        (a) In General.--Subject to subsections (b) through (e), from
    amounts made available for obligation under the F-35 aircraft program,
    the Secretary of Defense may enter into one or more contracts, beginning
    with the fiscal year 2018 program year, for the procurement of economic
    order quantities of material and equipment that has completed formal

        (b) Limitation.--The total amount obligated under all contracts
    entered into under subsection (a) shall not exceed $661,000,000.
        (c) Preliminary Findings.--Before entering into a contract under
    subsection (a), the Secretary shall make each of the following findings
    with respect to such contract:
                (1) The use of such a contract will result in significant
            savings of the total anticipated costs of carrying out the
            program through annual contracts.
                (2) The minimum need for the property to be procured is
            expected to remain substantially unchanged during the
            contemplated contract period in terms of production rate,
            procurement rate, and total quantities.
                (3) There is a reasonable expectation that, throughout the
            contemplated contract period, the Secretary will request funding
            for the contract at the level required to avoid contract
            cancellation.
                (4) That there is a stable design for the property to be
            procured and that the technical risks associated with such
            property are not excessive.
                (5) The estimates of both the cost of the contract and the
            anticipated cost avoidance through the use of an economic order
            quantity contract are realistic.

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1320]]

                (6) Entering into the contract will promote the national
            security interests of the United States.

        (d) Certification Requirement.--Except as provided in subsection
    (e), the Secretary of Defense may not enter into a contract under
    subsection (a) until a period of 30 days has elapsed following the date
    on which the Secretary certifies to the congressional defense
    committees, in writing, that each of the following conditions is
    satisfied:
                (1) A sufficient number of end items of the system being
            acquired under such contract have been delivered at or within
            the most recently available estimates of the program acquisition
            unit cost or procurement unit cost for such system to determine
            that the estimates of the unit costs are realistic.
                (2) During the fiscal year in which such contract is to be
            awarded, sufficient funds will be available to perform the
            contract in such fiscal year, and the future-years defense
            program submitted to Congress under section 221 of title 10,
            United States Code, for that fiscal year will include the
            funding required to execute the program without cancellation.
                (3) The contract is a fixed-price type contract.
                (4) The proposed contract provides for production at not
            less than minimum economic rates given the existing tooling and
            facilities.
                (5) The Secretary has determined that each of the conditions
            described in paragraphs (1) through (6) of subsection (c) will
            be met by such contract and has provided the basis for such
            determination to the congressional defense committees.
                (6) The determination under paragraph (5) was made after the
            completion of a cost analysis performed by the Director of Cost
            Assessment and Program Evaluation for the purpose of section
            2334(e)(1) of title 10, United States Code, and the analysis
            supports that determination.

    Defense may enter into a contract under subsection (a) on or after March
    1, 2018, if--
                (1) the Director of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation

    applicant a notice of presumed risk under paragraph (2), the
    Clearinghouse shall provide the same notice to the governor of the State
    in which the project is located and request that the governor provide
    the Clearinghouse any comments the governor believes of relevance to the
    application. The Secretary of Defense shall consider the comments of the
    governor in the Secretary's evaluation of whether the project presents
    an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States and
    shall include the comments with the finding provided to the Secretary of
    Transportation pursuant to section 44718(f) of title 49.

    departments and agencies of the Federal Government, an integrated review
    process to ensure timely notification and consideration of energy
    projects filed with the Secretary of Transportation pursuant to section
    44718 of title 49 that may have an adverse impact on military operations
    and readiness.
        ``(5) The Clearinghouse shall establish procedures for the
    Department of Defense for the coordinated consideration of and response
    to a request for a review received from another Federal agency, a State
    government, an Indian tribal government, a local government, a
    landowner, or the developer of an energy project, including guidance to
    personnel at each military installation in the United States on how to
    initiate such procedures and ensure a coordinated Department response.
        ``(6) The Clearinghouse shall develop procedures for conducting

