General Leave
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all
Members may have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their
remarks and include extraneous material on the further consideration of
H.R. 5293, and that I may include tabular material on the same.
The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Katko). Is there objection to the
request of the gentleman from New Jersey?
[[Page H3926]]
There was no objection.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to House Resolution 783 and rule
XVIII, the Chair declares the House in the Committee of the Whole House
on the state of the Union for the further consideration of the bill,
H.R. 5293.
Will the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Duncan) kindly resume the
chair.
{time} 1017
In the Committee of the Whole
Accordingly, the House resolved itself into the Committee of the
Whole House on the state of the Union for the further consideration of
the bill (H.R. 5293) making appropriations for the Department of
Defense for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2017, and for other
purposes, with Mr. Duncan of Tennessee in the chair.
The Clerk read the title of the bill.
The CHAIR. When the Committee of the Whole rose on Wednesday, June
15, 2016, a request for a recorded vote on amendment No. 40 printed in
House Report 114-623, offered by the gentleman from Michigan (Mr.
Conyers) had been postponed.
Amendment No. 41 Offered by Mr. Yoho
The CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 41 printed in
House Report 114-623.
Mr. YOHO. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of the bill (before the short title) insert the
following:
Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act may
be used with respect to Libya in contravention of the War
Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 1541 et seq.), including for the
introduction of United States Armed Forces into hostilities
in Libya, into situations in Libya where imminent involvement
in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, or
into Libyan territory, airspace, or waters while equipped for
combat, in contravention of the congressional consultation
and reporting requirements of sections 3 and 4 of the War
Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. 19 1542 and 1543).
The CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentleman from
Florida (Mr. Yoho) and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Florida.
Mr. YOHO. Mr. Chairman, this bipartisan amendment will block funds
from being used to engage in hostilities in Libya in contravention of
the War Powers Resolution. This amendment simply reaffirms the
constitutional role of Congress in determining when U.S. forces will be
introduced into hostilities when the U.S. has not been attacked and is
not in imminent danger of attack.
What this amendment would do is reaffirm that the administration does
not have authority to target anyone in Libya who is not ISIS or al
Qaeda or an associated force to either without getting explicit
authority from Congress.
More than 4 years after a U.S.-led NATO military intervention helped
Libyan rebels topple the authoritarian government of Muammar Qadhafi,
Libya remains a failed state that is a terrorist safe haven. Given
that, U.S. military involvement in Libya may deepen in 2016 to combat
ISIS and potentially provide support to the national security forces of
an emergent Government of National Accord. It is imperative that,
before U.S. military involvement is increased, any administration come
before Congress for an authorization.
I want to reiterate that this amendment will not limit the ability to
go after ISIS or al Qaeda.
Mr. Chairman, I urge all my colleagues to support this amendment, and
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to the
amendment.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. YOHO. Mr. Chairman, I yield to the gentleman from Michigan (Mr.
Conyers).
Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Chairman, I thank the gentleman for yielding. I
thank our leader on this side, the gentleman from Indiana (Mr.
Visclosky).
Members of the House, I urge support for this amendment which will
help the Libya War Powers amendment, which will help to ensure that
Congress can carry out its constitutional duty to authorize war. This
amendment is the same language that is already included in the bill
regarding military action in Syria, and it has the same rationale:
Congress must be consulted when our troops are being sent into harm's
way.
This amendment may not block the Obama administration from taking
action against al Qaeda or ISIS in Libya, but it will require that the
administration come to Congress if it seeks to send our troops into
Libya for any other purpose.
When our country engaged in military intervention in Libya in 2011
without congressional approval, the result was that Libya became mired
in a bloody civil war. This mistake could have been avoided with
congressional debate. This underscores the wisdom of our constitutional
Founders, who wanted robust congressional debate before we commit
troops to combat in situations where we have not been attacked.
Now there is growing talk that the United States may have to support
the internationally recognized government in Libya, whose legitimacy is
challenged by other elements in Libya. So I urge passage of this
amendment to ensure that Congress has an opportunity to weigh in on the
rule of our Armed Forces in the Libyan turmoil going forward.
If Congress wants to have a say, we must speak out before military
action has commenced. I urge you to do so today by passing my
amendment.
Mr. YOHO. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I rise in opposition to the amendment.
Mr. Chair, I do respect the strong feelings of those gentlemen who
proposed this amendment.
In order to prosecute the global war on terrorism, one of our primary
current missions, the President, our Commander in Chief, relies on
existing authorization of military force. Any attempt to deny funding
for efforts in Libya would allow ISIL outposts in northern Africa to
continue to flourish, and, indeed, they are there.
This AUMF, better known as the 9/11 AUMF, is currently used by the
President, the Department of Defense, and the United States military
forces to address conducting campaigns against terrorism worldwide. It
has been used by this President and by his predecessor, Bush, since
2001.
An amendment of this nature would tie our Nation's hands and the
ability of our Commander in Chief to address worldwide terrorism. This
amendment would essentially cripple our ability to conduct
counterterrorism operations with partner nations, with our allies,
against Islamic extremists affiliated with terrorism.
Once again, we know what the gentlemen are trying to do, and we honor
that effort; but this is a major policy decision, and so, as a
consequence, I oppose their amendment.
Mr. Chairman, I yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman
from Indiana (Mr. Visclosky), my ranking member.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the gentleman's yielding,
and I do rise to join with the chairman in opposition to the amendment.
I appreciate the intent of the gentleman from Florida as well as the
gentleman from Michigan. I will be rising in support of two amendments
subsequently this morning relative to having a fulsome debate about the
use of force internationally.
It is past time for Congress to have that debate. There is no
question about it. I agree with my colleagues. However, in this
instance, because we do have, for all practical purposes, a failed
state, international institutions in other countries who are involved
with us are trying to address the issue.
I have been told innumerable times from representatives of other
nations, if we do not lead, they will have no place to follow. So I do
not think the amendment should be supported at this point in time, and
I do join with my chairman.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. YOHO. Mr. Chairman, I respect the opinions of my chairman and
ranking member, but I would surmise that if we go back to when we did
the no-fly zone in Libya, we used the AUMF from 2001 and 2003, the 9/11
AUMF, and that has led to a failed state because the President did not
come to this body to ask for authorization. This body did not challenge
the President, and it has
[[Page H3927]]
led to a failed state in Libya that now is a recruiting center for
ISIS.
So when does this stop? When does Congress take this power back so we
don't put people in harm's way? Had they come to this body, Libya may
still be run by Muammar Qadhafi. And I am not saying he is a good guy,
But ISIS probably would not be a recruiting center in Libya as a failed
state.
So I urge my colleagues, let's bring this debate to the House floor,
and let's have that debate so that we don't keep muddying the waters
and spreading and stretching an AUMF from 15 years ago.
