the Russian
Federation in no case exceeds the comparable number of
accountable strategic offensive arms possessed by the United
States to such an extent that a strategic imbalance endangers
the national security interests of the United States.''.
(4) At a hearing before the Committee on Armed Services of
the House of Representatives in 2011, Secretary of Defense
Leon Panetta said, with respect to unilateral nuclear
reductions by the United States, ``I don't think we ought to
do that unilaterally--we ought to do that on the basis of
negotiations with the Russians and others to make sure we are
all walking the same path.''.
(b) Certification.--Section 1045 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (50 U.S.C. 2523b) is
amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:
``(d) Prevention of Asymmetry in Reductions.--
``(1) Certification.--During any year in which the
President recommends to reduce the number of nuclear weapons
in the active and inactive stockpiles of the United States by
a number that is greater than one percent of the number of
nuclear weapons in such stockpiles, the President shall
certify in writing to the congressional defense committees
whether such reductions will cause the number of nuclear
weapons in such stockpiles to be fewer than the number of
nuclear weapons in the active and inactive stockpiles of the
Russian Federation.
``(2) Limitation.--If the President certifies under
paragraph (1) that the recommended number of nuclear weapons
in the active and inactive stockpiles of the United States is
fewer than the number of nuclear weapons in the active and
inactive stockpiles of the Russian Federation, none of the
funds made available for fiscal year 2012 or any fiscal year
thereafter for the Department of Defense or the National
Nuclear Security Administration may be used to carry out any
reduction to such stockpiles of the United States until--
``(A) after the date on which such certification is made,
the President transmits to the congressional defense
committees a report by the Commander of the United States
Strategic Command, without change, detailing whether the
recommended reduction would create a strategic imbalance
between the total nuclear forces of the United States and the
total nuclear forces of the Russian Federation; and
``(B) a period of 180 days has elapsed following the date
on which such report is transmitted.
``(3) Exception.--The limitation in paragraph (2) shall not
apply to--
``(A) reductions made to ensure the safety, security,
reliability, and credibility of the nuclear weapons stockpile
and strategic delivery systems, including activities related
to surveillance, assessment, certification, testing, and
maintenance of nuclear warheads and strategic delivery
systems; or
``(B) nuclear warheads that are retired or awaiting
dismantlement on the date of the certification under
paragraph (1).''.
SEC. 1057. CONSIDERATION OF EXPANSION OF NUCLEAR FORCES OF
OTHER COUNTRIES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Resolution of Advice and Consent to Ratification of
the New START Treaty of the Senate said, ``It is the sense of
the Senate that if, during the time the New START Treaty
remains in force, the President determines that there has
been an expansion of the strategic arsenal of any country not
party to the New START Treaty so as to jeopardize the supreme
interests of the United States, then the President should
consult on an urgent basis with the Senate to determine
whether adherence to the New START Treaty remains in the
national interest of the United States.''.
(2) In 2011, experts testified before the Committee on
Armed Services of the House of Representatives that--
(A) ``Russia is modernizing every leg of its nuclear triad
with new, more advanced systems'', including new ballistic
missile submarines, new heavy intercontinental ballistic
missiles carrying up to 15 warheads each, new shorter range
ballistic missiles, and new low-yield warheads; and
(B) ``China is steadily increasing the numbers and
capabilities of the ballistic missiles it deploys and is
upgrading older ICBMs to newer, more advanced systems. China
also appears to be actively working to develop a submarine-
based nuclear deterrent force, something it has never had. .
. . A recent unclassified Department of Defense report says
that this network of tunnels could be in excess of 5,000
kilometers and is used to transport nuclear weapons and
forces.''.
(b) Report and Certification.--
(1) In general.--Chapter 24 of title 10, United States
Code, as added by section 1051, is amended by adding at the
end the following new section:
``Sec. 495. Consideration of expansion of nuclear forces of
other countries
``(a) Report and Certification.--During any year in which
the President recommends any reductions in the nuclear forces
of the United States, none of the funds made available for
fiscal year 2012 or any fiscal year thereafter for the
Department of Defense or the National Nuclear Security
Administration may be used for such recommended reduction
until the date on which--
``(1) the President transmits to the appropriate
congressional committees a report detailing, for each country
with nuclear weapons--
``(A) the number of each type of nuclear weapons possessed
by such country;
``(B) the modernization plans for such weapons of such
country;
``(C) the production capacity of nuclear warheads and
strategic delivery systems (as defined in section 491(c) of
this title) of such country; and
``(D) the nuclear doctrine of such country; and
``(2) the Commander of the United States Strategic Command
certifies to the appropriate congressional committees whether
such recommended reductions in the nuclear forces of the
United States will--
``(A) impair the ability of the United States to address--
``(i) unplanned strategic or geopolitical events; or
``(ii) technical challenge; or
``(B) degrade the deterrence or assurance provided by the
United States to friends and allies of the United States.
``(b) Form.--The reports required by subsection (a)(1)
shall be submitted in unclassified form, but may include a
classified annex.
``(c) Appropriate Congressional Committees Defined.--In
this section, the term `appropriate congressional committees'
means the following:
``(1) The congressional defense committees.
``(2) The Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of
Representatives and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the
Senate.''.
(2) The table of sections at the beginning of chapter 24 of
title 10, United States Code, is amended by inserting after
the item relating to section 494 the following new item:
``495. Consideration of expansion of nuclear forces of other
countries.''.
SEC. 1058. CHEMISTRY AND METALLURGY RESEARCH REPLACEMENT
NUCLEAR FACILITY AND URANIUM PROCESSING
FACILITY.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Administrator for Nuclear Security Thomas D'Agostino
testified before the Committee on Armed Services of the House
of Representatives in February 2008 that ``Infrastructure
improvements are a major part of the complex transformation
plan that we have, and we've made important progress, but we
have a lot more to do. Some major facilities that we have
date back to World War II and cannot readily meet today's
safety and security requirements. Let me give you just two
quick examples, if I could. A sufficient capability to work
with plutonium is an essential part of a national security
enterprise and is required for as long as we retain a nuclear
deterrent, and most likely even longer. Currently, we have a
very small production capacity at Los Alamos, about 10 pits
per year, at our TA 55 area. Our building at Los Alamos,
[[Page H2894]]
the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Facility, is well over
50 years old and is insufficient to support the national
security requirements for the stockpile and for future
national security mission areas. So, whether we continue on
our existing path or move towards a replacement modern
warhead-type stockpile, we still need the capacity to produce
about 50 to 80 pits per year, which is less than one-tenth of
our Cold War level, as well as the ability to carry out pit
surveillance, which is an essential part of maintaining our
stockpile.''.
(2) Then Commander of the United States Strategic Command
General Kevin P. Chilton also testified in February 2008 that
``When you have a responsive complex that has the capacity to
flex to production as you may need it or adjust your deployed
force posture in the future, should you need it--in other
words, if we go to a lower number, you need to be certain
that you can come back up, should the strategic environment
change, and you can't necessarily without that flexible or
responsive infrastructure behind it, and that's probably one
of my great concerns. And then how you posture both the
portion of your stockpile that you hold in reserve and your
confidence in the weapons that you have deployed is very much
a function of modernizing, in my view, the weapons systems
that we have available today, which are, as the secretary
described, of Cold War legacy design, and the associated
issues with them.''.
(3) The Congressional Commission on the Strategic Posture
of the United States reported in May 2009, with respect to
the timing of the replacement of the nuclear weapons
infrastructure of the United States, that ``This raises an
obvious question about whether these two replacement programs
might proceed in sequence rather than concurrently. There are
strong arguments for moving forward concurrently. Existing
facilities are genuinely decrepit and are maintained in a
safe and secure manner only at high cost. Moreover, the
improved production capabilities they promise are integral to
the program of refurbishment and modernization described in
the preceding chapter. If funding can be found for both, this
would best serve the national interest in maintaining a safe,
secure, and reliable stockpile of weapons in the most
effective and efficient manner.''.
(4) The 2010 Nuclear Posture Review states--
(A) ``The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA),
in close coordination with DoD, will provide a new stockpile
stewardship and management plan to Congress within 90 days,
consistent with the increases in infrastructure investment
requested in the President's FY 2011 budget. As critical
infrastructure is restored and modernized, it will allow the
United States to begin to shift away from retaining large
numbers of non-deployed warheads as a technical hedge,
allowing additional reductions in the U.S. stockpile of non-
deployed nuclear weapons over time.'';
(B) ``In order to sustain a safe, secure, and effective
U.S. nuclear stockpile as long as nuclear weapons exist, the
United States must possess a modern physical infrastructure--
comprised of the national security laboratories and a complex
of supporting facilities.'';
(C) ``Funding the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research
Replacement Project at Los Alamos National Laboratory to
replace the existing 50-year old Chemistry and Metallurgy
Research facility in 2021.'';
(D) ``Developing a new Uranium Processing Facility at the Y
12 Plant in Oak Ridge, Tennessee to come on line for
production operations in 2021.'';
(E) ``Without an ability to produce uranium components, any
plan to sustain the stockpile, as well as support for our
Navy nuclear propulsion, will come to a halt. This would have
a significant impact, not just on the weapons program, but in
dealing with nuclear dangers of many kinds.''; and
(F) ``The non-deployed stockpile currently includes more
warheads than required for the above purposes, due to the
limited capacity of the National Nuclear Security
Administration (NNSA) complex to conduct LEPs for deployed
weapons in a timely manner. Progress in restoring NNSA's
production infrastructure will allow these excess warheads to
be retired along with other stockpile reductions planned over
the next decade.''.
(5) In the memorandum of agreement between the Department
of Defense and the Department of Energy concerning the
modernization of the nuclear weapon stockpile of the United
States dated May 3, 2010, then Secretary of Defense Robert
Gates and Secretary of Energy Steven Chu agreed that ``DOE
Agrees to . . . increase pit production capacity . . . plan
and program to ramp up to a minimum of 50 80 PPY in 2022.''.
(6) The plan required under section 1251 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law
111 84; 123 Stat. 2549) submitted by the President states
that the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement
building and the Uranium Processing Facility will complete
construction by 2021 and will achieve full operational
functionality by 2024.
(7) The Senate required that, prior to the entry into force
of the New START Treaty, the President certifies to the
Senate that the President intends to--
(A) accelerate to the extent possible the design and
engineering phase of the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research
Replacement building and the Uranium Processing Facility; and
(B) request full funding, including on a multiyear basis as
appropriate, for the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research
Replacement building and the Uranium Processing Facility upon
completion of the design and engineering phase for such
facilities.
(8) The President did request full funding for such
facilities on February 2, 2011, when the President stated,
``I intend to (a) accelerate, to the extent possible, the
design and engineering phase of the Chemistry and Metallurgy
Research Replacement (CMRR) building and the Uranium
Processing Facility (UPF); and (b) request full funding,
including on a multi-year basis as appropriate, for the CMRR
building and the UPF upon completion of the design and
engineering phase for such facilities.''.
(b) Limitation.--Section 1045 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (50 U.S.C. 2523b), as
amended by section 1056(b), is amended by adding at the end
the following new subsection:
``(e) CMRR and UPF.--
``(1) Annual certification.--Beginning fiscal year 2013,
the President shall annually certify in writing to the
congressional defense committees whether--
``(A) the construction of both the Chemistry and Metallurgy
Research Replacement building and the Uranium Processing
Facility will be completed by not later than 2021; and
``(B) both facilities will be fully operational by not
later than 2024.
``(2) Limitation.--If the President certifies under
paragraph (1) that the Chemistry and Metallurgy Research
Replacement building and the Uranium Processing Facility will
be completed by later than 2021 or be fully operational by
later than 2024, none of the funds made available for fiscal
year 2012 or any fiscal year thereafter for the National
Nuclear Security Administration may be used to reduce the
nondeployed nuclear warheads in the nuclear weapons stockpile
of the United States until a period of 120 days has elapsed
following the date of such certification.
``(3) Exception.--The limitation in paragraph (2) shall not
apply to--
``(A) reductions made to ensure the safety, security,
reliability, and credibility of the nuclear weapons stockpile
and delivery systems, including activities related to
surveillance, assessment, certification, testing, and
maintenance of nuclear warheads and strategic delivery
systems; or
``(B) nuclear warheads that are retired or awaiting
dismantlement on the date of the certification under
paragraph (1).
``(4) Termination.--The requirement in paragraph (1) shall
terminate on the date on which the President certifies in
writing to the congressional defense committees that the
Chemistry and Metallurgy Research Replacement building and
the Uranium Processing Facility are both fully
operational.''.
SEC. 1059. NUCLEAR WARHEADS ON INTERCONTINENTAL BALLISTIC
MISSILES OF THE UNITED STATES.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that
reducing the number of nuclear warheads contained on each
intercontinental ballistic missile of the United States does
not promote strategic stability if at the same time other
nuclear weapons states, including the Russian Federation and
the People's Republic of China, are rapidly increasing the
warhead-loading of their land-based missile forces.
(b) Limitation.--
(1) In general.--Chapter 24 of title 10, United States
Code, as added by section 1051, is amended by adding at the
end the following new section:
``Sec. 496. Nuclear warheads on intercontinental ballistic
missiles of the United States
``(a) In General.--During any year in which the President
proposes to reduce the number of nuclear warheads contained
on an intercontinental ballistic missile of the United
States, none of the funds made available for fiscal year 2012
or any fiscal year thereafter for the Department of Defense
or the National Nuclear Security Administration may be used
for such proposed reduction if the reduction results in such
missile having only a single nuclear warhead unless the
President certifies in writing to the congressional defense
committees that the Russian Federation and the People's
Republic of China are both also carrying out a similar
reduction.
``(b) Exception.--The limitation in subsection (a) shall
not apply to reductions made to ensure the safety, security,
reliability, and credibility of the nuclear weapons stockpile
and delivery systems, including activities related to
surveillance, assessment, certification, testing, and
maintenance of nuclear warheads and strategic delivery
systems.''.
(2) The table of sections at the beginning of chapter 24 of
title 10, United States Code, is amended by inserting after
the item relating to section 495 the following:
``496. Nuclear warheads on intercontinental ballistic missiles of the
United States.''.
SEC. 1060. NONSTRATEGIC NUCLEAR WEAPON REDUCTIONS AND
EXTENDED DETERRENCE POLICY.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The NATO Strategic Concept of 2010 endorsed the
continued role of nuclear weapons in the security of the NATO
alliance, stating--
(A) ``The supreme guarantee of the security of the Allies
is provided by the strategic nuclear forces of the Alliance,
particularly those of the United States; the independent
strategic nuclear forces of the United Kingdom and France,
which have a deterrent role of their own, contribute to the
overall deterrence and security of the Allies.'';
(B) ``We will ensure that NATO has the full range of
capabilities necessary to deter and defend against any threat
to the safety and security of our populations. Therefore, we
will . . . maintain an appropriate mix of nuclear and
conventional forces''; and
(C) ``[NATO will] ensure the broadest possible
participation of Allies in collective defence planning on
nuclear roles, in peacetime basing of nuclear forces, and in
command, control and consultation arrangements.''.
(2) However, the 2010 Strategic Concept also walked away
from the decades-long policy encapsulated by the 1999
Strategic Concept that
[[Page H2895]]
said, ``The presence of United States conventional and
nuclear forces in Europe remains vital to the security of
Europe, which is inseparably linked to that of North
America.''.
(3) Former Secretary of Defense William Perry said in March
2011 testimony before the Subcommittee on Strategic Forces of
the Committee on Armed Services of the House of
Representatives that ``the reason we have nuclear weapons in
Europe in the first place, is not because the rest of our
weapons are not capable of deterrence, but because, during
the Cold War at least, our allies in Europe felt more assured
when we had nuclear weapons in Europe. That is why they were
deployed there in the first place. Today the issue is a
little different. The issue is the Russians in the meantime
have built a large number of nuclear weapons, and we keep our
nuclear weapons there as somewhat of a political leverage for
dealing with an ultimate treaty in which we may get Russia
and the United States to eliminate tactical nuclear weapons.
My own view is it would be desirable if both the United
States and Russia would eliminate tactical nuclear weapons,
but I see it as very difficult to arrive at that conclusion
if we were to simply eliminate all of our tactical nuclear
weapons unilaterally.''.
(4) During testimony before the Subcommittee on Strategic
Forces of the Committee on Armed Services of the House of
Representatives in July 2011--
(A) former Department of Defense official Frank Miller
stated, ``as long as U.S. allies believe that those weapons
need to be there, we need to make sure that we provide that
security.''; and
(B) former Department of Defense official Mort Halperin
stated, ``I do not think we should be willing to trade our
withdrawal of our nuclear weapons from Europe for some
reduction, even a substantial reduction, in Russian tactical
nuclear weapons because if it is . . . that the credibility
of the American nuclear deterrent for our NATO allies depends
on the presence of nuclear weapons in Europe, that will not
change if the Russians cut their tactical nuclear arsenal by
two thirds, or even eliminate it because they will still have
their strategic weapons, which, while they can't have
intermediate range missiles, they can find a way to target
them on the NATO countries.''.
(5) Section 1237(b) of the National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (Public Law 112 81) expressed the
sense of Congress that--
(A) the commitment of the United States to extended
deterrence in Europe and the nuclear alliance of NATO is an
important component of ensuring and linking the national
security of the United States and its European allies;
(B) the nuclear forces of the United States are a key
component of the NATO nuclear alliance; and
(C) the presence of the nuclear weapons of the United
States in Europe--combined with NATO's unique nuclear sharing
arrangements under which non-nuclear members participate in
nuclear planning and possess specially configured aircraft
capable of delivering nuclear weapons--provides reassurance
to NATO allies who feel exposed to regional threats.
(b) Limitation.--Chapter 24 of title 10, United States
Code, as added by section 1051, is amended by adding at the
end the following new section:
``Sec. 497. Limitation on reduction, consolidation, or
withdrawal of nuclear forces based in Europe
``(a) Policy on Nonstrategic Nuclear Weapons.--It is the
policy of the United States--
``(1) to pursue negotiations with the Russian Federation
aimed at the reduction of Russian deployed and nondeployed,
nonstrategic nuclear forces;
``(2) that nonstrategic nuclear weapons should be
considered when weighing the balance of the nuclear forces of
the United States and the Russian Federation;
``(3) that any geographical relocation or storage of
nonstrategic nuclear weapons by the Russian Federation does
not constitute a reduction or elimination of such weapons;
``(4) the vast advantage of the Russian Federation in
nonstrategic nuclear weapons constitutes a threat to the
United States and its allies and a growing asymmetry in
Western Europe; and
``(5) the forward-deployed nuclear forces of the United
States are an important contributor to the assurance of the
allies of the United States and constitute a check on
proliferation and a tool in dealing with neighboring states
hostile to NATO.
``(b) Policy on Extended Deterrence Commitment to Europe.--
It is the policy of the United States that--
``(1) it maintain its commitment to extended deterrence,
specifically the nuclear alliance of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization, as an important component of ensuring
and linking the national security interests of the United
States and the security of its European allies;
``(2) forward-deployed nuclear forces of the United States
shall remain based in Europe in support of the nuclear policy
and posture of NATO;
``(3) the presence of nuclear weapons of the United States
in Europe--combined with NATO's unique nuclear sharing
arrangements under which non-nuclear members participate in
nuclear planning and possess specially configured aircraft
capable of delivering nuclear weapons--contributes to the
cohesion of NATO and provides reassurance to allies and
partners who feel exposed to regional threats; and
``(4) only the President and Congress can articulate when
and how the United States will employ the nuclear forces of
the United States and no multilateral organization, not even
NATO, can articulate a declaratory policy concerning the use
of nuclear weapons that binds the United States.
``(c) Limitation on Reduction, Consolidation, or Withdrawal
of Nuclear Forces Based in Europe.--In light of the policy
expressed in subsections (a) and (b), none of the funds made
available for fiscal year 2012 or any fiscal year thereafter
for the Department of Defense may be used to effect or
implement the reduction, consolidation, or withdrawal of
nuclear forces of the United States that are based in Europe
unless--
``(1) the reduction, consolidation, or withdrawal of such
nuclear forces is requested by the government of the host
nation in the manner provided in the agreement between the
United States and the host nation regarding the forces;
``(2) the President certifies that--
``(A) NATO member states have considered the reduction,
consolidation, or withdrawal in the High Level Group;
``(B) NATO has decided to support such reduction,
consolidation, or withdrawal;
``(C) the remaining nuclear forces of the United States
that are based in Europe after such reduction, consolidation,
or withdrawal would provide a commensurate or better level of
assurance and credibility as before such reduction,
consolidation, or withdrawal; and
``(D) there has been reciprocal action by the Russian
Federation, not including the Russian Federation relocating
nuclear forces from one location to another; or
``(3) the reduction, consolidation, or withdrawal of such
nuclear forces is specifically authorized by an Act of
Congress.
``(d) Notification.--Upon any decision to reduce,
consolidate, or withdraw the nuclear forces of the United
States that are based in Europe, the President shall submit
to the appropriate congressional committees a notification
containing--
``(1) the certification required by paragraph (2) of
subsection (c) if such reduction, consolidation, or
withdrawal is based upon such paragraph;
``(2) justification for such reduction, consolidation, or
withdrawal; and
``(3) an assessment of how NATO member states, in light of
such reduction, consolidation, or withdrawal, assess the
credibility of the deterrence capability of the United States
in support of its commitments undertaken pursuant to article
5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, signed at Washington,
District of Columbia, on April 4, 1949, and entered into
force on August 24, 1949 (63 Stat. 2241; TIAS 1964).
``(e) Notice and Wait Requirement.--The President may not
commence a reduction, consolidation, or withdrawal of the
nuclear forces of the United States that are based in Europe
for which the certification required by subsection (c)(2) is
made until the expiration of a 180-day period beginning on
the date on which the President submits the notification
under subsection (d) containing the certification.

