     the offense if the offense were tried in a United States 
     district court;
       (iii) any military-specific sentencing factors;
       (iv) the need for the sentencing parameter to be

     categories;

     category by setting an upper confinement limit and a lower 
     confinement limit.

     the military judge should consider and any collateral effects 
     of available punishments that may aid the military judge in 
     determining an appropriate sentence when there is no 
     applicable sentencing parameter for a specific offense.
       (4) Military sentencing parameters and criteria board.--
       (A) In general.--There is established within the Department

     unsuitable for sentencing parameters in accordance with 
     clause (ii)); and

     United States Code (the Uniform Code of Military Justice),

     factors and policies set forth in this section.

            Subtitle A--Matters Relating to Europe and NATO

     SEC. 1301. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY 
                   ORGANIZATION ALLIES AND PARTNERS.

       It is the sense of Congress as follows:
       (1) The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) remains 
     the strongest and most successful military alliance in the 
     world, founded on a commitment by its members to uphold the 
     principles of democracy, individual liberty, and the rule of 
     law, and its contributions to the collective defense are 
     indispensable to the security, prosperity, and freedom of its 
     members.
       (2) The success of NATO is critical to achieving United 
     States national security objectives in Europe and around the 
     world, including deterring Russian aggression, upholding 
     territorial integrity and sovereignty in Europe, addressing 
     strategic competition and mitigating shared security 
     concerns, countering malign efforts to undermine the rules-
     based international order and disrupt shared values, and 
     fostering international cooperation against collective 
     challenges.
       (3) The United States reaffirms its ironclad commitment to 
     NATO as the foundation of transatlantic security and to 
     uphold its obligations under the North Atlantic Treaty, 
     including Article 5 of the Treaty, and remains steadfastly 
     committed to upholding and strengthening its defense 
     alliances and partnerships in the European theater.
       (4) The commitment of NATO allies in response to the 
     invocation of Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty 
     following attacks on the United States homeland on September 
     11, 2001, and during years of counterterrorism, humanitarian, 
     and stabilization operations in Afghanistan has been 
     invaluable, and the sacrifices of NATO allies deserve the 
     highest order of respect and gratitude.
       (5) The national security challenges posed by the Russian 
     Government against NATO allies and partners are of grave 
     concern to the United States and a top NATO defense priority. 
     Since the invasion of Ukraine in 2014, the Russian Government 
     has not improved its behavior and has, in many aspects, 
     become increasingly belligerent. Aggression against NATO 
     allies and United States partners is unacceptable, and 
     Russia's willingness to engage in far-reaching, risky actions 
     contrary to the international order poses major risks to 
     United States national security interests that must be met 
     with sustained engagement, investment in credible deterrence, 
     and vigilance.
       (6) The United States should continue to deepen cooperation 
     on defense issues with non-NATO European partners, 
     bilaterally and as part of the NATO alliance, encourage 
     security sector cooperation between NATO and non-NATO defense 
     partners that complements and strengthens shared security 
     goals, interoperability, and allies' commitment to Article 3 
     of the North Atlantic Treaty, build on recent progress in 
     NATO allies achieving defense spending goals agreed to at the 
     2014 Wales Summit and reaffirmed at the 2016 Warsaw Summit 
     and the 2021 Brussels Summit, and build consensus to plan, 
     organize, and invest in the full range of defense 
     capabilities necessary to deter and defend against potential 
     adversaries.
       (7) The United States should continue to enhance United 
     States and allied force posture in Europe in order to 
     establish and sustain a credible deterrent against Russian 
     aggression and long-term strategic competition by the Russian 
     Government, including continued robust support for the 
     European Deterrence Initiative and other investments, ongoing 
     use of rotational deployments and robust exercises in the 
     European theater, improved forward-stationing of forces to 
     enhance deterrence and reduce cost, additional planning and 
     efforts to mitigate contested logistics challenges, 
     implementation of key initiatives to enhance readiness, 
     military mobility, and national resilience, and effective 
     investments in multi-service, cyber, information, and air 
     defense efforts to counter modern military challenges.
       (8) Following the end of the Resolute Support Mission in 
     Afghanistan, it is essential that the United States consider 
     ways to continue the benefits of combined interaction 
     alongside NATO allies and United States partners to continue 
     strengthening interoperability and cooperation.
       (9) The Black Sea is a strategically significant region to 
     United States interests and to the security of United States 
     allies and partners, especially in light of Russia's actions 
     in the region and illegal occupation of territory. The United 
     States should continue security cooperation efforts, 
     exercises, and training with regional allies and partners, 
     regional posture enhancements, and support for those allies' 
     and partners' pursuit of their own defenses, as well as joint 
     efforts that enhance interoperability and information 
     sharing.
       (10) Enhancing security and stability in the Western 
     Balkans is a goal that the United States shares with European 
     allies and partners. The United States should continue its 
     efforts to build interoperability and support institutional 
     reforms of the militaries of the Western Balkan nations, 
     including both NATO allies and partners. The United States 
     should also support those nations' efforts to resist 
     disinformation campaigns, predatory investments, efforts to 
     promote instability, and other means by which Russia and 
     China may seek to influence this region of Europe.
       (11) Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are model allies and 
     play a critical role in strategic efforts to ensure continued 
     deterrence against aggression by Russia and maintain the 
     collective security of the NATO alliance. The security of the 
     Baltic region is crucial to the security of the NATO 
     alliance.
       (12) The United States should continue to pursue efforts 
     consistent with the comprehensive, multilateral Baltic 
     Defense Assessment of the military requirements of Estonia, 
     Latvia, and Lithuania issued in December 2020. Robust support 
     to accomplish United States strategic objectives, including 
     by providing assistance to the Baltic countries through 
     security cooperation referred to as the Baltic Security 
     Initiative pursuant to sections 332 and 333 of title 10, 
     United States Code, should be prioritized in the years to 
     come. Specifically, the continuation of--
       (A) efforts to enhance interoperability among Estonia, 
     Latvia, and Lithuania and in support of NATO efforts;
       (B) infrastructure and other host-country support 
     improvements that will enhance United States and allied 
     military mobility across the region;
       (C) efforts to improve resilience to hybrid threats and 
     cyber defenses in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania; and
       (D) support for planning and budgeting efforts of Estonia, 
     Latvia, and Lithuania that are regionally synchronized.

     conflict, including redoubling engagement with the Minsk 
     Group, to make clear the importance of adhering to these 
     obligations and advance diplomatic progress.

     SEC. 1322. FOREIGN AREA OFFICER ASSESSMENT AND REVIEW.

       (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
       (1) Foreign Area Officers of the Army and their equivalent 
     positions in the other Armed Forces (in this section referred 
     to as ``FAOs'') are trained to manage, grow, and enhance 
     security cooperation relationships between the United States 
     and foreign partners and to build the overall military 
     capacity and capabilities of foreign partners.
       (2) At present, some senior defense official positions in 
     United States embassies are filled by officers lacking the 
     necessary skills, training, and experience to strengthen the 
     relationships between the United States and its critical 
     partners and allies.
       (3) FAOs are trained to fill those positions, and 
     deficiencies in the equitable use, assessment, promotion, 
     diversity and inclusion of such officers, as well as 
     limitations on career opportunities, undermine the ability of 
     the Department of Defense to strengthen partnerships and 
     alliances of the United States.
       (4) A federally funded research and development center can 
     provide a roadmap to correcting these deficiencies, 
     strengthening the FAO branch, and placing qualified FAOs in 
     positions of positive influence over United States 
     partnerships and alliances.
       (b) Assessment and Review Required.--
       (1) In general.--Not later than 60 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall 
     enter into an agreement with a federally funded research and 
     development center to conduct an independent assessment and 
     comprehensive review of the process by which Foreign Area 
     Officers and their equivalent positions in the other Armed 
     Forces (in this section referred to as ``FAOs'') are 
     recruited, selected, trained, assigned, organized, promoted, 
     retained, and used in security cooperation offices, senior 
     defense roles in U.S. embassies, and in other critical roles 
     of engagement with allies and partners.
       (2) Elements.--The assessment and review conducted under 
     paragraph (1) shall include the following:
       (A) Identification and assessment of the number and 
     location of senior defense official billets, including their 
     grade structure and availability to FAOs.
       (B) A review of the cultural, racial, and ethnic diversity 
     of FAOs.
       (C) An assessment of the assignment process for FAOs.
       (D) A review and assessment of the promotion criteria, 
     process, and possible pathways for career advancement for 
     FAOs.
       (E) A review of the organization and categorization of FAOs 
     by geographic region.
       (F) An assessment of the training program for FAOs and its 
     effectiveness.
       (G) An assessment of the available career paths for FAOs.
       (H) An assessment of the criteria used to determine 
     staffing requirements for senior defense official positions 
     and security cooperation roles for uniformed officers.
       (I) A review of the staffing of senior defense official and 
     security cooperation roles and assessment to determine 
     whether requirements are being met through the staffing 
     process.
       (J) An assessment of how the broader utilization of FAOs in 
     key security cooperation and embassy defense leadership 
     billets would improve the quality and professionalism of the 
     security cooperation workforce under section 384 of title 10, 
     United States Code.
       (K) A review of how many FAO opportunities are joint-
     qualifying and an assessment of whether increasing the number 
     of joint-qualified opportunities for FAOs would increase 
     recruitment, retention, and promotion.
       (L) Any other matters the Secretary determines relevant.
       (c) Results.--The federally funded research and development 
     center conducting the assessment and review described in 
     subsection (b) shall submit to the Secretary the results of 
     such assessment and review, which shall include the 
     following:
       (1) A summary of the research and activities undertaken to

     SEC. 1601. NATIONAL SECURITY SPACE LAUNCH PROGRAM.