    SEC. 335. REPORT ON EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON DEPARTMENT OF
                            DEFENSE.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) Secretary of Defense James Mattis has stated: ``It is
            appropriate for the Combatant Commands to incorporate drivers of
            instability that impact the security environment in their areas
            into their planning.''.
                (2) Secretary of Defense James Mattis has stated: ``I agree
            that the effects of a changing climate -- such as increased
            maritime access to the Arctic, rising sea levels,
            desertification, among others -- impact our security
            situation.''.
                (3) Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Joseph Dunford has
            stated: ``It's a question, once again, of being forward
            deployed, forward engaged, and be in a position to respond to
            the kinds of natural disasters that I think we see as a second
            or third order effect of climate change.''.
                (4) Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has stated:
            ``Over the next 20 years and more, certain pressures-population,
            energy, climate, economic, environmental-could combine with
            rapid cultural, social, and technological change to produce new
            sources of deprivation, rage, and instability.''.
                (5) Former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army Gordon Sullivan
            has stated: ``Climate change is a national security issue. We
            found that climate instability will lead to instability in
            geopolitics and impact American military operations around the
            world.''.
                (6) The Office of the Director of National Intelligence
            (ODNI) has stated: ``Many countries will encounter climate-
            induced disruptions--such as weather-related disasters, drought,
            famine, or damage to infrastructure--that stress their capacity
            to respond, cope with, or adapt. Climate-related impacts will
            also contribute to increased migration, which can

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1358]]

            be particularly disruptive if, for example, demand for food and
            shelter outstrips the resources available to assist those in
            need.''.
                (7) The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has stated:
            ``DOD links changes in precipitation patterns with potential
            climate change impacts such as changes in the number of
            consecutive days of high or low precipitation as well as
            increases in the extent and duration of droughts, with an
            associated increase in the risk of wildfire. . . this may result
            in mission vulnerabilities such as reduced live-fire training
            due to drought and increased wildfire risk.''.
                (8) A three-foot rise in sea levels will threaten the
            operations of more than 128 United States military sites, and it
            is possible that many of these at-risk bases could be submerged
            in the coming years.
                (9) As global temperatures rise, droughts and famines can
            lead to more failed states, which are breeding grounds of
            extremist and terrorist organizations.
                (10) In the Marshall Islands, an Air Force radar
            installation built on an atoll at a cost of $1,000,000,000 is
            projected to be underwater within two decades.
                (11) In the western United States, drought has amplified the
            threat of wildfires, and floods have damaged roads, runways, and
            buildings on military bases.
                (12) In the Arctic, the combination of melting sea ice,
            thawing permafrost, and sea-level rise is eroding shorelines,
            which is damaging radar and communication installations,
            runways, seawalls, and training areas.
                (13) In the Yukon Training Area, units conducting artillery
            training accidentally started a wildfire despite observing the
            necessary practices during red flag warning conditions.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) climate change is a direct threat to the national
            security of the United States and is impacting stability in
            areas of the world both where the United States Armed Forces are
            operating today, and where strategic implications for future
            conflict exist;
                (2) there are complexities in quantifying the cost of
            climate change on mission resiliency, but the Department of
            Defense must ensure that it is prepared to conduct operations
            both today and in the future and that it is prepared to address
            the effects of a changing climate on threat assessments,
            resources, and readiness; and
                (3) military installations must be able to effectively
            prepare to mitigate climate damage in their master planning and
            infrastructure planning and design, so that they might best
            consider the weather and natural resources most pertinent to
            them.

        (c) Report.--
                (1) Report required.--Not later than one year after the date
            of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall

            House of Representatives a report on vulnerabilities to military
            installations and combatant commander requirements resulting
            from climate change over the next 20 years.
                (2) Elements.--The report on vulnerabilities to military

                        (A) A list of the ten most vulnerable military
                    installations within each service based on the effects
                    of rising sea tides, increased flooding, drought,
                    desertification, wildfires, thawing permafrost, and any
                    other categories the Secretary determines necessary.
                        (B) An overview of mitigations that may be necessary
                    to ensure the continued operational viability and to
                    increase the resiliency of the identified vulnerable
                    military installations and the cost of such mitigations.
                        (C) A discussion of the climate-change related
                    effects on the Department, including the increase in the
                    frequency of humanitarian assistance and disaster relief
                    missions and the theater campaign plans, contingency
                    plans, and global posture of the combatant commanders.
                        (D) An overview of mitigations that may be necessary
                    to ensure mission resiliency and the cost of such

            policies inhibit the professional development of officers.

