    The Committee on Rules, having had under consideration 
House Resolution 430, by a non-record vote, report the same to 
the House with the recommendation that the resolution be 
adopted.

               Brief Summary of Provisions of Resolution

    The resolution provides for the consideration of H.R. 3230, 
the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 1997, 
under a structured rule. The rule waives all points of order 
against the bill and against its consideration and provides for 
two hours of general debate divided equally between the 
chairman and ranking minority member of the Committee on 
National Security.
    The rule makes in order the committee amendment in the 
nature of a substitute printed in the bill as an original bill 
for the purpose of amendment and waives all points of order 
against the substitute. The rule also provides that, except as 
specified in section 4 of the resolution, amendments will be 
considered only in the order and manner specified in this 
report. Except as otherwise provided in this report, amendments 
shall be debatable for 10 minutes divided between a proponent 
and an opponent. Amendments shall be considered as read and are 
not amendable (except for pro forma amendments offered by the 
Chairman and ranking minority member of the National Security 
Committee). All points of order against amendments printed in 
this report or those described in section 3 of this resolution 
are waived. The rule also provides for an extra 40 minutes 
debate on Cooperative Threat Reduction with the former Soviet 
Union (part A).
    The rule authorizes the Chairman of the National Security 
Committee or his designee to offer amendments en bloc 
consisting of 
amendments in part B of this report or germane modifications 
thereto, which shall be considered as read except that 
modifications shall be reported, shall be debatable for 20 
minutes divided equally between the Chairman and ranking member 
of the National Security Committee or their designees and which 
shall not be subject to amendment or demand for division of the 
question.
    The rule further provides that, for the purposes of 
inclusion in such amendments en bloc, an amendment printed in 
the form of a motion to strike may be modified to the form of a 
germane perfecting amendment to the text originally proposed to 
be stricken. The original proponent of an amendment included in 
such amendments en bloc may insert a statement in the 
Congressional Record immediately before the disposition of the 
en bloc amendments.
    The rule permits the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole 
to postpone votes on any amendment and to reduce to 5 minutes 
the time for voting after the first of a series of votes 
provided that the first vote is not less than 15 minutes. The 
rule also permits the Chairman of the Committee of the Whole to 
recognize for consideration any amendment out of the order in 
which it is printed in this report, but not sooner than one 
hour after the Chairman of the National Security Committee or a 
designee announces from the floor a request to that effect.
    Finally, the rule provides one motion to recommit with or 
without instructions.

or Representative Frank of Massachusetts, or a Designee, Debatable for 
                               30 Minutes

  At the end of title X (page 359, after line 20), insert the 
following new section:

SEC.     . DEFENSE BURDENSHARING.

  (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
          (1) Although the Cold War has ended, the United 
        States continues to spend billions of dollars to 
        promote regional security and to make preparations for 
        regional contingencies.
          (2) United States defense expenditures primarily 
        promote United States national security interests; 
        however, they also significantly contribute to the 
        defense of our allies.
          (3) In 1993, the gross domestic product of the United 
        States equaled $6,300,000,000,000, while the gross 
        domestic product of other NATO member countries totaled 
        $7,200,000,000,000.
          (4) Over the course of 1993, the United States spent 
        4.7 percent of its gross domestic product on defense, 
        while other NATO members collectively spent 2.5 percent 
        of their gross domestic product on defense.
          (5) In addition to military spending, foreign 
        assistance plays a vital role in the establishment and 
        maintenance of stability in other nations and in 
        implementing the United States national security 
        strategy.
          (6) This assistance has often prevented the outbreak 
        of conflicts which otherwise would have required costly 
        military interventions by the United States and our 
        allies.
          (7) From 1990-1993, the United States spent 
        $59,000,000,000 in foreign assistance, a sum which 
        represents an amount greater than any other nation in 
        the world.
          (8) In 1995, the United States spent over 
        $10,000,000,000 to promote European security, while 
        European NATO nations only contributed $2,000,000,000 
        toward this effort.
          (9) With a smaller gross domestic product and a 
        larger defense budget than its European NATO allies, 
        the United States shoulders an unfair share of the 
        burden of the common defense.
          (10) Because of this unfair burden, the Congress 
        previously voted to require United States allies to 
        bear a greater share of the costs incurred for keeping 
        United States military forces permanently assigned in 
        their countries.
          (11) As a result of this action, for example, Japan 
        now pays over 75 percent of the nonpersonnel costs 
        incurred by United States military forces permanently 
        assigned there, while our European allies pay for less 
        than 25 percent of these same costs. Japan signed a new 
        Special Measures Agreement this year which will 
        increase Japan's contribution toward the cost of 
        stationing United States troops in Japan by 
        approximately $30,000,000 a year over the next five 
        years.
          (12) These increased contributions help to rectify 
        the imbalance in the burden shouldered by the United 
        States for the common defense.
          (13) The relative share of the burden of the common 
        defense still falls too heavily on the United States, 
        and our allies should dedicate more of their own 
        resources to defending themselves.
  (b) Efforts To Increase Allied Burdensharing.--The President 
shall seek to have each nation that has cooperative military 
relations with the United States (including security 
agreements, basing arrangements, or mutual participation in 
multinational military organizations or operations) take one or 
more of the following actions:
          (1) For any nation in which United States military 
        personnel are assigned to permanent duty ashore, 
        increase its financial contributions to the payment of 
        the nonpersonnel costs incurred by the United States 
        Government for stationing United States military 
        personnel in that nation, with a goal of achieving the 
        following percentages of such costs:
                  (A) By September 30, 1997, 37.5 percent.
                  (B) By September 30, 1998, 50 percent.