SEC. 1214. PROHIBITION ON USE OF PRIVATE SECURITY CONTRACTORS
AND MEMBERS OF THE AFGHAN PUBLIC PROTECTION
FORCE TO PROVIDE SECURITY FOR MEMBERS OF THE
ARMED FORCES AND MILITARY INSTALLATIONS AND
FACILITIES IN AFGHANISTAN.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) According to the Department of Defense, as of February
1, 2012, there had been 42 insider attacks on coalition
forces since 2007 by the Afghan National Army, Afghan
National Police, or Afghan nationals hired by private
security contractors to guard United States bases and
facilities in Afghanistan.
(2) The Department of Defense data shows that the trend of
insider attacks is increasing.
(3) Members of the Armed Forces of the United States
continue to be garrisoned and housed in facilities and
installations in Afghanistan that are guarded by private
security contractors and not by United States or coalition
forces.
(4) President Karzai has prohibited the use of private
security contractors in Afghanistan and determined that
beginning in March, 2012, the Afghan Ministry of Interior
will provide Afghan Public Protection Forces on a
reimbursable basis to those desiring to contract for
additional security.
(5) The Afghan Ministry of Interior will have the primary
responsibility for screening and vetting the Afghan nationals
who will comprise the Afghan Public Protection Force.
(6) The current force levels in Afghanistan are necessary
to accomplish the International Security Assistance Force
mission and force protection for members of the Armed Forces
garrisoned and housed in Afghanistan should not come at the
expense of mission success.
(7) The President of the United States has begun to draw
down United States military forces in Afghanistan and has
committed to continue this drawdown through 2014.
(8) The redeployment phase of any military operation brings
increasing vulnerabilities to members of the Armed Forces.
(9) It is the responsibility of the Commander in Chief to
provide for the security for members of the Armed Forces
deployed to Afghanistan and to mitigate internal threats to
such forces to the greatest extent possible, while continuing
to meet the objectives of the International Security
Assistance Force mission in Afghanistan, including the
training and equipping of the Afghan National Security Forces
in order that they may provide for their own security.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the best security and force protection for members of
the Armed Forces garrisoned and housed in Afghanistan should
be provided;
(2) better security and force protection for members of the
Armed Forces garrisoned and housed in Afghanistan can be
provided by United States military personnel than private
security contractors or members of the Afghan Public
Protection Force;
(3) the President should take action in light of the
increased risk to members of the Armed Forces during this
transitional period in Afghanistan and the increasing number
of insider attacks; and
(4) the United States remains committed to mission success
in Afghanistan in light of the national security interests in
the region and the sacrifice and commitment of the United
States Armed Forces over the last ten years.
(c) Prohibition.--Notwithstanding section 2465 of title 10,
United States Code, funds appropriated to the Department of
Defense may not be obligated or expended for the purpose of--
(1) entering into a contract for the performance of
security-guard functions at a military installation or
facility in Afghanistan at which members of the Armed Forces
deployed to Afghanistan are garrisoned or housed;
[[Page H2906]]
(2) otherwise employing private security contractors to
provide security for members of the Armed Forces deployed to
Afghanistan; or
(3) employing the Afghan Public Protection Force to provide
security for such members or to perform such security-guard
functions at such a military installation or facility.
(d) Requirement.--
(1) In general.--The President shall ensure that as many
appropriately trained members of the Armed Forces of the
United States as are necessary are available to--
(A) perform security-guard functions at all military
installations and facilities in Afghanistan at which members
of the Armed Forces deployed to Afghanistan are garrisoned or
housed;
(B) provide security for members of the Armed Forces
deployed to Afghanistan; and
(C) provide adequate counterintelligence support for such
members.
(2) Relationship to other requirements and limitations.--
The members of the Armed Forces required to be made available
under paragraph (1) shall be in addition to--
(A) the number of such members who are deployed to
Afghanistan to support the requirements of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization mission in Afghanistan and the military
campaign plan of the Commander of the International Security
and Assistance Force; and
(B) any limitation on force levels that may be in effect.
(e) Waiver.--The President may waive the prohibition under
subsection (c) and the requirement under subsection (d) if
the President submits to Congress a certification in writing
that--
(1) the use of private security contractors or the Afghan
Public Protection Force can provide a level of security and
force protection for members of the Armed Forces deployed to
Afghanistan that is at least equal to the security and force
protection that can be provided by members of the Armed
Forces; and
(2) the Secretary of Defense has ensured that all employees
of private security contractors and members of the Afghan
Public Protection Force providing security or force
protection for members of the Armed Forces deployed to
Afghanistan are independently screened and vetted by members
of the Armed Forces of the United States.
(f) Report.--
(1) In general.--Not later than 30 days after the end of
each quarter of fiscal years 2013 and 2014, the Secretary of
Defense shall submit to the congressional defense committees
a report on the following:

National Security Forces, the Afghan Public Protection Force,
and private security contractors on United States Armed
Forces and civilian personnel of the Department of Defense.
(B) The number of members of the United States Armed Forces
and civilian personnel of the Department of Defense wounded
or killed due to such attacks.
(C) A description of tactical or covert methods used in
such attacks and a description of motivations for such
attacks.

following the date of the enactment of this Act and the
report submitted for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014
shall also include the following:
(A) Actions the Department of Defense is taking to monitor
indicators and early warning signs of infiltration or co-
option of the Afghan National Security Forces, the Afghan
Public Protection Force, and private security contractors.
(B) The methodology and systematic approach to resolving
disputes between the Afghan National Security Forces and
United States Armed Forces and civilian personnel of the
Department of Defense when such disputes arise.

Armed Forces deployed to Afghanistan'' means members of the
Armed Forces deployed to Afghanistan in support of the
International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan and
members of the Armed Forces of the United States deployed to
Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
SEC. 1215. REPORT ON UPDATES AND MODIFICATIONS TO CAMPAIGN

modified plan, including an assessment of the updated or
modified plan.

Act substantially meets the requirement to submit the report
under subsection (a); and
(2) notifies the congressional defense committees in
writing of the determination under paragraph (1).

123 Stat. 2525) is repealed.
SEC. 1216. UNITED STATES MILITARY SUPPORT IN AFGHANISTAN.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) following Al Qaeda's attacks on the United States on
September 11, 2001, United States and coalition forces have
achieved significant progress toward security and stability
in Afghanistan;
(2) as the United States completes transfer of the lead for
security to the Afghan National Security Forces by the end of
2014, the United States should ensure that the gains in
security are maintained;
(3) the United States mission in Afghanistan continues to
be to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat al Qaeda, as well as to
prevent its return to either Afghanistan or Pakistan;
(4) the specific objectives in Afghanistan are to deny safe
haven to Al Qaeda and to deny the Taliban the ability to
overthrow the Afghan Government;
(5) the Taliban, Haqqanis, and associated insurgents
continue to enjoy safe havens in Pakistan, but are unlikely
to be capable of overthrowing the Afghan Government unless
the United States withdraws forces precipitously from
Afghanistan;
(6) the Haqqani Network provides unique capabilities and
capacity to the Afghan Taliban, and additionally, serves as a
combat multiplier to the Afghan insurgency due to its
geographic primacy over the key terrain of the Paktika,
Paktia, and Khost provinces, as well as North and South
Waziristan, and willingness to introduce international
weaponry and technology into the battle space and serve as
the reception point and integrator of international foreign
fighters into the Afghan insurgency;
(7) the Haqqani Network has been the most important Afghan-
based protector of Al Qaeda;
(8) the unique capabilities and effects brought to the
battle space by the Haqqani Network necessitate that the
Government of Afghanistan should have superior operational
capacity in order to maintain the security of Afghanistan
over time;
(9) the United States military should not maintain an
indefinite combat mission in Afghanistan and should
transition to a counter-terrorism and advise and assist
mission at the earliest practicable date, consistent with
conditions on the ground;
(10) significant uncertainty exists within Afghanistan
regarding the level of future United States military support;
and
(11) in order to reduce this uncertainty, and to promote
further stability and security in Afghanistan, the President
should--
(A) fully consider the International Security Assistance
Force Commander's assessment regarding the need for the
United States to maintain a ``significant combat presence
through 2013'';
(B) maintain a force of at least 68,000 troops through
December 31, 2014, unless fewer forces can achieve United
States objectives;
(C) maintain a credible troop presence after December 31,
2014, sufficient to conduct counter-terrorism and train and
advise the Afghan National Security Forces, consistent with
the Strategic Partnership Agreement (signed on May 2, 2012);
and
(D) maintain sufficient funding for the Afghan National
Security Forces to accomplish the objectives described in
paragraphs (3), (4), and (8).
(b) Notification.--The President shall notify the
congressional defense committees of any decision to reduce
the number of United States Armed Forces deployed in
Afghanistan below the number of such Armed Forces deployed in
Afghanistan on--
(1) December 31, 2012,
(2) December 31, 2013, and
(3) December 31, 2014,
prior to any public announcement of any such decision to
reduce the number of United States Armed Forces deployed in
Afghanistan.
(c) Matters to Include in Notification.--As part of a
notification required by subsection (b), the President
shall--
(1) provide an assessment of the relevant security risk
metrics associated with the marginal reduction in force
levels; and
(2) provide a by-unit assessment of the operational
capability of the Afghan National Security Forces to
independently conduct the required operations to maintain
security in Afghanistan.

Subtitle C--Matters Relating to Iran
SEC. 1221. DECLARATION OF POLICY.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Iran, which has long sought to foment instability and
promote extremism in the Middle East, is now seeking to
exploit the dramatic political transition underway in the
region to undermine governments traditionally aligned with
the United States and support extremist political movements
in these countries.
(2) At the same time, Iran may soon attain a nuclear
weapons capability, a development that would threaten United
States interests, destabilize the region, encourage regional
nuclear proliferation, further empower and embolden Iran, the
world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, and provide it
the tools to threaten its neighbors, including Israel.
(3) With the assistance of Iran over the past several
years, Syria, Hezbollah, and Hamas have increased their
stockpiles of rockets, with more than 60,000 rockets now
ready to be fired at Israel. Iran continues to add to its
arsenal of ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, which
threaten Iran's neighbors, Israel, and United States Armed
Forces in the region.
(4) Preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon is
among the most urgent national security challenges facing the
United States.
(5) Successive United States administrations have stated
that an Iran armed with a nuclear weapon is unacceptable.
(6) President Obama stated on January 24, 2012, ``Let there
be no doubt: America is determined to prevent Iran from
getting a nuclear weapon, and I will take no options off the
table to achieve that goal.''.
(7) In order to prevent Iran from developing nuclear
weapons, the United States, in cooperation with its allies,
must utilize all elements of national power including
diplomacy, robust economic sanctions, and credible, visible
preparations for a military option.
(8) Nevertheless, to date, diplomatic overtures, sanctions,
and other non-kinetic actions toward Iran have not caused the
Government of Iran to abandon its nuclear weapons program.
(9) With the impact of additional sanctions uncertain,
additional pressure on the Government of Iran could come from
the credible threat of military action against Iran's nuclear
program.
(b) Declaration of Policy.--It shall be the policy of the
United States to take all necessary measures, including
military action if required, to prevent Iran from threatening
the United States, its allies, or Iran's neighbors with a
nuclear weapon.
SEC. 1222. UNITED STATES MILITARY PREPAREDNESS IN THE MIDDLE
EAST.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) military exercises conducted in the Persian Gulf and
Gulf of Oman emphasize the United States resolve and the
policy of the United States described in section 1221(b) by
enhancing the readiness of the United States military and
allied forces, as well as signaling to the Government of Iran
the commitment of the United States to defend its vital
national security interests; and
(2) the President, as Commander in Chief, should augment
the presence of the United States Fifth Fleet in the Middle
East and to conduct military deployments, exercises, or other
visible, concrete military readiness activities to underscore
the policy of the United States described in section 1221(b).
(b) Plan.--
(1) In general.--The Secretary of Defense shall prepare a
plan to augment the presence of the United States Fifth Fleet
in the Middle East and to conduct military deployments,
exercises, or other visible, concrete military readiness
activities to underscore the policy of the United States
described in section 1221(b).
(2) Matters to be included.--The plan required under
paragraph (1) shall include, at a minimum, steps necessary
for the Armed Forces to support the policy of the United
States described in section 1221(b), including--
(A) pre-positioning sufficient supplies of aircraft,
munitions, fuel, and other materials for both air- and sea-
based missions at key forward locations in the Middle East
and Indian Ocean;
(B) maintaining sufficient naval assets in the region
necessary to signal United States resolve and to bolster
United States capabilities to launch a sustained sea and air
campaign against a range of Iranian nuclear and military
targets, to protect seaborne shipping, and to deny Iranian
retaliation against United States interests in the region;
(C) discussing the viability of deploying at least two
United States aircraft carriers, an additional large deck
amphibious ship, and a Mine Countermeasures Squadron in the
region on a continual basis, in support of the actions
described in subparagraph (B); and
(D) conducting naval fleet exercises similar to the United
States Fifth Fleet's major exercise in the region in March
2007 to demonstrate ability to keep the Strait of Hormuz open
and to counter the use of anti-ship missiles and swarming
high-speed boats.
(3) Submission to congress.--The plan required under
paragraph (1) shall be submitted to the congressional defense
committees not later than 120 days after the date of
enactment of this Act.

requirements unless the cost savings are expected to be
substantial in relation to the dollar value of the
procurement requirements to be bundled.

Federal agency may not carry out an acquisition strategy that
includes bundled contracts valued in excess of the dollar
threshold, unless the senior procurement executive or, if

contracting agency determines that an acquisition plan or
proposed procurement strategy will result in a bundled
contract, the proposed acquisition plan or procurement
strategy shall--
``(1) identify specifically the benefits anticipated to be
derived from the bundling of contract requirements;
``(2) set forth an assessment of the specific impediments
to participation by small business concerns as prime
contractors that result from the contract bundling and
specify actions designed to maximize small business
participation as subcontractors (including suppliers) at
various tiers under the contract or contracts that are
awarded to meet the requirements; and
``(3) include a specific determination that the anticipated
measurable benefits of the proposed bundled contract justify
its use.
``(f) Contract Teaming.--In the case of a solicitation of
offers for a bundled contract that is issued by the head of

provides for use of a particular team of subcontractors for

SEC. 3157. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON COMPETITION AND FEES RELATED
TO THE MANAGEMENT AND OPERATING CONTRACTS OF
THE NUCLEAR SECURITY ENTERPRISE.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) in the past decade, competition of the management and
operating contracts for the national security laboratories
has resulted in significant increases in fees paid to the
contractors--funding that otherwise could be used to support
program and mission activities of the National Nuclear
Security Administration;
(2) competition of the management and operating contracts
of the nuclear security enterprise is an important mechanism
to help realize cost savings, seek efficiencies, improve
performance, and hold contractors accountable;
(3) when the Administrator for Nuclear Security considers
it appropriate to achieve these goals, the Administrator
should conduct competition of these contracts while
recognizing the unique nature of federally funded research
and development centers; and
(4) the Administrator should ensure that fixed fees and
performance-based fees contained in management and operating
contracts are as low as possible to maintain a focus on
national service while attracting high-quality contractors
and achieving the goals of the competition.

Mr. McKEON (during the reading). Mr. Chairman, I ask unanimous
consent that the modification be considered as read.
The Acting CHAIR. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman
from California?
There was no objection.
The Acting CHAIR. Is there objection to modifying the amendment?
Without objection, the amendment is modified.
There was no objection.
The Acting CHAIR. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from California.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
We have worked long and hard, the staff has worked long and hard to
get us to this point. This manager's amendment that we've worked on has
been worked through both sides. We have unanimous agreement on it. It's
a good bill, a good addition to the bill, and I ask that it be
approved.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, although I am not opposed, I
ask unanimous consent to claim the time in opposition.
The Acting CHAIR. Without objection, the gentleman is recognized for
5 minutes.
There was no objection.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I yield 2\1/2\ minutes to the
gentleman from California (Mr. Berman), the ranking member on the
Foreign Affairs Committee.
Mr. BERMAN. Thank you, Mr. Smith, for yielding me this time.
I rise in support of the manager's amendment, but to speak in support
of the Smith amendment, which is part of the en bloc amendment which
will be taken up next. I am pleased to join Ranking Member Smith,
Chairman McKeon, and Foreign Affairs Chair Ros-Lehtinen as sponsor of
the Smith amendment.
I am particularly pleased that this amendment incorporates most of
H.R. 3288, the Safeguarding United States Satellite Leadership and
Security Act, legislation I introduced last November, along with Don
Manzullo, Adam Smith, Dutch Ruppersberger, Rob Bishop, Martin Heinrich,
Mike Coffman, and Gerry Connolly. We have since been joined by 12 other
cosponsors from both sides of the aisle, many of whom are also
cosponsors of this amendment.
Mr. Chairman, this bipartisan amendment, which will be part of the en
bloc, would help restore America's global competitiveness in high-tech
satellite technology and protect vital U.S. national security
interests.
Treating commercial satellites and components as if they were lethal
weapons, regardless of whether they're going to friend or foe, has
gravely
[[Page H2998]]
harmed American space manufacturers--a view borne out by numerous
studies, industry assessments, and the administration's own recent
``1248'' report to Congress. We depend on these manufacturers for our
own critical defense needs. If onerous restrictions prevent them from
competing in the international marketplace, then they can't innovate
and ultimately cannot survive.
This amendment also supports U.S. national security. It includes a
strict prohibition on any satellite exports to China--the original
concern that caused Congress to transfer all satellites to the
Munitions List--as well as to Iran, North Korea, Syria, Sudan, and
Cuba.
I urge my colleagues to support the amendment, and I thank the chair
and the ranking member of the committee for their support of this
amendment.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I just want to rise to commend the
gentleman, Mr. Berman, for his strong work on this amendment, for the
work that he's done to further this cause of helping businesses in
being able to do business abroad while still protecting the security of
America.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself the balance of
my time.
I support the manager's amendment. I'm going to speak the balance of
my time on the Smith-Amash amendment coming up later. There has been a
great deal of distorted information going out. I want to take this
opportunity to correct some of it.
First of all, the Gohmert amendment that's being offered does not
solve the problem; you will still be subject to military custody and
indefinite detention. It is not clear on that point; it leaves open the
possibility the President will maintain that authority, and that is
what this debate should be all about.
The President, right now, has the authority to go outside of the
normal due process, constitutionally protected rights that are part of
a court trial, and lock somebody up indefinitely or place them in
military custody here in the U.S. That is an extraordinary amount of
power to give the executive branch over individual freedom and liberty.
I don't think it is necessary to keep us safe. Ten years of
successfully prosecuting, convicting, and locking up terrorists under
Article III courts has proven that point.
But hands down, the dumbest set of arguments I've ever heard in
debating has been circulating that somehow taking away this
extraordinary power from the President rewards terrorists. I would like
to remind everybody--and particularly Tea Party conservatives--that
just because the government arrests you doesn't mean you're guilty.
Under their thinking, basically, once the government says you're a
terrorist, you're a terrorist, and we shouldn't have a trial about it.
So any effort to make sure that there's a process, to make sure that
you actually are a terrorist becomes rewarding them. No; it's the
process to make sure they are actually guilty. I cannot believe that
Tea Party conservatives want to create a situation where when the
government says you're guilty of a crime, that's it--no trial, no
process, let's just lock you up and forget about it. That's why we have
a court system.
Let's have the real debate here. Does the President need this
authority to keep us safe? I don't believe he does. Let's stop these
ridiculous arguments about rewarding terrorists and have some respect
for the Constitution and due process.
With that, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. At this point, Mr. Chairman, I yield the balance of our
time to the vice chairman of the committee, the gentleman from Texas
(Mr. Thornberry).
Mr. THORNBERRY. I thank the chairman for yielding.
Mr. Chairman, we're going to have ample opportunity to debate a
number of the issues that the distinguished ranking member raised, but
I don't think that we can be here on the floor and allow some of the
arguments that have been made to go without some challenge.
For example, to say that a letter signed by two former Attorneys
General, a former Secretary of Homeland Security, and a variety of
other officials who have had positions of responsibility in previous
administrations who believe that the Smith-Amash amendment would be
detrimental to our effort against terrorists, to say that those
arguments are somehow silly or foolish I think really demeans past
administrations.
{time} 1520
It is not actually fitting for this sort of debate. I understand that
emotions can run high when we talk about these issues, and there are
serious issues to be discussed, some difficult problems and some clear
differences. But I hope that in the future the nature of the debate is
elevated somewhat beyond calling former distinguished officials names.
And let me make one other point. One of the key problems that many of
us have with the Smith-Amash amendment is that it would bestow upon
illegal aliens who come to this country to carry out terrorist attacks,
it would bestow upon them full constitutional rights. That means
basically, as soon as a member of al Qaeda sets foot on American soil,
the first thing he hears after ``you are under arrest'' is you have the
right to remain silent. You have the right to be provided an attorney.
And if you can't afford one, an attorney will be provided to you.
Now, there may be differences about how we should treat illegal
aliens who come here as members of al Qaeda to conduct terrorist
attacks. But I think the vast majority of people in this body and
around the country do not think telling them they have the right to
remain silent, as the first thing they hear, is a wise thing.
So as you go through the arguments, and I would encourage Members of
the House to read the letter themselves. I would encourage Members of
the House to look at today's Wall Street Journal editorial. I would
encourage Members of the House to look at the Heritage Foundation entry
today on their Web site, to look how significant these issues are, how
the Smith-Amash amendment would undermine our ability to defend our
people, and how it is unfair to characterize concerns expressed by a
dozen or eight to 10 former national security officials as somehow
foolish or silly.
I think, Mr. Chairman, that we can do better with that.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment, as modified,
offered by the gentleman from California (Mr. McKeon).
The amendment, as modified, was agreed to.

