States military force structure in the State of Hawaii and
put at risk billions of dollars in annual economic activity
that the Armed Forces bring to the State of Hawaii;
(4) if the facility were closed, the United States Armed
Forces would be unable to support the National Military
Strategy, including the goals of the United States Pacific
Commander, and national security interests would be
significantly undermined;

degradation and fuel leaks do not pose a threat to the people
of Hawaii, especially the drinking water on Oahu; and

long-term challenges without robust and consistent funding
that provides the Navy and the Defense Logistics Agency with

on Consent/Statement of Work have identified as necessary to
mitigate and prevent fuel leaks at the Red Hill Bulk Fuel
Storage Facility on Oahu, Hawaii.
(2) Future years defense budget.--The Secretary of Defense,
in consultation with the Secretary of the Navy, shall ensure
that each future-years defense program submitted to Congress
under section 221 of title 10, United States Code, describes
how the Department will use funds to support any deliverables
that the parties of the Administrative Order on Consent/
Statement of Work have identified as necessary to mitigate
and prevent fuel leaks at the Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage
Facility on Oahu, Hawaii, in the period covered by the
future-years defense program.

OF FOREIGN INVESTMENTS WITH POTENTIAL IMPACTS
ON NATIONAL DEFENSE AND NATIONAL SECURITY.
(a) Plan and Recommendations Required.--The Secretary of
Defense shall, in consultation with the Secretary of State
and the Secretary of Treasury, assess and develop a plan, and
recommendations for agencies of the United States Government
other than the Department of Defense, to improve the
effectiveness of interagency vetting of foreign investments
that could potentially impair both the national security of
the United States and the ability of the Department to defend
the nation, specifically investments from nations that pose
threats to the national security interests of the United
States.
(b) Objectives.--The assessment, plan, and recommendations
required by subsection (a) shall have the following
objectives:
(1) To increase collaboration and coordination among the
Department of Defense and other agencies of the United States
Government, including the Director of National Intelligence,
in the identification and prevention of foreign investments
that could potentially impair the national security of the
United States and the ability of the Department to defend the
nation.
(2) To increase collaboration and cooperation among the
United States Government and governments of United States
allies and partners on investments described in paragraph
(1), including through information sharing.
(3) To restrict investments described in paragraph (1) by
countries of special concern in critical technologies and
emerging technologies that are foundational for maintaining
the United States technological advantage.
(c) Analysis of Issues.--The plan and recommendations
required by subsection (a) shall be based upon the results of
an analysis of issues as follows:
(1) Whether the current interagency vetting processes and
policies place adequate focus on the country of origin of
each transaction, particularly when it is a country of
special concern, and whether certain transactions emanating
from those countries should be presumed to pose certain risks
to the ability of the Department to defend the nation.
(2) What are the current or projected major vulnerabilities
of the Department pertaining to foreign investment, including
in the areas of cybersecurity, reliance on foreign suppliers
in the supply chain for defense equipment, limitations on
access to certain materials that are essential for national
defense, and the use of transportation assets and other
critical infrastructure for training, mobilizing, and
deploying forces.
(3) Whether the current interagency vetting process for
foreign investments--
(A) requires additional resources in order to be effective;
(B) permits the Department adequate time to thoroughly
review transactions to conduct national security threat
assessments and also determine the impacts of transactions on
national defense;
(C) adequately takes into account risks to the ability of
the Department to defend the nation posed by transactions
before attempting to mitigate them in various ways; and
(D) provides adequate monitoring and compliance of
agreements to mitigate such risks.
(4) Whether other agencies of the United States Government,
including the Department of the Interior, are aware of the
counterintelligence risks posed to facilities of the
Department by purchases or leases of nearby Federal land and
are cooperative in providing information to permit a proper
assessment of those risks.
(5) Whether and to what extent industrial espionage is
occurring against private United States companies to obtain
commercial secrets related to critical or foundational
technologies.
(6) Whether and to what extent future foreign investments
have the potential for any of the following:
(A) To increase the cost to the Department of acquiring or
maintaining necessary defense-related equipment and systems.
(B) To reduce the United States technological and
industrial advantage relative to any country of special
concern.
(C) To give any country of special concern a heightened
ability to conduct information warfare against the United
States, including through the spread false or misleading
information to the American public and the manipulation of
American public opinion on critical public policy issues.
(7) Whether currently mandated annual reports to Congress
on the interagency vetting of foreign investments provide
valuable information.
(d) Elements.--The elements of the assessment, plan, and
recommendations required by subsection (a) shall include the
following:
(1) A list of countries of special concern for investments
that could potentially impair the ability of the Department
to defend the nation.
(2) A description of recent trends in foreign investment
transactions by countries of special concern, including joint
ventures, the sale of assets pursuant to bankruptcy, and the
purchase or lease of real estate in proximity to military
installations.
(3) A description of any strategies used by countries of
special concern to exploit vulnerabilities in existing
foreign investment vetting processes and regulations.
(4) An assessment of any market distortion or unfair
competition by any country of special concern that directly
or indirectly impairs the national security or the United
States and the ability of the Department to defend the
nation.