       (a) Disclosure of National Security Space Launch Program 
     Contract Pricing Terms.--
       (1) In general.--Chapter 135 of title 10, United States 
     Code, is amended by inserting after section 2276 the 
     following new section 2277:

     ``Sec. 2277. Disclosure of National Security Space Launch 
       program contract pricing terms

       ``(a) In General.--With respect to any contract awarded by 
     the Secretary of the Air Force for the launch of a national 
     security payload under the National Security Space Launch 
     program, not later than 30 days after entering into such a 
     contract, the Secretary shall submit to the congressional 
     defense committees a description of the pricing terms of the 
     contract. For those contracts that include the launch of 
     assets of the National Reconnaissance Office, the Secretary 
     shall also submit the pricing terms to the congressional 
     intelligence committees (as defined by section 3 of the 
     National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 3003)).
       ``(b) Competitively Sensitive Trade Secret Data.--The 
     congressional defense committees and the congressional 
     intelligence committees shall--
       ``(1) treat a description of pricing terms submitted under 
     subsection (a) as competitively sensitive trade secret data; 
     and
       ``(2) use the description solely for committee purposes, 
     subject to appropriate restrictions to maintain the 
     confidentiality of the description.
       ``(c) Rule of Construction.--For purposes of section 1905 
     of title 18, a disclosure of contract pricing terms under 
     subsection (a) shall be construed as a disclosure authorized 
     by law.''.

     beginning of such chapter is amended by inserting after the 
     item relating to section 2276 the following new item:

``2277. Disclosure of National Security Space Launch program contract 
              pricing terms.''.
       (b) Policy.--With respect to entering into contracts for 
     launch services during the period beginning on the date of 
     the enactment of this Act and ending September 30, 2024, it 
     shall be the policy of the Department of Defense and the 
     National Reconnaissance Office to--
       (1) use the National Security Space Launch program to the 
     extent practical to procure launch services only from launch 
     service providers that can meet Federal requirements with 
     respect to delivering required payloads to reference orbits 
     covered under the requirements of phase two; and
       (2) maximize continuous competition for launch services as 
     the Space Force initiates planning for phase three, 
     specifically for those technology areas that are unique to 
     existing and emerging national security requirements.
       (c) Notification.--If the Secretary of Defense or the 
     Director of the National Reconnaissance Office determines 
     that a program requiring launch services that could be met 
     using phase two contracts will instead use an alternative 
     launch procurement approach, not later than seven days after 
     the date of such determination, the Secretary of Defense or, 
     as appropriate, the Director of National Intelligence, shall 
     submit to the appropriate congressional committees--
       (1) a notification of such determination;
       (2) a certification that the alternative launch procurement 
     approach is in the national security interest of the United 
     States; and
       (3) an outline of the cost analysis and any other rationale 
     for such determination.
       (d) Report.--
       (1) Requirement.--Not later than 90 days after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in 
     coordination with the Chief of Space Operations and the 
     Director of the Space Development Agency, and in consultation 
     with the Director of National Intelligence (including with 
     respect to the views of the Director of the National 
     Reconnaissance Office), shall submit to the appropriate 
     congressional committees a report on the emerging launch 
     requirements in the areas of space access, mobility, and 
     logistics that will not be met by phase two capabilities.
       (2) Elements.--The report under paragraph (1) shall include 
     the following:
       (A) An examination of potential benefits of competing one 
     or more launches that are outside of phase two capabilities, 
     focused on accelerating the rapid development and on-orbit 
     deployment of enabling and transformational technologies 
     required to address any emerging requirements, including with 
     respect to--
       (i) delivery of in-space transportation, logistics, and on-
     orbit servicing capabilities to enhance the persistence, 
     sensitivity, and resiliency of national security space 
     missions in a contested space environment;
       (ii) routine access to extended orbits beyond geostationary 
     orbits, including cislunar orbits;

     the nine design reference missions that exist as of the date 
     of the enactment of this Act.
       (B) A description of how competing space access, mobility, 
     and logistics launches could aid in establishing a new 
     acquisition framework to--
       (i) promote the potential for additional open and 
     sustainable competition for phase three; and
       (ii) re-examine the balance of mission assurance versus 
     risk tolerance to reflect new resilient spacecraft 
     architectures and reduce workload on the Federal Government 
     and industry to perform mission assurance where appropriate.
       (C) An analysis of how the matters under subparagraphs (A) 
     and (B) may help continue to reduce the cost per launch of 
     national security payloads.
       (D) An examination of the effects to the National Security 
     Space Launch program if contracted launch providers cannot 
     meet all phase two requirements, including with respect to--
       (i) the effects to national security launch resiliency; and
       (ii) the cost effects of a launch market that lacks full 
     competition.
       (3) Form.--The report under paragraph (1) shall be 
     submitted in unclassified form, but may include a classified 
     appendix.
       (4) Briefing.--Not later than 30 days after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act, the Secretary, in consultation with 
     the Director of National Intelligence, shall provide to the 
     appropriate congressional committees a briefing on the report

       (1) Plans for modernizing the covered nuclear systems, 
     including options and recommendations for technical, 
     procedural, and policy measures that could strengthen 
     safeguards, improve the security and reliability of digital 
     technologies, and prevent cyber-related and other risks that 
     could lead to the unauthorized or inadvertent use of nuclear 
     weapons as the result of an accident, misinterpretation, 
     miscalculation, terrorism, unexpected technological 
     breakthrough, or deliberate act.
       (2) Options and recommendations for nuclear risk reduction 
     measures, focusing on confidence building and predictability, 
     that the United States could carry out alone or with near-
     peer adversaries to strengthen safeguards against the 
     unauthorized or inadvertent use of a nuclear weapon and to 
     reduce nuclear risks.
       (d) Submission.--Not later than one year after the date of 
     the enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall submit to the 
     congressional defense committees the review conducted

     SEC. 5101. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF DEPARTMENT OF 
                   STATE'S WORK.

       It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) United States global engagement is key to a stable and 
     prosperous world;
       (2) United States leadership is indispensable in light of 
     the many complex and interconnected threats facing the United 
     States and the world;
       (3) diplomacy and development are critical tools of 
     national power, and full deployment of these tools is vital 
     to United States national security;
       (4) challenges such as the global refugee and migration 
     crises, terrorism, historic famine and food insecurity, and 
     fragile or repressive societies cannot be addressed without 
     sustained and robust United States diplomatic and development 
     leadership;
       (5) the United States Government must use all of the 
     instruments of national security and foreign policy at its 
     disposal to protect United States citizens, promote United 
     States interests and values, and support global stability and 
     prosperity;
       (6) United States security and prosperity depend on having 
     partners and allies that share our interests and values, and 
     these partnerships are nurtured and our shared interests and 
     values are promoted through United States diplomatic 
     engagement, security cooperation, economic statecraft, and 
     assistance that helps further economic development, good 
     governance, including the rule of law and democratic 
     institutions, and the development of shared responses to 
     natural and humanitarian disasters;
       (7) as the United States Government agencies primarily 
     charged with conducting diplomacy and development, the 
     Department and the United States Agency for International 
     Development (USAID) require sustained and robust funding to 
     carry out this important work, which is essential to our 
     ability to project United States leadership and values and to 
     advance United States interests around the world;
       (8) the work of the Department and USAID makes the United 
     States and the world safer and more prosperous by alleviating 
     global poverty and hunger, fighting HIV/AIDS and other 
     infectious diseases, strengthening alliances, expanding 
     educational opportunities for women and girls, promoting good 
     governance and democracy, supporting anti-corruption efforts, 
     driving economic development and trade, preventing armed 
     conflicts and humanitarian crises, and creating American jobs 
     and export opportunities;
       (9) the Department and USAID are vital national security 
     agencies, whose work is critical to the projection of United 
     States power and leadership worldwide, and without which 
     Americans would be less safe, United States economic power 
     would be diminished, and global stability and prosperity 
     would suffer;
       (10) investing in diplomacy and development before 
     conflicts break out saves American lives while also being 
     cost-effective; and
       (11) the contributions of personnel working at the 
     Department and USAID are extraordinarily valuable and allow 
     the United States to maintain its leadership around the 
     world.

     against Ships in Asia (ReCAAP).