amendment no. 16 offered by Ms. Hayworth of New York
At the end of subtitle C of title III, add the following
new section:
SEC. 3__. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OF
COMMERCIALLY-AVAILABLE ACTIVITIES BY DEPARTMENT
OF DEFENSE CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) our Nation's economic strength is characterized by
individual freedom and the competitive enterprise system, and
as such, the Federal Government should not compete with its
citizens and private enterprise;
(2) in recognition of this policy, the Government should
rely on commercially available sources to provide commercial
products and services and should not start or carry on any
activity to provide a commercial product or service if the
product or service can be procured more economically from a
commercial source;
(3) this policy conforms with Department of Defense Total
Force Management procedures aimed at improving total manpower
requirements, determinations, and planning to facilitate
decisions regarding which sector
[[Page H3000]]
(military, civilian, or contractor personnel) should perform
each requirement; and
(4) the Department of Defense should not convert the
performance of any function from performance by a contractor
to performance by Department of Defense civilian employees
unless the function is inherently governmental in nature or
the conversion is necessary to comply with section 129a of
title 10, United States Code, as amended by this Act.
(b) Definition of Inherently Governmental.--In this
section, the term ``inherently governmental'' has the meaning
given that term in section 5(2) of the Federal Activities
Inventory Reform Act of 1998 (Public Law 105 270; 112 Stat.
2384; 31 U.S.C. 501 note).
amendment no. 21 offered by ms. pingree of maine
At the end of subtitle H of title V, add the following new
section:
SEC. 584. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON MILITARY SEXUAL TRAUMA.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Department of Defense conducted a survey of members
of the Armed Forces serving on active duty that revealed that
only 13.5 percent of such members reported incidents of
sexual assault, which means that more than 19,000 incidents
of sexual assault of members of the Armed Forces actually
occurred in 2010 alone.
(2) Despite attempts, the Department of Defense has failed
to address the chronic under reporting of incidents of sexual
assault and harassment, as by the Department's own estimates,
86 percent of sexual assaults went unreported in 2010.
(3) Sexual assault in the military is an ongoing problem
leading many victims to seek help after separation from the
Armed Forces from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
(4) About 1 in 5 women and 1 in 100 men seen in Veterans
Health Administration respond ``Yes'' when screened for
military sexual trauma.
(5) Among users of healthcare provided by the Department of
Veterans Affairs, medical record data indicates that
diagnoses of post-traumatic stress disorder and other anxiety
disorders, depression and other mood disorders, and substance
use disorders are most frequently associated with military
sexual trauma.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Secretary of Veterans Affairs should expand efforts
to raise awareness about military sexual trauma and the
treatment and services that the Department provides to
victims; and
(2) in light of the fact that the available data shows an
overwhelming number of military sexual trauma claims go
unreported within the Department of Defense, making it very
difficult for veterans to show proof of the assault when
filing claims with the Department of Veterans Affairs for
post-traumatic stress disorder and other mental health
conditions caused by military sexual trauma, the Secretary of
Veterans Affairs should review the disability process to
ensure that victims of military sexual trauma who file claims
for service connection do not face unnecessary or overly
burdensome requirements in order to claim disability benefits
with the Department.
amendment no. 23 offered by mr. bishop of new york
SEC. 5__. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE RECOVERY OF THE
REMAINS OF CERTAIN MEMBERS OF THE ARMED FORCES
KILLED IN THURSTON ISLAND, ANTARCTICA.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Commencing August 26, 1946, though late February 1947
the United States Navy Antarctic Developments Program Task
Force 68, codenamed ``Operation Highjump'' initiated and
undertook the largest ever-to-this-date exploration of the
Antarctic continent.
(2) The primary mission of the Task Force 68 organized by
Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd Jr. USN, (Ret) and led by Rear
Admiral Richard H. Cruzen, USN, was to do the following:
(A) Establish the Antarctic research base Little America
IV.
(B) In the defense of the United States of America from
possible hostile aggression from abroad - to train personnel
test equipment, develop techniques for establishing,
maintaining and utilizing air bases on ice, with
applicability comparable to interior Greenland, where
conditions are similar to those of the Antarctic.
(C) Map and photograph a full two-thirds of the Antarctic
Continent during the classified, hazardous duty/volunteer-
only operation involving 4700 sailors, 23 aircraft and 13
ships including the first submarine the U.S.S. Sennet, and
the aircraft carrier the U.S.S. Philippine Sea, brought to
the edge of the ice pack to launch (6) Navy ski-equipped,
rocket-assisted R4Ds.
(D) Consolidate and extend United States sovereignty over
the largest practicable area of the Antarctic continent.
(E) Determine the feasibility of establishing, maintaining
and utilizing bases in the Antarctic and investigating
possible base sites.
(3) While on a hazardous duty/all volunteer mission vital
to the interests of National Security and while over the
eastern Antarctica coastline known as the Phantom Coast, the
PBM-5 Martin Mariner ``Flying Boat'' ``George 1'' entered a
whiteout over Thurston Island. As the pilot attempted to
climb, the aircraft grazed the glacier's ridgeline and
exploded within 5 seconds instantly killing Ensign Maxwell
Lopez, Navigator and Wendell ``Bud'' Hendersin, Aviation
Machinists Mate 1st Class while Frederick Williams, Aviation
Radioman 1st Class died several hours later. Six other
crewmen survived including the Captain of the ``George 1's''
seaplane tender U.S.S. Pine Island.
(4) The bodies of the dead were protected from the
desecration of Antarctic scavenging birds (Skuas) by the
surviving crew wrapping the bodies and temporarily burying
the men under the starboard wing engine nacelle.
(5) Rescue requirements of the ``George-1'' survivors
forced the abandonment of their crewmates' bodies.
(6) Conditions prior to the departure of Task Force 68
precluded a return to the area to the recover the bodies.
(7) For nearly 60 years Navy promised the families that
they would recover the men: ``If the safety, logistical, and
operational prerequisites allow a mission in the future,
every effort will be made to bring our sailors home.''.
(8) The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command twice offered to
recover the bodies of this crew for Navy.
(9) A 2004 NASA ground penetrating radar overflight
commissioned by Navy relocated the crash site three miles
from its crash position.
(10) The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command offered to
underwrite the cost of an aerial ground penetrating radar
(GPR) survey of the crash site area by NASA.
(11) The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command studied the
recovery with the recognized recovery authorities and
national scientists and determined that the recovery is only
``medium risk''.
(12) National Science Foundation and scientists from the
University of Texas, Austin, regularly visit the island.
(13) The crash site is classified as a ``perishable site'',
meaning a glacier that will calve into the Bellingshausen
Sea.
(14) The National Science Foundation maintains a presence
in area - of the Pine Island Glacier.
(15) The National Science Foundation Director of Polar
Operations will assist and provide assets for the recovery
upon the request of Congress.

the recovery of 3 WWII air crewmen from similar circumstances
in Greenland.
(17) On Memorial Day, May 25, 2009, President Barak Obama
declared: ``. . .the support of our veterans is a sacred
trust. . .we need to serve them as they have served us. .
.that means bringing home all our POWs and MIAs. . .''.
(18) The policies and laws of the United States of America
require that our armed service personnel be repatriated.
(19) The fullest possible accounting of United States
fallen military personnel means repatriating living American
POWs and MIAs, accounting for, identifying, and recovering
the remains of military personnel who were killed in the line
of duty, or providing convincing evidence as to why such a
repatriation, accounting, identification, or recovery is not
possible.
(20) It is the responsibility of the Federal Government to
return to the United States for proper burial and respect all
members of the Armed Forces killed in the line of duty who
lie in lost graves.
(b) Sense of Congress.--In light of the findings under
subsection (a), Congress--
(1) reaffirms its support for the recovery and return to
the United States, the remains and bodies of all members of
the Armed Forces killed in the line of duty, and for the
efforts by the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command to recover
the remains of members of the Armed Forces from all wars,
conflicts and missions;
(2) recognizes the courage and sacrifice of all members of
the Armed Forces who participated in Operation Highjump and
all missions vital to the national security of the United
States of America;
(3) acknowledges the dedicated research and efforts by the
US Geological Survey, the National Science Foundation, the
Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command, the Fallen American
Veterans Foundation and all persons and organizations to
identify, locate, and advocate for, from their temporary
Antarctic grave, the recovery of the well-preserved frozen
bodies of Ensign Maxwell Lopez, Naval Aviator, Frederick
Williams, Aviation Machinist's Mate 1ST Class, Wendell
Hendersin, Aviation Radioman 1ST Class of the ``George 1''
explosion and crash; and
(4) encourages the Department of Defense to review the
facts, research and to pursue new efforts to undertake all
feasible efforts to recover, identify, and return the well-
preserved frozen bodies of the ``George 1'' crew from
Antarctica's Thurston Island.

amendment no. 40 offered by mr. bishop of new york
At the end of title X, add the following new section:
SEC. 1084. THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES HONORS.
(a) Findings.--The House of Representatives finds the
following:
(1) The spread of warfare across Europe and Asia led to the
establishment on May 20, 1941, of the United States Office of
Civilian Defense by Executive Order 8757 of President
Franklin D. Roosevelt, to ``assure effective coordination of
Federal relations with State and local governments engaged in
defense activities, to provide for necessary cooperation with
States and local governments in respect to measures for
adequate protection of the civilian population in emergency
periods, to facilitate constructive civilian participation in
the defense program, and to sustain national morale''.
(2) The December 7, 1941, attack by the Empire of Japan on
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, precipitated the entry of the United
States into the worldwide conflict and signaled a new era of
warfare that demanded new efforts to protect the people of
the United States from airborne assault by an overseas enemy.
(3) In response to this new threat, the United States
Office of Civilian Defense mobilized millions of volunteers
to participate in efforts to enhance the preparedness of the
United States in case of attack, including fire protection,
communication and logistics, construction of bomb shelters,
and air raid blackout drills.
(4) Thousands of Americans unable to serve in the United
States Armed Forces volunteered their service as Air Raid
Wardens in communities across the United States during World
War II, contributing to America's defense against potential
enemy assault and the ultimate victory of the Allied nation.
(5) A training manual distributed to Air Raid Wardens
during World War II noted that ``In the system of civilian
defense, the Air Raid Warden occupies the key position. He is
the field officer under whose supervision the efforts of the
civilian population are directed in the tremendous task of
effective defense. Through the Air Raid Wardens, civilian
activity is coordinated with that of the police and fire
departments and other vital services.''
(6) Training manuals distributed to Air Raid Wardens
included ``I am an Air Raid Warden'', by Frank W. Atherton,
Chief Air Raid Warden, 1st District, United States Citizens'
Defense Corps of Michigan, which read, in part that ``I am an
Air Raid Warden. My country, my state and my community have
given me many pleasant and fruitful years and now in time of
trouble I feel that it is my duty to do my part in the work
assigned to me in helping to reduce to a minimum any harm
that may come from without or within.''
(7) Tony Pastor and His Orchestra released a song in 1942,
titled ``Obey Your Air Raid Warden'', which was widely
distributed as a public service announcement and contained
the following lyrics: ``One, be calm. Two, get under shelter.
Three, don't run. Obey your air-raid warden. Four, stay home.
Five, keep off the highway. Six, don't phone. Obey your air-
raid warden. There are rules that you should know, What to do
and where to go, When you hear the sirens blow, Stop, look,
and listen. Seven, don't smoke. Eight, help all the kiddies.
Most of all, obey your air-raid warden. Stop, look, and
listen. Dim the lights, Wait for information, Most of all,
obey your air-raid warden. Stop the panic, Don't get in a
huff, Our aim today is to call their bluff. Follow these
rules and that is enough. Obey your air-raid warden.''
(b) The House of Representatives Honors.--The House of
Representatives encourages surviving Air Raid Wardens and
other volunteers of the United States Office of Civilian
Defense during the World War II to record and permanently
preserve stories of their service for future generations.