of such assignments on the career progression of technicians.
(2) The use by the Department of Defense (especially within
the National Guard) of selective retention boards to separate
National Guard and Reserve technicians from military service
(with the effect of thereby separating them from civilian
service) before they accrue a full, unreduced retirement
annuity in connection with Federal civilian service, and
whether that use is consistent with the authority in section
10216(f) of title 10, United States Code, that technicians be
permitted to remain in service past their mandatory
separation date until they qualify for an unreduced
retirement annuity.
(3) The feasibility and advisability of extending

SEC. 1216. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE AFGHAN SPECIAL
IMMIGRANT VISA PROGRAM.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The Armed Forces, the Department of State, the United
States Agency for International Development, and other
agencies and departments of the United States rely on the
services of Afghan nationals in a variety of sensitive and
trusted capacities to support the operations of the United
States Government in Afghanistan.
(2) Afghans who have supported the United States Government
in Afghanistan face grave threats from the Taliban and other
terrorist groups as a result of their service.
(3) Commander of the United States Central Command, General
Joseph L. Votel, warned in a June 14, 2017, letter that
``curtailing or abandoning'' the special immigrant visa
program for Afghans carried out under the Afghan Allies
Protection Act of 2009 (8 U.S.C. 1101 note) ``would risk
significantly undermining years of progress and goodwill and
could serve to tip the balance in favor of malign actors''.
(4) Commander of Resolute Support and United States Forces-
Afghanistan, General John W. Nicholson Jr., warned in a June
12, 2017, letter that if such program ``is not fully
resourced it could significantly undermine our credibility
and the 16 years of tremendous sacrifice by thousands of
Afghans on behalf of Americans and Coalition partners''.
(5) All visas allocated for such program are projected to
be exhausted and all visa issuances for principal applicants
will cease in October 2017, if additional visas are not
authorized.
(6) The cessation of the issuance of special immigrant
visas for Afghans is likely to cause panic among the Afghans
who are assisting the United States, often at great personal
risk, and could significantly affect the operations of the
United States Government in Afghanistan.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that an
additional 4,000 visas should be made available for principal
aliens who are eligible for special immigrant status under
the Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2009 (8 U.S.C. 1101 note)
to prevent harm to the operations of the United States
Government in Afghanistan.