I think it is irrational, and I think it is inappropriate for this
body to continue with failed policies. It is time to get this right.
The American people are counting on us, and our military is in harm's
way.
Mr. Chairman, I encourage people to support this amendment, and I
yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I urge opposition to this amendment,
and I yield back the balance of my time.
The CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman
from Florida (Mr. Yoho).
The amendment was rejected.
Amendment No. 42 Offered by Ms. Gabbard
The CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 42 printed in
House Report 114-623.
Ms. GABBARD. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of the bill (before the short title) insert the
following:
Sec. __. None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made
available in this Act may be used to fund assistance
authorized by section 1209 of the Carl Levin and Howard P.
``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291; 128 Stat. 3541).
The CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentlewoman from
Hawaii (Ms. Gabbard) and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from Hawaii.
Ms. GABBARD. Mr. Chairman, I would like to thank the chairman and
ranking member for allowing us to bring up this important issue,
basically this amendment and the failed Syria train and equip program.
The failures of this program have been well documented and have
resulted, ultimately, in strengthening groups like ISIS and al Qaeda
with American taxpayer-funded weapons.
Many of us voted against this program when it first came before
Congress in 2014. We predicted the program would fail, and it did. We
ended up arming so-called moderate opposition fighters who did not
share our objective of fighting ISIS. Instead, they were and remain
primarily focused on overthrowing Assad, which, if successful, would
strengthen groups like ISIS and al Qaeda, allowing them to take over
all of Syria, creating an even worse humanity crisis and an even
greater threat to the world.
The current program this bill funds is even worse. It only vets the
commanders of so-called moderate Syrian opposition forces. Once the
commander finishes some very limited training, then the U.S. provides
arms and equipment to the entire brigade with no vetting or screening
of the thousands of men who make up these units. Most concerning of all
is nowhere in this bill or in the NDAA does it state that this program
is limited to training and equipping only those who are fighting
against ISIS and al Qaeda.
Our strategy against fighting ISIS and al Qaeda in Syria right now is
not working.
{time} 1030
We are waging two wars in Syria, providing arms and support to groups
that have opposing objectives. The first war is a counterproductive one
to overthrow the Syrian Government of Assad, which must end. And the
second is our war to defeat ISIS, al Qaeda, and other jihadist groups,
which we must win. By helping groups fighting to overthrow Assad, we
are essentially helping ISIS and al Qaeda achieve their objective of
taking over all of Syria.
Some may argue that this program is the only tool we have to fight
against ISIS and al Qaeda in Syria. This is false. If this amendment is
passed, we can end this failed program and continue to support trusted
partners on the ground, like the Kurds and Syrian Arabs, who have
proven their effectiveness and commitment to our shared objective of
defeating ISIS and al Qaeda through other counterterrorism authorities
and funds.
I ask my colleagues to support this amendment and vote ``yes'' on
Gabbard-Welch amendment No. 42.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to the
amendment.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in strong opposition to the
gentlewoman's amendment.
The United States needs to train those who are willing to fight ISIL
in Syria so that the United States doesn't have to, so that we don't
have to send more of our troops over there to do the job.
The Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant was formed in April of 2013,
growing out of al Qaeda in Iraq, and since has become one of the main
jihadist groups in Syria and Iraq.
Although this bill contains no direct language to fund the Syria
Train and Equip Program, funding is available in the bill to fund
vetted opposition. Syrian citizens have experienced bombing by its own
government, the overrun of cities by ISIL and ISIL's actions to
eradicate many of the country's many ethnic and religious authorities,
as well as we know, their well-known destruction of sacred and historic
sites. They will stop at nothing to promote hate and, yes, perhaps do
things here in the United States.
This amendment would cripple our ability to conduct counterterrorism
operations with partner nations. For the record, U.S. air strikes have
killed over 25,000 ISIL fighters. Without this funding, these air
strikes would cease. ISIL footing in Iraq and Syria is a springboard
for terrorism worldwide.
This amendment would effectively eliminate the President's ability--
our commander in chief's ability--to address this threat. And it would
allow its further growth, ISIL's further growth, in North Africa, the
Horn of Africa, and elsewhere, and leave our country and our allies
even more vulnerable to attacks.
I strongly oppose the amendment.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Ms. GABBARD. Mr. Chairman, I yield to the gentleman from Vermont (Mr.
Welch), my colleague.
Mr. WELCH. Mr. Chairman, may I inquire how much time is remaining?
The CHAIR. The gentlewoman from Hawaii has 2\1/2\ minutes remaining.
Mr. WELCH. Mr. Chairman, first of all, I want to thank Congresswoman
Gabbard. She has a practical battle-tested basis of experience to
propose this amendment. She served a tour in Iraq, and she served in
Kuwait.
This is not a question about whether the proponents of this amendment
reserve any desire to go after ISIS in any way that we can, nor does it
mean that we want to restrict our help to responsible partners, like
the Kurdish Peshmerga. What this is about is identifying a program that
was designed for failure. It was predicted by Congresswoman Gabbard
that this train and assist program for unidentified Syrian allies, so-
called, would fail. It would fail because we didn't have a nation-state
that we were dealing with. Train and equip is a good program when it is
with a responsible government, or one trying to be a responsible
government--maybe in Afghanistan, maybe in Iraq.
What we have here is a civil war. We have al Qaeda, we have al-
Nusrah, we have people fighting Assad, we have people fighting each
other. The CIA identified 1,500 different groups. And we are asking our
military, our CIA, who don't really speak the language--some do--to
identify who will be ``the good rebels'' in what is a caldron of
conflict.
The problem here is that we spent $500 million and basically ended up
training 100 people. They drifted off into the battlefield and were
quickly killed or captured or defected. So what we have is not
something where we are predicting failure, we are having something that
did fail. And now we are doubling down on it, taking $250 million, and
adding to a program that doesn't work.
[[Page H3928]]
Why don't we spend that money doing something that can work?
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I continue to reserve the balance of
my time.
Ms. GABBARD. Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the comments from my
colleague from Vermont.
I would just like to make a point of clarification that this
amendment would not stop our air strikes against ISIS. Those air
strikes are funded through funds for Operation Inherent Resolve, which
this amendment has nothing to do with. This amendment simply prohibits
funds that are solely directed towards the Syria Train and Equip
Program, section 1209.
Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I yield such time as he may consume
to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Visclosky), the ranking member.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, I thank the chairman for yielding, and
join the chairman in opposition to the amendment that has been offered.
There is no question that there were significant fundamental problems
with the first iteration of this program. This is a reconstituted
program, and I would like to make that clear to my colleagues.
Secondly, I want to make it clear that there is no authority under
this program to overthrow the Assad regime.