The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from California (Mr. McKeon) and the gentleman from Washington (Mr.
Smith) each will control 10 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from California.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I urge the Committee to adopt the
amendments en bloc, all of which have been examined by both the
majority and the minority.
Mr. Chair, I yield, at this time, 1 minute to the gentleman from
California (Mr. Gallegly).
Mr. GALLEGLY. I want to thank Chairman McKeon and also Ranking Member
Smith for all their work in putting this bill together.
My amendment, which is included in the en bloc, will address the
repercussions of the expansion of sea otters into the southern
California coastal waters. With the official termination of the sea
otter containment zone by the Fish and Wildlife Service, sea otters
will begin to migrate south. As they do this, they will be invading
U.S. Naval testing areas.
While I fully support the recovery efforts of the sea otter, this
does not have to happen at the expense of our national security.
By creating military readiness areas around San Nicolas Island, San
Clemente Island, and the shores off Camp Pendleton, sea otters will be
able to expand their range. At the same time, the Navy will be able to
maintain
[[Page H3005]]
their incidental-taking exemption, which allows the Navy to continue
their operation off the southern California coast without harming our
national security.
Further, while implementing a plan for the recovery of sea otters,
the Fish and Wildlife Service will have to coordinate with the Navy and
the Department of Commerce on recovery efforts for other endangered and
threatened species, and the State of California can continue a viable
commercial harvest of fisheries.
The Acting CHAIR. The time of the gentleman has expired.
Mr. McKEON. I yield the gentleman an additional 30 seconds.
Mr. GALLEGLY. I urge support of this en bloc amendment.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself 1 minute.
Just to respond to the arguments of the gentleman from Texas, if an
al Qaeda terrorist comes to the U.S., whether they're an illegal alien
or not, frankly, we want them arrested, tried, and convicted. All we
want to do is make sure that they actually are a terrorist before we do
that, to have a process in place so that the President doesn't have
that power to simply lock somebody up without due process and a trial.
And then the argument about how we are bestowing upon illegal aliens
constitutional rights. I've got bad news for the gentleman from Texas.
We aren't bestowing anything. The United States Constitution bestows
upon them those rights.
The United States Constitution says any person in the U.S., not
citizen, not legal, illegal, it doesn't matter. So if he has a beef, he
has a beef with James Madison and everybody else who supported the
Constitution.
And we hear constantly from that side, strict interpretation, the
Constitution must be adhered to. The Constitution says any person, not
any lawful resident or any citizen. The United States Constitution
clearly triggers that. We're not creating anything. In fact, the
Gohmert amendment goes outside the Constitution by creating rights that
aren't contemplated in here, separating people in this country in terms
of who should get what rights. It's in the Constitution: any person.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chair, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Texas
(Mr. Thornberry).
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, I appreciate, again, the strong views
of the distinguished ranking member. I would just say there is a real
difference of opinion about to what extent U.S. constitutional rights,
which each of us, as citizens, are privileged to have, are bestowed
upon any illegal alien, as soon as they set foot in this country.
Now, there are places in the Constitution it says ``persons.'' There
are other places it talks about ``accused.'' But I would point back to
some of the very case law from the Supreme Court such as the Hamdan
decision, which references the differences in procedure that due
process requires for a citizen versus a noncitizen. It is not a clear-
cut thing to say that as soon as you set foot on this soil, then you
have the right to remain silent.
And the part that the gentleman--the other concern that many of us
have is when you say you've got the right to remain silent, that
prevents us from getting the intelligence, the information that
prevents the attack of your buddy, the guy next to you. That's got to
be factored in here too.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I would just point out that Mirandized or
not, nobody has to speak, and a ton of information has come out of
people after they were Mirandized.
With that, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr.
Lewis).
Mr. LEWIS of Georgia. Mr. Chairman, I want to thank the ranking
member for yielding.
I rise in strong support of the en bloc amendment which includes my
amendment. It requires the Secretary of Defense, the IRS, and Commerce
to calculate the total cost of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq to each
American taxpayer.
My amendment is about truth and transparency. Americans need to know
how their taxes are being spent so we can make informed decisions about
our budget. Even if you do not oppose war, don't you want to know what
it costs you, your children, your grandchildren, and your great
grandchildren?
For too long there has been a big, fat, blank check for war. We need
to be honest with ourselves. We need to be honest with each other.
Mr. Chairman, I hope all of my colleagues will support the Lewis
amendment in this en bloc package.
{time} 1530
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, at this time, I yield 2 minutes to the
gentlewoman from California (Mrs. Bono Mack) for the purpose of a
colloquy.
Mrs. BONO MACK. I thank the gentleman for this colloquy. I would like
to first thank him, my good friend from California, for his leadership
and for his hard work in crafting this bill in support of our men and
women in the military.
Mr. Chairman, as you know, these men and women sacrifice their lives
to guarantee our safety. In return, it is our responsibility to provide
the best possible care for them. Specifically, I am returning to an
issue of growing importance to our country, and that is protecting our
military men and women from the detrimental effects of prescription
drug misuse. Because of the physical and emotional hardships we place
on our troops, they are at an increased risk for using prescription
drugs and, therefore, of misusing prescription drugs.
I was encouraged to see the recommendations made by the Pain
Management Task Force at DOD to mitigate the risk of prescription drug
abuses and dependence in pain patients, and I would like to work with
you, Mr. Chairman, and the committee to ensure that the Department of
Defense and the Veterans Administration adopt these recommendations as
quickly as possible.
Mr. Chairman, I thank you again for your help, and I look forward to
working with you as the National Defense Authorization Act moves into
conference.
I yield to the gentleman from California.
Mr. McKEON. I do agree that protecting our men and women in the
military from the detrimental effects of prescription drug misuse,
especially protecting our combat-wounded servicemembers, is of vital
importance.
As the gentlelady knows, the committee report of H.R. 4310 includes
an item of special interest that expresses the support for substance
abuse treatment programs within the military services and that
encourages the Department of Defense to pursue research aimed at
developing new treatments to help our troops who are struggling with
the devastating problem.
I will be happy to work with the gentlewoman from California to
consider the appropriate measures to address this critical issue.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
Oregon (Mr. Blumenauer).
Mr. BLUMENAUER. I appreciate the gentleman.
As cofounder of the bipartisan Working Group on Export Controls, I
want to thank my colleagues for their hard work to address this system,
which was created in the midst of the Cold War but remained relatively
unchanged despite the amazing advance of technology, which has rendered
much of it obsolete.
We have an opportunity for reform by supporting the administration's
initiatives to deliver greater clarity and efficiency. I think your
amendment makes progress.
I have three concerns:
Provisions, first of all, that deal with the requirement the
administration may be called upon to specify--individually--hundreds of
thousands of parts that will be transferred, a requirement that may be
impossible to comply with;
The amendment includes seven new reporting requirements of little use
but taking valuable time away from enforcement;
And finally, the amendment would remove the President's existing
authority, in place since 1998, to waive restriction on satellite
exports, limiting his ability to conduct foreign policy.
I commend the good work that is in the bill, and hope that these
provisions can be addressed as the legislation moves forward.
Mr. McKEON. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. At this time, I yield 1 minute to the
gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Visclosky).
[[Page H3006]]
Mr. VISCLOSKY. I appreciate the gentleman for yielding.
I rise to express my concern that an amendment offered by Mr. Turner
that is contained in the en bloc amendments does not cure provisions in
the underlying bill that weaken the enforcement of worker health and
safety and that create a self-regulation regime for contractors at the
National Nuclear Security Administration, which, I believe, will place
profit above safety. Section 3115 would move the enforcement of worker
health and safety from DOE's Office of Health, Safety and Security to
the National Nuclear Security Administration.
Additionally, the legislation restricts the oversight authority of
the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, which is a board that has
played a vital role in independently addressing worker safety and
whistleblower issues at large DOE projects.
To support my position, I would quote from this year's House
Committee on Appropriations report accompanying the fiscal year 2013
energy and water bill:
The committee believes that having an independent
assessment capability at the Department is important and
supports the role of HSS.
Mr. McKEON. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 1 minute to the gentlelady from
Maine (Ms. Pingree).
Ms. PINGREE of Maine. I thank the ranking member for yielding his
time.
Mr. Chairman, the amendment I am sponsoring today sends a loud and
clear message to the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs.
It sends a message that we recognize that the problem of sexual
assault in the military is real and significant. It sends a message
that the VA should live up to its promise and remove the barriers to
benefits for victims. But, most importantly, it sends a message to the
survivors.
The men and women I have met with who volunteered to serve were
dedicating their lives to military careers when they suddenly found out
their worlds were crashing in on them when they became victims of
sexual assault. It sends a message to them that we hear them, that we
recognize the pain and the injustice they have suffered and that we
will not stand for it.
I met with Secretary Panetta recently, and I know he understands this
problem and is committed to changing the culture, but we cannot call
that good enough. We need to say, in no uncertain terms, that we will
not allow the men and women who wear the uniform to become victims of
sexual assault and that we will not forget those who waited too long
for the benefits they deserve.
Mr. McKEON. May I inquire as to how much time we have remaining?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Washington has 5 minutes
remaining. The gentleman from California has 6\1/4\ minutes remaining.
Mr. McKEON. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the
gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Murphy).
Mr. MURPHY of Connecticut. I thank the ranking member.
I rise today to support my amendment, No. 97, originally introduced
as the American Jobs Matter Act, that is included in this en bloc
package. This amendment will finally allow American manufacturers to
compete fairly for Department of Defense contracts.
My State, which has built submarines for the Navy and has supplied
our Armed Forces for generations, has lost about 130,000 manufacturing
jobs in the last 20 years, and this country has lost about 6 million.
At the same time, the Department of Defense, which is the largest
purchaser of goods in the world, has been aggressively outsourcing work
to foreign firms.
Instead of finding ways to get around the Buy America law, the DOD
should be doing more to help protect manufacturing jobs here at home.
When we lose the capacity to produce an item that our military needs,
we put ourselves at risk, and we also lose jobs.
This amendment simply allows for the Federal Government to consider
the number of jobs being created here in the United States as a part of
a bid for U.S. defense work. Frankly, most of my constituents and our
constituents probably think this already happens, but this is an
important amendment for job creation and also for U.S. national
security.
I would like to thank Chairman McKeon and Ranking Member Smith for
their willingness to work together on this issue.
Mr. McKEON. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 1 minute to the gentlelady from
California (Ms. Chu).
Ms. CHU. I have a personal reason for offering this amendment. My
nephew was a victim of military hazing, and it killed him.
Harry Lew was serving in the Marines in Afghanistan when his peers
ordered him to dig a foxhole, to do push-ups, like crunches and planks,
with his heavy, full body armor and a 25-pound sandbag. They stomped,
kicked, and punched him, and poured the entire contents of the sandbag
onto his face and in his mouth. It lasted a full 3 hours and 20
minutes. Twenty minutes later, he committed suicide.
I thank Chairmen McKeon and Wilson and Ranking Member Smith because
this bill takes the most significant steps to protect servicemembers
from hazing--ever.
My amendment adds a GAO report so we can have an objective analysis
of the DOD's antihazing policies. It also adds an annual report to
Congress on what the DOD is doing to prevent hazing so that we can
ensure there is real accountability.
Mr. McKEON. We have no further requests for time, so I continue to
reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. I encourage all Members to support the en bloc
amendments, and I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. MANZULLO. Mr. Chair, this amendment has been a long time in
coming. Congress overreacted back in 1998 to move export licensing
decisions for commercial communication satellites (COMSATs) to the
highly restrictive munitions list. As a result, worldwide market share
for U.S.-made commercial communications satellites dropped from 75
percent to an average of just 44 percent over the past 13 years. As a
result, the Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) estimated last
January that U.S. manufacturers lost $21 billion in satellite revenue
from 1999 to 2009, costing about 9,000 direct jobs annually because of
treating exports of COMSATs, along with satellite parts and components,
like military weaponry.
In addition, this Congressional overreaction harmed our national
security because it hurt our U.S. space industrial base, particularly
component manufacturers. These firms became less globally competitive
because stringent export controls provide a perverse incentive to
foreign satellite makers to design out U.S. parts. Thus, as these U.S.
component makers struggle to sell their product in the commercial
marketplace, they become less able to meet the national security needs
of the U.S. government. A 2011 analysis of the U.S. space industrial
base by the respected Tauri Group documented that out of 135 U.S. space
hardware manufacturers, 28 technology areas are at some risk of
disappearing from our shores because of limited suppliers.
The so-called ``Section 1248'' report recently released to Congress
by the Departments of Defense and State on the risk assessment of U.S.
space export control policy also documented that 95.7 percent of all
export licenses for satellite parts and components in 2011 going to
partners and allies were approved with no additional provisos or
restrictions. Four percent were approved with conditions. Only 0.3
percent--or a total of six licenses--was denied. These 4.3 percent of
applications will still be captured under the new satellite export
licensing system proposed by the Administration. In other words, we
waste valuable time and resources by processing licenses for satellite
parts and components that involve little or no national security risk.
The current licensing system detracts from efforts to stop true threats
to our national security.
As a long time leader and proponent of sensible export control reform
within the confines of protecting national security, I commend this
bipartisan amendment. This proposal would have never come together
without the support of the ranking Democratic Member of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee, Howard Berman, along with my Chairman,
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. I want to particularly thank Representative Berman
for asking me to be the principle Republican co-sponsor of the
Safeguarding United States Satellite Leadership and Security Act of
2011 (H.R. 3288) that forms the underlying basis for this amendment.
However, this amendment isn't perfect. Some stakeholders have raised
concerns
[[Page H3007]]
about the wording of certain phrases in this amendment and the plethora
of reports it requires. Some of the concerns may be overblown but I am
optimistic that these issues can be worked out with further tweaks to
the language. I pledge my support and effort to help further ameliorate
these concerns as the NDAA moves through the legislation process.
Again, Mr. Chair, I urge my colleagues to support this bipartisan
compromise and vote for the first en bloc manager's amendment.
Mr. LEWIS of Georgia. Mr. Chair, I rise in strong support of the en
bloc amendment, which includes my amendment. It requires the Secretary
of Defense, the IRS, and Commerce to calculate the total cost of the
wars in Afghanistan and Iraq to each American taxpayer.
My amendment is about truth and transparency. Americans need to know
how their taxes are being spent, so we can make informed decisions
about our budget.
Even if you do not oppose war, don't you want to know what it costs
you, your children, your grandchildren, and your great-grandchildren?
For too long, there has been a big, fat blank check for war. We need
to be honest with ourselves. We need to be honest with each other.
Mr. Chair, I hope all of my colleagues will support the Lewis
amendment and this en bloc package.
Mr. PETRI. Mr. Chair, I urge my colleagues to join me and
Representative Kind in correcting a government error and ending
bureaucratic impediments that are keeping soldiers from receiving their
earned benefits.
Quite simply, the Petri-Kind amendment, which is included in this en
bloc amendment, would pay approximately 575 National Guardsmen for the
vacation days they earned through the Post Deployment Mobilization
Respite Absence program that they were unable to take after their last
deployment due to government error. Some have not been reimbursed for
as long as five years.
The problem occurred when the Defense Department did not issue the
guidelines for calculating this benefit until several months after it
went into effect. Some soldiers demobilizing during this time did not
have these additional days added to their leave. Many of them have
since retired or are not deploying again and are unable to use their
earned vacation days.
This effort is a national problem, affecting Army National Guardsmen
in 34 states. Unfortunately, soldiers in Wisconsin are affected more
than those in any other state with 80 Wisconsin Army National Guardsmen
impacted, most of whom are members of the 1157th Transportation Company
based in Oshkosh. As I speak, this unit is once again serving overseas
after deploying to Afghanistan just last month. I thank the entire
Wisconsin delegation for their support of this amendment, as well as
the National Guard Association of the United States.
This amendment is similar to Representative Kline's bill, H.R. 4045,
which passed by voice vote in the House Tuesday night to pay a much
larger group of soldiers who also did not receive the pay they were
promised.
Mr. Chair, we have a moral obligation to ensure that our men and
women serving in the military receive the benefits they are due. I
appreciate the support give to this amendment by the House Armed
Services Committee and urge it's passing by the entire House.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I rise to express my concerns with an
amendment offered by Mr. Turner contained in the en bloc amendment. I
do not believe the Turner Amendment cures provisions of the underlying
bill that weaken enforcement of worker health and safety, and create a
self regulation regime for contractors at the National Nuclear Security
Administration (NNSA). I believe these provisions place profit above
safety.
Specifically, Section 3115 of H.R. 4310 would move enforcement of
worker health and safety from Department of Energy's Office of Health,
Safety and Security (HSS) to NNSA. Taking away the independent
oversight that HSS provides at NNSA facilities is a mistake.
The House Committee on Appropriations in its report for the Fiscal
Year 2013 Energy and Water bill was very clear on the value of HHS. It
states, ``The Committee believes that having an independent assessment
capability at the Department is important and supports the role of HSS
in the areas of nuclear safety, worker safety and health, safeguards
and security, cyber security and emergency management. The Committee
agrees that the responsibility for protecting workers, the public, the
environment, and national security assets rests with the Department's
line management organizations. However, it is critical that the
Department preserve the HSS authority to independently assess
Departmental compliance and performance and to have access to and
cooperation from all Departmental programs.''
Additionally, the legislation restricts the oversight authority of
the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board (DNFSB), a board that has
played a vital role in independently addressing worker safety and
whistle blower issues at large DOE projects. Again, the Fiscal Year
2013 Energy and Water report was unambiguous in expressing its support
for DNFSB. It states, ``The Committee expects the DNFSB to continue to
play a significant role in scrutinizing the Department's safety and
security activities, including the reform initiatives underway in the
Department that may impact projects under its jurisdiction.''
Further, the requirement that NNSA move towards ``performance-based
oversight'' is misguided and will create a dangerous contractor self-
regulation regime. While I do not believe that contractors will not
take worker safety seriously, I do stand by the old adage that
independent oversight is always more honest and rigid than self-
evaluation.
Mr. HOLT. Mr. Chair, I rise in strong support of this amendment. Just
this month, we learned from a leaked Air Force Instruction on
intelligence activities that their drones ``incidentally'' collect
imagery of ``US persons or private property without consent'' during
the course of normal training operations. Neither I nor Mr. Landry
intend to prevent Department elements charged with training UAV
operators from being able to do their jobs. At the same time, we have a
responsibility to ensure that data that is collected is not misused.
That is precisely what Mr. Landry is trying to do today, and I am
pleased to join him this effort.
This amendment will have no impact on the training activities of our
unmanned aerial vehicle operators. What it will do is ensure that any
imagery of American citizens, their homes, business, etc. that is
collected cannot be used in any court proceeding in the absence of a
judicial warrant issued on the basis of probable cause. I commend my
colleague from Louisiana from offering this amendment, and I urge my
colleagues to join me in supporting it.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chair, I rise to speak on the amendment
by Mr. Turner that addresses safety at defense nuclear facilities, that
is considered in this en-block package.
Much reckless damage has been done in this bill that weakens safety
for workers at defense nuclear facilities and for the public.
Among other changes, this hill blocks independent oversight by the
Department of Energy and weakens the capacity of the Defense Nuclear
Facilities Safety Board. This oversight is critical to keeping people
safe, and we should not be cutting corners on safety.
These changes have profound implications and risk imperiling the
safety and lives of worker and the public.
It also transfers responsibility for safety to the National Nuclear
Security Administrator and to contractors, at a time when NNSA's
undivided attention should be focused on maintaining a safe, secure and
reliable nuclear deterrent and on the pressing need to make much-needed
progress on nuclear nonproliferation to reduce the risk of nuclear
terrorism.
For these reasons, Mr. Miller, Mr. Visclosky, Ms. Sanchez, Mr. Waxman
and I submitted two amendments to undo some of the damage that is done
in this bill, and that would have preserved strong safety standards and
independent oversight.
My amendment would have restored the authority of the Secretary of
Energy over the nuclear weapons complex and nonproliferation programs,
whose control has been improperly severed without justification in this
bill.
However, the Rules Committee did not make these amendments in order,
and so regrettably we are prevented from having this important debate
on an issue that affects thousands of Americans who work or live near
defense nuclear sites.
Going forward, I will work with the Senate in conference to reverse
many of these changes, to improve the outcome in our final bill.
Specifically with regard to the amendment by Mr. Turner in this
package, it makes several important improvements but does not go far
enough and fail to fix significant problems in the bill.
(1) This amendment does not specifically prohibit a reduction in the
safety standards, both nuclear and non-nuclear, compared to the
standards we have today for defense nuclear facilities. Nonnuclear
safety standards, such as fire protection, quality assurance, chemical,
are also important to the safety of defense nuclear facilities.
(2) This amendment reaffirms that the decision on safety standards
should be made by the Administrator for Nuclear Security, rather than
by the Secretary of Energy and the Dept of Energy's Office of Health,
Safety and Security, which would provide independent oversight of NNSA
and the nuclear weapons complex health and safety and security
operations.
(3) The core concept of risk and cost-benefit should not be an
element of adequate protection. Inserting cost requirements muddles the
requirements for safety. At this time, cost is not an element of
adequate protection for commercial nuclear power or for DOE's defense
nuclear facilities. It also forces the Defense Nuclear Facilities
Safety Board to pre-
[[Page H3008]]
judge NNSA's action and decisions in responding to safety concerns,
rather than allowing the Board to focus on identifying and raising
safety concerns.
(4) This requirement places obstacles in the Board's path and will
make it more difficult to ensure adequate protection of public and
worker safety.
(5) These provisions would allow inconsistent safety standards.
I am deeply concerned about these changes and hope to work with my
colleagues to remedy the measures that unnecessarily put workers and
the public at risk.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendments en bloc offered
by the gentleman from California (Mr. McKeon).
The en bloc amendments were agreed to.