SEC. 1248. SUPPORT OF EUROPEAN DETERRENCE INITIATIVE TO DETER
RUSSIAN AGGRESSION.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Military exercises, such as Exercise Nifty Nugget and
Exercise Reforger during the Cold War, have historically made
important contributions to testing operational concepts,
technologies, and leadership approaches; identifying limiting
factors in the execution of operational plans and appropriate
corrective action; and bolstering deterrence against
adversaries by demonstrating United States military
capabilities.
(2) Military exercises with North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO) allies enhance the interoperability and
strategic credibility of the alliance.
(3) The increase in conventional, nuclear, and hybrid
threats by the Russian Federation against the security
interests of the United States and allies in Europe requires
substantial and sustained investment to improve United States
combat capability in Europe.
(4) The decline of a permanent United States military
presence in Europe in recent years increases the likelihood
the United States will rely on being able to flow forces from
the continental United States to the European theater in the
event of a major contingency.
(5) Senior military leaders, including the Commander of
United States Transportation Command, have warned that a
variety of increasingly advanced capabilities, especially the
proliferation of anti-access, area denial (A2/AD)
capabilities, have given adversaries of the United States the
ability to challenge the freedom of movement of the United
States military in all domains from force deployment to
employment to disrupt, delay, or deny operations.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that,
to enhance the European Deterrence Initiative and bolster
deterrence against Russian aggression, the United States,
together with North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies and
other European partners, should demonstrate its resolve and
ability to meet its commitments under Article V of the North
Atlantic Treaty through appropriate military exercises with
an emphasis on participation of United States forces based in
the continental United States and testing strategic and
operational logistics and transportation capabilities.
(c) Report.--
(1) In general.--Not later than March 1, 2018, the
Secretary of Defense shall submit to the congressional
defense committees a report setting forth the following:
(A) An analysis of the challenges to the ability of the
United States to flow significant forces from the continental
United States to the European theater in the event of a major
contingency.
(B) The plans of the Department of Defense, including the
conduct of military exercises, to address such challenges.
(2) Form.--The report required by paragraph (1) shall be
submitted in unclassified form, but may include a classified
annex.
SEC. 1249. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE EUROPEAN DETERRENCE
INITIATIVE.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the European Deterrence Initiative will bolster efforts
to deter further Russian aggression by providing resources
to--
(A) train and equip the military forces of North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO) and non-North Atlantic Treaty
Organization partners in order to improve responsiveness,
expand expeditionary capability, and strengthen combat
effectiveness across the spectrum of security environments;
(B) enhance the indications and warning, interoperability,
and logistics capabilities of Allied and partner military
forces to increase their ability to respond to external
aggression, defend sovereignty and territorial integrity, and
preserve regional stability;
(C) improve the agility and flexibility of military forces
required to address threats across the full spectrum of
domains and effectively operate in a wide array of coalition
operations across diverse global environments from North
Africa and the Middle East to Eastern Europe and the Arctic;
and
(D) mitigate potential gaps forming in the areas of
information warfare, Anti-Access Area Denial, and force
projection;
(2) investments that support the security and stability of
Europe, and that assist European nations in further
developing their security capabilities, are in the long-term
vital national security interests of the United States; and
(3) funds for such efforts should be authorized and
appropriated in the base budget of the Department of Defense
in order to ensure continued and planned funding to address
long-term stability in Europe, reassure the European allies
and partners of the United States, and deter further Russian
aggression.
SEC. 1250. ENHANCEMENT OF UKRAINE SECURITY ASSISTANCE
INITIATIVE.

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-328;

``(12) Treatment of wounded Ukraine soldiers in the United
States in medical treatment facilities through the
Secretarial Designee Program, and transportation, lodging,

[[Page S5560]]
support in connection with such treatment (including
incidental expenses in connection with such support).''.
SEC. 1251. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF THE NORTH
ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION INTELLIGENCE
FUSION CENTER.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
Intelligence Fusion Center provides a crucial contribution to
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization alliance and the
national security of the United States.
(2) The fast-paced evolution of the security situation
throughout Europe and its periphery, as well as a marked
increase in conventional, nuclear, and hybrid threats from
the Russian Federation, require optimized efforts to track
and attribute critical threats to the security and stability
of Europe and United States national security interests.
(3) The ability of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
Intelligence Fusion Center to leverage strategic intelligence
partnerships with the United States and other allies
facilitates daily and direct collaboration that provides
operational advantages and efficiencies needed to ensure the
rapid and proper response by the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization to Russian aggression in the conventional,
nuclear, and hybrid domains.
(4) The collocation of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization Intelligence Fusion Center with the Joint
Intelligence Analysis Complex of the United States European
Command facilitates the sharing and fusion of intelligence,
contributes to filling intelligence gaps within both the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the United States
European Command, and supports a common intelligence picture
for the North Atlantic Council, which is essential to
establishing political consensus on evaluating, analyzing,
and attributing existing and emerging threats.
(5) The North Atlantic Treaty Organization Intelligence
Fusion Center and its collocation with the Joint Intelligence
Analysis Complex contribute significantly to providing the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization alliance and the United
States European Command timely and effective indications and
warnings of threats emanating from within and around Europe.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that
the collocation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
Intelligence Fusion Center with the Joint Intelligence
Analysis Complex of the United States European Command
provides the optimal solution to intelligence and operational
requirements, while fostering critical diplomatic
relationships, and is the most efficient configuration of the
intelligence enterprise.