                  (D) By September 30, 2000, 75 percent.
        An increase in financial contributions by any nation 
        under this paragraph may include the elimination of 
        taxes, fees, or other charges levied on United States 
        military personnel, equipment, or facilities stationed 
        in that nation.
          (2) Increase its annual budgetary outlays for 
        national defense as a percentage of its gross domestic 
        product by 10 percent or at least to a level 
        commensurate to that of the United States by September 
        30, 1997.
          (3) Increase its annual budgetary outlays for foreign 
        assistance (to promote democratization, economic 
        stabilization, transparency arrangements, defense 
        economic conversion, respect for the rule of law, and 
        internationally recognized human rights) by 10 percent 
        or at least to a level commensurate to that of the 
        United States by September 30, 1997.
          (4) Increase the amount of military assets (including 
        personnel, equipment, logistics, support and other 
        resources) that it contributes, or would be prepared to 
        contribute, to multinational military activities 
        worldwide, including United Nations or regional peace 
        operations.
  (c) Authorities to Encourage Actions by United States 
Allies.--In seeking the actions described in subsection (b) 
with respect to any nation, or in response to a failure by any 
nation to undertake one or more of such actions, the President 
may take any of the following measures:
          (1) Reduce the end strength level of members of the 
        Armed Forces assigned to permanent duty ashore in that 
        nation.
          (2) Impose on that nation taxes, fees, or other 
        charges similar to those that such nation imposes on 
        United States forces stationed in that nation.
          (3) Reduce (through rescission, impoundment, or other 
        appropriate procedures as authorized by law) the amount 
        the United States contributes to the NATO Civil Budget, 
        Military Budget, or Security Investment Program.
          (4) Suspend, modify, or terminate any bilateral 
        security agreement the United States has with that 
        nation.
          (5) Reduce (through rescission, impoundment or other 
        appropriate procedures as authorized by law) any United 
        States bilateral assistance appropriated for that 
        nation.
          (6) Take any other action the President determines to 
        be appropriate as authorized by law.
  (d) Report on Progress in Increasing Allied Burdensharing.--
Not later than March 1, 1997, the Secretary of Defense shall 
submit to Congress a report on--
          (1) steps taken by other nations to complete the 
        actions described in subsection (b);
          (2) all measures taken by the President, including 
        those authorized in subsection (c), to achieve the 
        actions described in subsection (b); and
          (3) the budgetary savings to the United States that 
        are expected to accrue as a result of the steps 
        described under paragraph (1).
  (e) Report on National Security Bases for Forward Deployment 
and Burdensharing Relationships.--(1) In order to ensure the 
best allocation of budgetary resources, the President shall 
undertake a review of the status of elements of the United 
States Armed Forces that are permanently stationed outside the 
United States. The review shall include an assessment of the

        deployment of elements of the United States Armed 
        Forces.

        sealift, or joint training operations) to meet such 
        alliance requirements or national security interests, 
        with such alternatives identified and described in 
        detail.
          (E) The costs and force structure configurations 
        associated with such alternatives to forward 
        deployment.
          (F) The financial contributions that allies of the 
        United States make to common defense efforts (to 
        promote democratization, economic stabilization, 
        transparency arrangements, defense economic conversion, 
        respect for the rule of law, and internationally 
        recognized human rights).
          (G) The contributions that allies of the United 
        States make to meeting the stationing costs associated 
        with the forward deployment of elements of the United 
        States Armed Forces.
          (H) The annual expenditures of the United States and 
        its allies on national defense, and the relative

has authority to take, direct others to take, recommend, or 
approve any personnel action, shall not, with respect to such 
authority, take or fail to take any personnel action with 
respect to an employee or applicant for employment if the

practice.
  (c) Reporting Requirement.--The Secretary of Defense shall,

following new section:

SEC.     . SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING NUCLEAR WEAPONS PROLIFERATION.