Amendment No. 3 Offered by Mr. Kucinich
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 3
printed in House Report 112 485.
Mr. KUCINICH. I have an amendment at the desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of subtitle D of title XII of division A of the
bill, add the following:
SEC. 12XX. LIMITATION ON DEPLOYMENTS FOR NATO MISSIONS.
(a) Limitation.--Beginning on the date of the enactment of
this Act, the deployment of a unit or individual of the
United States Armed Forces in support of a North Atlantic
Treaty Organization mission may be made only after express
statutory authorization has been obtained from Congress for
such deployment.
(b) Deployment Defined.--In this section, the term
``deployment'' has the meaning given that term in subsection
991(b) of title 10, United States Code.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from Ohio (Mr. Kucinich) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Ohio.
Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Chair, I yield myself 1 minute.
The administration's use of signature strikes raises the risk to
innocent civilians or individuals who have had no relationship to
attacks on the United States.
We know that the U.S. has made mistakes in who has been at the
receiving end of its drone-strike program, and this was when we knew
the identity of the person being targeted. A recent report by the
Bureau of Investigative Journalism estimates that at least 2,292 people
have been killed by U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan since 2004. The
bureau estimates that, of that number, over 350 are civilians. A July
2009 Brookings Institution report stated 10 civilians die for every one
suspected militant from U.S. drone strikes.
Yet another study by the New America Foundation concluded that out of
the 114 drone attacks in Pakistan, at least 32 percent of those killed
by the strikes were civilians. Again, that was before we allowed drone
strikes based only on signature behaviors.
We cannot deny that our drone strikes have resulted in the death of
innocent people.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, I rise to claim the time in opposition.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Texas is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, at this time I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to
the distinguished ranking member, and I am glad to do so on an issue on
which we agree.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I thank the gentleman.
I rise in opposition to the amendment.
I think the gentleman raises a very legitimate point that the
exercise of strikes against terrorist targets does need a proper
oversight. There are a number of ways in which I think we can have
greater transparency in those decisions, frankly, whether they're
signature strikes or against individuals.
The bottom line is al Qaeda declared war against us in 1996. They are
actively prosecuting that war against us from a number of different
locations, many of which we don't have as much information as we would
like, but clearly in federally administered tribal areas of Pakistan
and Yemen and Somalia, they are organizing training camps and they are
actively pursuing us. Our Joint Special Operations Command is trying to
keep track of those networks and keep them from attacking us.
The ability to hit those training camps is an important part of
protecting us from terrorist attacks. As General McChrystal said: It
takes a network to beat a network. We need our network to have the
ability to stop Al Qaeda's network. They declared war against us. They
haven't changed their mind. It is still something that we need to be
able to adequately protect this country against. This amendment unduly
restricts our military's ability to protect this country.
Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Chair, I yield myself 30 seconds.
We're talking about the deaths of innocent people here. A recent
article published in The Washington Post revealed that the Central
Intelligence Agency and the Joint Special Operations Command have been
given new authority that allows them to fire upon targets based solely
on their so-called ``intelligence signatures,'' patterns of behavior
that are detected through signal intercepts, human sources, aerial
surveillance, and that indicated a presence of an important operative
plot against U.S. interests. But allowing CIA and JSOC to conduct drone
strikes without having to know the identity of the person they're
targeting is in stark contrast to targeted strikes against suspected
terrorists on lists maintained by the CIA and JSOC.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the
distinguished gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Andrews).
(Mr. ANDREWS asked and was given permission to revise and extend his
remarks.)
Mr. ANDREWS. I thank my friend.
I rise to respectfully disagree with the amendment offered by a
person for whom I have great respect. I know that he offers this
amendment because he certainly wants to avoid a situation where our
country arbitrarily takes innocent human life. I think he's right to
have that concern, and I think it's one that is widely held. I think
that the issue raised by this amendment is whether others can be
entrusted with striking that same balance or whether the Congress
should enact a unilateral prohibition against certain kinds of
activities.
When the decision-makers who operate these drone strikes make a
decision, they have to strike this balance between our moral obligation
to avoid arbitrary attacks on innocent people and our moral obligation
to defend our country. And I think that they are capable of striking
that balance, and I frankly think that a blanket prohibition against
the use of these strikes--except in circumstances where we know the
identity of the target--unduly restricts them in making that judgment.
I certainly understand and sympathize with the goal of this
amendment. But because I think it unduly restricts our options, I would
urge its defeat.
Mr. KUCINICH. I yield 2 minutes to the cosponsor of the amendment,
the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, Mr. Conyers of
Michigan.
Mr. CONYERS. I thank the author of the amendment, and I join with him
in it because, ladies and gentlemen, the administration policy up till
now has been quite clear: drones pursue specific individuals who appear
on a target list maintained by the CIA and initiate attacks only when
drone operators are confident that the individual being targeted is a
terrorist on that list.
What this amendment attempts to ensure is that the missile strikes
being used by the CIA or the Joint Special Operations Command are
targeting actual terrorists that pose a threat to our national security
and not against civilians who may look suspicious to a drone operator
operating thousands of miles away. What I am saying is merely that a
new and expanded drone policy that allows for indiscriminate missile
strikes against supposedly suspicious individuals obviously increases
the risk of civilian death and risks inflaming an already powerful
anti-American sentiment abroad. Ladies and gentlemen, this policy will
not make us any safer. It will do just the opposite.
I encourage my colleagues to support our amendment so that the
Congress ensures that accountability and a
[[Page H3009]]
measure of precision and due process are retained as critical
components of our country's drone policy.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Chair, I am prepared to close. I reserve the
balance of my time.
Mr. THORNBERRY. As a point of parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman,
who has the right to close on this amendment?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Texas has the right to close.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Further parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman. How much
time remains on our side?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Texas has 2\1/2\ minutes
remaining. The gentleman from Ohio has 1\1/2\ minutes remaining.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the distinguished
gentleman from Rhode Island, the ranking member of the Emerging Threats
and Capabilities Subcommittee.
(Mr. LANGEVIN asked and was given permission to revise and extend his
remarks.)
Mr. LANGEVIN. I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I appreciate
the gentleman from Ohio and the gentleman from Michigan for offering
this amendment; but unfortunately I must rise in opposition.
I certainly share their concerns, and I know of their good
intentions; and I certainly share the authors' concerns over civilian
casualties, and certainly even one civilian death is too many.
Mr. Chair, we should not jeopardize our men and women in uniform by
hamstringing their ability to engage when threatened or returning fire.
Certainly the Predators are incredibly powerful tools, and they need to
be used judiciously and appropriately. I believe that they are only
when necessary. The language here as it is written would threaten many
of the most urgent uses of remotely powered aircraft. For example, if
our troops are under fire from an unknown assailant or if an insurgent
is placing a bomb, this language, as I read it, would prohibit
targeting that individual.
Mr. Chairman, patterns of behavior are certainly appropriate
indicators and are vetted strenuously. John Brennan at the White House
has indicated and stated publicly that the drone-strike policy was
rooted in adherence to law, and indeed the authorization for use of
military force provides the President with the authority to ``use all
necessary and appropriate force.''
The Acting CHAIR. The time of the gentleman has expired.
Mr. THORNBERRY. I yield the gentleman another 15 seconds.
{time} 1550
Mr. LANGEVIN. I appreciate the gentleman yielding.
There are strict policies for how these tools can be used: there has
to be a significant threat to the United States; action could mitigate
or prevent an actual threat from materializing; capture is not feasible
or could put U.S. servicemen and -women in undue harm; and collateral
damage and harm to civilians is minimal. This strict criteria is what
can be used, and I think they are the tools that we need to preserve.
Mr. KUCINICH. Parliamentary inquiry.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Ohio will state his inquiry.
Mr. KUCINICH. As a matter of procedure, who has the right to close,
the sponsor of an amendment or the opponent of an amendment?
The Acting CHAIR. A manager of a measure who opposes an amendment
thereto has the right to close.
Mr. KUCINICH. I thank the Chair.
I am prepared to close. How much time do I have remaining, please?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Ohio has 1\1/2\ minutes
remaining.
Mr. KUCINICH. In the absence of transparency and accountability for
the drones program abroad, overreach is unchecked. The administration
refuses to release the legal justification for permitting so-called
``signature drone strikes.'' The administration refuses to disclose
whether and how there's any follow-up with the families of innocent
civilians who died from a drone strike. The administration refuses to
disclose whether civilian casualties are collected, tracked, and
analyzed.
Our amendment, the Conyers-Kucinich amendment, recognizes that
innocent civilians should not be collateral damage. It recognizes that
sending an unmanned plane to drop bombs without knowing the identity of
a target does not reflect American values. It recognizes that drones
bombing people of unknown identity will generate powerful and enduring
anti-American sentiment that prolongs and expands wars. It recognizes
that Congress did not give the President an unlimited and unchecked
power to expand our wars abroad, especially when it does not even
bother to give Congress the legal justification to do so.
It became clear that the authorization for the use of military force
is being interpreted, given carte blanche to circumvent Congress, and
we ought to put an end to it right now.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, this amendment raises a number of
concerns. It is a very strange thing, for example, to say in a war that
you have to know the name, rank, and serial number of the person that
you are about to shoot before you can even shoot him. And to put it a
little more in this context, the gentleman from Ohio's amendment would
say that if we see people making bombs down there that are going to be
used against our servicepeople, that we can't do anything about it,
that we've just got to watch them. And then even after the bomb
explodes, unless we know the identity--which is the language in the
amendment--unless we know the name of the person down there, we can't
do anything about it, with all of the technology that's available to
the United States.
And actually, it gets even worse. If we see al Qaeda members shooting
at our troops down there, if we don't know the identity or the name of
the people doing the shooting, then we can't do anything about it.
Surely that carries things far too far.
We can't debate in the open House all of the allegations that are
made in newspaper articles. What we can do is say what the National
Security Adviser or the President has said, that these sorts of
capabilities are only used pursuant to law, and they are only used
where there is a significant threat to the U.S., where action could
mitigate or prevent the threat, and that collateral damage or harm to
civilians is absolutely minimal. That helps protect our soldiers and
our country.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Kucinich).
The amendment was rejected.
Amendment No. 4 Offered by Mr. Rohrabacher
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 4
printed in House Report 112 485.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. I have an amendment at the desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of subtitle B of title XII of division A of the
bill, add the following:
SEC. 12XX. PROHIBITION ON AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FOR
ASSISTANCE FOR PAKISTAN.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, none of
the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act may be
used to provide assistance for Pakistan.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from California (Mr. Rohrabacher) and a Member opposed each will
control 5 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from California.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. Mr. Chairman, since 9/11, the United States has
given Pakistan about $22 billion. That money has served only to
embolden Pakistan's government to maintain the brutal repression of its
own people and to continue its blatant support for terrorist attacks on
its neighboring countries, as well as attacks on American troops in
nearby Afghanistan.
My amendment would cut off all aid in this bill designated for
Pakistan. It would end the charade that we are buying cooperation in
the ongoing struggle against terrorist forces in South Asia. Pakistan
isn't with us in a war against terrorism; they are at war with us.
Pakistan, at best, is a war profiteer, collecting a ransom by taxing
our military supply lines that pass through
[[Page H3010]]
their country, which, for the past 6 months, by the way, they have
closed to resupplying our forces in Afghanistan. They are laughing all
the way to the bank. Of course, the Pakistani people will never see any
of that money.
The corruption in Pakistan itself is reason not to give aid to them,
which they will then pilfer. Furthermore, they use their military power
to butcher the Balochs and others who don't want to be under their
corrupt thumb.
How can we forget this same Pakistani Government gave safe haven to
Osama bin Laden after he led the conspiracy that slaughtered 3,000
Americans on 9/11? After our SEALs went in to get him, the Pakistani
Government took the wreckage of our downed stealth helicopter and gave
it for study to Communist China, whom they refer to as their ``all-
weather friend.''
The Pakistani Government has gone so far as to arrest and imprison,
without trial, Dr. Afridi, the doctor who helped us gather the
intelligence that located Osama bin Laden in the nest that the
Pakistani Government had provided him right there in Pakistan. The
Pakistani Government threw him in jail and is talking about trying him
for treason for the good deed that he helped us in bringing to justice
the man who slaughtered 3,000 of our citizens. And we can continue to
give money to these people, even as we ignore the suffering of Dr.
Afridi, who is in prison now, languishing in prison? And all of us are
forgetting this hero?
We have lost almost 2,000 Americans defending our country as part of
Operation Enduring Freedom. Most of those deaths were due to Pakistani-
inspired and -supported insurgents.
How much more does the Pakistan Government have to do before we quit
giving them our money? They are playing us like fools while murdering
our soldiers. And, yes, we are acting like fools for giving them this
money despite that. We should have quit bankrolling this rotten regime
a long time ago. My amendment would do just that.
The Pakistan Government is a terrorist government that murders and
even attacks its own people, such as in Balochistan. It is a pro-
terrorist, radical Islamic clique that rules Pakistan. They don't
deserve one penny from us to help them in their dirty deeds.
I would ask for support from my colleagues. Let's finally stand up.
If we need an ally in that area, let's go to some people in that area
that want to be our friends, perhaps the Indians.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I rise in opposition to this amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from
Texas (Mr. Conaway).
Mr. CONAWAY. I appreciate the gentleman from Washington yielding me 2
minutes.
I strongly urge opposition to this amendment with some heavy heart
because some of the things that my good colleague has said may be
accurate; much of it is inflammatory and not accurate. But
nevertheless, I don't want to be seen as an apologist for Pakistan.
But by the same token, we have trimmed the amount of money subject to
this authorization and to this amendment by half. We have strengthened
the controls around that money to require Pakistan to certify to us, to
Secretary Panetta, that, in fact, this money is being spent in the
fight against counterterrorism.
{time} 1600
We will have additional amendments on floor this afternoon that don't
have any opposition, which will further strengthen that certification
process. And by restricting all funds, under the DOD position, simply
plays into the bad guys' hands in Pakistan. It will give them no
incentives in which to work with us and it will further their strength
and resolve to close the cross-border, overland passage of U.S.
military goods to assist us with the fight in Afghanistan.
While my good colleague has much greater experience with some of
those folks in that part of the world than I do, nevertheless, I stand
in opposition to his amendment. It is a meat cleaver when we ought to
be going at it the way we've done it--by trimming the money back,
putting restrictions on that money that will force the Pakistanis in
order to get it. And, by the way, they have not gotten money from DOD
since June of 2010.
So while the comments that he's made might apply to all funding for
the State Department and everything else, it only applies to Department
of Defense money. We've not given them money since June of 2010. We
have adequate protections in the bill this time and will strengthen
those protections later on in the debate in the votes this afternoon.
I stand in opposition to the amendment.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 1 minute to the gentlelady from
Texas (Ms. Jackson Lee).
Ms. JACKSON LEE of Texas. I thank the gentleman. And certainly I've
worked with the gentleman from California on a number of issues, and I
rise in vigorous opposition to this amendment as the cochairman and
founder of the Pakistan Caucus. And let me frame the reason.
First of all, we have a very responsible and sizable Pakistani
American community that champions the idea of a democratic and
economically stable Pakistan. It was only a few years ago that Benazir
Bhutto was assassinated. However, the government that has carried on,
although living in a difficult neighborhood and having difficult
challenges, is a result of her efforts to try to bring democracy to
Pakistan.
The people of Pakistan live in a very difficult neighborhood, and if
we abandon this assistance--obviously, defense assistance--we abandon
the people of Pakistan. We abandon those who want an education and
economic stability. We abandon those soldiers in the Pakistani military
who have fallen in battle fighting against terrorists. We will abandon
those who have been in the Swat Valley. We will abandon those who have
been in the mountains of Pakistan.
The Acting CHAIR. The time of the gentlewoman has expired.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield the gentlewoman an additional 20
seconds.
Ms. JACKSON LEE of Texas. It will abandon those who are fighting for
democracy, with the Pakistani President heading to participate in NATO
with Ambassador Sherry Rehman here, who interacts with Members of
Congress.
Let me tell the American people, Pakistan is an effective ally with
challenges, and we should not deny them the opportunity to correct and
turn the corner. I ask my colleagues to recognize the value of
Pakistan's alliance. It is better to be engaged than to not be engaged.
Let us oppose this amendment. It is the wrong direction to go.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Texas
(Mr. Thornberry).
Mr. THORNBERRY. I think all of us share many of the frustrations
voiced by the gentleman from California, but his amendment goes too
far.
I agree we should look for additional allies in the region. The
problem is there's not another ally in the region through which our
military can be supplied. So for the sake of our troops in Afghanistan,
as well as a lot of the broader interests in the region, it is
important for us to try to improve our relationship with Pakistan.
And as my colleague from Texas says, in the bill now we cut the funds
from DOD in half and we require a certification that Pakistan is
supporting our counterterrorism efforts, that they are supporting
efforts to dismantle the IED networks, that they are preventing the
proliferation of nuclear-related material, that they are issuing visas
in a timely manner for U.S. Government personnel involved in
counterterrorism efforts. We put severe restrictions on any assistance
that they get. But that is a carrot to encourage them to work with us,
rather than saying, No, you get nothing.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. How much time is remaining?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California has 1 minute
remaining. The gentleman from Washington has 45 seconds remaining.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. I have here 13 pages of restrictions that we have
had on Pakistan aid over the last few years, 13 pages of restrictions
that have meant nothing.
During the time that we have been giving them billions of dollars
with all
[[Page H3011]]
of these restrictions, they have been giving safe haven to Osama bin
Laden, who massacred and slaughtered 3,000 Americans. How can we forget
about that? How can we just go on and give these people money?
The people of Pakistan can be our friends. They are our friends. But
we have to recognize that their government is a terrorist-supporting
government and a radical Islamic-supporting government.
And we continue to give them money as they support insurgents that
kill our people overseas. Is there any doubt about that? Admiral Mullen
confirmed it for us.
Why are we ignoring that? We are acting like fools and we are acting
like cowards. It is time for us to stand up for the American defenders
who are over there putting their lives on the line and say, No. If
we're going to give money to the people killing you, we're not going to
do that, period. That's going over the line.
I would suggest to my colleagues to join me in defunding the enemy of
the United States.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield myself the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman is recognized for 45 seconds.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. We are not ignoring any of that. All of
those issues are things we discussed in the Armed Services Committee,
are very much aware of and very concerned about. But the bottom line
is, as my colleagues have pointed out, regrettably, Pakistan is in a
part of the world where we have national security interests.
Pakistan has, at various times, provided critical support to allow us
to get the supplies we need to our troops in Afghanistan. They have
also assisted us in going after various terrorist groups inside of
Pakistan. That help has been maybe 2 percent of what we would like it
to be, but that 2 percent, regrettably, is help we cannot turn away.
It is a very problematic relationship. I think the gentleman who
offered this amendment described that quite well. But we cannot afford
to simply cut it off because of how important that region is to our
national security interests. His amendment would do that. And it is bad
policy for this country, bad policy for our troops, and bad policy for
our national security interests. Therefore, I would urge us to oppose
it.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from California (Mr. Rohrabacher).
The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes
appeared to have it.
Mr. ROHRABACHER. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from California
will be postponed.
Amendment No. 5 Offered by Ms. Lee of California
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 5
printed in House Report 112 485.
Ms. LEE of California. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of subtitle B of title XII of division A of the
bill, add the following:
SEC. 12XX. LIMITATION ON FUNDS FOR OPERATIONS OF THE ARMED
FORCES IN AFGHANISTAN.
(a) In General.--Funds made available to carry out this Act
for operations of the Armed Forces in Afghanistan shall be
obligated and expended only for purposes of providing for the
safe and orderly withdrawal from Afghanistan of all members
of the Armed Forces and Department of Defense contractor
personnel who are in Afghanistan.
(b) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this section shall be
construed--
(1) to authorize the use of funds for the continuation of
combat operations in Afghanistan while carrying out the safe
and orderly withdrawal from Afghanistan of all members of the
Armed Forces and Department of Defense contractor personnel
who are in Afghanistan; and
(2) to prohibit or otherwise restrict the use of funds
available to any department or agency of the United States to
carry out diplomatic efforts or humanitarian, development, or
general reconstruction activities in Afghanistan.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentlewoman
from California (Ms. Lee) and a Member opposed each will control 10
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from California.
Ms. LEE of California. First, let me just say this. It is just
downright outrageous that the McGovern-Jones amendment was ruled out of
order by the Rules Committee, denying this House the opportunity to
debate and vote on their amendment.
Secondly, we really do need a clear and 2 days of debate, at least--
not 20 minutes--on this critical issue of Afghanistan. So for the life
of me, 20 minutes is not long enough. And I don't quite understand why,
in fact, the McGovern-Jones amendment was not given the full amount of
time, because the American people deserve to hear both sides of this
issue from a variety of policy perspectives.
My amendment today would put a responsible end to combat operation in
Afghanistan by limiting the funding to the safe and orderly withdrawal
of U.S. troops and military contractors.
And I have to thank the cosponsors of this bipartisan amendment--
Representatives Jones, Conyers, Paul, Woolsey, Welch, Nadler,
Hastings--and all of our colleagues who have worked on this issue
throughout the years to responsibly end the war in Afghanistan. I have
offered this amendment in the past, and it has been a bipartisan
amendment.
It is clear that the American people have been far ahead of Congress
in supporting an end to the war in Afghanistan. My amendment allows
Congress the opportunity to stand squarely with the war-weary American
people who want to bring our troops home. The call has been growing
across this land to bring this war to an end. It's time now for the
Congress to answer the call here today.
{time} 1610
The reality is there is no military solution to the war in
Afghanistan. Our brave troops have done everything that was asked of
them and more.
As a daughter of a military veteran, I also know firsthand the
sacrifices and the commitment involved with defending our Nation. But
the truth is that they have been put in an impossible situation. There
is no military solution, and it's past time to end the war and bring
the troops home.
Over a decade now, over $500 billion spent in direct costs and, mind
you, not a penny of it has been paid for. Instead, we should have been
investing in jobs and in our economy here at home and a smarter
national security strategy.
It is time to say enough is enough. With almost 2,000 United States
troops killed in Afghanistan and many tens of thousands more maimed
with injuries both hidden and visible, we must recognize that the boots
on the ground strategy in Afghanistan must end. It's critical to our
economy and the future of this country that we stop pouring billions on
a counterproductive military presence in Afghanistan.
The American people have made it clear that the war is no longer
worth fighting--not for another year, not for another 2 years, and
surely not for another 12 years. Today, Congress should stand with
seven out of 10 Americans who oppose the war in Afghanistan. After 11