SEC. 1265. UNITED STATES POLICY WITH RESPECT TO FREEDOM OF
NAVIGATION OPERATIONS AND OVERFLIGHT BEYOND THE
TERRITORIAL SEAS.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Since the Declaration of Independence in 1776, which
was inspired in part as a response to a ``tyrant'' who
``plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts'' and who wrote laws
``for cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world'',
freedom of seas and promotion of international commerce have
been core security interests of the United States.
(2) Article I, section 8 of the Constitution of the United
States establishes enumerated powers for Congress, which
include regulating commerce with foreign nations, punishing
piracies and felonies committed on the high seas and offenses
against the law of nations, and providing and maintaining a
Navy.
(3) For centuries, the United States has maintained a
commitment to ensuring the right to freedom of navigation for
all law-abiding parties in every region of the world.
(4) In support of international law, the longstanding
United States commitment to freedom of navigation and
ensuring the free access to sea lanes to promote global
commerce remains a core security interest of the United
States.
(5) This is particularly true in areas of the world that
are critical transportation corridors and key routes for
global commerce, such as the South China Sea and the East
China Sea, through which a significant portion of global
commerce transits.
(6) The consistent exercise of freedom of navigation
operations and overflights by United States naval and air
forces throughout the world plays a critical role in
safeguarding the freedom of the seas for all lawful nations,
supporting international law, and ensuring the continued safe
passage and promotion of global commerce and trade.
(b) Declaration of Policy.--It is the policy of the United
States to fly, sail, and operate throughout the oceans, seas,
and airspace of the world wherever international law allows.
(c) Implementation of Policy.--In furtherance of the policy
set forth in subsection (b), the Secretary of Defense shall--
(1) plan and execute a robust series of routine and regular
naval presence missions and freedom of navigation operations
(FONOPs) throughout the world, including for critical
transportation corridors and key routes for global commerce;
(2) execute, in such critical transportation corridors,
routine and regular naval presence missions and maritime
freedom of navigation operations throughout the year;
(3) in addition to the operations executed pursuant to
paragraph (2), execute routine and regular maritime freedom
of navigation operations throughout the year, in accordance
with international law, including the use of expanded
military options and maneuvers beyond innocent passage; and
(4) to the maximum extent practicable, execute freedom of
navigation operations pursuant to this subsection with
regional partner countries and allies of the United States.
SEC. 1266. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF THE RULE OF
LAW IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the South China Sea is a vitally important waterway for
global commerce and for regional security, with almost 30
percent of the maritime trade of the world transiting the
South China Sea annually;
(2) the People's Republic of China is undermining regional
security and prosperity and challenging international rules
and norms by engaging in coercive activities and attempting
to limit lawful foreign operations in the South China Sea;
(3) a tribunal determined ``that China had violated the
Philippines' sovereign rights in its exclusive economic zone
by (a) interfering with Philippine fishing and petroleum
exploration, (b) constructing artificial islands and (c)
failing to prevent Chinese fishermen from fishing in the
zone,'' and that ``Chinese law enforcement vessels had
unlawfully created a serious risk of collision when they
physically obstructed Philippine vessels'';
(4) the arbitral tribunal award of July 2016 stated that
there is ``no legal basis for China to claim historic rights
to resources within the sea areas falling within the nine-
dash line''; and
(5) the United States should play a vital role in securing
the South China Sea and ensuring freedom of navigation and
overflight for all countries by undertaking freedom of
navigation operations on a regular and consistent basis, as
well as maintaining persistent presence operations in the
region.
SEC. 1267. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND
JAPAN.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the United States and Japan are indispensable partners
in tackling global challenges, and have pledged significant
support for efforts to counter violent extremism (including
the threat of the Islamic State), combat the proliferation of
weapons of mass destruction, prevent piracy, and assist the
victims of conflict and disaster worldwide;
(2) the security alliance between the United States and
Japan has evolved considerably over many decades and will
continue to transform as a partnership, sharing greater
responsibilities, dedicated to ensuring a secure and
prosperous Asia-Pacific region and world;
(3) the alliance between the United States and Japan is
essential for ensuring maritime security and freedom of
navigation, commerce, and overflight in the waters of the
East China Sea;
(4) Japan, a cornerstone of peace in the Asia-Pacific
region, stands as a strong partner of the United States in
efforts to uphold respect for the rule of law and to oppose
the use of coercion, intimidation, or force to change the
regional or global status quo, including in the East China
Sea and the South China Sea, which are among the busiest
waterways in the world;
(5) the United States and Japan are committed to working
together towards a world in which the Democratic People's
Republic of Korea (DPRK) does not threaten global peace and
security with its weapons of mass destruction and illicit
activities, and in which it respects human rights and its
people can live in freedom;
(6) the alliance between the United States and Japan should
be strengthened to maintain peace and stability in the Asia-
Pacific region and beyond, to confront emerging challenges,
and to safeguard maritime security and ensure freedom of
navigation, commerce, and overflight in the East China Sea
and the South China Sea;
(7) although the United States Government does not take a