And the final point I would make, as the sponsor of the amendment, is
to mention support for the Kurds who are already fighting. That is
exactly what the reprogram does, and the amendment would cut off
funding for the Kurds.
For those reasons, I oppose the amendment.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I concur with the ranking member's
comments most strongly.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentlewoman from Hawaii (Ms. Gabbard).
The question was taken; and the Chair announced that the noes
appeared to have it.
Ms. GABBARD. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
The CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on
the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Hawaii will be postponed.
The Chair understands that amendment No. 43 will not be offered.
Amendment No. 44 Offered by Mr. McGovern
The CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 44 printed in
House Report 114-623.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of the bill (before the short title) insert the
following:
Sec. __. None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made
available in this Act may be obligated or expended for the
engagement of the United States Armed Forces in any combat
operation in either Iraq or Syria until an authorization for
the use of military force has been enacted that authorizes
such operation.
The CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentleman from
Massachusetts (Mr. McGovern) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Massachusetts.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself 1\1/2\ minutes.
Mr. Chairman, we have been reengaged in Iraq since June of 2014. We
have been in Syria since September of 2014. And, quite frankly, the
time to have debated an AUMF was before we became militarily engaged in
these two countries.
We have repeatedly heard from the leaders in this House that Congress
does, indeed, have a constitutional duty to do an AUMF and it would be
considered, but we have not done so. I believe that, barring the
passage of this amendment, which would force Congress to do the right
thing, we will never do an AUMF. Perhaps we lack the courage, or
perhaps we are satisfied to allow these wars to run on automatic pilot.
Our inaction is wrong. It is an insult to our troops. Whether you
want to expand these wars or end these wars, we should all agree that
we should vote on an AUMF.
This amendment simply says that if there is no AUMF, then there is no
money for combat operations. That gives us ample time during the rest
of this year to vote on an AUMF. There are no more excuses. Please,
please stop making excuses.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to the
amendment.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in strong opposition to the
McGovern-Lee amendment.
The fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Levant is being waged
using the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force, better known as
the 9/11 AUMF to prosecute the global war on terrorism. There are
soldiers on the ground as we speak. They are truly doing the work of
the Lord and the work for freedom, and we need to recognize that.
Our Nation needs to retain this validated congressionally approved
Authorization for Use of Military Force to contain the fight against
terrorism around the world. The Commander in Chief needs it.
This amendment makes a major policy change that does not belong in
our bill.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chairman, to justify wars in 2016 on an AUMF in
2001 is ludicrous.
I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from North Carolina (Mr.
Jones).
Mr. JONES. Mr. Chairman, I want to remind those on the floor today
that it was James Madison who clearly stated that the power to declare
war, including the power of judging the causes of war, is fully vested
in the legislature. That is us, the House of Representatives.
The McGovern amendment is an amendment of frustration because, as it
has already been said, we have not been permitted to meet our
constitutional responsibility to debate war policy for the country.
We have sent five letters to former Speaker Boehner asking for this
ability to have an AUMF on the floor for debate. No answer. This is a
bipartisan group who wrote the letter. We have now sent three letters
to Speaker Ryan asking that we meet our constitutional responsibility.
No answer. We are frustrated. We need to meet our constitutional
responsibility.
The last point I want to make very quickly. In December of this year,
we had Secretary Carter before the Armed Services Committee, on which I
serve, and we had General Dunford before the committee, on which I
serve. I asked them the question: Do you think that Congress should
debate and pass a new AUMF?
Let me give you Carter's answer: I think it is desirable to have a
new AUMF.
General Dunford: I absolutely believe that a clear and unequivocal
statement of support for the men and women in uniform that are
prosecuting the war is absolutely necessary. It would be so helpful if
we could pass a new AUMF.
So in closing, I say this: if we want to meet our constitutional
responsibility and we upheld our hands to swear to God that we would,
then let's not send our young men and women to die around the world
based on 2001 and 2002.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I yield to the gentleman from
Indiana (Mr. Visclosky), the ranking member, for any comments he may
wish to make.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the Chairman acknowledging
and yielding me time.
I rise in support of the amendment. There is no question of the
sacrifice being made by our troops. We, as Members of the Congress of
the United States, ought to clearly define the purpose of their
sacrifice.
The authority being used today was written in 2001. The world has
fundamentally changed. That act talked about using all necessary and
appropriate force against the persons or entity associated with the
September 11 attack.
I do think it is our responsibility to balance the powers of the
executive under the Constitution and have that fulsome debate.
If it was adopted tomorrow morning, it would have an effect on
funding. On
[[Page H3929]]
the best day possible, this bill does not become law until October 1.
That gives us plenty of time.
I appreciate the chair yielding.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chairman, I thank the ranking member.
Mr. Chairman, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentlewoman from
California (Ms. Lee), one of the sponsors of this amendment.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chairman, first, let me just say I rise in very strong
support of the McGovern-Jones-Lee amendment.
I want to thank the gentleman from Massachusetts for his strong,
steady, and bold leadership on this issue and issues of war and peace.
Mr. Chairman, this amendment is really simple. It would use the power
of the purse to prevent funding for combat operations in Iraq and Syria
unless an Authorization for Use of Military Force is enacted.
We all agree that ISIL must be degraded and dismantled. Then why is
Congress missing in action?
The 2001 authorization was specific to 9/11. I voted against it
because I knew it would be broadly interpreted, which it is. It is a
blank check.
{time} 1045
ISIL, though, did not even exist in 2001. Every day, more bombs fall,
and the battlefield expands. We have already spent more than $10
billion. That is $615,000 per hour.
Congress needs to show up for work, muster its courage, exercise its
constitutional responsibility for debate, and vote on the ongoing war
in Iraq and Syria. We owe nothing less to our brave men and women who
are in harm's way. It is past time to force a debate and vote on this
issue.
Again, I thank the gentleman for his tremendous leadership and for
continuing to beat the drum until we get this done.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chair, I inquire as to how much time remains.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from Massachusetts has 45 seconds remaining.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I move to strike the last word.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from Indiana is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I yield to the gentleman from Massachusetts
(Mr. McGovern).
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chair, I thank the ranking member for yielding
because this is debate, quite frankly, that we need to have, and we
need to have it in more than 10 minutes. If one supports this
amendment, we will have that debate.
Mr. Chair, this amendment is not about cutting out funds to our
troops. The underlying bill, interestingly, already does that come next
April. This amendment is about the dereliction of duty by Congress. If
Congress keeps voting for the money to send our men and women in
uniform to fight and die in Iraq and Syria, then it should have the
courage to debate and vote on an AUMF for those missions as the
Constitution of the United States demands of us. It is that simple.
We have heard from leaders of this Chamber over and over and over
again that they agree that we ought to debate an AUMF, but every time
we try to force the issue, there is another excuse. We are told that we
have to wait for the White House to propose an AUMF. They did. I don't
particularly like it--some may like it, and some may not--but we ought
to bring it to the floor. We ought to debate it and amend it and vote
on it. That is what we are supposed to do.