     SEC. 5108. IMPORTANCE OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS TRAINING TO NATIONAL 
                   SECURITY.

       (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) the Department is a crucial national security agency, 
     whose employees, both Foreign and Civil Service, require the 
     best possible training at every stage of their careers to 
     prepare them to promote and defend United States national 
     interests and the health and safety of United States citizens 
     abroad;
       (2) the Department's investment of time and resources with 
     respect to the training and education of its personnel is 
     considerably below the level of other Federal departments and 
     agencies in the national security field, and falls well below 
     the investments many allied and adversarial countries make in 
     the development of their diplomats;
       (3) the Department faces increasingly complex and rapidly 
     evolving challenges, many of which are science and 
     technology-driven, and which demand the continual, high-
     quality training and education of its personnel;
       (4) the Department must move beyond reliance on ``on-the-
     job training'' and other informal mentorship practices, which 
     lead to an inequality in skillset development and career 
     advancement opportunities, often particularly for minority 
     personnel, and towards a robust professional tradecraft 
     training continuum that will provide for greater equality in 
     career advancement and increase minority participation in the 
     senior ranks;
       (5) the Department's Foreign Service Institute and other 
     training facilities should seek to substantially increase 
     their educational and training offerings to Department 
     personnel, including developing new and innovative 
     educational and training courses, methods, programs, and 
     opportunities; and
       (6) consistent with existing Department gift acceptance 
     authority and other applicable laws, the Department and 
     Foreign Service Institute may accept funds and other 
     resources from foundations, not-for-profit corporations, and 
     other appropriate sources to help the Department and the 
     Institute enhance the quantity and quality of training 
     offerings, especially in the introduction of new, innovative, 
     and pilot model courses.
       (b) Training Float.--Not later than 90 days after the date 
     of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of State shall 
     develop and submit to the appropriate congressional 
     committees a strategy to establish a ``training float'' to 
     allow for up to 15 percent of the Civil and Foreign Service 
     to participate in long-term training at any given time. The 
     strategy should identify steps necessary to ensure the 
     implementation of the training priorities identified in 
     subsection (c), sufficient training capacity and 
     opportunities are available to Civil and Foreign Service 
     officers, the equitable distribution of long-term training 
     opportunities to Civil and Foreign Service officers, and the 
     provision of any additional resources or authorities 
     necessary to facilitate such a training float, including 
     programs at the George P. Schultz National Foreign Affairs 
     Training Center, the Foreign Service Institute, the Foreign 
     Affairs Security Training Center, and other facilities or 
     programs operated by the Department of State. The strategy 
     shall identify which types of training would be prioritized, 
     the extent (if any) to which such training is already being 
     provided to Civil and Foreign Service officers by the 
     Department of State, any factors incentivizing or 
     disincentivizing such training, and why such training cannot 
     be achieved without Civil and Foreign Service officers 
     leaving the workforce. In addition to training opportunities 
     provided by the Department, the strategy shall consider 
     training that could be provided by the other United States 
     Government training

[[Page H7189]]

     institutions, as well as nongovernmental educational 
     institutions. The strategy shall consider approaches to 
     overcome disincentives to pursuing long-term training.
       (c) Prioritization.--In order to provide the Civil and 
     Foreign Service with the level of education and training 
     needed to effectively advance United States interests across 
     the globe, the Department of State should--
       (1) increase its offerings--
       (A) of virtual instruction to make training more accessible 
     to personnel deployed throughout the world; or
       (B) at partner organizations to provide useful outside 
     perspectives to Department personnel;
       (2) offer courses utilizing computer-based or assisted 
     simulations, allowing civilian officers to lead 
     decisionmaking in a crisis environment; and
       (3) consider increasing the duration and expanding the 
     focus of certain training courses, including--
       (A) the A-100 orientation course for Foreign Service 
     officers, and
       (B) the chief of mission course to more accurately reflect 
     the significant responsibilities accompanying such role.
       (d) Other Agency Responsibilities.--Other national security 
     agencies should increase the enrollment of their personnel in 
     courses at the Foreign Service Institute and other Department 
     of State training facilities to promote a whole-of-government 
     approach to mitigating national security challenges.

       (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
     the Department's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations (OBO) 
     or successor office should give appropriate consideration to

     and keeps customization to a minimum.
       (b) Consultation.--The Secretary shall carry out any new 
     United States embassy compound or new consulate compound 
     project that utilizes a non-standard design, including those 
     projects that are in the design or pre-design phase as of the 
     date of the enactment of this Act, only in consultation with 
     the appropriate congressional committees and the Committees 
     on Appropriations of the Senate and the House of 
     Representatives. The Secretary shall provide the appropriate 
     congressional committees and the Committees on Appropriations 
     of the Senate and the House of Representatives, for each such 
     project, the following documentation:
       (1) A comparison of the estimated full lifecycle costs of 
     the project to the estimated full lifecycle costs of such 
     project if it were to use a standard design.
       (2) A comparison of the estimated completion date of such 
     project to the estimated completion date of such project if 
     it were to use a standard design.
       (3) A comparison of the security of the completed project 
     to the security of such completed project if it were to use a 
     standard design.
       (4) A justification for the Secretary's selection of a non-
     standard design over a standard design for such project.
       (5) A written explanation if any of the documentation 
     necessary to support the comparisons and justification, as 
     the case may be, described in paragraphs (1) through (4)

     historical data on the number of bids for each foreign 
     assignment and any survey data collected by the Department 
     from eligible bidders on their bid decision-making.
       (2) Cooperation.--The Secretary shall work with the heads 
     of other relevant United States Government departments and 
     agencies to ensure such departments and agencies provide all

     SEC. 5309. WORKFORCE ACTIONS.

       (a) Sense of Congress on Workforce Recruitment.--It is the 
     sense of Congress that the Secretary should continue to hold 
     entry-level classes for Foreign Service officers and 
     specialists and continue to recruit civil servants through 
     programs such as the Presidential Management Fellows Program 
     and Pathways Internship Programs in a manner and at a 
     frequency consistent with prior years and consistent with the 
     need to maintain a pool of experienced personnel effectively 
     distributed across skill codes and ranks. It is further the 
     sense of Congress that absent continuous recruitment and 
     training of Foreign Service officers and civil servants, the 
     Department will lack experienced, qualified personnel in the 
     short, medium, and long terms.
       (b) Limitation.--The Secretary should not implement any 
     reduction-in-force action under section 3502 or 3595 of title

     law unless--
       (1) the appropriate congressional committees are notified 
     not less than 15 days in advance of such obligation or 
     expenditure; and
       (2) the Secretary has provided to the appropriate 
     congressional committees a detailed report that describes the 
     Department's strategic staffing goals, including--
       (A) a justification that describes how any proposed

     Department;
       (B) a certification that such workforce reduction is in the 
     national interest of the United States;
       (C) a comprehensive strategic staffing plan for the 
     Department, including 5-year workforce forecasting and a 
     description of the anticipated impact of any proposed 
     workforce reduction; and
       (D) a dataset displaying comprehensive workforce data for 
     all current and planned employees of the Department, 
     disaggregated by--
       (i) Foreign Service officer and Foreign Service specialist 
     rank;
       (ii) civil service job skill code, grade level, and bureau 
     of assignment;
       (iii) contracted employees, including the equivalent job 
     skill code and bureau of assignment; and
       (iv) employees hired under schedule C of subpart C of part 
     213 of title 5, Code of Federal Regulations, including their

[[Page H7193]]

     employment of veterans, in accordance with section 301 of the 
     Foreign Service Act of 1980 (22 U.S.C. 3941), as amended by 
     section 10406 of this Act, including those veterans belonging

     significant contributions to United States foreign policy in 
     a variety of regional and global affairs bureaus and 
     diplomatic posts overseas; and
       (3) the Department should continue to encourage veteran 
     employment and facilitate their participation in the 
     workforce.

     SEC. 5311. EMPLOYEE ASSIGNMENT RESTRICTIONS AND PRECLUSIONS.

       (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
     the Department should expand the appeal process it makes 
     available to employees related to assignment preclusions and 
     restrictions.
       (b) Appeal of Assignment Restriction or Preclusion.--
     Subsection (a) of section 414 of the Department of State 
     Authorities Act, Fiscal Year 2017 (22 U.S.C. 2734c(a)) is 
     amended by adding at the end the following new sentences: 
     ``Such right and process shall ensure that any employee

     clearance to expressly state that all review and appeal 
     rights relating thereto shall also apply to any 
     recommendation or decision to impose an assignment 
     restriction or preclusion to an employee.
       (d) Annual Report.--Not later than 90 days after the date 
     of the enactment of this Act, and annually thereafter, the 
     Secretary of State shall submit to the Committee on Foreign 
     Affairs and the Committee on Appropriations of the House of 
     Representatives and the Committee on Foreign Relations and 
     the Committee on Appropriations of the Senate a report that 
     contains the following:
       (1) A rationale for the use of assignment restrictions by 
     the Department of State, including specific case studies 
     related to cleared United States Foreign Service and civil 
     service employees of the Department that demonstrate country-
     specific restrictions serve a counterintelligence role beyond 
     that which is already covered by the security clearance 
     process.
       (2) The number of such Department employees subject to 
     assignment restrictions over the previous year, with data 
     disaggregated by--
       (A) identification as a Foreign Service officer, civil 
     service employee, eligible family member, or other employment 
     status;
       (B) the ethnicity, national origin, and race of the 
     precluded employee;
       (C) gender; and

     unused language skills as measured by Foreign Service 
     Institute language scores of such precluded employees.
       (6) Measures taken to ensure the diversity of adjudicators 
     and contracted investigators, with accompanying data on 
     results.