            current promotion timelines and the ``up-or-out'' system
            required by policy and law.
                (6) An analysis of the reasons and frequency with which
            officers in the grade of O-3 or above are passed over for
            promotion to the next higher grade, particularly those officers

            non-traditional career patterns.
                (7) The utility and feasibility of creating new competitive
            categories or an independent career and promotion path for
            officers in low-density military occupational specialties.

            progression, and traditional career patterns.
                (12) An analysis of how the Armed Forces can avoid an
            officer corps disproportionately weighted toward officers
            serving in the grades of major, lieutenant colonel, and colonel
            and Navy grades of lieutenant commander, commander, and captain,
            if statutory officer grade caps are relaxed.
                (13) The utility and feasibility of allowing officers to
            repeatedly and seamlessly transition between active duty and

    staff and such staff possesses the necessary skills, knowledge, and

    qualified experts under section 9903 of title 5, to hire experts as
    members of the cadre who are skilled professionals in intellectual

    preference to civilian employees of the Department of Defense, rather
    than members of the armed forces, to maintain continuity in the cadre.

                    coverage perpetuated by the current time-based periodic
                    reinvestigations model, particularly in light of the

                    information technology established by the Defense
                    Security Service to ensure a holistic and

        (a) Report on Plans to Address Developmental Test and Evaluation
    Responsibilities Within the Office of the Secretary of Defense.--

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1533]]

                (1) In general.--Not later than 60 days after the date of
            the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit
            to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House
            of Representatives a report containing a strategy to ensure that
            there is sufficient expertise, oversight, and policy direction
            on developmental test and evaluation within the Office of the
            Secretary of Defense after the completion of the reorganization
            of such Office required under section 901 of the National
            Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-
            328; 130 Stat. 2339).
                (2) Elements.--The report required by paragraph (1) shall
            address the following:
                        (A) The structure of the roles and responsibilities
                    of the senior Department of Defense official responsible
                    for developmental test and evaluation, as distinct from
                    operational test and evaluation or systems engineering.
                        (B) The location of the senior Department of Defense
                    official responsible for developmental test and
                    evaluation within the organizational structure of the
                    Office of the Secretary of Defense.
                        (C) An estimate of personnel and other resources
                    that should be made available to the senior Department
                    of Defense official responsible for developmental test
                    and evaluation to ensure that such official can provide
                    independent expertise, oversight, and policy direction
                    and guidance Department of Defense-wide.
                        (D) Methods to ensure that the senior Department of
                    Defense official responsible for developmental test and
                    evaluation will be empowered to facilitate Department of
                    Defense-wide efficiencies by helping programs to
                    optimize test designs and activities, including ensuring
                    access to program data and participation in acquisition
                    program oversight.
                        (E) Methods to ensure that an advocate for test and
                    evaluation workforce will continue to exist within the
                    acquisition workforce.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) developmental testing is critical to reducing
            acquisition program risk by providing valuable information to
            support sound decision making;
                (2) major defense acquisition programs often do not conduct
            enough developmental testing, so too many problems are first
            identified during operational testing, when they are expensive
            and time-consuming to fix; and
                (3) in order to ensure that effective developmental testing
            is conducted on major defense acquisition programs, the
            Secretary of Defense should--
                        (A) carefully consider where the senior Department
                    of Defense official responsible for developmental test
                    and evaluation is located within the organizational
                    structure of the Office of the Secretary of Defense; and
                        (B) ensure that such official has sufficient
                    authority and resources to provide oversight and policy
                    direction on developmental test and evaluation
                    Department of Defense-wide.

            Corrosion Policy and Oversight; and
                (2) containing a recommendation regarding whether to retain

    and the Armed Forces as the Secretary considers appropriate to ensure
    the proper discharge by the Department of Defense of functions relating
    to corrosion prevention and control and mitigation of corrosion in the
    absence of the Office.

            has been denied authorization by Congress.