long years, it is time to bring our troops home. We can do that
responsibly by voting ``yes'' on the Lee amendment today.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I claim the time in opposition.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California is recognized for 10
minutes.
Mr. McKEON. At this time, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from
Texas (Mr. Thornberry), the vice chairman of the committee.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, essentially this amendment says get out
now; leave Afghanistan regardless of the consequences.
I appreciate the honesty and the forthright nature of this amendment
offered by the gentlelady from California. It is better to say up front
what you're trying to do rather than put various conditions on it, or
to tie our troops' hands in some way, or to not put enough troops in
the field in order to accomplish the mission we're asking them to do.
This is very clear. It says
[[Page H3012]]
leave now. And it is tempting for all of us because we have been there
for awhile.
I want our troops to leave as soon as possible consistent with
national security. As a matter of fact, the underlying bill says that
the United States military should not maintain an indefinite combat
presence in Afghanistan and should transition to a counterterrorism and
advise-and-assist mission at the earliest possible date consistent with
the conditions on the ground. And that's really the difference--
consistent with the conditions on the ground.
We believe, I believe, you have to take account of what the situation
is there, and you cannot just abandon Afghanistan and ignore, stick
your head in the sand and pretend it's not going to have consequences.
I think it's important to remember why we're there to begin with. We're
not there because of them. We're there because of us. We're there to
make sure that Afghanistan is no longer used as a safe haven, as a base
which will be used to launch attacks against us. That's the crux of the
matter.
As soon as they are able to provide for their own security and
prevent a return of the Taliban, a return of al Qaeda, then we can go
and we'll have accomplished our mission, and they'll have to sort
through their domestic issues on their own.
But if we leave too early and al Qaeda and the Taliban return and use
it as a base to launch attacks against us, then I'm afraid more
Americans will suffer and we could see repeats of past terrorist
attacks.
So as tempting as it is, Mr. Chairman, we cannot ignore the
consequences of our actions. Leaving too fast would be bad for our
security.
Ms. LEE of California. I yield 2 minutes to the gentlewoman from
California (Ms. Woolsey).
Ms. WOOLSEY. Mr. Chairman, I rise today in support of my friend
Barbara Lee's amendment.
Let's look at the facts. Two-thirds of Americans oppose our military
occupation of Afghanistan. So if the American people were to vote on
this amendment today, it would pass overwhelmingly with support from
both Democrats and Republicans. After nearly 11 years, Mr. Chairman,
enough is enough.
Congress must catch up to the people they represent and embrace a
responsible end to this war. Instead of dumping $10 billion a month
into an unwinnable war, let's redirect our resources towards a SMART
Security approach. Let's invest in people. Let's invest in development.
Let's invest in humanitarian progress. Let's bring our troops home.
Vote ``yes'' on the Lee amendment. Vote ``yes'' for SMART Security.
Vote ``yes'' for the American people.
Mr. McKEON. At this time, Mr. Chairman, I yield 3 minutes to the
gentleman from Texas (Mr. Conaway), a member of the committee.
Mr. CONAWAY. Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the chairman yielding me the
time.
I stand in opposition to this amendment. My colleague stated it very
well earlier. This says just get out now.
My colleagues across the aisle in support of this amendment have
continued to use the word ``responsible'' over and over, and there is
nothing responsible about abandoning the efforts in Afghanistan today
without proper conditions on the ground.
The President has a plan in place. Some of us may have had differing
ideas with him, but he put a plan in place that says our combat troops
will be out of there by 2014 contingent with conditions on the ground.
The Afghan people are responsible for their own security, and we're
trying to help them get to that place with the Afghan National Army,
the Afghan National Police, and the Afghan local army. Those efforts
are going on across the provinces of Afghanistan as we speak, and
they're getting into the lead to take care of their security.
But abandoning of Afghanistan today would put at risk 27 million
Afghanis who are counting on us to get this right, counting on us to
put them in a position to be able to defend themselves when we do leave
in 2014. So getting out now, Mr. Chairman, is irresponsible rather than
responsible.
Now, I understand all of us are tired. All of us are weary. None of
us like to go to those funerals. I go to the funerals of the young men
and women who have been killed in Afghanistan and Iraq, and I stand
with those moms and dads and husbands and wives on the worst days of
their life. I understand, it's grinding grief that's associated with
it. But there's a pride also attached to it that their loved one gave
their life for something positive, for something good, so that 27
million Afghanis could create a government that would allow them to
rule themselves and not have the thugs and the Taliban do what they did
in the mid-1990s: come in and slaughter all of the thoughtful people,
all the teachers, all the folks who would lead, in order to subjugate
their people in ways that are just horrendous.
They will do that again to anyone who has helped us over this last
10-year period. So we do have a responsibility there. The
responsibility is to get out when the conditions on the ground say it's
time to get out.
NATO is meeting this weekend in Chicago to determine ongoing
conditions, what's going to be done with respect to their commitments,
and this amendment would undermine all of those efforts going on there.
So I stand in opposition to this amendment and encourage my
colleagues to vote ``no'' on this amendment.
Ms. LEE of California. Mr. Chairman, I would like to yield 1 minute
to the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Conyers).
Mr. CONYERS. I thank the gentlelady from California, and I appreciate
that ending America's longest war--over 10 years--is not an
unreasonable notion, because there is a serious misunderstanding going
on about this amendment on the other side.
Withdrawing United States troops does not mean we're abandoning
Afghanistan. Please, there's a difference. There are other ways that we
can continue to develop the diplomatic and political solutions that
can't be won at gunpoint.
Don't you get it? If we're leaving in 2014, we're just saying let's
speed it up; let's begin a rational withdrawal. And we have a
responsibility to keep a commitment to Afghanistan. It doesn't mean
troops. It doesn't mean our military has to die.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 2 minutes at this time to the
gentleman from Florida (Mr. West), a member of the committee, a
gentleman who has led troops in battle.
Mr. WEST. Mr. Chairman, thank you for allowing me to speak.
I will say this one thing. I've been in Afghanistan for 2\1/2\ years.
And having been a ground combat commander, I say one thing: if this
amendment were to pass, where it says this amendment would restrict the
authorization and use of funds for continuation of combat operations in
Afghanistan, just today, in the Farah province, which I've been to, the
Taliban attacked an Afghan Government compound, killing 7 people.
{time} 1620
What you are telling our men and women in combat, what you are saying
to the enemy is that we are going to leave those men and women hanging,
that we are not going to provide them the resources.
Now, I see where this amendment says it does not prohibit or restrict
the use of funds available for the U.S. to carry out diplomatic,
humanitarian, development, or general reconstruction efforts. One of
the problems that we have had in Afghanistan is that we got involved in
nation-building, we got involved in occupational-style warfare, and
truly not being involved in a counterterrorism style of warfare and
going after the enemy. This is where our primary focus should be.
We have generals that are on the ground that know what they're doing.
They've been to Staff College, they've been to War College. Why is it
that we don't want to listen to the people that we have placed trust
and confidence in to lead our men and women in combat? They have been
told that in 2014 we will be drawing down and leaving Afghanistan. Why
in God's name would we want to repeat some of the horrible things that
I saw my older brother go through in Vietnam, where we restricted
funding, and the next thing you know you had the killing fields of Pol
Pot? I'm telling you, I've been in Afghanistan; I know this enemy. And
I don't see anyone over there, my dear colleagues on the other side,
that I would trust more than General Allen,
[[Page H3013]]
who is on the ground, who knows what he has to do.
The message that you send to our troops is that you're abandoning
them. The message that you send to the Taliban, to al Qaeda, to the
Haqqani Network, to LeT, to every single radical Islamic group, is that
we have turned our backs on our military, and you can continue to kill
them.
I just want to say one simple thing. Two weeks ago, I went to the
memorial service for PFC Michael J. Metcalf of Boynton Beach, Florida,
who was laid to rest today in Arlington. I will not turn my back on
those men and women who are still my friends, some of them even my
relatives. I ask that my colleagues do not vote for this amendment.
Ms. LEE of California. Mr. Chairman, how much time do I have
remaining?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from California has 4\1/2\ minutes
remaining. The gentleman from California has 4 minutes remaining.
Ms. LEE of California. I yield myself 30 seconds and respond to the
gentleman from Florida and just say this amendment--I think he's
probably not reading the amendment that I have offered.
What this amendment does is restrict our funding for the purpose of
the safe and the orderly withdrawal from Afghanistan of all members of
the Armed Forces and the Department of Defense. It is not a cut-and-run
amendment. This is a force protection amendment. It would bring our
young men and women out of harm's way and it would provide the
resources to move forward to help stabilize the region.
I'd like now to yield 1 minute to the gentlelady from Hawaii (Ms.
Hanabusa).
Ms. HANABUSA. Mr. Chairman, I rise to speak in support of the Lee
amendment.
When I was in the Hawaii State legislature, we were the only State
that did a Hawaii Medal of Honor. The unfortunate part about it is we
gave those medals to the spouses and the families and the friends of
those who had fallen in Iraq and Afghanistan, as long as they had some
connection to Hawaii, either serving at one of our bases or being from
there. When I went through that proceeding, I said, you know, as soon
as we can--and I believe the time has come for us--we must safely
remove our troops and the civilian personnel because we owe it to them.
It is not a matter of whether or not we are abdicating or we are
turning our backs on them. They have done what they were sent there to
do. Eleven years of fighting; Osama bin Laden is dead. The people of
the United States know that, and they are asking us to remove the men
and women. Don't continue them in harm's way because we have done what
we told them they were sent there to do. That is why I stand in support
of the Lee amendment.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, at this time I yield 1 minute to my friend
and colleague, the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Kinzinger), a member of
the committee and an Air Force pilot.
Mr. KINZINGER of Illinois. Mr. Chairman, leadership isn't easy. These
are lessons that we learned all through history. We learned it from
Abraham Lincoln when he had to face a union that was dissolving. I
learned it in officer training as a pilot in the military. And I
learned it in my experience overseas.
Think of the sacrifice that our troops have made in Afghanistan. Now,
we understand it's been too long, but think of the sacrifice they've
made. Now we're getting ready--very quickly, with the passage of an
amendment, if this passes--to say we're just getting out; we're not
going to leave the commanders on the ground with the authority to say
how we do it or what we do.
What are we going to say to our troops if this passes, and what are
we going to say to Bibi? Bibi is a young woman in Afghanistan who at
the age of 12 was sold into slavery because somebody committed a crime
in her family and the Taliban required her to be sold into slavery. She
escaped and had her nose and ears cut off. Her uncle and her family
turned their back on her as she tried to crawl to safety. She went to
an American forward operating base, where she was granted safety and
freedom. What are we going to say to Bibi when we pick up and say, you
know what, we've had enough, we're just going to pick up and leave
today?
This is a big deal. I would urge my colleagues to oppose this ill-
thought-out amendment.
Ms. LEE of California. Mr. Chairman, how much time do I have
remaining?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from California has 2 minutes
remaining. The gentleman from California has 3 minutes remaining.
Ms. LEE of California. I'd like to yield now 1 minute to the
gentlelady from Texas (Ms. Jackson Lee).
Ms. JACKSON LEE of Texas. I'd like to thank the gentlelady for a very
thoughtful amendment. And I again acknowledge the amendment that both
Mr. Smith and Mr. McGovern had. Clearly, what this is is an opportunity
for the American people to speak through their representatives here on
the floor of the House.
None of us want to promote the killing of women, the cutting off of
ears, the mutilation of anyone. I have founded and chaired the Afghan
Caucus. I have gone to Afghanistan many times. I've delivered books to
their schools. What we are suggesting is that the precious blood of our
soldiers, first going there after the horrific incident of 9/11, they,
after 10 years, have given the fullest measure. What we're suggesting
is that we bring them home safely and orderly, and that we begin to use
the diplomatic resources, we enhance NATO, we make sure that we work
with our allies, and we have the Afghan national security forces stand
up. That's what we're saying.
We've given enough ribbons and hero awards because we know that our
soldiers would not step away--they want to be there with their
comrades. But it is important for us, as Members of Congress, who make
decisions to send young men and women into war, to make a decision that
their job is well done, and that Afghanistan begin to, in essence,
develop the democratic processes and begin to have their national
security forces and their police officers stand up. Enough killing of
our soldiers by internal acts by Afghan police and soldiers. Let us
bring them home now in an orderly way.
God bless our troops, and God bless the United States of America.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, at this time I yield 1 minute to my friend
and colleague, the gentleman from New Mexico (Mr. Pearce).
Mr. PEARCE. Mr. Chairman, I flew combat missions in Vietnam in 1971,
'72, and '73. I was there when Members of this House voted to cut the
funds to troops in combat.
I'm hearing the words ``safe'' and ``orderly'' withdrawal. Has anyone
on the other side looked at the safe and orderly withdrawal that
occurred in Vietnam? As we fell head over heels, we left 574 combat-
ready aircraft there. That was the safe and orderly withdrawal we had
when this body began to manage Vietnam. We lost the Vietnam War because
we took the control of the war away from the generals and placed it
into this body, people who had never been in combat, who had never been
in harm's way.
I'm telling you, as someone who was there during a time when Congress
choked off the funds to people that were in harm's way, I had a burning
anger that burns today. And when I see this amendment and visualize the
young men and women over there whom you're cutting funds off to and
saying we're going to leave you with an orderly and quiet withdrawal--
it's not humanly possible. The other side doesn't play by your orderly
rules.
Understand that this is war, and our troops' lives are at risk, and
you're putting them more so.
Ms. LEE of California. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my
time.
Mr. McKEON. Could I ask the time remaining?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California has 2 minutes
remaining. The gentlewoman from California has 1 minute remaining.
Mr. McKEON. And I have the right to close?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California has the right to
close.
Mr. McKEON. I reserve the balance of my time.
Ms. LEE of California. Let me just first say that I appreciate this
20-minute debate, but we should have a couple of days to be able to
have a full debate on why we need to, one, protect our troops and
provide for their safe and orderly withdrawal.
The American people are war weary. We need to reunite our brave men
and
[[Page H3014]]
women in uniform with their families at home. We should transfer the
billions of dollars that we're spending on war to creating jobs here at
home. We should ensure that our troops are provided with the resources
that they deserve and they need during this withdrawal.
{time} 1630
We're asking for a safe and orderly withdrawal. We're saying our
young men and women have fought; they've done everything we've asked
them to do. We think that now, as the American people are saying, the
combat mission, the fighting should end, and we should begin by
protecting our troops and contractors; and we should begin to end the
longest war in American history. It's time to end the war in
Afghanistan.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself the balance of the time.
Mr. Chairman, when I was in Afghanistan a few years ago, I visited
Camp Leatherneck. General Nicholson, who was just setting up base, and
they were just there in the desert--the men were out setting up forward
operating bases, trying to take back territory that the Taliban
commanded. The general told me that his troops were being asked every
day by the local people, when are you leaving? How long are you going
to be here? Can we trust you to be here to protect us?
Last year, when I returned, I went to the same area. We were able to
go to Marjah this time, which we couldn't go to before because that was
a Taliban stronghold. Last year, we were able to walk down the street
in Marjah. I saw marines and Afghan soldiers embracing; they were happy
to see each other. Maybe they'd been apart for a while.
The marines had put up light standards down the street, and the
merchants were able to keep their stores open a little bit longer.
We opened a school while we were there, not a school like we enjoy,
but it was a school built out of adobe and tents. They had 500 kids.
About a third of them were girls. They were able to go to school that
they hadn't been able to go to before. They were excited about that
opportunity.
I visited with the local governor there. We had lunch. I asked him
what motivated him, because he knew, as the Taliban came back for the
spring effect, that his life was on the line. He said, God willing,
we'll prevail.
Mr. Chairman, I think when we talk about pulling these people out
before they have a chance to complete their mission--I was at a street
fair in Simi Valley last week and I talked to a lady working in a booth
for the troops. She said, my grandson just came home from Afghanistan.
And I told him we ought to just get out of there. And he said, Granny,
that's wrong. We're accomplishing great things. We're helping those
people. Let us finish our mission.
That's what the generals say they should do. That's what the troops
say they should do.
Defeat this amendment that pulls the troops out immediately.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. NADLER. Mr. Chair, I rise to support the Lee Amendment to end the
war in Afghanistan and bring our troops home as quickly as possible.
The whole premise of the war in Afghanistan is wrong. The rationale
for the war is to fight Al Qaeda, but most of the day-to-day fighting
is against an entrenched Taliban insurgency that will outlast any
foreign fighters. Fighting in Afghanistan does not enhance the security
of the United States in any way.
In 2001, we were attacked on 9/11 by Al Qaeda. Al Qaeda had bases in
Afghanistan, and at that time it made sense to go in and destroy those
bases, and we did. But that took about three weeks. We should have
withdrawn after three weeks. The CIA told us more than a year ago that
there are fewer than one hundred Al Qaeda personnel in all of
Afghanistan. So why do we still have 88,000 troops there? Troops who
will continue to risk their lives every day in a war that has already
claimed far too many lives. And why should we continue pouring billions
of dollars into an intractable mess when we should be devoting those
funds to our own economy, our own jobs, our own schools, our own
bridges and roads and highways, our own housing, social programs, and
education?
Afghanistan is in the middle of what is, so far, a 35 year civil war.
We do not have either the need or the ability to determine the winner
in that war, which is what we're trying to do. If we continue on this
course, in two years, there will be hundreds more dead American
soldiers, several hundred billion more dollars wasted, and two or three
more provinces labeled ``pacified''. But as soon as we leave, now or in
2014 or 2016 or 2024 or whenever, those provinces will promptly become
``unpacified,'' the Taliban and the warlords will step up the fighting,
and the Afghan civil war will resume its normal, natural course.
Our troops are fighting valiantly, but we are there on the wrong
mission. We should recognize that rebuilding Afghanistan in our own
image, that setting up a stable government that will last is both
beyond our ability and beyond our mandate to prevent terrorists from
attacking the United States. We fulfilled the mission in protecting
America from terrorists based in Afghanistan over 10 years ago. We
should have withdrawn our troops 10 years ago, we should withdraw them
now. We shouldn't wait till 2014, we shouldn't have several thousand
advisors or troops or whatever advising or helping the Afghanis for
another 10 years. They have their own civil war they have been fighting
for 35 years. I wish we could wave a magic wand and end it but we
can't, we should not participate in what is an Afghan civil war, we do
not need to pick the winner, we do not have the ability to pick the
winner, all we are doing is wasting lives, wasting limbs, wasting
people and wasting dollars. It ought to end as rapidly as we can
physically get them out of there.
Mr. HOYER. Mr. Chair, I continue to be disappointed at how
Republicans are approaching deficit reduction. Every day, we hear
Republicans talking about the need for painful cuts to get our deficits
in order. However, time and again, Republicans appear unwilling to
exercise fiscal discipline when it affects something they like.
First, the sequester is set to impose difficult and arbitrary
spending cuts across both defense and domestic programs unless we
replace its deficit savings before the end of the year. Yet,
Republicans seek to find these savings only by cutting domestic
programs like Social Service Block Grants, food stamps, and preventive
health care services. And second, we reached an agreement last August
on spending levels, which Republicans have now broken.
This Republican defense bill authorizes $8 billion more than the
agreed-upon level. At the same time, Republicans are drastically
cutting domestic programs.
This amendment returns defense spending to the level agreed upon in
the Budget Control Act. It does so without weakening our military or
denying our troops the tools they need to succeed in their mission.
This should be something Republicans and Democrats ought to see eye to
eye on, because we previously agreed to it in August.
Democrats want to provide our troops with every tool they need to
carry out their mission and keep Americans safe. The arbitrary cuts of
the sequester will make doing so much more difficult.
That's why we need a solution that balances defense and non-defense
spending cuts and includes revenues--a big, bold, and balanced
approach.
This, Mr. Chair, is the opposite of a balanced approach, and I urge
my colleagues to adopt this amendment and send a strong message that we
must approach deficit reduction with the seriousness it deserves.
I commend Representative Barbara Lee, Financial Services Ranking
Member Barney Frank, Representative Lynn Woolsey, and Representative
Earl Blumenauer for their work on this amendment and for standing up
for the agreement the parties reached last August.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentlewoman from California (Ms. Lee).
The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes
appeared to have it.
Ms. LEE of California. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from California
will be postponed.
Amendment No. 6 Offered by Mr. Connolly of Virginia
The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Simpson). It is now in order to consider
amendment No. 6 printed in House Report 112 485.
Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the
desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
Page 542, after line 19, insert the following:
``(3) A certification of the Secretary of Defense that the
Government of Pakistan--
``(A) has opened the Ground Lines of Communication;
``(B) is allowing the transit of NATO supplies through
Pakistan into Afghanistan; and
[[Page H3015]]
``(C) is supporting retrograde of United States equipment
out of Afghanistan.''.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from Virginia (Mr. Connolly) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Virginia.
Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. I first want to congratulate the chairman
and the ranking member and their respective staffs for once again
offering us a model for bipartisan collaboration on major legislation.
This particular amendment addresses the future drawdown in
Afghanistan which will require NATO to remove $30 billion of equipment
from Afghanistan by the end of 2014. This includes everything from
vehicles to armor to equipment. Logistically speaking, this is quite a
challenge.
The United States and its allies have relied on two major routes to
transport equipment to Afghanistan: the Ground Lines of Communication,
which is the NATO supply route, and the Northern Distribution Network
through Central Asia.
For nearly 6 months, Pakistan has closed the NATO troop supply route
in response to the accidental shooting of Pakistani troops on the
border. While recent talks between us on the subject have been
positive, the final outcome is far from certain.
This simple amendment addresses the issue head-on by withholding
funds to the Coalition Support Fund until the Secretary of Defense
certifies that Pakistan has opened the Ground Lines of Communication,
is allowing the transit of NATO supplies through Pakistan into
Afghanistan, and, three, is supporting retrograde of U.S. equipment out
of Afghanistan.
Drawing down from Afghanistan will be no easy feat, and it will
require the cooperation of our allies, no matter how strained the ties.
Several recent developments have caused some of my colleagues to
question why we continue to engage with Pakistan at all. Well,
Secretary of State Clinton said it best: Pakistan is a nuclear-armed
state sitting at the crossroads of a strategic region. And we have seen
the cost of disengaging from that region before.
Simply put, we have a national security interest in maintaining the
bilateral relationship. The presence of several competing actors in
South and Central Asia necessitates ongoing U.S. engagement in the
region. A key requirement for a successful transition to a post-Taliban
Afghanistan is a deep and nuanced understanding of all the players in
the region. This includes each actor's desired endgame and its
willingness to work toward a peaceful Afghanistan ruled by the Afghans.
Equivocal statements and doublespeak by any party, frankly, impedes
that progress.
As the United States prepares to complete the transition, we should
clearly outline our mission, identify our allies, and specify our
expectations. This amendment does just that.
Mr. Chairman, I also want to take a moment to express my appreciation
again to the chairman and ranking member of the committee for working
with me on this and other provisions in the bill. Specifically, I am
grateful for the committee's collaboration on two initiatives to
promote competition among advanced small businesses to ensure the
Federal agencies are issuing accurate size standards, and to strengthen
America's small businesses and save taxpayer money.
I also appreciate the committee's support of a bipartisan amendment,
amendment No. 96, I submitted, along with Mr. Lankford of Oklahoma, to
combat human trafficking by Federal subcontractors. I think it will go
a long way to addressing that problem.
With that, Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I claim time in opposition to the amendment
although I don't oppose the amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. Does any Member claim time in opposition?
Without objection, the gentleman from California is recognized for 5
minutes.
There was no objection.
Mr. McKEON. I yield myself such time as I may consume.
Mr. Chairman, we had an amendment earlier to cut off all funds to
Pakistan. This is a more moderate approach.
Pakistan is part of the problem, we understand that. They live in a