     SEC. 5312. RECALL AND REEMPLOYMENT OF CAREER MEMBERS.

       (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) career Department employees provide invaluable service 
     to the United States as nonpartisan professionals who 
     contribute subject matter expertise and professional skills 
     to the successful development and execution of United States 
     foreign policy; and
       (2) reemployment of skilled former members of the Foreign 
     and civil service who have voluntarily separated from the 
     Foreign or civil service due to family reasons or to obtain 
     professional skills outside government is of benefit to the 
     Department.
       (b) Notice of Employment Opportunities.--Title 5, United 
     States Code, is amended by inserting after chapter 102 the 
     following new chapter:

     opportunities, including positions for which the relevant 
     agency is accepting applications from individuals within the 
     agency's workforce under merit promotion procedures, on 
     publicly accessible sites, including www.usajobs.gov. If 
     using merit promotion procedures, the notice shall expressly 
     state that former employees eligible for reinstatement may 
     apply.''.
       (c) Clerical Amendment.--The table of chapters at the 
     beginning of title 5, United States Code, is amended by 
     inserting after the item relating to chapter 102 the 
     following:

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The bill, as amended, shall be debatable for 
60 minutes, equally divided and controlled by the chair and ranking 
minority member on the Committee on Armed Services or their respective 
designees.
  The gentleman from Washington (Mr. Smith) and the gentleman from 
Alabama (Mr. Rogers) each will control 30 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Washington (Mr. Smith.)


                             General Leave

  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that 
all Members may have 5 legislative days to revise and extend their 
remarks and include extraneous material on S. 1605.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Washington?
  There was no objection.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield myself 5 minutes.
  Madam Speaker, first of all, I want to thank all the people involved 
in this

[[Page H7216]]

process. Certainly, the staff of the Armed Services Committee, our 
bipartisan staff, worked incredibly hard over the course of this year 
to put the bill together, first to get it through our committee 
process, off the floor and then in the negotiation process that has led 
to this final bill.
  I think it is an incredibly important process because it includes so 
many people. Throughout the House, throughout the Senate, Members who 
have concerns in a wide range of policy areas have the opportunity in 
this bill to have those concerns heard and to try to address them 
through legislation.
  When you add it all up, of all the different proposals that have come 
at us in the House and the Senate negotiating process, you are well 
north of a thousand different ideas that have been sent our way, and 
the staff sift through all of that, working with Members and their 
staffs as well, to try to come up with the best solutions.
  This is an unbelievably important process because it is 
representative democracy. It is the way our system is supposed to work, 
and this bill truly reflects that. It is a bipartisan, bicameral 
product that took into account every single opinion that it could, and 
I think we have produced an outstanding product.
  The number one thing that I want to make sure that people are aware 
of is how important the Armed Services Committee's job of exercising 
oversight of the Department of Defense is and how important our job of 
making sure that the men and women who serve our country have 
everything they need to carry out the missions that we ask them to do. 
That is what our committee does. A whole lot of other issues get 
involved, but at its core, that is what we are focused on. In this bill 
there are hundreds of provisions to help make sure that gets done and 
gets done well.
  One of the major challenges our military faces right now is dealing 
with the rapid pace of technology. It is getting the Pentagon to better 
and more quickly adapt the innovative technologies that we need to meet 
our national security threats, and those threats are very real, as we 
are learning right now in real time, with what is going on between 
Russia and Ukraine, as we learn every day as we deal with an 
expansionist China, as we try to deal with Iran and North Korea and 
transnational terrorist groups. Those threats are real. Technology and 
innovation are crucial to meeting those threats, but we are moving too 
slowly at this point.
  There was a commission on artificial intelligence run by Eric Schmidt 
and Bob Work that put a whole series of recommendations together.  Jim 
Langevin's subcommittee worked on that. A number of proposals are in 
this bill to help them do a better job of handling that issue.
  We had a task force last year on supply chain concerns, which we have 
heard so much about. A number of key provisions from that task force 
are in this bill. That is what we do.
  Now, there are a lot of other issues, and it seems like when we get 
down to the end, we are always talking about the things we disagree 
about, which makes a certain amount of sense because, you know, you get 
through the stuff you can agree on, then you get down to the tougher 
stuff, and then you get down to the really tough stuff.
  But when we get down to that really tough stuff, I really hope that 
people don't lose track of how important this piece of legislation is 
with the day in and day out work we do to support the national security 
and national defense of this country and to support the people who we 
ask to perform those tasks.
  This is an outstanding bill that needs to get passed.
  Now, it also happens that it is one of the few bills that 
consistently passes every year. Well, actually, it is the only bill 
that consistently gets passed every year, so we have a lot of issues 
from outside committees.
  I forget how many hundreds of proposals we had, but at the end of the 
day, the hundred-plus proposals that were in this bill we got 40 
percent of them included in the final product, and we are happy to do 
that because it helps advance important issues in a wide variety of 
other areas. We can't carry them all because you have got to get 
bipartisan, bicameral agreement. So those of you who didn't get what 
you wanted out of this, please look at what is in the bill and how 
important it is.
  And the single most important thing in this bill, in my view, is we 
finally reformed our Uniform Code of Military Justice for how it deals 
with sexual assault. A stain on the military to this day is the fact 
that we have not adequately dealt with and protected the servicemembers 
who have faced sexual crimes in the military.
  This is the most transformational change that we have done on that 
issue. We take all sex crimes away from the commander, and we create a 
Special Victims Prosecutor who will have the expertise, the commitment, 
and the focus to adequately decide what crimes should be charged and to 
prosecute those crimes effectively.
  Now, a lot of people have worked on this. Nobody has done more than 
Jackie Speier. Jackie is responsible for getting this done and getting 
it to this point. Of all those people who worked on it, there were a 
lot of differences of opinion about how exactly to do it. And I know 
some folks think it should have been done slightly differently here, 
slightly differently there. This is the agreement that we can get done 
and get passed, and it is transformational in what it does.

  It is also, I believe, crucial to dealing with one of the other major 
issues that we face in the military, and that is diversity.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield myself an additional 
1 minute.
  The diversity problem that we have with recruitment, promotion, and 
how is the UCMJ carried out with regard to people of color. This bill 
will give us the opportunity to set up a whole set of crimes that are 
under a new authority to take a shot at fixing that problem.
  Now, I know some would like to add more crimes to that, and we had 
that debate. This is what we came up with, and it is huge. It is the 
biggest change we have had in a long time. It is worthy of our support. 
The entire bill is worthy of our support.
  The last thing I want to say is, I want to specifically thank Mr. 
Rogers of Alabama, the ranking member on this committee. The 
bipartisan, bicameral work that we do would not be possible without 
leadership on both sides. I could not ask for a better partner. His 
staff has been outstanding, as well as we have worked to get this 
product.
  I highly recommend this bill. Madam Speaker, I urge everyone to vote 
in favor of this bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I 
may consume.
  I rise in strong support of the Fiscal Year 2022 National Defense 
Authorization Act. And I want to start off by saying Chairman Smith has 
been a real leader on this effort. He has had obstacle after obstacle 
thrown in his way for months and has continued to be a real advocate 
for the legislation, but also trying to make sure we get in a good 
place. And I couldn't ask for a better partner to lead this committee 
with.
  The bill before us has strong bipartisan, bicameral support.
  Over the last year, we have seen the best of our soldiers, sailors, 
marines, airmen, and guardians. They have performed in the toughest 
environments with the greatest level of skill and professionalism. Many 
gave their lives so others would have a chance at a better life.
  Without a doubt, our military is the greatest force for good the 
world has ever seen. Providing the authorities and resources our 
servicemembers need to defend our Nation and defeat adversaries is the 
greatest responsibility we have here in Congress.
  We accomplish that responsibility with the bill before us today. It 
provides an additional $25 billion over the President's request, 
reversing irresponsible cuts to procurement and readiness.
  This bill ensures our warfighters are the best equipped and trained 
in the world. It puts our servicemembers first, providing a 2.7 percent 
pay raise and expanding benefits to their families.
  It puts American workers first with historic investments in our 
industrial base.
  It also begins divesting in legacy systems that will not help us 
deter future