There is something very, very wrong about the fact that we have so
many men and women in harm's way right now--some of them who are losing
their lives because of their deployments--and we are content to do
nothing. We don't even talk about what is happening in Iraq and Syria.
We don't have these debates that we should be having.
All we are saying--and I don't care what your views are on these
wars--is that you ought to agree that we ought to have a debate. That
is what the McGovern-Jones-Lee-Amash-Garamendi amendment is all about.
America's men and women in uniform are doing their duty, and I
respectfully ask my colleagues to do theirs.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I urge opposition to the amendment.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from Massachusetts has 45 seconds remaining.
Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Chair, again, I would just say to my colleagues
that this is about our respecting the Constitution of the United
States. This is about respecting the service of our men and women whom
we have put in harm's way. We all know we should be doing this. We have
to have the guts and the courage to do it.
I urge the passage of my amendment.
Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
The CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman
from Massachusetts (Mr. McGovern).
The question was taken; and the Chair announced that the ayes
appeared to have it.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I demand a recorded vote.
The CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further proceedings on
the amendment offered by the gentleman from Massachusetts will be
postponed.
Amendment No. 45 Offered by Ms. Lee
The CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 45 printed in
House Report 114-623.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chair, I have an amendment at the desk.
The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
The text of the amendment is as follows:
At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the
following:
Sec. __. (a) None of the funds made available by this Act
may be used pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military
Force (Public Law 107-40; 50 U.S.C. 1541 note).
(b) Subsection (a) shall apply beginning on April 30, 2017.
The CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentlewoman from
California (Ms. Lee) and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from California.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chair, we are going to try again with a variation of
what we just discussed.
This is another amendment to reclaim our constitutional authority
over matters of war and peace, and I ask Members to support the Lee-
Jones-Welch amendment.
Our amendment is simple. It would require Congress to finally put
forth a new ISIL-specific Authorization for Use of Military Force by
April 30, 2017. That is the date when funding for the overly broad 2001
authorization would be restricted. Upon enactment into law--this would
be in October--Congress would have ample time--until April 30, 2017--to
come up with a new authorization.
Mr. Chair, 5,389 days have passed since Congress wrote a blank check
for endless war to any President, and Congress still hasn't acted. 678
days since we started, once again, to bomb Iraq in a war that Congress
has never debated or specifically authorized, and still Congress has
not acted. 632 days since we started bombing Syria, a nation not
covered by the 2002 or the 2001 AUMF--it is, clearly, not intended by
either of these two--and Congress still has not acted. 491 days since
President Obama sent Speaker Boehner a draft authorization, and still--
and now we have a new Speaker--Congress has not acted. And 33 days
since a United States Army captain filed a lawsuit that demands an
authorization for the war that he and other servicemembers are
fighting, and still Congress has not acted.
Mr. Chair, how many more days until we take the power to wage war and
return it to the American people through Congress?
Our brave servicemen and -women can't wait any longer. The American
people can't wait any longer.
Clearly, Congress must be required to act. This amendment would
require Congress to finally debate and vote on the nearly 2-year-long
war that is raging in the Middle East, a war that has already claimed
the lives of three brave servicemen. The House simply cannot continue
to abdicate its sacred constitutional responsibility to give the
American people a voice in matters of war and peace.
Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
[[Page H3930]]
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I rise in opposition to the amendment.
The CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, this is a major policy change that does
not belong in an appropriations bill.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chair, how much time do I have remaining?
The CHAIR. The gentlewoman from California has 2\1/2\ minutes
remaining.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chair, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Vermont
(Mr. Welch).
Mr. WELCH. Mr. Chair, as has been said by many of my colleagues, the
constitutional responsibility to declare war is that of Congress.
So how is it that this Congress and the Congresses that have preceded
us since the hostilities in the Middle East began have failed to even
debate an Authorization for Use of Military Force.
That is our duty. We are divided by many things, and we see the world
in different ways, but we all have a fundamental responsibility to
abide by the Constitution, which governs our conduct, the House of
Representatives--the Congress of the United States, the Representatives
of the people. The people are the ones, ultimately, who bear the burden
of any conflict, and they are entitled to our vote, yes or no, in
engaging in war.
The second thing: a lot of concern--sometimes legitimate, sometimes
debatable--as to overreach by an executive.
How is it that we can make that complaint if we cede our
constitutional responsibility by irresponsibly failing to exercise it
to an executive?
Congress must act.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chair, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from
California (Mr. Garamendi).
Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Chair, when I took my oath of office, the Speaker
handed me this Constitution.
Here, in Article I, it reads that it is the Congress of the United
States that declares war or not. Yet, as my friend from California said
so eloquently, days and days and years have gone by that the Congress
of the United States has abdicated its fundamental responsibility.
Perhaps the most awesome and important of our responsibilities is to
send our men and women onto the battlefield. Yet we have not done it.
The esteemed chairman of the Appropriations Committee said that this
is too important an issue to be in an appropriations bill. I could not
disagree more. The appropriations bill is about war, and there are
billions and billions of dollars in this appropriations bill to conduct
a war that is not authorized by Congress.
It seems to me to be absolutely essential that we take up our
responsibility--that we define what it is we want to accomplish in
Syria and Iraq and that we put aside the old authorizations that are
now 15 years old and that are, clearly, not only out of date, but are
inappropriate for what we are doing in the Middle East. It is our
responsibility. The Constitution of the United States says it is. There
are 535 of us who have sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United
States, and we have failed.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, how much time remains for the gentlewoman
from California (Ms. Lee)?
The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Holding). The time of the gentlewoman from
California has expired.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I move to strike the last word.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Indiana is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I spoke just previously on the past
amendment, and I will not repeat myself but will, simply, make two
observations.
Some of the changes that have occurred over the last 15 years include
the U.S. withdrawing its large number of troops and presence in Iraq;
although, additional troops are now moving to Iraq. Central Command is
working with partner nations to conduct targeted air strikes against
ISIL. Then, obviously, we are engaged in other activities around the
globe.
Circumstances have changed, and we ought to meet our constitutional
responsibility. I think the amendment that the gentlewoman has drafted
is elegant in the sense that she has picked the same date--that is,
April 30--that we have structured the OCO funding in this bill
ourselves. If we have enough time between now and April 30, 2017, for a
new administration and a new Congress to find moneys to fight the war,
we have enough time to have the authority to do the same.
I yield to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Lee).
Ms. LEE. I thank the gentleman for yielding and for his clarity on
this issue.