partnership and cooperation in establishing a rules-based
international order which has resulted in one of the most
prosperous periods of human history.
(2) The United States is signatory to seven mutual defense
treaties with 56 different countries.
(3) One of the United States defense alliances is the 29-
nation-strong North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) which
is celebrating its 68th anniversary.
(4) The United States has not faced a more diverse and
complex array of crises and threats, including the emergence
of competitors like Russia and China, increasingly unstable
threats from North Korea and Iran, and the continued threat
from transnational violent extremist groups like the Islamic
State and al-Qaeda.
(5) The strain of a decreased military budget has decreased
capability at precisely the time when demand for United
States military strength has increased.
(6) Fifteen years of continuous war has stymied military
modernization, focused training on asymmetrical warfare over
large-scale conflicts.
(7) Secretary of Defense James Mattis stated that
``alliances provide avenues for peace, fostering the
conditions for economic growth with countries that share the
same vision, while tempering the plans of those who would
attack other nations or try to impose their will over the
less powerful''.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the United States is an ally rich nation and our
potential competitors--such as Russia, China, and North
Korea--are ally poor;
(2) United States allies and partners are critical to
defending peace and prosperity throughout the world;
(3) the rules-based international order supported by the
United States and its allies has ensured--and will continue
to promote--an international system that benefits all
nations;
(4) throughout the world, the United States will continue
to foster relationships with nations of like minds and
beliefs;
(5) as the United States manages multiple strategic
challenges, our enduring strength remains in alliances such
as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization; and
(6) the United States will continue to deepen alliances and
expand them, and will take no ally for granted.

RUSSIAN AGGRESSION.

important contributions to testing operational concepts,
technologies, and leadership approaches; identifying limiting
factors in the execution of operational plans and appropriate
corrective action; and bolstering deterrence against
adversaries by demonstrating United States military
capabilities.
(2) Military exercises with North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO) allies enhance the interoperability and
strategic credibility of the alliance.
(3) The increase in conventional, nuclear, and hybrid
threats by the Russian Federation against the security
interests of the United States and allies in Europe requires
substantial and sustained investment to improve United States
combat capability in Europe.
(4) The decline of a permanent United States military
presence in Europe in recent years increases the likelihood
the United States will rely on being able to flow forces from
the continental United States to the European theater in the
event of a major contingency.
(5) Senior military leaders, including the Commander of
United States Transportation Command, have warned that a
variety of increasingly advanced capabilities, especially the
proliferation of anti-access, area denial (A2/AD)
capabilities, have given adversaries of the United States the
ability to challenge the freedom of movement of the United
States military in all domains from force deployment to
employment to disrupt, delay, or deny operations.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that,
to enhance the European Deterrence Initiative and bolster
deterrence against Russian aggression, the United States,

other European partners, should demonstrate its resolve and

Atlantic Treaty through appropriate military exercises with

annex.

INITIATIVE.

and logistics capabilities of Allied and partner military
forces to increase their ability to respond to external
aggression, defend sovereignty and territorial integrity, and

required to address threats across the full spectrum of
domains and effectively operate in a wide array of coalition
[[Page S5669]]
operations across diverse global environments from North
Africa and the Middle East to Eastern Europe and the Arctic;
and
(D) mitigate potential gaps forming in the areas of
information warfare, Anti-Access Area Denial, and force
projection;
(2) investments that support the security and stability of
Europe, and that assist European nations in further
developing their security capabilities, are in the long-term
vital national security interests of the United States; and
(3) funds for such efforts should be authorized and
appropriated in the base budget of the Department of Defense
in order to ensure continued and planned funding to address
long-term stability in Europe, reassure the European allies
and partners of the United States, and deter further Russian
aggression.