tough neighborhood. We know that in some ways they help us, in some
ways they don't help us.
This amendment is kind of a carrot-and-stick approach. We say, when
you do the things that you say you'll do, when you open these Ground
Lines of Communication, we'll be giving you some of the funds. I think
that's the proper approach that we should take, and I think that will
help us in moving forward our effort in that area.
I thank the gentleman for his amendment. I think it makes the bill
stronger. I thank him for his work in this regard.
I ask support of the amendment and yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. May I inquire how much time is left on this
side.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman has 2 minutes remaining.
Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
Washington (Mr. Smith), the distinguished ranking member of the
committee.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I rise in support of this
amendment as well.
As was discussed earlier, we certainly have problems with our
relationship with Pakistan. We want to make sure that we continue to
put the pressure on them to improve that relationship. Opening up these
supply lines are critical to our troops. I think it is a minimum
requirement that we should ask, and the gentleman's amendment is very
well thought out. It is the appropriate response for dealing with our
difficult ally.
As Mr. Rohrabacher mentioned earlier, certainly there is much that
Pakistan does that causes us trouble. But they are a country that we
need to work with if we're going to properly contain the al Qaeda and
terrorist threat that comes from that region of the world. I think the
gentleman from Virginia's amendment strikes that balance just right,
and I urge this body to support it.
Mr. CONNOLLY. I now yield 30 seconds to the gentlewoman from Texas
(Ms. Jackson Lee).
Ms. JACKSON LEE of Texas. Let me thank the gentleman for his hard
work, and let me have an open letter to our friends in Pakistan,
Pakistani Americans, that your friendship is appreciated. The hard work
that we have done together is appreciated.
But we are looking to begin the reopening of those borders that are
crucial to the survival and the efforts of our men and women who are
presently in Afghanistan and on that border. And I would also say that
with the leadership of the new ambassador, with the efforts that have
been made by the Foreign Minister of Pakistan, they understand, and
have made announcements that they would begin the opening of those
lines, not only of communication but travel, and we would hope that
that would happen soon.
Again, I emphasize working with the Pakistani people is crucial.
Developing allies is crucial in that very difficult neighborhood where
Pakistanis themselves are subject to terrorist acts.
{time} 1640
Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. I thank my colleague.
Again, I want to thank the chairman and the ranking member and their
wonderful staffs for their hard work on this bill, and I yield back the
balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Connolly).
The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the ayes
appeared to have it.
Mr. CONNOLLY of Virginia. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Virginia
will be postponed.
Amendment No. 7 Offered by Mr. Rooney
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 7
printed in House Report 112 485.
Mr. ROONEY. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
[[Page H3016]]
At the end of title X, add the following new section:
SEC. 10__. TRIAL OF FOREIGN TERRORISTS.
After the date of the enactment of this Act, any foreign
national, who--
(1) engages or has engaged in conduct constituting an
offense relating to a terrorist attack against persons or
property in the United States or against any United States
Government property or personnel outside the United States,
and
(2) is subject to trial for that offense by a military
commission under chapter 47A of title 10, United States Code,
shall be tried for that offense only by a military commission
under that chapter.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from Florida (Mr. Rooney) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Florida.
Mr. ROONEY. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
My amendment simply codifies in the NDAA that any foreign terrorist
detained be tried in a military tribunal set up by this Congress rather
than in an Article III court. The reason for that is quite simple.
Article III courts, which are reserved for our citizens, afford
constitutional rights: the right of an attorney, the right to remain
silent, a right to face your accuser and to contradict the evidence
that's brought against you, evidence which sometimes is being offered
by the government and by people in the intelligence community--
information and sources that need to be protected.
Military tribunals, I think, are the more adequate venue for foreign
terrorist enemy combatants to be tried and to be given due process
fairly, which would also protect our sources and would also protect the
way that we gather evidence by men and women in uniform and by panels
of men and women in uniform. I had the pleasure of serving in the
United States Army JAG Corps. They are people of the utmost integrity
and the utmost fairness.
Specifically, despite the fact of our moving further away from 9/11,
the war on terror continues, as we have seen with Abdulmutallab, the
underwear bomber, as we have seen with Major Nidal Hasan in the Fort
Hood shootings, as we have seen with the Times Square bombing, and as
we have seen as recently as last week in a second attempt at an
underwear-type bombing on an airplane.
So, for these reasons and for the reasons stated previously with
regard to detainees at Guantanamo Bay, for those who are not U.S.
citizens but who are foreign terrorist detainees--and they should get
due process--I believe in the due process venue of the military
tribunals and military court down in Guantanamo Bay so that they may
get their day in court in a fair way, one that is humane and just.
With that, Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I rise in opposition to the amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield myself such time as I may consume.
I do not oppose military commissions. I think military commissions
are an important tool, particularly when you are talking about people
who are captured overseas, potentially in Afghanistan, Yemen, Somalia.
I agree with the gentleman in that there are instances when the
evidence necessary requires a military commission.
Yet the problem with this amendment is it says it has to be a
military commission, that Article III courts are never an option. We
have an extensive history of capturing terrorists overseas, of bringing
them back to the United States, of trying them in Article III courts,
and of convicting them and putting them in prison. We've done that a
number of different times, and it is an option that should be on the
table. I cannot support taking that option completely away under any
circumstances, because there are a couple of problems with military
commissions.
They are necessary for many of the reasons that Mr. Rooney stated.
However, they are also relatively new. We had some military commissions
during World War II--I believe just one for a particular group of
German spies who were here in the U.S. We've done a couple since then,
but they are untested, and there will undoubtedly be appeals.
The beauty of the Article III courts is you have 230 years of
history. My math may be off a little bit there, but you have over 200
years of history. Let's put it that way. It's well developed, and you
know what's coming, and you can prepare the evidence accordingly. We
don't know what's going to come from a military commission.
The second problem with the military commissions is that our overseas
allies are not as fond of them as we are, and it may inhibit our
ability to get them to turn terrorists over to us for prosecution if
they know they have to go to military commissions.
This amendment doesn't make any sense. To take Article III courts
completely off the table is taking an option away from the President
and from this country to properly protect us. There are going to be
instances when we are going to want to use that tool and other
instances when we will want to use the military commissions, and this
amendment takes away that option in a way that, I believe, will hamper
national security. It will limit our options for how to prosecute
terrorists.
I will say this again, and I will emphasize this: we seem to have
totally lost track of the fact that the Department of Justice, the FBI,
our Article III courts have been one of the most important tools in
successfully stopping the terrorists--over 400 tried, convicted, and
locked up for life. That is a very effective tool. The FBI knows how to
investigate crimes. It knows how to interrogate suspects. It can do the
job.
Why would we take that tool in our toolbox and throw it away? It
doesn't make sense. For that reason, I have to oppose this amendment.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. ROONEY. Mr. Chairman, I yield 90 seconds to my friend from
Arkansas (Mr. Griffin).
Mr. GRIFFIN of Arkansas. I stand in support of Mr. Rooney's
amendment, which requires all detainees currently held at Guantanamo
Bay to be tried by military commissions in the courtroom facility
there. It is a strong amendment.
I visited Gitmo. It was the first trip that I took when I got to
Congress. They had the facilities and the expertise there. I am also
currently serving as a JAG officer in the Army--I'm in my 16th year--
and I believe that it is the appropriate place to try them.
Article III courts are not equipped to try foreign terrorists. The
constitutional and legal standards for evidence-gathering and
prosecution in a civilian case are simply not adequate for the trial of
an enemy combatant. These cases often rely on classified evidence,
informants, and intelligence operatives. Military commissions, on the
other hand, are set up to protect critical intelligence, officials, and
evidence while still providing fair and due process for the accused.
I would also note that bringing terrorists up to New York City is a
very expensive proposition. My constituents have made it clear to me
that they want the terrorists kept where they are--at Gitmo--where our
state-of-the-art facility houses them. We've spent millions of dollars
there, including on a large courtroom in which to try detainees. It
makes no sense to spend millions more to bring them here for trial when
we have the facility and the process to try them at Gitmo.
I am confident that trying enemy combatants in military tribunals at
Gitmo is the best way to hold terrorists accountable, to keep them out
of the United States, and to prevent them from rejoining the fight.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. May I inquire as to how much time is
remaining?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman has 2\1/2\ minutes remaining.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from New
Jersey (Mr. Andrews).
(Mr. ANDREWS asked and was given permission to revise and extend his
remarks.)
Mr. ANDREWS. I rise in opposition to the amendment.
If a suspected terrorist can only be tried successfully in a military
commission because there are concerns about jeopardizing the
confidentiality of classified information or other concerns, then I
emphatically agree that that person should be tried in a military
commission. But to presuppose that all such detainees properly belong
in a military commission, I think, is a mistake, for two reasons.
[[Page H3017]]
First, it really prejudges the record of evidence and the standing of
law in that case when we're not necessarily competent to do that. That
is a decision the prosecutors ought to make. Secondly, I think,
although it's not the intention of the authors, I'm sure, it belies a
certain lack of confidence in our constitutional system of criminal
justice.
We should be proud of our system. It's one that operates on
principles of fairness, and it fairly and expeditiously determines
guilt or innocence. I think to abandon that system in all cases and
under all circumstances not only unwisely prejudges the facts of these
cases but also unwittingly undercuts confidence in our Constitution and
in our Article III courts. For that reason, I would urge a ``no'' vote
on this amendment.
{time} 1650
Mr. ROONEY. Mr. Chairman, may I inquire as to the time remaining.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Florida has 1 minute remaining,
and the gentleman from Washington has 1 minute remaining.
Mr. ROONEY. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, Mr. Rooney has the right to
close; is that correct?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Washington has the right to
close.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Then I will reserve the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Florida is recognized for 1
minute.
Mr. ROONEY. Mr. Chairman, I would just say to some of the things that
have been said that I don't think that what this amendment is saying is
in any way disparaging what Article III courts can do or would be
successful doing. Certainly I would agree that they could be adequate
in prosecuting criminals and people that do crimes in this country.
What we are talking about are foreign enemy terrorist combatants,
people that commit acts of war against this country in furtherance of
the authorization that this Congress passed.
What we have done as a Congress is set up military commissions in
ways that can protect evidence, ways that can protect witnesses and
sources, and, in my opinion, in a way that the Article III courts might
not be able to. I'm not saying that they couldn't. I'm saying that it
is a better venue. Just like when we talked about earlier the Ranking
Member Smith and Amash amendment, which would preclude the use of
military tribunals. As much as the ranking member is saying that
options should be on the table, we're saying the same thing.
With that, I hope my colleagues will vote for this amendment, and I
yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself the balance of
my time.
Three quick points. I think the difference here and the reason that I
drafted my amendment to say ``just in the U.S.,'' I think is a
legitimate point. Overseas we do not have the same control over the
investigatory process that we have here domestically. There's a clear
difference between dealing with someone here domestically. That's why
in the last 10 years we haven't done anything other than try people
here in the U.S. under Article III courts. We haven't needed military
commissions. That's why I think we should take that power away from the
President because it's an extraordinary amount of power to give him
that isn't necessary.
Overseas they are, in fact, taking away the options in this amendment
and saying it has to be military tribunals. They are also saying that
Article III courts are inadequate to do that when, in fact, they've
done it repeatedly. The people who committed the bombing against the
World Trade Towers in 1993 were captured overseas, brought back, and
tried here in domestic courts. Article III courts work sometimes in
these incidents. Their amendment takes those options away completely. I
also point out that Guantanamo Bay is not an enormous facility. They
already have 40 people waiting in line for military tribunals. Many
more will backlog that.
But I want to come back to my amendment that will come up later.
Domestically, we have proven that Article III courts are more than
adequate. Overseas, we've proven that we need multiple options. So this
amendment sort of is in reverse of what the facts bear out that we
should be doing, and I urge opposition to it.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Florida (Mr. Rooney).
The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes
appeared to have it.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Florida will
be postponed.
Amendment No. 8 Offered by Mr. Bartlett
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 8
printed in House Report 112 485.
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of subtitle A of title XXVIII, add the following
new section:
SEC. 28__. USE OF PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENTS IN MILITARY
CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS AND MILITARY FAMILY
HOUSING PROJECTS.
(a) Requirements.--Section 2852 of title 10, United States
Code, is amended by adding at the end the following new
subsection:
``(d)(1) The Secretary of Defense and the Secretaries of
the military departments, when awarding a construction
contract on behalf of the Government, in any solicitations,
bid specifications, project agreements, or other controlling
documents, shall not--
``(A) require or prohibit bidders, offerors, contractors,
or subcontractors to enter into or adhere to agreements with
one or more labor organizations; and
``(B) discriminate against or give preference to bidders,
offerors, contractors, or subcontractors based on their
entering or refusing to enter into such an agreement.
``(2) Nothing in this subsection shall prohibit a
contractor or subcontractor from voluntarily entering into an
agreement with one or more labor organizations, as protected
by the National Labor Relations Act (29 U.S.C. 151 et
seq.).''.
(b) Application of Amendment.--The amendment made by
subsection (a) shall not apply to construction contracts
awarded before the date of the enactment of this Act.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from Maryland (Mr. Bartlett) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Maryland.
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I may
consume.
This is a very simple amendment. I would first like to make two
statements that I think are generally recognized facts. One of those is
that only 11.8 percent of our workforce belongs to a PLA; secondly,
that PLA contracts in the government on the average cost the taxpayer
12 to 18 percent more than a non-PLA contract.
Our amendment is very simple. It is not prescriptive. It is simply
permissive. It says that the government will not discriminate in
awarding contracts whether you're a PLA, not PLA, whether it's a
mixture of PLA and non-PLA companies, that they will be considered
equal and fairly. If, in fact, a PLA contractor is more efficient and
does better quality work as they contend, then that will be taken into
account in the award of the contract. You do not have to award to the
lowest bidder. You can award on the basis of best value.
I think that this amendment is a commonsense amendment that anybody
who believes in the free enterprise system ought to support, and I
reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to this amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Connecticut is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, I rise in strong opposition to my friend
Mr. Bartlett's amendment, which, in fact, does the opposite of what it
was purported to do.
Presently the status quo allows the Department of Defense to have two
choices: yes, they can use a project-labor commitment or a prehiring-
labor agreement that establishes terms and conditions of employment, or
now they can elect not to enter into a PLA. The effect of this
amendment would, in fact, remove the Department's ability
[[Page H3018]]
to have a PLA requirement in terms of hiring terms and conditions.
The reason why those models work right now and have worked for
decades is it gives the Department of Defense the opportunity to set
conditions regarding security screening, apprenticeship programs,
veteran hiring programs. The Helmets to Hardhats program--which is one
of the most successful programs of integrating veterans returning from
Iraq and Afghanistan into the building trades--is done under a PLA
arrangement. It also allows local job markets to be incorporated into
military construction projects. Again, the Department now presently has
the option not to use PLAs. This amendment would, in fact, rob the
Department of that opportunity.
With that, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, I yield 2 minutes to my friend from
Arizona (Mr. Flake).
Mr. FLAKE. I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I rise in support
of the Bartlett-Flake amendment.
Let me just clear something up if I can. What has happened is the
President issued an executive order where he encouraged the Federal
Agencies to--where they can and where appropriate--employ PLAs. That
might seem fine. The problem is some of the Federal Agencies have taken
that to mean that they should require PLAs, and some of them have
issued guidance to that effect. So they've taken what the President
said and taken it one step further.
What we're trying to do here is simply say that you cannot favor
PLAs, nor can you prohibit them, and that the Federal Agencies will be
neutral in this regard. To say that it would prohibit the use of PLAs
is simply not true. We're simply trying to keep the President or the
Federal Agencies from putting their finger on the scale in favor of
PLAs or against them. That's what this amendment does, and I'm proud to
support it.
Let me just say that this amendment was offered in the Appropriations
Committee yesterday in the Military Construction bill, and it was
passed by a voice vote. There is a recognition that the President has--
unwittingly or not--put his finger on the scale in favor of PLAs or
union shops, and that's just not fair. The President and the Agencies
ought to be neutral in this regard.
PLAs might make sense; they might not. What we ought to do is ensure
that the taxpayer gets the biggest bang for the buck. That's the
purpose of this amendment, and that's why I support it.
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
Massachusetts (Mr. Lynch).
Mr. LYNCH. Mr. Chairman, I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I
rise in strong opposition to the Bartlett-Flake amendment. This
amendment would indeed seek to prohibit Agencies from using a PLA. It
is not as the gentleman from Arizona has just stated.
Let me clear something up. Large-scale construction projects--look, I
was an ironworker for 18 years. I've run work. I was an ironworker
foreman, an ironworker general foreman. PLAs are a great advantage to
have in a complex construction project.
This amendment and the PLA provision that's already in the
President's executive order applies to projects that are $25 million
and over. All of those projects below $25 million don't get affected by
the PLA executive order. What the PLA does require, as Mr. Courtney has
pointed out, is it does require compliance with statutory compliance
with workers' comp law, statutory compliance with anti-discrimination
law, with proper classification of workers, and with health and safety
laws on some very dangerous job sites.
It is a good idea to reject the Bartlett-Flake amendment and allow
the PLAs to be used when appropriate.
{time} 1700
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
Michigan (Mr. Walberg).
Mr. WALBERG. I thank the gentleman for yielding.
Mr. Chairman, I stand in strong support of this amendment, an
amendment that I think speaks to a rationality in our contracting, and
especially when we think of what we're talking about here in the
defense world.
It's one thing to have PLAs that virtually make unfair competition
for 86 percent of all of our construction contractors, because 86
percent, nationwide, don't have PLA agreements, they're nonunion, and
yet have skilled workers doing the jobs they are expected.
For defense contracting to have a mandate that there must be a PLA
agreement in place oftentimes will put our defense industry in the
position of accepting a product that is more expensive and potentially
of a lesser quality in the process.
This is not a mandate. This says choice can be made either way. And I
think it needs to be made very clear that's all we're saying. It is
neutral. It is not, as was described by others, that this would take
PLAs out of the mix.
I stand in strong support for this, and I ask that this amendment be
applied to ultimately make a stronger defense capability for our
country.
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the gentlelady from
Hawaii (Ms. Hanabusa), who is a member of the Armed Services Committee.
Ms. HANABUSA. I thank the gentleman from Connecticut.
I rise in opposition to the Bartlett amendment because I think the
Bartlett amendment doesn't quite understand the difference between a
project labor agreement and a collective bargaining agreement.
This amendment targets Executive Order 13502, which encourages the
use of PLAs in construction contracts of $25 million or more. And the
reason is that it's historically something that we have supported.
Ironically, in 1992, there was a Supreme Court decision that defined
PLAs, called the Boston Harbor Agreement, which was under President
Bush, who had a similar executive order that prohibited the use of
PLAs. It was Bush's solicitor Kenneth Starr that argued for the PLAs.
And he said the reason why you would use them is because of timely
completion, labor peace and stability, labor supply, and for public
purpose. This is the reason why you would use PLAs.
We know that historically, this has been one of the best ways to do
these major construction projects. What the Bartlett amendment does is
it will tie the hands of the Department of Defense.
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, may I inquire how much time remains?
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Maryland has 1\1/2\ minutes
remaining. The gentleman from Connecticut has 2 minutes remaining.
Mr. BARTLETT. I yield 1 minute to my good friend from Georgia (Mr.
Gingrey).
Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Chairman, I rise today in support of
amendment No. 8, the Bartlett-Flake amendment, to H.R. 4310.
The amendment will prevent the DOD from requiring contractors to sign
expensive union-favoring project labor agreements as a condition of
winning Federal construction contracts for projects authorized by the
bill.
Under a PLA, the construction firm must agree to sign a union
collective bargaining agreement, whether it's unionized or not, before
it can bid on a government project. PLAs can result in increased costs
for contractors and taxpayers by as much as 18 percent and cause
unnecessary procurement delays and political favoritism in the Federal
procurement process.
At a time when the Department of Defense is facing devastating
across-the-board cuts, it simply does not make sense to encourage PLAs.
I urge my colleagues to support the amendment.
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
Ohio (Mr. LaTourette).
Mr. LaTOURETTE. I thank the gentleman very much for yielding.
We've seen this amendment a number of times in the 112th Congress,
and, sadly, it doesn't get any better. It's based upon the
misconception that somehow PLAs are costing the taxpayer money.
Definitive research was done by the Department of Veterans Affairs
that concluded that it really depends on what part of the country you
are in and whether you have a heavily unionized workforce in your area
or you don't. They concluded that PLAs are productive and actually come
in on time and under budget in areas where you have a
[[Page H3019]]
heavy unionized workforce and not so much in areas where you don't. And
that makes sense because you have to bring people in to do the work.
The amendment, I think, is being billed as ``we just want people
given a choice,'' but come on. The people that are advocating this hate
PLAs. They don't want PLAs. They want to kill project labor agreements.
So this was craftily drafted by the Associated Builders and Contractors
to pretend that we're going to give people a choice when they really
don't want people to have a choice.
Please reject this. We don't have to go out. And the President's
executive order is clear. All it says is you have to consider PLAs in
the mix. And I urge us to reject the amendment.
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, maybe it's because I am a scientist, but
I'm having some trouble understanding how an amendment that
specifically says that it is nondiscriminatory, that it's going to be
totally agnostic to whether an organization is PLA or not PLA, somehow
excludes PLAs in contention. That is certainly not what the amendment
does.
I think this is a very commonsense amendment. I think that very few
Americans would like to exclude nearly 90 percent of American workers
in contention for Federal contracts. This is a fair, commonsense
amendment, and I urge it's acceptance by both sides.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, to conclude, again, there is a myth that
somehow President Obama's executive order has swept through all the
Federal agencies, and PLAs are now a mandated requirement. The fact of
the matter is that is not the way the executive order reads. The
Department of Defense has, in fact, granted only one PLA since
President Obama's executive order was issued in January of 2009. As Mr.
Lynch said, that executive order exempts projects $25 million or less.
I would be happy to invite Members to my district to a military base
where there has not been one PLA contract; although, we've done a
number of projects on our Navy base.
So the fact is that the option exists today. This amendment would
remove that option to the Department of Defense, which, again, has
obviously exercised it very judiciously because they've only done one
PLA since January of 2009.
Again, I urge Members to reject this amendment which handcuffs the
Department of Defense to set up prehiring agreements that can help
veterans, the local workforce, and apprenticeship programs for young
Americans who want to get an opportunity to learn a building trade.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Bartlett).
The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the ayes
appeared to have it.
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Maryland
will be postponed.
Amendment No. 9 Offered by Mr. Conyers