[[Page H7217]]

threats. Instead, it invests in new technologies like artificial 
intelligence, hypersonics, and quantum computing that will help us stay 
ahead of our adversaries. That is important because Russia and China 
are rapidly modernizing their militaries.
  China is outpacing us with advancements in emerging technologies and 
weapons systems. In recent years, we have seen China use its military 
to push out its borders, threaten our allies, and gain footholds on new 
continents.
  This bill is laser focused on preparing our military to prevail in a 
conflict with China. It makes critical investments in new systems 
capable of surviving in contested environments. It includes provisions 
that will remove China from our defense supply chain. And it reaffirms 
our support to allies in the region, especially Taiwan.
  In Eastern Europe, Russia is on the march again. Putin is threatening 
NATO allies and amassing an invasion force on the Ukrainian border.
  This bill makes historic investments in the European Defense 
Initiative and provides $300 million for Ukraine, $75 million of which 
is lethal aid.
  Threats from near-peer rivals like China and Russia are not the only 
ones we face. Terrorists continue to plot to destroy our way of life, 
so we must continue to take the fight to them. With strong investments 
in new capabilities and readiness, this bill enables our warfighters to 
do just that.
  Finally, I think we were all horrified by the disastrous withdrawal 
from Afghanistan. This bill includes important provisions to provide 
accountability and ensure that we honor the 2,500 Americans who gave 
their lives in Afghanistan to keep our Nation safe.
  Again, Madam Speaker, this is a carefully drafted bipartisan, 
bicameral agreement. I urge all Members to support our servicemembers 
and their families by voting in favor of this bill. I reserve the 
balance of my time.

                              {time}  2015

  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from California (Mr. Garamendi), the distinguished chairman 
of the Subcommittee on Readiness.
  Mr. GARAMENDI. Madam Speaker, the FY22 National Defense Authorization 
Act is a bipartisan project of enormous work both by members and staff. 
As always, I start by thanking Chairman Smith and Ranking Member Rogers 
and the House Committee on Armed Services' staff that worked long hours 
and many, many nights putting this year's NDAA together.
  I also thank the Subcommittee on Readiness Ranking Member Lamborn, 
for his partnership on the subcommittee, as well as all the members of 
the subcommittee who contributed to the base bill or submitted 
amendments in the process.
  In addition, I thank the committee's staff for their many hours of 
work in preparing this mark or this legislation. In particular, the 
staff of the Subcommittee on Readiness: Jeanine Womble, Ian Bennitt, 
Melanie Harris, David Sienicki, Jay Vallario, Wendell White, Whitney 
Verrett, and Naajidah Khan.
  I am particularly proud of the many priority issues for the 
Subcommittee on Readiness that are reflected in this final bill.
  Of note, this bill represents a continuation of the work to address 
the vulnerabilities of installations, as well as energy resiliency and 
response to climate change. We also are prioritizing efforts to address 
the contested logistics involving near-peer competitors.
  This bill strengthens the operation energy program by requiring the 
Department of Defense to create a working group to enhance integration 
of military department energy initiatives into operational planning and 
platform development to combat the many challenges associated with 
contested and congested logistics.
  It also represents a step forward in our work to ensure the safety of 
our military and civilian personnel is a top priority for the 
Department. The FY22 NDAA establishes the Joint Safety Council and 
requires the Department of Defense to develop a plan.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield the gentleman an 
additional 15 seconds.
  Mr. GARAMENDI. The bill also takes important steps to improve the 
quality of family life dealing with housing and child development 
centers. Notably, $517 million in this bill for PFAS in an effort to 
increase transparency and provide information. Finally, the bill takes 
key steps to control the cost of expensive programs.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Turner), who is not only the ranking member on 
Strategic Forces Subcommittee, but has spent years leading the effort 
for us to get to meaningful ways to deal with sexual assault in the 
military, which this bill does.
  Mr. TURNER. Madam Speaker, I thank the ranking member for yielding.
  Madam Speaker, I rise in support of the Fiscal Year 2022 National 
Defense Authorization Act. I thank Chairman Smith, Ranking Member 
Rogers, and, of course, chairman of the Strategic Forces Subcommittee,  
 Jim Cooper, for once again delivering a National Defense Authorization 
Act in a bipartisan manner.
  This is, as the chairman was saying, the one time a year that we all 
come together, and that is counter to the narrative you see in 
Washington, that this truly is a bipartisan product. I thank the 
committee staff for continuing that culture.
  Madam Speaker, DOD leaders have made it clear that we must do more to 
deter adversaries. I am confident that this bill will do that in 
countering both Russia and China. As the ranking member of the 
Strategic Forces Subcommittee, I am particularly proud of the progress 
this bill makes on the issues of nuclear modernization missile defense 
in space.
  Specifically, the bill fully funds our triad modernization program, 
to include the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent, the Long-Range 
Standoff Weapon, the B83 gravity bomb life extension, and the two-site 
solution for plutonium pit production in Los Alamos and the Savannah 
River Site.
  The bill prohibits the retirement or reconversion of the W76-2 low-
yield warhead; requires the integration of the LRSO air-launched cruise 
missile with the B-21 bomber; and creates a floor of 400 U.S. ICBMs.
  On missile defense, it fully funds the Next Generation Interceptor 
and supports ensuring our homeland missile defense outpaces the North 
Korean ICBM threat. It also funds Guam and additional THAAD 
interceptors.
  On Space, we continue to push for declassification of programs that 
will help us counter China and Russia.
  Madam Speaker, I thank the ranking member for his comments and the 
chairman for the work in this bill that is done to try to deter and 
prevent sexual assault.
  Madam Speaker, this NDAA bolsters our national security. It improves 
the lives of our servicemembers, and will help us counter the threats 
of China and Russia.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield 2\1/2\ minutes to the 
gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Courtney), chairman of the Seapower and 
Projection Forces Subcommittee.
  Mr. COURTNEY. Madam Speaker, I rise in strong support of the 2022 
National Defense Authorization Act, which is before us this evening.
  As chair of the Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee, this 
bill is proof that our panel upheld its duty under Article 1, Section 8 
``to provide and maintain a Navy.''
  Our bill authorizes 13 new ships, continuing our tradition to 
independently scrub the budget and augment our Navy fleet responsibly. 
Within that total, we authorize three destroyers and two additional 
Fast Transport ships to support the rapid deployment of equipment and 
personnel.
  The agreement also reflects our panel's ongoing efforts to 
recapitalize our aging sealift. The bill fully authorizes the new 
sealift Tanker Security Program, an initiative our panel started last 
year to meet gaps in our at-sea refueling capabilities.

  It also authorizes the fifth National Security Multi-Mission Vessel, 
another initiative our subcommittee led to boost maritime training and 
sealift capacity. Later this week, the historic Philly Shipyard will 
lay keel for the first in a series of NSMVs, which is tangible proof 
that our Nation can rebuild its decrepit sealift fleet with our

[[Page H7218]]