Mr. Chair, in the nearly 15 years, according to a Congressional
Research Service report, the AUMFs that we are discussing today--the
2001 and the 2002--have been used more than 37 times in 14 countries to
justify military actions. They have been used 18 times by President
Bush and 19 times by President Obama. This report only examines the
unclassified incidents.
How many other operations have been conducted without the knowledge
of Congress or the American people?
These authorizations have not only been used to justify wars that are
thousands of miles away, but they have also been used closer to home to
justify warrantless surveillance and wiretaps and the targeted killings
by drones, including of American citizens.
How can we ask our brave men and women in uniform to fight a war
while this Congress can't even muster the courage to debate it?
Again, every hour, we spend $615,000 on this war. Every day, more
bombs fall, the battlefield expands, and more American servicemembers
are put in harm's way.
How many more days until we do something about this complete and
utter abdication of our responsibility?
This is not a new issue for me or a new effort. I have been working
on this for years to end the reliance on the overly broad 2001
authorization blank check. That is why I couldn't vote for it. I am
pleased to say that this effort is growing in strength in bipartisan
numbers.
{time} 1100
Congress must finally take action to vote on a specific Authorization
for Use of Military Force in this new war to address the threat of
ISIL, and this amendment would require us to do just that. We wouldn't
have to do it until April 2017. We have plenty of time, plenty of time
to do it.
So let's stand up for the Constitution, our servicemen and -women,
and our national security by supporting the Lee-Jones-Welch amendment.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chair, recent disaster events in Yemen and,
most recently, frightening developments both in Iraq and Syria have
shown that terrorist affiliates and new terrorist groups are on the
rise. This amendment would effectively eliminate the President's
ability to address those threats and others that are coming our way,
and so I strongly oppose the gentlewoman's amendment.
I ask for opposition to the amendment.
I yield back the balance of my time.
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. Mr. Chair, 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. 46 Offered by Mr. Polis
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 46
printed in House Report 114-623.
Mr. POLIS. 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 the bill (before the short title), insert the
following:
Sec. __. (a) The total amount of appropriations made
available by this Act is hereby reduced by one percent.
(b) The reduction in subsection (a) shall not apply to
amounts made available--
(1) under title I for ``Military Personnel'';
(2) under title VI for ``Defense Health Program''; or
[[Page H3931]]
(3) under title IX.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentleman
from Colorado (Mr. Polis) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Colorado.
Mr. POLIS. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
At a time when all government entities are being asked to do more
with less, it is time we ask the United States military to make smart
cuts to our defense budget so we can live within our means. We can
eliminate inefficient and unnecessary programs while spending taxpayer
dollars responsibly and improving our national security.
My amendment just goes a very small way toward protecting the fiscal
security of our Nation, which is vital to our national security. My
amendment would give broad authority to reduce the overall amount of
money appropriated by this bill to 1 percent in the aggregate. I remind
everybody that a 1 percent reduction in the spending in this bill is
still above the original agreed-upon defense budget from the Budget
Control Act, so, again, Congress is appropriating more money than there
is in the Budget Control Act.
When we spend beyond our means, we make our Nation less secure, not
more secure, by making ourselves economically beholden to countries
like Saudi Arabia and China. Even with my amendment, this bill still
spends over $500 billion for defense, about as much as the rest of the
world combined spends on their militaries. This 1 percent reduction is
simply a compromise between the Budget Control Act levels and the
suggested levels in this bill. This bill, in its current form, funds
multiple accounts and weapons systems over the amount the military
itself requested. One percent is about $5 billion.
Now, there might be those who claim there is no possible way to find
that money in this bill. Look, I know a lot of Members here have
offered a number of ideas about how we can trim our overall defense
budget and improve our national security. There are high-profile
numbers, like the F-35 and LCS. There are also lower profile items.
When we spend on the military, we need to ask ourselves a couple of
questions. First and foremost, of course: Is it necessary and needed
for national security? And then, secondly: What is the trade-off, and
does it improve or worsen our national security to spend beyond our
means and borrow from Saudi Arabia and China?
There are many, many, many accounts in this bill where more money is
spent than is requested by the military itself. We can't allow
ourselves to be convinced that we can somehow magically sustain this
level of military spending and then turn around and say we are somehow
also concerned about the fiscal condition of our country.
This amendment is a small step, a compromise between the budget
control cap levels and the committee's mark. We don't have to choose
between protecting the homeland and fiscal responsibility. We can do
both. We will do both, and this amendment will make this happen.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I claim the time in opposition.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in strong opposition to the
gentleman's amendment. This amendment would force the Department to
absorb a reduction of more than $4 billion.
Mr. Chairman, we already have serious readiness gaps, and this
amendment would force a reduction of more than $2 billion to operation
and maintenance accounts, funding that supports key readiness programs
to prepare our troops for combat or also for peacetime missions,
including flight time, battle training, equipment and facility
maintenance, as well as base operations.
Furthermore, the amendment will result in a significant reduction to
research and development, equipment procurement, modernization, all of
which are crucial to our national security. These are investments that
protect our Nation from threats to freedom and democracy.
We are keenly aware that the United States and her allies continue to
face attacks and threats from terrorist organizations like ISIL and al
Qaeda and others that seek to do us harm, and our troops must be ready
to fight at all times against the enemy everywhere.
I oppose the amendment.
I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. POLIS. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentlewoman
from California (Ms. Lee), the cosponsor of this amendment and a leader
on this issue.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chairman, I thank the gentleman from Colorado for his
important and consistent work to bring financial sense to the Pentagon.
I rise to urge my colleagues to support the Polis-Lee amendment. This
amendment will help rein in unnecessary and bloated Pentagon spending
while protecting the pay or health benefit account of our brave
servicemembers and their families.
Over the last 15 years, Pentagon spending has ballooned by 50 percent
in real terms, and we still haven't even been able to audit the
Pentagon. You talk about waste, fraud, and abuse? My goodness. One
percent, this is a pittance in terms of what we need to do, but we have
got to start somewhere.
Pentagon spending now consumes more than half of the Federal
discretionary budget that we oversee. It is just outrageous. We need a
faster, smarter, more modern military, not bloated spending that drives
up our national debt.
Many of you may remember the reports of cash in suitcases being
passed around by Karzai in Afghanistan. American tax dollars, cash,
where did that money go? Come on, we could put that into health care
for our troops. Recently, The New York Times made this case in their
editorial, ``A Better, Not Fatter, Defense Budget.''
I include the New York Times editorial, ``A Better, Not Fatter,
Defense Budget,'' in the Record.
[From the New York Times, May 9, 2016]
A Better, Not Fatter, Defense Budget
(By the Editorial Board)
To hear some military commanders and members of Congress
talk, the American military is worn out and in desperate need
of more money. After more than a decade in Iraq and
Afghanistan, they say, troops are lagging in training and new
weaponry, which is jeopardizing their ability to defeat the
Islamic State and deal with potential conflicts with Russia
and China.