        (a) Plan and Recommendations Required.--The Secretary of Defense, in
    concurrence with the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Treasury, and
    the Director of National Intelligence, shall assess and develop a plan
    and recommendations for agencies of the United States Government, other

        (b) Objectives.--The recommendations required by subsection (a)
    shall have the following objectives:
                (1) To increase collaboration and coordination among
            agencies of the United States Government in the identification
            and prevention of foreign investments that could potentially
            impair the national security of the United States.
                (2) To increase collaboration and cooperation among the

        (c) Analysis.--The recommendations required by subsection (a) shall
    be based upon analysis of the following:
                (1) Whether the current interagency vetting processes and
            policies place adequate focus on the potential threats presented
            by influence of the foreign governments over business entities
            seeking investment in the United States.
                (2) The current or projected major vulnerabilities of the
            defense industrial base pertaining to foreign investment,
            including in the areas of cybersecurity, reliance on foreign
            suppliers in the defense supply chain access to materials that
            are essential for national defense, and the use of
            transportation assets and other critical infrastructure for
            training, mobilizing, and deploying forces.
                (3) Whether the current interagency vetting process for
            foreign investments--

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1581]]

                        (A) requires additional resources to be effective;
                        (B) permits the interagency establishment adequate
                    time to thoroughly review transactions and to conduct
                    national security threat assessments;
                        (C) assesses the risks posed by transactions before
                    they are implemented; and
                        (D) provides adequate monitoring and compliance of
                    agreements to mitigate such risks.
                (4) The counterintelligence risks posed by purchases or
            leases of Federal land.
                (5) Whether and to what extent industrial espionage is
            occurring against private United States companies to obtain
            commercial secrets related to critical or foundational
            technologies.
                (6) Whether and to what extent foreseeable foreign
            investments have the potential to--
                        (A) reduce any United States technological or
                    industrial advantage of the United States; or
                        (B) increase the vulnerability of the United States
                    to information operations, including the purposeful
                    dissemination of false or misleading information to the
                    American public and the manipulation of American public
                    opinion on critical public policy issues.
                (7) Whether currently mandated annual reports to Congress on
            the interagency vetting of foreign investments should be revised
            to ensure that they provide valuable information.

        (d) Considerations.--The recommendations required by subsection (a)
    shall take into consideration each of the following:
                (1) Trends in foreign investment transactions, including
            joint ventures, the sale of assets pursuant to bankruptcy, and

    SEC. 1085. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING AIRCRAFT CARRIERS.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) Naval aviation was born in the United States when Eugene
            Ely launched from the deck of a United States Navy ship on
            November 14, 1910, in a Curtiss Model D.

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1603]]

                (2) In 1915, Cpt. Henry C. Mustin made the first catapult
            launch aboard a ship underway in a Curtiss Model AB-2, beginning
            a century of technological advancements that have led to today's
            Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System.
                (3) In 1924, Lt. Dixie Kiefer made the first night catapult
            launch in a Vought UO-1 in San Diego harbor.
                (4) The first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, USS
            Enterprise (CVN 65), was commissioned in 1961, ushering in a new
            era of the world's most dominant and capable warships.
                (5) In 2013, aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73)
            provided humanitarian assistance, medical supplies, food, and
            water to the victims in the Republic of the Philippines of Super
            Typhoon Haiyan, once again demonstrating the versatility of
            aircraft carriers for combat, diplomatic, and humanitarian
            operations.
                (6) In 2017, the first of the next generation of aircraft
            carriers, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78), was commissioned, marking
            a continuation of the innovative naval aviation spirit,
            technological advancement, and war fighting capabilities of
            aircraft carriers.
                (7) For over 70 years, aircraft carriers have been employed
            in every major and many smaller conflicts, including World War
            II, Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Lebanon, Libya, Operation Desert
            Storm, Afghanistan, Iraq, and the fight against terrorism.
                (8) The United States Navy's aircraft carriers are a
            cornerstone of the Nation's ability to project its power and
            strength.
                (9) When aircraft carriers sail the globe they are a
            statement of national purpose and a symbol of the Nation's
            industrial strength, competitive edge, and economic prosperity.
                (10) Aircraft carriers are 4.5 acres of sovereign United
            States territory enabling the Nation to reduce its dependency on
            other nations while it pursues its national security interests.
                (11) Aircraft carriers enable the United States Armed Forces
            to carry out operations from international waters, often
            obviating the need to obtain fly-over rights and land-base
            rights from other nations.
                (12) Aircraft carriers are modern, mobile United States
            military bases complete with airfield, hospital, and
            communications systems from which the United States can strike
            at its enemies.
                (13) Over 90 percent of world trade is moved by sea,
            including much of the world's gas and oil supply, and aircraft
            carriers patrol vital regions of the world to keep shipping
            lanes open and protect the interests of the United States and
            its allies.
                (14) There are more than 2,450 companies in 48 States and
            over 364 congressional districts, and more than 13,100
            shipbuilders, who proudly contribute to the construction and
            maintenance of these complex and technologically advanced ships.
                (15) Thousands of members of the United States Armed Forces
            have served the Nation aboard aircraft carriers in war, peace,
            and times of crisis.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) United States aircraft carriers are premier sea-based
            power projection platforms and have served the Nation's