domestic shipbuilding industrial base. To that end, this agreement 
rejects a request to further our reliance on used foreign-built sealift 
ships.
  Madam Speaker, of particular note, is the mark on undersea 
capabilities, which at the end of the day is the most effective path to 
deter the pacing threat of China. For proof of this, look no further 
than AUKUS, the recent security agreement between the U.S., U.K., and 
Australia, whose centerpiece is building a new fleet of Aussie nuclear-
powered submarines. This NDAA funds two per year Virginia-class subs 
and full production of the Columbia program. It also includes House 
provisions of $200 million for a new facility, $130 million for 
supplier development, and $20 million for workforce development. 
Altogether, this will increase production capacity to help both our 
allies and our Navy to maintain dominance in the undersea domain.
  Madam Speaker, I thank Ranking Member  Rob Wittman and all the 
members on the subcommittee for their great bipartisan work building 
the NDAA this year, as well as Chairman Smith and Ranking Member 
Rogers.
  I also thank Phil McNaughton, Dave Sienicki, and Kelly Goggin for 
their great staff work, and Lieutenant Commander Matt Harmon, my Navy 
fellow, who is sadly leaving us soon. His really solid contribution as 
a SWO really was instrumental in terms of the work that our 
subcommittee was able to produce.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Wittman).
  Mr. WITTMAN. Madam Speaker, I thank Mr. Rogers for yielding.
  Madam Speaker, our national security is in jeopardy. Russia literally 
has over 100,000 troops sitting on Ukraine's doorstep. Iran continues 
to threaten the viability of Israel and other regional nations, and 
China is preparing to bully the ASEAN nations into submission and 
declare their regional hegemony, not just in Hong Kong but the entire 
region.
  Just this year, China surpassed the United States in battle force 
ships and is rapidly approaching parity in our combat aircraft.
  Do we have the courage to stand up to these regional tyrants; do we 
oppose an Iranian regime who threatens to destabilize neighboring 
countries while they seek nuclear capabilities; or even do we seek to 
appease a North Korea who continues to threaten South Korea and even 
the United States with their nuclear expansion?
  Our Nation sits at the precipice of a national security inflection 
point. I know which path our Nation should select and I am emboldened 
to ensure our Nation is prepared to choose, at a time of our choosing, 
what will be in the best interest of our Nation. A strong national 
defense is necessary to preserve our democratic ideals and the nations 
who seek to live free from subjugation and oppression.
  Madam Speaker, that is why I am particularly pleased that we have 
rejected a multitude of national security objectives proposed by the 
Biden administration. This bill authorizes a 20 percent increase in 
ship construction, partially rejects an ill-advised ``divest to 
invest'' strategy, and blocks a multitude of poison pills that were 
haphazardly tacked on to this bill.
  I thank Ranking Member Rogers and his leadership during the top-line 
debate this year. We are adopting his authorization vision today, a 
vision that ensures real growth for defense. I also particularly thank 
Chairman Smith and Chairman Courtney for their approach to national 
security and their desire to reach a bipartisan consensus, doing what 
is in the best interest of our Nation.
  Madam Speaker, I say to my friends that this is a good bill, worthy 
of support. It sends a strong message to our democratic partners and 
allies that the United States stands with countries that oppose 
regional hegemony. We need to pass the National Defense Authorization 
Act to ensure our national security.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from Rhode Island (Mr. Langevin), chair of the Subcommittee 
on Cyber, Innovative Technologies, and Information Systems.
  Mr. LANGEVIN. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding.
  Madam Speaker, I rise today in strong support of the National Defense 
Authorization Act. I begin by congratulating and thanking Chairman 
Smith and Ranking Member Rogers, as well as my counterparts on the CITI 
Subcommittee, Ranking Member Banks and former Ranking Member Stefanik 
for their bipartisan collaboration in helping to craft a national 
defense bill for the 61st consecutive year.
  Thanks to the work of my subcommittee, this legislation includes a 
significant increase in early-stage research. Our research enterprise 
has always ensured our technology superiority. It is how we won the 
space race. Today, as the battlefield expands into cyberspace and outer 
space, we find ourselves facing a more aggressive Russia and China. I 
am proud that Congress has unlocked funds for hypersonics defense, 
directed energy, quantum computing, machine learning, and biotechnology 
so that we never send our war fighters into a fair fight.
  Madam Speaker, I am most proud that this bill includes many 
recommendations from the National Security Commission on Artificial 
Intelligence, including funds to accelerate the deployment of new 
technology to the war fighter. I am also proud that in our first year 
as a subcommittee, the Subcommittee on Cyber, Innovative Technologies, 
and Information Systems, we have made significant investments in our 
cybersecurity forces, set a course for improved cybersecurity 
governance within the Department, and continue to strengthen the 
Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure 
Security Agency.

  The NDAA also fully funds key national security platforms, the 
Virginia-class and Columbia-class submarine programs. I thank the Rhode 
Islanders who build our Nation's submarines and make our country safer. 
Finally, this bill funds installation resilience projects to address 
the ongoing threat from climate change.
  These achievements would not have been possible without the work of 
my subcommittee staff and personal staff.
  I thank Michael Hermann, Josh Stiefel, Troy Nienberg, Payson Ruhl, 
Caroline Goodson, and Juliann Hitt, and former staffers Bess Dopkeen 
and Caroline Kehrli.
  Madam Speaker, I urge all of my colleagues to support this bipartisan 
commitment to national security.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the 
gentleman from Texas (Mr. Jackson), an outstanding freshman member of 
our committee.
  Mr. JACKSON. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of a critical piece of 
legislation that comes before Congress each year, the National Defense 
Authorization Act. First, I thank Ranking Member Rogers and his staff 
for their outstanding leadership in this effort.
  This bill modernizes our force, gives a well-deserved raise to our 
servicemembers, and provides them with the equipment they need to 
compete with China, Russia, and Iran.
  For the 13th District of Texas, this bill will protect the nuclear 
triad, it will modernize the Pantex Plant in Amarillo, and it will 
support training done at Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita Falls. It 
also included provisions that I authored to put servicemembers first 
and ensure the safety of all of our soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, 
and guardians.
  This NDAA also pushes back on the unconstitutional vaccine mandate, 
and it holds the Biden administration accountable for its failed 
Afghanistan withdrawal.
  Just as important, there are some notable provisions that are not 
included. This bill does not contain harmful provisions that threaten 
the Second Amendment and it does not require our daughters to register 
for the draft.
  Bottom line: This bill is a win for the military, it is a win for the 
Texas 13th Congressional District, and it is a win for this country.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Norcross), chair of the Tactical Air and 
Land Force Subcommittee.
  Mr. NORCROSS. Madam Speaker, I thank Chairman Smith and Ranking 
Member Rogers for their leadership in bringing this bill to the floor. 
This is our opportunity to pass the Defense Authorization Act for the 
61st straight year. That is important.

[[Page H7219]]

  Madam Speaker, this bill continues the Tactical Air and Land Forces 
Subcommittee's long tradition of bipartisan work to make America's 
Armed Forces continue to be the best in the world.
  I commend the hard work by our members, certainly our staff, and 
everyone else in this rather unusual, complicated, and demanding year.

                              {time}  2030

  I especially want to thank Ranking Member Hartzler for her leadership 
and commitment to this bill. Our bipartisan cooperation in the House, 
once again, paid dividends in delivering a defense bill that meets the 
modernization and readiness needs of our Nation's air and land forces.
  Madam Speaker, this bill carefully manages our military resources 
while increasing our congressional oversight of DOD's large, complex, 
and expensive programs. Certainly, this is something that demands our 
attention and it certainly has.
  This billing includes significant compromises, many of which I 
personally do not agree with. This is a good bill, and it furthers 
America's national security needs.
  Madam Speaker, I urge everyone to support this bill.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the 
gentleman from Arkansas (Mr. Crawford).
  Mr. CRAWFORD. Madam Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Alabama for 
his leadership.
  Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of the 2022 NDAA. This process 
began months ago. A bill was introduced, Members offered amendments, 
debated accordingly, and reached bicameral consensus.
  However, as Members arrived in Washington this afternoon, they 
realized they only had about 8 hours to review and vote on a 2,100-page 
document to secure our national defense--a surprising and frustrating 
process that has become all too familiar with House Democrats and the 
majority.
  While I will always support our men and women in uniform, I am 
concerned that not all these men and women, specifically those who 
serve in the Army as explosive ordnance disposal technicians, as I once 
did, are adequately equipped to defend our Nation by this year's 
version of NDAA. I will continue to work hard to achieve this purpose 
going forward.
  I am voting in favor of the legislation because of the critical 
funding it provides for our national defense, pay raises for our 
servicemen and -women, provisions to hold the Biden administration 
accountable on its irresponsible withdraw from Afghanistan, and serious 
steps to assess the involvement of the Chinese Communist Party in the 
origins of COVID-19 as well as their unacceptable and increasingly 
aggressive behavior around the world.
  I sincerely hope that next year we have more time to absorb the final 
provisions of the NDAA to make sure that all of our troops feel 
confident they have the full support of Congress.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Gallego), the chair of the Intelligence and 
Special Operations Subcommittee.
  Mr. GALLEGO. Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of S. 1605, the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022.
  I am proud that we in the House and Senate have completed our work on 
this defense bill and reached bipartisan consensus in support of our 
national security and our men and women in uniform.
  This year's bill contains multiple provisions to address strategic 
challenges presented by China and Russia, to strengthen our ability to 
operate in the grey zone of conflict, and to deepen relationships with 
key allies and partners.
  As chair of the Intelligence and Special Operations Subcommittee, I 
am proud of the provisions of this bill that represent critical reforms 
to the defense intelligence enterprise, Special Operations Forces, and 
our ability to counter weapons of mass destruction.
  Our bill creates more agility across the defense intelligence 
enterprise by expanding information sharing with allies and partners 
and breaking down barriers to information sharing. This enhances our 
warfighters' and combatant commanders' ability to counter China and 
Russia in the information environment.
  The bill authorizes investments in emergent technologies for 
intelligence systems, including increasing funding for Project Maven, 
military information support operations, and the continued use of Small 
Business Innovation Research to develop AI-enabled data storage system 
solutions.
  Our bill authorizes a $105 million increase to the Cooperative Threat 
Reduction Program, which will enhance our efforts to detect and fight 
emergent chemical and biological threats and develop medical 
countermeasures such as vaccines and therapeutics.
  It also establishes an office and organizational structure and 
provides authorities to address unidentified aerial phenomena.
  Finally, the bill strengthens alliances and partnerships with key 
countries in the Indo-Pacific, like South Korea and Taiwan, and in 
Europe. I am particularly proud that for the first time this bill 
recognizes the Baltic Security Initiative, which will provide robust 
support to Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, and further strengthen 
deterrence in the region at a time of heightened tensions.
  I want to thank my subcommittee ranking member, Trent Kelly, for his 
contribution. I also want to thank the staff, Shannon Green, Jessica 
Carroll, Zachary Taylor, and Patrick Nevins, as well as my MLA, 
Michelle, for their tireless efforts.
  Madam Speaker, in addition to meeting the most pressing security 
challenges we face as a Nation today, this bill supports our 
servicemembers with a 2.7 percent pay raise, implements landmark UCMJ 
reforms, and combats extremism in the military.
  It is a good bill and I urge my colleagues to support it.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Gallagher), the ranking member of the 
Military Personnel Subcommittee.
  Mr. GALLAGHER. Madam Speaker, I stand before you today in strong 
support of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022.
  This year's NDAA includes a top-line budget that restores funding for 
shipbuilding, procurement, missile defense, and a number of other 
priorities that will help ensure the national defense of our great 
Nation.