The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from Michigan (Mr. Conyers) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Michigan.
Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Chairman, I am joined on this amendment by my
colleague from Minnesota, Mr. Keith Ellison.
This amendment is simple in that it merely terminates the most
expensive weapons system of the Department of Defense in its history,
that is, terminating the F 35B Joint Strike Fighter.
Well, why? Well, because there are many other planes that have
capabilities that rival the F 35B and yet cost far less to buy and
operate. Our amendment would save $50 billion over the life of this
program.
The termination of this program has been recommended by so many
groups. I will mention a few: The Project on Government Oversight,
Taxpayers for Common Sense, the Cato Institute, the Center for American
Progress, the Public Interest Research Group, the National Taxpayers
Union, our colleague Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, and the Bowles-
Simpson Commission. Please join us in a very simple idea.
I reserve the balance of my time.
{time} 1710
Mr. McKEON. I rise, Mr. Chairman, to claim the time in opposition to
the amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself 1 minute.
Mr. Chairman, I oppose the Conyers amendment. The F 35B is a short
takeoff and vertical landing variant of the F 35 stealth fighter, and
it's in the final stages of development and has entered low-rate
initial production. The F 35B will operate from large deck amphibious
ships as well as have the capability to operate from forward operating
bases and damaged air strips to support Marine Corps ground maneuver
forces ashore.
The Commandant of the Marine Corps, General Amos, wrote to the
committee yesterday and said:
The importance of the F 35B short takeoff vertical landing
variant to the Marine Corps and the Nation cannot be
overstated.
The F 35B has made significant progress in the last year, under
General Amos' guidance, by completing all of the plan test points in
2011 and accomplishing 260 vertical landings. If passed, this amendment
could have major negative impacts to our Nation's future combat power,
increase the cost of the overall F 35 program, and negatively affect
the eight international program partners in foreign military sales.
[[Page H3020]]
I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the Conyers amendment.
Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Chairman, I yield 2 minutes to my cosponsor of the
amendment, the gentleman from Minnesota (Mr. Ellison).
Mr. ELLISON. I don't stand up here before you representing myself as
some great expert on airplanes, but I am a Member of this body who is
very concerned about the deficit and about spending. And we must save
money, particularly where we need to.
Now, when the Simpson-Bowles Commission says that this particular
airplane is not necessary and should be cut--and recommendation 47,
cancel the Marine Corps version of the F 35--I have to stop and take
notice. When other organizations, many of which are fairly conservative
groups--Taxpayers for Common Sense, the Cato Institute--no bleeding
heart liberals there--the Project for Government Oversight, the
National Taxpayers Union, the Project on Defense Alternatives, and the
Center for American Progress, all agree that this is a wasteful program
which we can save money with, I think we've got to stop and we've got
to take notice.
Now I notice my colleague on the other side of the aisle was making
very good points, and they sound very similar to some points I read
earlier today from a memo from somebody from Lockheed Martin. Lockheed
Martin is a private contractor who is making the program.
The talking points that they sent out are essentially arguing so that
they can ensure a commercial success of their particular project, which
they have a financial interest in. But they make no claim of cost. They
do not say that this is an exorbitant expense that people who have an
eye toward budget are saying is not worth the money.
We're not asking for the F 35A or F 35C to be cut. But we are saying
that this particular program, where there is a diverse and broad range
of parties who say that this is not a necessary program, should be cut
and can be replaced by other good alternatives, and I think we have
need to pay attention to that. I'm sure my friends who repeat
constantly that, We're broke, we're broke, we're broke, would agree.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to my friend and
colleague, a member of the committee and the chairman of the Veterans'
Affairs Committee, the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Miller).
Mr. MILLER of Florida. I first want to start off by inviting my
colleagues that oppose the F 35B to visit Eglin Air Force Base in the
Florida Panhandle, home of the 33rd Fighter Wing, where the sixth
operational F 35B was recently delivered. The aircraft is performing
well, and this year it is exceeding program expectations.
The F 35B is the tactical strike aircraft that will, in fact, enable
our marines to defeat and deter advanced threats well into the future.
The groups that you don't hear the opponents talk about is the fact
that the President supports it, the Secretary of Defense says we need
it, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff says we need it, the
Commandant of the Marine Corps says we need it. Nobody is saying that
the F 18 out there is not a highly capable fourth-generation aircraft,
but it has been meeting our needs for three decades now. The F 35B is
designed to defeat the threats of our adversaries that they are
developing today.
If we are to maintain our air superiority and defeat 21st century
threats, we need more than a 20th century aircraft.
Mr. CONYERS. I yield myself 1\1/2\ minutes.
An incredible number of organizations and people, both Democratic and
Republican Members of the House and Senate, have called the F 35B
program a scandal and a tragedy--and that is quoting the senior Senator
from Arizona, Senator McCain--and Under Secretary Frank Kendall has
referred to the process of developing and producing the F 35 as
``acquisition malpractice.''
And then, even worse, the serious performance issues that caused in
2010 Secretary Gates to stop production and place the program on 2
years probation. And according to the Department's figures, the F 35B
has driven cost overruns and is directly responsible for scheduled
delays in the overall development program. And it isn't even qualified
to participate in close air support mission for the Marine Corps' need.
It's far too vulnerable for this role, which requires low, slow flying.
The Marines would be much better served to utilize the Army's excess A
10s, which have a far superior range and payload capability.
The Acting CHAIR. The time of the gentleman has expired.
Mr. McKEON. I yield 1 minute to my friend and colleague, the ranking
member on the committee, the gentleman from Washington (Mr. Smith).
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Without question, the F 35 has been a
troubled program. It's been more expensive than we would like it to be
and has underperformed. It is getting better, as the chairman
mentioned.
There are a number of problems with this amendment, however. First of
all, in replacing the F 35B--that's the Marine Corps variant; it's a
vertical takeoff plane. I know Mr. Kline will do a much better job of
explaining this in a moment than I will. The Marine Corps is an
expeditionary force. They need to insert themselves. That's why they
need a vertical takeoff plane. The F 18 that is proposed to replace it
is not a vertical takeoff. It is not a replacement for the F 35B.
Second, the F 35 is a vastly more capable plane than the F 18. It is
all about stealth and being able to get in on targets. The F 18 cannot
get to the areas that the F 35 could get to to deal with adversaries
like Iran or North Korea and those surface-to-air missiles. It is a
much more capable plane.
If we cut this variant, we will also jeopardize the entire program,
not just this variant. Our foreign partners are likely to withdraw. It
will undermine our per-unit cost to the point where sustaining the
program will be very difficult.
It is unfortunate at this point the degree to which we have to rely
on this program. But it's going to be 95 percent of our fighter attack
aircraft fleet in 10 years. We have to make it work. Therefore, I
oppose this amendment.
Mr. McKEON. I yield 1 minute to my friend and colleague, a member of
the committee, chairman of the Education Committee, and a marine pilot,
the gentleman from Minnesota (Mr. Kline).
Mr. KLINE. I thank the gentleman for yielding.
Mr. Chairman, I rise today to oppose the gentleman's amendment and
impress upon my colleagues the importance of the short takeoff vertical
landing capability of the F 35B and its contribution to the continued
success of the United States Marine Corps.
Mr. Chairman, so many years ago, as a young marine and a young marine
pilot, I remember watching a jump jet--a Harrier--hovering over the
ground. That Harrier, that AV 8A, went from being a novelty to growing
and maturing to becoming an essential, integral part of the Marine air-
ground team. That Harrier today is old and getting outdated and needs
to be replaced.
Similarly, I've watched the magic of the FA 18, a fantastic, top-of
the-line, frontline fighter. Terrific aircraft. It can't take off and
land vertically. It doesn't have the capability. And we need those
capabilities that the ranking member, Mr. Smith, talked about--the
stealth capability, the advanced capability--to become that integral
part of the Marine air-ground team.
So I encourage my colleagues to support the continued development of
the F 35B and oppose the gentleman's amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California has one minute
remaining.
{time} 1720
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to my friend and
colleague, a member of the committee, the gentleman from Connecticut
(Mr. Courtney).
Mr. COURTNEY. Mr. Chairman, I thank the chairman for yielding me this
1 minute.
Again, all of the points about why this program, which was struggling
a couple of years ago, has now really shown great promise in terms of
the tests that show that a lot of the criticisms that we've heard on
the floor are, to some degree, out of date, with all due respect to the
proponents.
I think it is important for people to recognize that we made a
decision as a
[[Page H3021]]
country a number of years ago to cancel the F 22 program, that the
fifth generation program of the future is going to be the F 35. And
there are many other nations around the world, frankly, that are
watching this debate--Australia, our European allies--who are all going
to participate in the Joint Strike Fighter program. I think it is
critically important that we make a statement that we are going to move
forward with this program. Their navies and their aircraft carriers are
also going to be investing in these platforms. And, again, with the
progress that is being made, I think it is important for us to send a
strong signal internationally that this is a program that America is
going to continue to invest in.
Again, I respectfully rise to oppose this amendment and urge a ``no''
vote.
Mr. McKEON. I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Chair, I rise in strong opposition to the
Ellison/Conyers amendment.
Simply put, if the goal is to deprive the Marine Corps of the Short
Take-Off Vertical Landing variant of the F 35, designed to replace its
aging Harriers and F 18's--while simultaneously increasing the per unit
cost of Joint Strike Fighters--then this amendment achieves it.
The STOVL variant is desperately needed for the execution of short
takeoffs and vertical landings in combat deployments aboard amphibious
assault ships and in austere conditions ashore.
It will provide the Marines with a much more capable tactical fighter
force that meets the future threats facing our nation.
This misguided amendment is opposed by the Department of Defense and
the Marine Corps, not only because it would invest in yesterday's
technology at the expense of tomorrow's, but because the F 35B has
performed exceedingly well over the past 18 months, testing ahead of
schedule in both 2011 and 2012.
Because the F 35B is urgently needed by the Marine Corps and our
international partners, I urge my colleagues to defeat this amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Conyers).
The amendment was rejected.
Amendment No. 10 Offered by Mr. Quigley
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 10
printed in House Report 112 485.
Mr. QUIGLEY. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of subtitle C of title I, add the following new
section:
SEC. 132. ELIMINATION OF AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FOR
PROCUREMENT OF V 22 OSPREY AIRCRAFT.
Notwithstanding the amounts set forth in the funding tables
in division D, the amount authorized to be appropriated in
section 101 for aircraft procurement, Navy, as specified in
the corresponding funding table in division D, is hereby
reduced by $1,303,120,000, with the amount of the reduction
to be derived from Line 009 V 22 (Medium Lift) as set forth
in the table under section 4101. The amount of such reduction
shall not be available for any purpose other than deficit
reduction.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 661, the gentleman
from Illinois (Mr. Quigley) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Illinois.
Mr. QUIGLEY. Mr. Chairman, I rise to offer an amendment with my
friend from Illinois (Mr. Gutierrez) to cut funding for the V 22 Osprey
and put the savings toward deficit reduction.
As many know, the Osprey has a long and troubled past. According to a
2009 GAO report, the Osprey was not suited to fly safely in extreme
heat, excessive sand, or under enemy fire. The GAO also found that the
Osprey was 186 percent over budget, costing over $100 million per unit
to produce, or five times more than the Sea Knight helicopter it was
designed to replace.
More recently, the Pentagon testing found that the readiness rate of
the V 22 was well below that of traditional aircraft, noting:
Its average mission capable rate was 53 percent from June
2007 to May 2010, well below the required rate of 82 percent.
Sadly, due to these severe shortcomings, the V 22 has taken the lives
of 36 individuals, including 31 servicemembers. Just last month, two
marines lost their lives when an Osprey crashed in Morocco.
Now, I understand that since the 2009 report, a number of
improvements have been made. Costs are being reduced and safety is
being improved. I also understand the unique benefits the V 22 can
provide to our servicemembers, especially for rescue operations. But
these operations can be completed with less expensive helicopters. And
here's the bottom line: we're emerging from a recession. We have a
deficit topping $1 trillion for 4 straight years, and we have limited
resources, which means we have to make choices.
As we look to reduce our deficit, we have to put everything on the
table, including defense. Defense spending comprises close to 20
percent of our budget and yet this Defense authorization completely
exempts any cuts from defense. In fact, it actually increases spending
by over $4 billion over the President's request.
We have to take a hard look at what we are spending and ask
ourselves: Is this essential? Given its continued cost overruns, poor
safety record, and the fact that it can be replaced with less expensive
helicopters, I think it is clear that the V 22 is not essential. At
best it's suboptimal. It is certainly not essential. And I'm not alone.
President George H.W. Bush tried to zero out funding for the V 22, but
Congress wouldn't let him. Former Defense Secretary Dick Cheney tried
to zero out funding for the V 22, but Congress wouldn't let him. And
now the President's Bipartisan Fiscal Commission, the Bipartisan Policy
Commission, and the Sustainable Defense Task Force have all recommended
cutting the V 22 and replacing it with less expensive MH 60
helicopters.
But the reality is one of the reasons we block cuts to the V 22 is
because 2,000 companies make supply parts for the Osprey from 40
States. I get it. The Department of Defense has become a jobs program.
If all we're worried about is job creation, we'd be better off building
bridges and transit programs because in the end we have to remember the
big picture. Choosing to fund this over-budget, dangerous, nonessential
plane means cuts in other vital areas such as education,
infrastructure, and health care.
I encourage my colleagues to join me in scrutinizing this budget,
setting priorities, and cutting programs that aren't essential in order
to protect ones that are. This Defense authorization bill includes a
long list of nonessential programs, all of which should be cut. But a
vote for my amendment to cut the over-budget, under-performing V 22
Osprey is a step in the right direction.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I rise to claim the time in opposition.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. McKEON. I yield 1 minute to my friend and colleague, a member of
the committee, the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Bartlett).
Mr. BARTLETT. Mr. Chairman, if we don't buy these aircraft, it
doesn't mean that we won't be buying other rotorcraft because there are
missions that must be accomplished. This airplane will replace the CH
46E, and compared to the CH 46E, it has four times the range and
carries twice as many combat-loaded personnel.
So the gentleman's goal of reducing spending, his amendment might
result in exactly the opposite because obviously for many missions this
will be far and away the most efficient aircraft.
Mr. Chairman, we need to reject this amendment because if we pass the
amendment, it could very well result in increased costs to our
military, not decreased costs, and less efficiency on many missions.
Mr. QUIGLEY. I continue to reserve.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield at this time 1 minute to the
ranking member of the committee, the gentleman from Washington (Mr.
Smith).
Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Chairman, the V 22 was a troubled
program. Certainly before it was finally developed, it went through a
number of difficulties. But as the gentleman mentioned in offering the
amendment, it has gotten over those difficulties; and, in fact, has
been deployed in Afghanistan for a very long time. I was in
Afghanistan, and I rode on a V 22. And so
[[Page H3022]]
it obviously can perform in desert environments. I was down in the
Helmand province, and it is a very capable plane.
Again it has to do with the Marine Corps and the Marine Corps'
capabilities. They are an expeditionary force. The vertical takeoff and
landing ability of the V 22 is critical to what they do. As Mr.
Bartlett pointed out, it has longer range and greater capacity, and
properly deployed and properly used, can actually make it cheaper than
buying more helicopters that are necessary to accomplish that mission.
It is a necessary program, certainly necessary for the Marine Corps. I
would urge opposition to the amendment.
Mr. QUIGLEY. I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to my friend and
colleague, the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Thornberry), the vice chairman
of the committee.
Mr. THORNBERRY. Mr. Chairman, I have before me an article from
defense.aol.com from just a few months ago which was written by Richard
Whittle, who wrote a whole book on the V 22. And as the editor says,
this is as close to ground truth on the V 22 as one can get.
What he says is the marines and the Air Force Special Operations
Command have been flying it in combat zones for 4 years, and they love
it. He goes on to talk about problems in the early years, but the
critics went to sleep in the middle of the story. In other words, they
have not recognized the significant improvements that several people
have talked about.
Since October 1, 2001, the military has lost 405 helicopters, 99
percent of them have not been V 22s; and yet this amendment comes only
against the V 22 when it turns out the redesigned, re-tested Osprey
safety record is the safest rotorcraft the Marine Corps flies based on
mishaps per 100,000 flight hours.
When it comes to cost, since 2008 they are under budget and are
actually going to save the taxpayers over $200 million versus what was
budgeted. This plane is working well. This amendment is behind the
times.
Mr. QUIGLEY. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to my friend and
colleague, the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Meehan).
{time} 1730
Mr. MEEHAN. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for yielding.
Mr. Chairman, I rise strongly to oppose the Quigley amendment in this
particular matter.
I'm grateful for the opportunity to speak on behalf of the V 22, on
behalf of the marines who are using it in the theater of battle where
it has proven itself. Indeed, if this argument were taking place in
2009, there might be a case to be made, but it's being made in 2012,
where, in fact, I've got the testimony of the Commandant of the Marine
Corps.
The Osprey has given the United States unprecedented agility and
operational reach, unmatched by any other tactical aircraft. The Osprey
is the cornerstone of the Marine ground task force. More significantly,
with regard to cost savings, it has--procured under a multiyear
procurement contract, it will actually save a proposed $825 million
over single-year contracts, providing required capability for the
Marine Corps. In addition, if we tried to replace it, there would be 74
percent more cost associated.
Reliability, cost, dependability, proof. I urge my colleagues to
support the retention of the V 22.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Illinois has 1 minute remaining.
The gentleman from California has 1 minute remaining and the right to
close.
Mr. QUIGLEY. Mr. Chairman, the fact remains, studies still show this
a dangerous vehicle. Studies still show it is suboptimal. Studies still
show it is wildly over cost.
I want to help marines. I want to save marine lives. That's why this
amendment is appropriate. It is, in the end, still dangerous pork with
wings.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. McKEON. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to my friend and
colleague, the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Brady), a member of the
committee.
Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for allowing me
the time.
Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition, along with my colleague, Mr.
Fattah, to this amendment.
The V 22 Osprey program is a truly revolutionary system that is being
used around the world today by both our United States Marine Corps and
the Special Operations Command in support of our Nation's missions.
This amendment would eliminate the only cost-effective way to replace
the fleet of aging medium-lift aircraft in our inventory. Canceling V
22 does not remove the requirement to replace legacy CH 46 and HH 53
airframes. It would only interrupt the carefully planned transition to
a more capable and more cost-efficient alternative--at an additional
expense to the American taxpayer.
I quote the United States Air Force Special Operations Command
Commander, Lieutenant General Donald Wurster:
This aircraft is the single most significant transformation
of Air Force Special Operations since the introduction of the
helicopter. Nearly every mission we have faced in the last 20
years would have been done better and faster with the V 22.
Mr. Chairman, who are we, sitting here guarded and completely safe,
to not listen to the brave men and women and their commander and not
give them everything they need and request to keep them safe and give
them the tools to do their job?
I urge you to support the President's budget request and vote ``no''
on the amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Quigley).
The amendment was rejected.
The Acting CHAIR. The Committee will rise informally.
The Speaker pro tempore (Mrs. Hartzler) assumed the chair.