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1604]]

            interests in times of war and peace, adapting to the immediate
            and ever-changing nature of the world for over 90 years; and
                (2) aircraft carrier contributions and heritage should be
            celebrated.
    SEC. 1086. SENSE OF CONGRESS RECOGNIZING THE UNITED STATES NAVY
                              SEABEES.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) On March 5, 1942, Navy Construction Force personnel,
            known as the ``Seabees'', were officially established by the
            Navy Department.
                (2) The purpose of the Navy Seabees is to build, maintain,
            and support base infrastructure in remote locations for the Navy
            and Marine Corps, while simultaneously being capable of engaging
            in combat operations.
                (3) The Navy Seabees dual-role is exemplified by the Seabee
            motto Construimus, Batuimus: We Build, We Fight.
                (4) Throughout their history, the Navy Seabees have answered
            the call of duty to protect the United States and its democratic
            values both in times of war and peace.
                (5) The Navy Seabees support United States national security
            at Navy fleet and combatant commands worldwide, through the
            construction, both on land and underwater, of bases, airfields,
            roads, bridges, and other infrastructure.
                (6) The Navy Seabees and their families have demonstrated
            unmatched courage and dedication to sacrifice for the United
            States, from service in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam to the
            recent conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere.
                (7) The Navy Seabees exhibit honor, personal courage, and
            commitment as they sacrifice their personal comfort to keep the
            United States safe from threats.
                (8) The Navy Seabees continue to display strength,
            professionalism, and bravery in the all-volunteer force.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress recognizes the United States Navy
    Seabees and the Navy personnel who comprise the construction force for
    the Navy and the Marine Corps as critical elements in deterring
    conflict, overcoming aggression, and rebuilding democratic institutions.

    SEC. 1095. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING WORLD WAR I.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The United States declared war against Germany on April
            6, 1917, to redress wrongs, including Germany's resumption of
            unrestricted submarine warfare, violation of United States
            neutrality, meddling in Mexican affairs, and denial of freedom
            of the seas to nonbelligerent nations.
                (2) The United States associated itself with the allied
            powers of the United Kingdom and its Commonwealth, France and
            its colonies, Russia, Italy, and Japan to defeat the German
            Empire.
                (3) The United States Army, consisting of the Regular Army,
            National Guard, and Reserve Corps, with the addition of
            volunteers and the draftees of the National Army, underwent a
            transformation from a frontier constabulary and coastal defense
            force to a modern land warfare force.
                (4) Early 20th century military and technological advances
            resulted in the incorporation of motor transport, aviation,
            anti-aircraft artillery, tanks, chemical weapons, submarines and
            anti-submarine warfare, underwater mines, and other innovations
            into the military arsenal of the United States.
                (5) The need to quickly build a military strength of four
            million soldiers and half a million sailors required the
            mobilization of the human resources of the United States, during
            which members of diverse ethnic groups, races, and creeds, both
            native-born and immigrant, forged a new American identity.
                (6) The United States Army maintained its defense of
            American seacoasts, southern border, and overseas possessions,
            while the Army American Expeditionary Forces arrived in Europe
            in June 1917 and deployed for combat operations in October.
                (7) By the end of World War I, almost 2,000,000 members of
            the Army served overseas in the American Expeditionary Forces.
                (8) During World War I, the United States Navy increased in
            strength from approximately 67,000 sailors and marines to
            approximately 500,000 sailors and marines by the war's end, and
            the size of the Navy increased from around 200 ships at the
            outbreak of war in Europe in 1914, to 342 vessels by the time
            the United States entered the war, and 774 vessels by the day of
            the Armistice
                (9) The Navy operated in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans,
            and the North and Mediterranean Seas in cooperation with allied
            navies.
                (10) The Navy began the fight against the German U-boat
            menace by first dispatching 34 destroyers stationed specifically
            for such purpose, which by war's end grew to 110 total
            destroyers
                (11) Navy vessels escorted troop transports carrying
            1,250,000 passengers and escorted supply transports carrying 27
            percent of all cargo shipped to Europe.