  The NDAA continues to support and improve the lives of those who 
sacrifice for our country on a daily basis by authorizing a military 
basic pay raise of 2.7 percent. The bill reinforces the committee's 
longstanding commitment to the military family by requiring DOD to 
increase parental leave, expand the in-home childcare pilot program, it 
improves support available to military families with special needs 
children, and provides comprehensive reform of DOD's family violence 
prevention and response program.
  It also requires the Department to standardize the definition of 
professional military education across the joint force. It requires DOD 
to report to Congress on the number of military personnel infected with 
COVID-19 at the 2019 World Military Games in Wuhan, China. It increases 
funding for COVID-19 vaccine research, while providing $35 million for 
research and treatment of Havana syndrome.
  Madam Speaker, this is an outstanding NDAA. I want to thank the 
chairman and ranking member for their tireless efforts in working 
together to preserve the bipartisan spirit of this committee. I also 
want to thank the chairwoman of the Military Personnel Subcommittee 
that I work with, Ms. Speier.
  Madam Speaker, this is a bill we can all be proud of.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentlewoman from California (Ms. Speier), the chair of the Military 
Personnel Subcommittee.
  Ms. SPEIER. Madam Speaker, I thank our outstanding chairman.
  Madam Speaker, this helmet has been on my shelf in my office for 9 
years. It has the signatures of 58 military servicemembers who have 
been sexually assaulted. It was a daily reminder to me that we had so 
much work to do.
  The clarion call of them, and so many others, hundreds of thousands 
of other servicemembers who have been sexually assaulted in the 
military has

[[Page H7220]]

finally been heard. We cannot erase their anguish, their pain, their 
abuse, their scarring, but we can, through this NDAA, change it for 
future servicemembers.
  Make no mistake, Madam Speaker, this is a seismic reform of the 
military justice system as it relates to sexual assault, as it relates 
to murder, as it relates to kidnapping. It is, in fact, creating a 
separate, distinct office which will be populated by those who are 
professional lawyers skilled in sexual assault, and investigators who 
will do the investigations. They will make the decisions as to whether 
or not these cases move forward.
  Beyond that, we make a crime of sexual harassment. We don't go far 
enough because, unfortunately, it is still in the chain of command. 
Mind you, 100,000 servicemembers are sexually harassed every year. 
Sexual harassment begets sexual assault. We have more work to do there.
  Beyond that, in this particular measure we have a 2.7 percent 
increase for our servicemembers. We also provide up to 12 weeks of 
parental leave. Our version had a required opportunity for 12 weeks, 
but that was changed, and, hopefully, we will move on that in the 
future. We are improving childcare centers that are failing.
  We have required an independent review commission to look at suicides 
within the military.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentlewoman has expired.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield an additional 30 
seconds to the gentlewoman from California.
  Ms. SPEIER. Madam Speaker, we have now required racial and gender 
data collection for NJP. We also are providing better access to mental 
health.
  In the end, when servicemembers serve so do their families. This bill 
delivers on our commitment to them and to the military families. It 
also honors the memory of Specialist Guillen and others like her who 
have been killed, as well as the tens of thousands of survivors living 
with the scars of sexual assault.
  Madam Speaker, I thank Josh Connolly, my chief of staff; Brian 
Collins; Chuck Jackson, my fellow. I also thank the committee staff, 
Ilka Regino, Hannah Kaufman, Dave Giachetti, Ranking Member   Mike 
Gallagher, and a special thanks to Chairman Adam Smith, who has worked 
so closely with me in making sure we got to this point.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the 
gentleman from California (Mr. Garcia).
  Mr. GARCIA of California. Madam Speaker, I want to commend both sides 
of the aisle for a rather strong National Defense Authorization Act and 
commend the gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Rogers) for his revisions.
  Madam Speaker, it is a good top-line NDAA, it makes the strategic and 
tactical level investments necessary to catch up and keep pace with 
China. A lot of this technology that we are investing in is developed, 
built, and tested in my district, the 25th Congressional District.
  This removes red flag provisions. It allows for those who don't want 
to get vaccinated to be separated from the service with an honorable 
discharge.
  Clearly, I support this bill and it is an excellent NDAA. I do think 
we need to do better when it comes to our troops' base pay. Some may 
tout the 2.7 percent pay increase. I see it as anemic, frankly, and it 
is actually aggravating the pay gap between military servicemembers and 
their civilian counterparts.
  With record inflation, our troops, especially the junior enlisted, 
continue to be hammered financially. If we want to deter threats and 
win wars in the modern battlefield, which we have to, we need to 
attract and retain more talent.
  If we want to end things like conscription, and we should, we need to 
better incentivize our enlisted ranks to join and stay in. I urge 
support.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my 
time.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the 
gentleman from Texas (Mr. Fallon).

  Mr. FALLON. Madam Speaker, I want to take a minute to thank Ranking 
Member Rogers for his tremendous leadership.
  Madam Speaker, I rise today in strong support of the 2022 National 
Defense Authorization Act. Not only does this bill authorize the 
necessary investments to maintain our global competitiveness in the 
face of increasing Chinese and Russian aggression, but it takes 
critical steps to protect our men and women in uniform.
  In particular, this bill authorizes almost $200 million in lifesaving 
technology to prevent Humvee rollovers. I am honored to represent Red 
River Army Depot where a significant portion of this work will be done.
  The investment will save the American taxpayers $12.8 billion 
compared to the Army's original plan, and it will save countless lives.
  Madam Speaker, I thank the ranking member and all of our colleagues 
on the Armed Services Committee for their work on this, and I urge 
final passage of this bill.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my 
time.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the 
gentlewoman from Florida (Mrs. Cammack).
  Mrs. CAMMACK. Madam Speaker, I thank the ranking member of the Armed 
Services Committee and all of my colleagues for bringing us to this 
point here today.
  Madam Speaker, I rise in support of the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022. I want to sincerely thank every 
single member who worked in a productive, constructive, and helpful 
manner to get us to this finish line.
  Funding our military, taking care of our troops, and providing for 
the common defense is, in fact, our duty. Promises made, promises kept. 
We did what we said we were going to do. No dishonorable discharges for 
servicemembers who refuse the vaccine, and it is retroactive. No 
unconstitutional red flag laws. We killed and buried the dangerous 
office of domestic extremism.
  This bill counters China, gets them out of our supply chain, and 
holds this administration accountable on Afghanistan. This bill is a 
win for our military, our communities, our national guard, for our 
country.
  It is time to stop talking about getting Americans out of 
Afghanistan. It is time to stop talking about securing the border. It 
is time to stop talking about holding China accountable. It is time for 
action. This bill does all that and more.
  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes.''
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I reserve the balance of my 
time.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the 
gentleman from Colorado (Mr. Lamborn).
  Mr. LAMBORN. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of S. 1605, the Fiscal 
Year 2022 National Defense Authorization Act. I commend our chairman 
and ranking member for negotiating a strong bipartisan bill, which 
provides our troops with the resources they need to accomplish the 
missions they are given.
  I thank my partner and chairman on the Readiness Subcommittee, John 
Garamendi, for his leadership and hard work in crafting legislation 
that we can all support. I thank my committee staff, Ian Bennitt, Dave 
Sienicki, Whitney Verett, and Kyle Noyes, and my Space Force Fellow--
first time in congressional history--Chris Brown, for all of their 
exemplary professionalism.

                              {time}  2045

  This legislation could not come at a more opportune time. As we 
speak, Russia is amassing troops on the border of Ukraine, and China 
continues to rapidly modernize their strategic capabilities, including 
hypersonic drive vehicles, with their eyes on Taiwan.
  This legislation is not perfect, but what it does do is ramp up 
procurement of vital weapons systems, support our combatant commands, 
restore spending to essential readiness accounts, and continue 
modernizing our strategic capabilities in the space and nuclear 
domains.
  Importantly, it also provides some protections, partly through my 
amendment, for those troops who do not take the COVID-19 vaccine and 
requires DOD to consider natural immunity as part of their exemption 
policy. We also removed troubling red-flag language and the requirement 
for women to register for Selective Service.