While increased funding for some programs may be needed,
total military spending, at nearly $600 billion annually, is
not too low. The trouble is, the investment has often yielded
poor results, with the Pentagon, Congress and the White House
all making bad judgments, playing budget games and falling
under the sway of defense industry lobbyists. Current
military spending is 50 percent higher in real terms than it
was before 9/11, yet the number of active duty and reserve
troops is 6 percent smaller.
For nearly a decade after 9/11, the Pentagon had a virtual
blank check; the base defense budget rose, in adjusted
dollars, from $378 billion in 1998 to $600 billion in 2010.
As the military fought Al Qaeda and the Taliban, billions of
dollars were squandered on unnecessary items, including new
weapons that ran late and over budget like the troubled F-35
jet fighter.
The waste and the budget games continue with the House
Armed Services Committee approving a $583 billion total
defense authorization bill for 2017 last month that skirts
the across-the-board caps imposed by Congress in 2011 on
discretionary federal spending.
The caps are supposed to restrain domestic and military
spending equally, but defense hawks have insisted on throwing
more money at the Pentagon. That doesn't encourage efficiency
or wise choices. The panel took $18 billion from a $59
billion off-budget account, which has become a slush fund
renewed annually to finance the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and
other trouble spots, and is not subject to the budget caps,
and repurposed that money for use in the $524 billion base
military budget.
The move will underwrite the purchase of more ships, jet
fighters, helicopters and other big-ticket weapons that the
Pentagon didn't request and will keep the Army from falling
below 480,000 active-duty troops. It also means the war
account will run out of money next April. Representative Mac
Thornberry, the Republican chairman of the committee,
apparently assumes the next president will be forced to ask
for, and Congress will be forced to approve, more money for
the war account. This sleight of hand runs the risk that
troops overseas, at some point, could be deprived of some
resources, at least temporarily. The full House should reject
this maneuver.
Many defense experts, liberals and centrists as well as
hawks, agree that more investment is needed in maintenance,
training and modernizing aging weapons and equipment. These
needs were identified years ago,
[[Page H3932]]
yet the Pentagon and Congress have chosen to invest in
excessively costly high-tech weaponry while deferring
maintenance and other operational expenses.
The Pentagon can do with far fewer than the 1,700 F-35s it
plans on buying. It should pare back on President Obama's $1
trillion plan to replace nearly every missile, submarine,
aircraft and warhead in the nuclear arsenal. Defense
officials recently reported that 22 percent of all military
bases will not be needed by 2019. Civilian positions will
have to be reduced, while reforms in health care and the
military procurement system need to be carried out. All of
these changes make good sense, given the savings they would
bring. But they are politically unpalatable; base closings,
for instance, have been stubbornly resisted in recent years
by lawmakers fearful of angering voters by eliminating jobs
in communities that are economically dependent on those
bases.
Todd Harrison, a defense budget expert with the Center for
Strategic and International Studies, says that sustaining the
current military force of roughly two million and paying for
all the new weapons systems will cost billions more than
Congress has allowed under the budget caps. To maintain
sensible troop levels, Congress and the administration need
to begin honestly addressing the hard fiscal choices that
they have largely been loath to make.
Ms. LEE. Mr. Chairman, this article lists program after program, many
of which our generals did not even ask for, that has cost billions of
taxpayer dollars without making us any safer.
So it is time to stop pouring billions into unnecessary and
nonstrategic pet projects. Let's pass this amendment.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I yield to the gentleman from
Indiana (Mr. Visclosky), the ranking member of the committee.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I simply join the chairman in opposition.
I respect the gentleman from Colorado very much, as well as the
gentlewoman from California, but the committee has spent the last half
year trying to make very discrete decisions on spending. I think
across-the-board cuts negate that, and, therefore, I am opposed to the
amendment.
Mr. POLIS. Mr. Chairman, we have to ask ourselves: At what point does
additional marginal dollars spent on defense make our country less
secure by making us economically beholden to Saudi Arabia, China, and
other nations?
As the gentlewoman from California mentioned, defense spending has
ballooned, more than 50 percent increases. Every additional dollar we
spend is not a dollar we have. It is a dollar we borrow, a dollar we
borrow from people overseas, and a dollar we borrow from future
Americans and our children.
How can we look our children in the face today by spending the money
that they are going to be earning over their lives now, when we already
spend as much as the rest of the world combined on defense, including
our allies? If you add in our European allies and Asian allies, that is
more than three quarters of global defense spending. At what point is
enough enough?
I personally support a 3 percent cut, a 5 percent cut. I am on the
record saying so. This is a modest compromise. It is still above the
budget cap levels.
I hope everybody in this body supports this modest step toward our
national security.
I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I urge opposition to the amendment.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Colorado (Mr. Polis).
The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes
appeared to have it.
Mr. POLIS. Mr. Chair, 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 Colorado
will be postponed.
Amendment No. 48 Offered by Ms. McSally
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 48
printed in House Report 114-623.
Ms. McSALLY. 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 the bill (before the short title), add the
following new section:
Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act may
be used for performances by a military musical unit (as
defined in section 974 of title 10, United States Code)
described in paragraph (2)(B) or (3) of subsection (a) of
such section.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentlewoman
from Arizona (Ms. McSally) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from Arizona.
Ms. McSALLY. Mr. Chairman, I thank Chairman Frelinghuysen and Ranking
Member Visclosky for all their hard work on this important bill.
I rise today to offer an amendment to help us guide reprioritization
of some defense spending. While I believe military bands play a very
important role in ceremonies, funerals, honoring the fallen, and
playing taps, this amendment simply limits their ability to play in
social functions, dances, and things that are really outside their core
competencies and the competencies of the military.
Sequestration and 15 years of war have taken a very heavy toll on our
military, and this bill is helping to turn that around. I appreciate
the hard work on that. For example, in the air domain, with which I
have some experience, we recently grounded one-third of our combat
fighters for 3 months in the Air Force.
The Air Force is facing a shortage of 4,000 maintainers for aircraft
and 500 fighter pilots, and that shortage is expected to widen to 800
by 2022. Only half of the Air Force fighter pilots, including those
that fly the F-22, are receiving the full spectrum of the training they
require.
Twenty-five years ago, we had 134 combat coded fighter squadrons;
today, we have 55. And we had 946,000 total force military and civilian
airmen. Well, today we have fewer than 660,000. The Navy and the Marine
Corps are facing similar pilot and aircraft shortages. Our Army is
drawing down to its smallest size since before World War II.
Yet, today, we have 99 different Army bands. In fact, today these
bands will play at 22 different shows worldwide. Most of these shows,
the USO and civilian bands would love to fill the role of.