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1614]]

                (12) The Navy deployed five batteries of large-caliber
            battleship guns mounted on railroad trains to France for service
            as long-range artillery for the Army.
                (13) The United States Coast Guard transferred to the
            operational control of the Navy and augmented that service with
            officers and sailors, vessels of all types, and shore stations.
                (14) The United States Marine Corps, with an eventual
            wartime strength of 53,000 officers and men, detached the 5th
            and 6th regiments and a machine gun battalion to constitute an
            infantry brigade integrated into the Army's 2d Division for
            service in France.
                (15) On July 4, 1917, Colonel Charles E. Stanton, one of the
            officers on the staff of General John Pershing, commander of the
            American Expeditionary Forces in Europe, famously announced the
            commitment of the United States to the fight when Colonel
            Stanton proclaimed upon his arrival in France, ``Lafayette, we
            are here!''.
                (16) Whereas the American Expeditionary Forces formed three
            field armies, nine corps and 43 divisions, plus various units of
            the Services of Supply.
                (17) The American Expeditionary Forces suffered 255,000
            casualties and over 50,000 non-battle casualties while
            participating in 13 named campaigns in World War I.
                (18) Participation in World War I resulted in the completion
            of a period of reform and professionalism that transformed the
            Armed Forces from a small dispersed organization to a modern
            industrialized fighting force capable of global reach and
            influence.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--

    SEC. 1233. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON EUROPEAN SECURITY.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1658]]

                (1) Russia's ongoing aggressive actions, including its
            invasions of Georgia in 2008 and Ukraine in 2014, threats to
            North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies, rapid military
            modernization, advanced anti-access and area denial
            capabilities, increasing military activity in the Arctic region
            and Mediterranean Sea, evolving nuclear doctrine and
            capabilities, and violations of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear
            Forces Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union
            of Soviet Socialist Republics and the Treaty on Open Skies,
            constitute a major challenge to the security interests of the
            United States and its allies and partners in Europe.
                (2) Russia's ongoing malign influence activities, including
            misinformation, disinformation, propaganda, cyberattacks,
            election interference, active measures, and hybrid warfare
            operations pose not only a threat to the security interests of
            the United States and its allies and partners in Europe, but to
            the integrity of Western democracies and the institutions and
            alliances they support.
                (3) Russia's doctrine of ``escalate to de-escalate'', along
            with its tactical nuclear capabilities, threaten United States
            forces and European allies and exacerbate the risk of
            miscalculation and escalation in a crisis.
                (4) The European Deterrence Initiative (EDI) continues to
            improve credible deterrence against Russian aggression by--
                        (A) training and equipping military forces of NATO
                    allies and European partners;
                        (B) enhancing the indications and warning,
                    interoperability, and logistics capabilities of United
                    States allies and partners; and
                        (C) improving the agility and flexibility of
                    partners and allies to address threats across the full
                    spectrum of domains.
                (5) A strong NATO alliance is the cornerstone of
            transatlantic security cooperation and the guarantor of peace
            and stability in Europe.
                (6) The steps taken at the NATO 2014 Wales Summit and the
            NATO 2016 Warsaw Summit, including the adoption and
            implementation of the Readiness Action Plan (RAP), the formation
            of the Very High Joint Readiness Force (VJTF), the Enhanced
            Forward Presence (EFP) multinational battalions deployed to
            Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland, and the Tailored Forward
            Presence in Romania and Bulgaria, have strengthened NATO
            readiness and collective defense.
                (7) Montenegro's accession into NATO is a strong step toward
            strengthening the alliance, enhancing security and stability in
            Southeastern Europe, and reaffirming NATO's commitment to an
            ``Open Door'' policy.
                (8) Cooperation with non-NATO allies and members of the
            Partnership for Peace program enhances security and stability in
            Europe.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the United States should support a Europe whole, free,
            and at peace and the sovereign right of all European states to
            pursue integration into the Euro-Atlantic community through
            institutions such as NATO and the European Union;
                (2) the United States should develop and implement a policy
            and strategy backed by all elements of United States

