  SA 3061. Mrs. GILLIBRAND (for herself, Ms. Baldwin, Mr. Johnson, and 
Mr. Schumer) submitted an amendment intended to be proposed to 
amendment SA 2910 proposed by Mr. Shelby to the bill H.R. 5895, making 
appropriations for energy and water development and related agencies 
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, and for other purposes; 
which was ordered to lie on the table; as follows:

       At the end of title I of division C, add the following:
       Sec. ___. (a) Report.--Not later than December 31, 2019, 
     the Secretary of Air Force shall submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a report setting forth the results of a 
     review, conducted by the Secretary for purposes of the 
     report, of the analytical model used for strategic basing of 
     KC-46 aircraft.
       (b) Particular Element.--The report shall include such 
     recommendations of the Secretary for the analytical model as 
     the Secretary considers appropriate in order to ensure that 
     the model addresses changes in refueling requirements 
     associated with the conventional and nuclear missions of the 
     Global Strike Command, and any other current or emerging 
     missions of the Global Strike Command (including missions in 
     support of counterterrorism activities), as a result of the 
     2018 National Defense Strategy and associated mobility 
     capability requirements.
       (c) Rule of Construction.--The requirement for a report 
     under this section may not be construed as limiting the 
     ability of the Air Force to make any future adjustment to the 
     analytical model used for strategic basing of KC-46 aircraft 
     or to any of the criteria in the analytical model.
                                 ______