At the same time, we have heard reports that we have a shortage of
buglers--those who are playing taps--to honor our military when they
are fallen. We have got to make sure that we have them represented so
that those who have fallen and served receive the honors that they
deserve.
We should be recruiting warriors, but the Army Web site is targeting
people to play music for a living. Don't get me wrong; I believe the
bands play an important role. Let me tell you, in my 26 years in the
military, I used to be at Christmas parties with the wing commanders
and generals, and we would have Active-Duty military entertaining us,
and it bothered me then.
We have difficult choices to make. We are spending, in FY15, $437
million on musicians' instruments, uniforms, travel expenses, and we
have seen reports of things like $11,000 flutes, $12,000 tubas, and
$88,000 pianos.
These are difficult choices that we have to make right now in this
bill. Because of some of these concerns that we have had--I am on the
Armed Services Committee--in this year's NDAA, we asked for detailed
information on the size and cost of all bands across the military.
While we wait for this information, this amendment will inform the
military that Congress desires them to use defense dollars on defense.
Let's be clear, this is not an attack on the arts. I am a vocalist
myself. I care deeply about the arts. But we have to, again, make
difficult choices in these bills. In no way do I want to devalue those
who have served in the past in these roles or are serving now in these
roles in our military bands, but for every dollar that is spent on our
bands to entertain at social functions, that is a dollar we are not
spending on national security, on our troops, and our families.
Because of the shortage of maintainers, the Air Force is asking us to
choose between things like air superiority and close air support. We
need to do both.
Some of our choices here are related to do we want to have aircraft
parts funded or musical instruments. Again, these are difficult
choices, but my amendment today simply limits the function of military
bands so that they
[[Page H3933]]
can be performing those ceremonial duties, playing at military
funerals, playing taps, those things that are very important roles for
our military.
While our communities certainly do enjoy being entertained by our
military bands, they would, I think, prefer to be protected by our
military. I urge everybody to support this amendment and make sure our
money is spent well on defense and the bands are focused on their most
crucial roles.
I reserve the balance of my time.
{time} 1115
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I move to strike the last word.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise to support the gentlewoman's
amendment. As she has well said, military bands play a very important
role in recruiting, retention, and community relations. They also
provide patriotic and inspirational music to improve the morale of our
soldiers, sailors, and airmen. All of us support these roles.
Literally, such music makes our heart sing.
However, I agree that we should consider prohibiting the use of
funding for certain events. The bands play an important role during
ceremonies recognizing the sacrifices of the fallen, but they are not
appropriate at every event.
I look forward to working with the gentlewoman as we approach
conference to ensure that the language we include addresses the
gentlewoman's concerns. If the gentlewoman would agree to work with me
and Mr. Visclosky on this issue, I am sure we will be pleased to accept
her amendment.
Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
Ms. McSALLY. Mr. Chairman, I want to thank the chairman for his
support of the spirit of the amendment. I look forward to working with
him and the ranking member to make sure that it is appropriately
tightened up so that it meets the intent of the amendment, which I
think we both agree upon. I appreciate his working with me on that.
Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentlewoman from Arizona (Ms. McSally).
The amendment was agreed to.
Amendment No. 74 Offered by Mr. Barletta
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 74
printed in House Report 114-623.
Mr. BARLETTA. 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 the bill (before the short title) insert the
following:
Sec. __. None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made
available in this Act may be used for a contract under
section 2922a of title 10, United States Code, for energy or
fuel for a military installation that is procured from the
Russian Federation.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentleman
from Pennsylvania (Mr. Barletta) and a Member opposed each will control
5 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Pennsylvania.
Mr. BARLETTA. Mr. Chairman, I rise today to offer an amendment that
simply prevents any funding from being used to enter into contracts to
purchase fuel or energy for our military installations if that fuel or
energy originates from the Russian Federation.
Time and again, we have seen Vladimir Putin use Russian energy to
assert his political will over the rest of the world. In fact, just a
few months ago, the European Union announced that they were seeking
alternatives to Russian natural gas imports in order to avoid a repeat
of 2006 and 2009, when Russian suppliers cut off the gas shipped
through Ukraine, leaving much of Western Europe to succumb to winter's
freezing temperatures. I think we can all agree that we don't want our
American servicemen and -women to be left out in the cold.
To me, this is a commonsense issue. We should not leave our military
men and women at the mercy of hostile foreign countries. By ensuring
our military does not rely on the Russian Federation to supply the
heating and energy needs of our military bases, we can provide
certainty and security for the brave individuals protecting our
freedom. I urge my colleagues to support this amendment.
Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, I claim the time in opposition to the
gentleman's amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Indiana is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, I don't necessarily oppose the
gentleman's amendment, but I would want to make some remarks regarding
it.
The European Command believes this amendment would make it more
difficult and costly to acquire energy for European military
installations, and I would note in next year's authorization there is
language included to study the logistics and support capability gaps
for our military forces in Eastern Europe. I believe results of that
analysis will inform this amendment and many others related to the
European Command and the efforts of the European Reassurance
Initiative.
I believe Congress should wait until the Comptroller General and the
Defense Department have had time to analyze European military
installation energy source issues and offer them the opportunity to
propose a range of recommendations to the Congress. I also do believe
that if the amendment's language is broadly written, it includes all
contracts, and the restriction would impact the Defense Logistics
Agency Energy. That energy agency would have to include a clause in
their contracts to prohibit manufacturers from procuring fuel from the
Russian Federation as Russia is not a prohibited source. This
requirement may have Trade Agreements Act implications.
Additionally, this language would be problematic as the Defense
Logistics Agency Energy does not have the visibility over the source of
crude oil for their suppliers. The agency does not have sourcing
information under their contracts for refined products based on trade
agreements, contract requirements. Currently, we do not have contracts
where suppliers have certified that a refined product is sourced from
Russia.
A final concern is that if the amendment covers Russian-affiliated
companies that provide non-Russian refined fuel, again, the Agency does
not obtain detailed information regarding subcontractors. So there are
a number of questions.
The gentleman does raise a very important issue relative to energy
use, particularly on the European Continent. I just wanted to make my
colleagues known of those concerns.
Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. BARLETTA. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
New Jersey (Mr. Frelinghuysen), the chairman of the subcommittee.
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I want to thank our colleague for
raising this issue. May I say that I associate my comments with the
ranking member as well. Mr. Putin uses Russia's vast energy reserves as
a political tool--we know that--to support his aspirations in Eastern
Europe. This raises, as Mr. Visclosky says, serious concerns and
reminds us how important it is to ensure that our military is not
solely dependent on Russian energy.
I do have some general concerns regarding the unintended
consequences, which Mr. Visclosky relates, borne out of an amendment
which prohibits the use of any or all foreign energy sources on
overseas military bases, specifically as it relates to the European
Reassurance Initiative, which is included in our bill, or an amendment
which is drafted specifically to prohibit funds from being used to
procure Russian energy anywhere in the world.