  (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that--
          (1) intelligence investigations by the United States 
        have revealed transfers from the People's Republic of 
        China (hereafter in this section referred to as the 
        ``PRC'') to Pakistan of sophisticated equipment 
        important to the development of nuclear weapons;
          (2) the PRC acceded to the Treaty on the Non-
        Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (hereafter in this 
        section referred to as the ``NPT'') as a nuclear-weapon 
        state on March 9, 1992;
          (3) Article I of the NPT stipulates that a nuclear-
        weapon state party to the treaty shall not in any way 
        encourage, assist, or induce any nonnuclear-weapon 
        state to manufacture or otherwise acquire nuclear 
        weapons;
          (4) the NPT establishes a non-nuclear-weapon state as 
        one which has not manufactured and exploded a nuclear 
        weapon by January 1, 1967;
          (5) Pakistan had not manufactured and exploded a 
        nuclear weapon by January 1, 1967;
          (6) Article III of the NPT requires each party to the 
        treaty not to provide to any nonnuclear-weapon state 
        equipment or material designed or prepared for the 
        processing, use, or production of special fissionable 
        material, unless the material is subject to the 
        safeguards stipulated in the treaty;
          (7) Pakistan has not acceded to the NPT, and nuclear-
        related equipment and material provided to Pakistan is 
        not subject to international safeguards;
          (8) under the NPT, assisting a nonnuclear-weapon 
        state to acquire unsafeguarded nuclear material 
        important to the manufacture of nuclear weapons is a 
        violation of Articles I and III of the NPT;
          (9) this transfer constitutes the latest example in a 
        consistent pattern of nuclear weapon-related exports by 
        the PRC to non-nuclear-weapon states in violation of 
        international treaties and agreements and United States 
        laws relating to the nonproliferation of nuclear 
        weapons; and
          (10) failure to enforce the applicable sanctions 
        available under United States law in this case would 
        compromise vital United States security interests and 
        undermine the credibility of United States and 
        international efforts to discourage commerce in 
        nuclear-related equipment, technology, and materials.
  (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress 
that--
          (1) in response to the transfers from the PRC to 
        Pakistan of equipment important to the development of a 
        nuclear weapons program, the President should impose 
        the strongest possible sanctions available under United 
        States law on all Chinese official and commercial 
        entities associated directly or indirectly with the 
        research, development, sale, transportation, or 
        financing of any nuclear or military industrial product 
        or service made available for export since March 9, 
        1992; and
          (2) the President should not, in this case, exercise 
        his authority to waive sanctions provided under United 
        States law.

SEC. 1041. SENSE OF CONGRESS CONCERNING ASSISTING OTHER COUNTRIES TO 
                    IMPROVE SECURITY OF FISSILE MATERIAL.

  (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
          (1) With the end of the Cold War, the world is faced 
        with the need to manage the dismantling of vast numbers 
        of nuclear weapons and the disposition of the fissile 
        materials that they contain.
          (2) If recently agreed reductions in nuclear weapons 
        are fully implemented, tens of thousands of nuclear 
        weapons, containing a hundred tons or more of plutonium 
        and many hundreds of tons of highly enriched uranium, 
        will no longer be needed for military purposes.
          (3) Plutonium and highly enriched uranium are the 
        essential ingredients of nuclear weapon.
          (4) Limits on access to plutonium and highly enriched 
        uranium are the primary technical barrier to acquiring 
        nuclear weapons capability in the world today.
          (5) Several kilograms of plutonium, or several times 
        that amount of highly enriched uranium, are sufficient 
        to make a nuclear weapons.
          (6) Plutonium and highly enriched uranium will 
        continue to pose a potential threat for as long as they 
        exist.
          (7) Action is required to secure and account for 
        plutonium and highly enriched uranium.
          (8) It is in the national interest of the United 
        States to--
                  (A) minimize the risk that fissile materials 
                could be obtained by unauthorized parties;
                  (B) minimize the risk that fissile materials 
                could be reintroduced into the arsenals from 
                which they came, halting or reversing the arms 
                reduction process; and
                  (C) strengthen the national and international 
                control mechanisms and incentives designed to 
                ensure continued arms reductions and prevent 
                the spread of nuclear weapons.
  (b) Sense of Congress.--In light of the findings contained in 
subsection (a), it is the sense of Congress that the United 
States has a national security interest in assisting other 
countries to improve the security of their stocks of fissile 
material.