[[Page H7221]]

  Madam Speaker, this is a good bill. I am happy to support this 
legislation, and I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes.''
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I am prepared to close at 
this point if the gentleman is.
  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I yield myself the balance of 
my time.
  Madam Speaker, I want to again thank Chairman Smith, Chairman Reed, 
Ranking Member Inhofe, and all the members of HASC and SASC for their 
tremendous work this year. I also want to thank our committee staff on 
both sides of the aisle, as well as staff from leadership, legislative 
counsel, and CBO, for their hard work and dedication. Enormous numbers 
of hours were put into this endeavor over the course of this year, and 
I can't overstate how much I appreciate the staff work.
  Finally, Madam Speaker, today is the day we honor the brave 3,500 
American servicemembers killed or wounded in Pearl Harbor. On that day 
and again on September 11, our Nation came together and vowed to defend 
our homeland and protect our freedom from all enemies. Each year, 
Congress comes together in an effort to fulfill that vow by passing the 
National Defense Authorization Act.
  Madam Speaker, I urge all Members to do that again this year and pass 
the NDAA, and I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield myself the balance of 
my time.
  Madam Speaker, I want to begin at an odd place. I don't want to 
discourage people from voting for this bill, but on the vaccine mandate 
issue, I want to make very clear that I heard a lot of things that were 
supposed to be done in this bill; none of that was done in the bill. We 
don't have anything in the bill which tells the military what they can 
or cannot do in terms of punishing people for refusing to meet the 
vaccine mandate, as a starting point. We certainly don't have anything 
in the bill that says natural immunity can count.
  We do have language in the bill that says that the military should 
take a look at how the vaccine mandate could be--sorry. It is not in 
the bill; it is in bill language, which is a different thing. It says 
you can look at how the vaccine mandate is affecting recruitment and 
retention, and that is fine.
  But all that other stuff, Madam Speaker, for those of you who are 
listening and thinking I may have lost my mind, I have not. We did not 
support that and did not do that.
  That minor point aside, this is an outstanding piece of legislation 
that is truly bipartisan. There are a lot of small, little things here 
and there. But, again, the big picture is everything we do in this bill 
and everything that you heard, Madam Speaker, from primarily the chairs 
and ranking members of our subcommittee, an exhaustive list of all the 
provisions that are so important in making sure that we meet our 
obligations on national security, defense, and supporting the men and 
women who serve. It is a ton of work to figure out those policies, and 
it has never been, in my view, more important during my time in 
Congress.
  As we have heard, we have these threats that are out there. They are 
real and as complex as they have ever been. Then also, we have the 
rapid pace of technology and innovation that is changing what is 
necessary to provide adequate deterrence and to provide adequate 
defense on a minute-to-minute basis.
  The most crucial thing in our ability to meet our national security 
objectives is: How quickly are we going to innovate? How quickly are we 
going to adapt?
  We are not innovating and adapting quickly enough right now, and 
there are a whole bunch of provisions in this bill to help push the 
Pentagon in the correct direction, to help make sure we give them the 
help they need or, in some cases, the push they need to adopt the 
technology that is going to move us in a better direction.
  We also have a lot in this bill to help improve competition and to 
deal with some of the very painful cost overruns that we have seen on 
programs like the KC-46 tanker, programs like the F-35, and a whole 
series of other issues.
  We introduce competition, and we introduce ways to make sure that we 
take advantage of technology because every time I see a cost overrun--
and the Speaker is uniquely positioned to understand this. Again, we 
have these terrible cost overruns we hear about, and we always hear: 
Oh, well, it is a software problem.
  Well, yes, it is like a multibillion-dollar software problem. So why 
don't we fix those software problems and save us a lot of money?
  This bill pushes us more in the direction of getting after those 
problems than any bill that I have worked on. It is an incredibly 
important piece of legislation that moves us forward in a positive 
direction.
  Yes, we are also able to carry a few issues that were not in our 
jurisdiction. In fact, Madam Speaker, with the permission of everyone, 
the chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee has arrived and was going to 
speak.
  Madam Speaker, if I could yield to him just 1 minute or 2 to talk 
about the Committee on Foreign Affairs because the committee 
reauthorized a provision that is contained in this bill as well. I want 
to make sure the distinguished chairman of the Foreign Affairs 
Committee has at least a couple of minutes.

  Madam Speaker, I yield 2 minutes of my remaining time to the 
gentleman from New York (Mr. Meeks) to talk about the Foreign Affairs 
provision, and then I will close when he is done.
  Mr. MEEKS. Madam Speaker, I want to thank the distinguished chair of 
the House Armed Services Committee for all of his hard work in putting 
together, as he was just closing, what I think is a bill that is one of 
the best--a lot of hard work that he has done. I thank the ranking 
member also.
  Madam Speaker, I rise today to speak in favor of passing this measure 
here before us today.
  Every year for the past six decades, Congress has passed a Defense 
authorization bill. This is an important bipartisan tradition, and I 
commend, as I said, Chairman Smith for his admirable work carrying out 
this legacy.
  Unfortunately, Congress has been asleep at the wheel when it comes to 
our State Department. We have not passed a comprehensive State 
Department authorization in nearly two decades. Congress has been 
attuned to defense for decades, but we have consistently left diplomacy 
out to dry.
  I am glad that tonight we will be ending this trend by passing out 
both a Defense authorization bill and a bipartisan State authorization 
bill contained therein. We need a State Department for the century 
ahead, not decades past, and my State authorization bill will now put 
us on that track.
  Now, no bill is perfect. Unfortunately, I am disappointed that there 
are some provisions that were not included in this NDAA. Saudi Arabia's 
abuse against dissidents and civil society has continued since the 
brutal murder of Jamal Khashoggi, yet two bipartisan House provisions 
that addressed some of these human rights violations were dropped in 
the final package. Other amendments that would have ended needless 
civilian casualties resulting from the brutal war in Yemen were also 
removed by Senate Republicans, though we had a bipartisan agreement in 
this House.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentleman has expired.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I yield an additional 30 
seconds to the gentleman from New York.
  Mr. MEEKS. Finally, Madam Speaker, provisions promoting diversity and 
other management reforms at the State Department were also left out.
  These are just a few examples of where the bill falls a little short. 
Despite the efforts of many of our members of the Foreign Affairs 
Committee, and my own as chair, we were unable to secure the requisite 
support from Senate Republicans to advance important provisions in this 
final bill.
  Nevertheless, Madam Speaker, there are other important provisions 
contained in this NDAA, including State authorization, and I urge my 
colleagues to vote in the affirmative.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, I want to start by thanking 
the staff for the outstanding job that they do. As I have always said, 
Members have constituents coming at us on a variety of different 
issues. We come up with ideas and say we ought to do this. And from 
that, that idea actually has to be written down and has to get 
approval. It is the staff that does all

[[Page H7222]]

that tireless work to make sure that we get the final product that is 
in front of us. I really, really want to thank the staff.
  I want to emphasize the fact that our staff on the Armed Services 
Committee is a bipartisan staff. It is the only committee in Congress 
that does that. Whether we are in charge or the Republicans are in 
charge, the staff is bipartisan, and I think that is incredibly 
important in getting the work done in the way that we do, working 
together to produce this product. This is a product every single Member 
of this body can be proud of, and it is a product I think every single 
Member of this body should vote for.
  Madam Speaker, I urge passage, and I yield back the balance of my 
time.
  Mr. McHENRY. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of S. 1605, the 
National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for fiscal year 2022.
  Debt Bondage is a terrible crime, and many victims find themselves 
trapped in a perpetual cycle of forced labor and coerced debt because 
of it. Helping these survivors regain their livelihood is a nonpartisan 
issue.
  Earlier this year, the Financial Services Committee held a hearing on 
the financing of human trafficking. We heard from powerful witnesses, 
including Reverend Doctor Marian Hatcher, who is a trafficking 
survivor. It was her story, which inspired my original bill H.R. 2332, 
the Debt Bondage Repair Act.
  Dr. Hatcher, like too many in this country, fell victim to human 
traffickers. Thankfully, she was able to escape a terrible situation 
and restore her life. However, she struggled to reestablish herself 
because of her credit score, which was negatively affected by loans she 
was forced to obtain her traffickers.
  Madam Speaker, this is how these criminals trap an individual into a 
cycle of victimization. Traffickers will take out loans, open 
businesses, and destroy their victim's credit, which forces them to 
remain a victim until they pay off the debt. Too often, these victims 
are never able to get out.
  Section 6102 in the final text has the potential to help thousands of 
victims every year by ensuring that a consumer reporting agency may not 
furnish a credit report with adverse information from a severe form of 
trafficking. While this does not erase the terrible crimes committed 
against them, it will help survivors to regain their financial freedom 
and begin to rebuild their lives.
  I will conclude by thanking Chairwoman Waters for passing my bill 
H.R. 2332 on suspension earlier this Congress, and for including my 
provision in the House NDAA base text. Additionally, I would like to 
thank the numerous trafficking advocacy groups and the Consumer Data 
Industry Association for their work on H.R. 2332.
  I urge my colleagues to support the conference agreement.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. All time for debate has expired.
  Pursuant to House Resolution 838, the previous question is ordered on 
the bill, as amended.
  The question is on the third reading of the bill.
  The bill was ordered to be read a third time, and was read the third 
time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the passage of the bill.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the ayes appeared to have it.
  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Madam Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and 
nays.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to section 3(s) of House Resolution 
8, the yeas and nays are ordered.
  Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX, further proceedings on this question 
are postponed.