I look forward to working with Mr. Barletta and Mr. Visclosky and our
entire committee to ensure that our military bases in Europe can
continue to rely on their present-day sources of energy.
Mr. BARLETTA. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from
Pennsylvania (Mr. Thompson).
Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Chairman, I rise in support of this
commonsense measure that would prohibit funds within this bill from
entering into contracts for energy or fuel
[[Page H3934]]
with the Russian Federation for the purpose of heating our military
installations.
I have longstanding concerns regarding the prospect of American
military installations in Europe being exposed to unnecessary
vulnerabilities as a result of becoming dependent upon foreign energy
resources. Russian natural gas already makes up a majority of the fuel
mix used at some military posts, and we cannot allow Russian coal or
natural gas to take control of the difference.
Mr. Chairman, this is a national security issue. By purchasing energy
from areas impacted by volatile international or regional politics, we
are putting our troops and their dependents at risk. Furthermore, we
are filling the coffers of hostile regimes who seek to use energy as a
weapon.
Furthermore, the United States has become the North American energy
giant. With congressional action to lift a 40-year moratorium on crude
oil exports, we are seeing new markets develop. We must ensure our
allies in Europe are provided a choice. Similarly, we must utilize
American-sourced energy to strategically support our military
installations overseas.
This is about countering Russian aggressions. I encourage support of
the Barletta amendment.
Mr. BARLETTA. Mr. Chair, again, I thank the chairman and the
committee for continuing to work with me on this issue. I urge my
colleagues to support this commonsense amendment.
I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Barletta).
The amendment was agreed to.
Amendment No. 75 Offered by Mr. Smith of Nebraska
The Acting CHAIR. It is now in order to consider amendment No. 75
printed in House Report 114-623.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. 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 the bill (before the short title), add the
following new section:
Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act may
be used to revise the DoD Food Service Program Manual (Number
1338.10 and dated December 2, 2014) to exclude meat.
The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 783, the gentleman
from Nebraska (Mr. Smith) and a Member opposed each will control 5
minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Nebraska.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I
may consume.
I rise to ensure that our men and women in uniform have options on
the menu when they seek nutrition in the cafeteria as they serve.
Ideologically motivated activists are working to take meat off the menu
in institutions across the country. There is plenty of evidence of
this, and I hope that we can limit these efforts to ensure that our men
and women in uniform have the choices of nutrition at their ready.
Meat contains vitamins and nutrients not readily available in a
plant-based diet. In fact, creatine, which supplies energy to muscle
cells and aids in their recovery, is only found in animal products.
My amendment does not inhibit the ability of individual
servicemembers to pursue a vegetarian diet if they choose to nor does
it prohibit the armed services from meeting the dietary needs of those
who choose a vegetarian or vegan diet. All this amendment does is to
ensure there is also a meat option available.
I yield to the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Frelinghuysen).
Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the gentleman bringing
this issue to our attention, and I am pleased to accept his amendment.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. I thank the chairman.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I rise to claim time in opposition to the
gentleman's amendment.
The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Indiana is recognized for 5
minutes.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, in the interest of full disclosure, I
would indicate to all of my colleagues here that I did have meat at
lunch yesterday. I ate meat last night.
I appreciate the gentleman's concern about ideological activists
attacking the menus at the Department of Defense, but I do trust they
will have the intestinal fortitude to resist those particular attacks.
I would note that the gentleman's amendment says that none of the funds
made available by this act may be used to revise the DOD Food Service
Program Manual Number 1338.10 dated December 2, 2014.
I would simply note that today in military dining facilities, there
are a wide variety of foods to choose from, taking into account
religious and personal preferences, even for carnivores. There is no
policy under consideration to eliminate meat from the nutritional
programs for our military services. It is my understanding that there
are vegetarian MREs, there are meat MREs.
Interestingly enough, when I had a recent conversation with General
Carr, who is the adjutant general of the Indiana National Guard, I
asked: What is your biggest problem today?
He said: Fitness, diet, and physical fitness.
So I think to impose ourselves into a food service program manual--
particularly since the gentleman is a member of a political party that
talks about overregulation in this country--is an overreach.
The question I would have for my colleagues is: Should we start
considering whether we should be using diced tomatoes in our various
food service areas or should we do whole tomatoes? Should we, when we
serve tuna fish, have chunk white or solid white?
I think at this point in time, given the gravity of the issues that
we have discussed over the last 3 days relative to our Nation's defense
that we are now micromanaging, and for that reason, I am opposed to the
amendment.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Will the gentleman yield?
Mr. VISCLOSKY. I yield to the gentleman from Nebraska.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Mr. Chairman, I would add that my amendment
actually reduces the regulation and ensures that our men and women in
uniform have adequate choices at the table, at the cafeteria, wherever
they might choose to eat. This does not prohibit anything. This just
ensures that options are available.
Mr. VISCLOSKY. I, again, think that the gentleman overreaches. It is
micromanaging, and I am opposed to his amendment.
Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Mr. Chairman, I yield 1 minute to the
gentleman from Iowa (Mr. King).
Mr. KING of Iowa. Mr. Chairman, I thank the gentleman from Nebraska
for bringing this amendment. I would like to just focus us on what this
is about. This is a Humane Society of the United States vegan/
vegetarian kind of initiative. It is about taking meat off the plates
of the American people. They are in here in this Congress constantly
year after year with another attempt and another attempt.
The USDA had meatless Mondays, and the Secretary of Agriculture said:
I don't know where that came from. It just happened. I don't even know
what staff person put that up on our Web site, but they took it down
right away.
{time} 1130
Our military? We would starve them for meat? We need them to be
aggressive and healthy.
There is a picture here from The Atlantic that shows the Norwegian
army. They have meatless Mondays. And they are fighting climate change
with meatless Mondays.
Then, why is this a political agenda? Let people eat what they want
to eat. Let's not take it off of their plate. They need it.
By the way, there is a reindeer on the shoulder of this Norwegian
soldier. It is the number one favorite meat in all Norway, but they
can't eat it on Monday because the political agenda seems to want to
drive this thing.
Let people have freedom. Let's have a strong military. Let them have
a lot of protein and a lot of energy to defend our God-given liberty.
Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Mr. Chairman, I would just add that the U.S.
Coast Guard, although not contained in this bill, has already engaged
in an
[[Page H3935]]
agenda to remove meat from some of the menus on certain days of the
week within that branch.
I want to ensure that our men and women in uniform who serve in
harm's way will have the options that they choose. And I would imagine
that, given the health impact of a healthy source of protein being
meat, we should afford our men and women in uniform that option.
Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the
gentleman from Nebraska (Mr. Smith).
The amendment was agreed to.