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1659]]

            power to deter and, if necessary, defeat Russian aggression,
            which will require--
                        (A) enhancing United States military capability and
                    capacity in Europe, including strong consideration of
                    investments in increased permanently-stationed and
                    continued rotational forces as well as the facilities
                    and infrastructure necessary to support United States
                    presence and training with its allies and partners; and
                        (B) strengthening United States capability and
                    capacity to counter malign Russian influence, including
                    Russian hybrid warfare operations short of traditional
                    armed conflict, malicious Russian cyber activities, and
                    Russia's use of misinformation, disinformation, and
                    propaganda;
                (3) investments that support the security and stability of
            Europe, including the EDI, and support to European countries in
            further developing their security capabilities, are in the long-
            term national security interests of the United States, and as
            such, funds for such efforts should be included in the
            President's base budget request for the Department of Defense in
            order to fully support United States combat capability in
            Europe, facilitate efficient planning and execution, and ensure
            budgetary transparency;
                (4) the United States should maintain an ironclad commitment
            to its obligations under Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty,
            which declares that an ``armed attack against one or more [NATO
            allies] shall be considered an attack against them all'';
                (5) while NATO allies have made progress toward high levels
            of defense spending, it is important that all NATO allies
            fulfill their commitments to levels and composition of defense
            expenditures as agreed upon at the NATO 2014 Wales Summit and
            NATO 2016 Warsaw Summit in order to uphold their obligations
            under Article 3 of the North Atlantic Treaty to ``maintain and
            develop their individual and collective capacity to resist armed
            attack'';
                (6) NATO allies should continue to coordinate defense
            investments to both improve deterrence against Russian
            aggression and more appropriately balance defense spending
            across the alliance; and
                (7) because the NATO alliance defends not only the common
            security of the United States and its NATO allies, but our
            common values as well, it is essential that all NATO allies
            uphold their obligations under the North Atlantic Treaty to
            ``safeguard the freedom, common heritage and civilization of
            their peoples, founded on the principles of democracy,
            individual liberty and the rule of law''.

    SEC. 1236. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF NUCLEAR CAPABILITIES
                              OF NATO.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) The Warsaw Summit Communique, issued on July 9, 2016, by
            the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (in this section referred
            to as ``NATO'') clearly defines the need for, and the importance
            of, the nuclear mission of NATO.
                (2) The Warsaw Summit Communique states--
                        (A) with respect to the nuclear deterrence
                    capability of NATO, ``As a means to prevent conflict and
                    war, credible deterrence and defence is essential.
                    Therefore, deterrence and defence, based on an
                    appropriate mix of nuclear, conventional, and missile
                    defence capabilities, remains a core element of our
                    overall strategy. . . The fundamental purpose of NATO's
                    nuclear capability is to preserve peace, prevent
                    coercion, and deter aggression. Nuclear weapons are
                    unique. Any employment of nuclear weapons against NATO
                    would fundamentally alter the nature of a conflict. The
                    circumstances in which NATO might have to use nuclear
                    weapons are extremely remote'';
                        (B) with respect to the nature of the nuclear
                    deterrence posture of NATO, ``NATO must continue to
                    adapt its strategy in line with trends in the security
                    environment-including with respect to capabilities and
                    other measures required-to ensure that NATO's overall
                    deterrence and defence posture is capable of addressing
                    potential adversaries' doctrine and capabilities, and
                    that it remains credible, flexible, resilient, and
                    adaptable.''; and
                        (C) with respect to the importance of contributions
                    to the nuclear deterrence mission from across the NATO
                    alliance, ``The strategic forces of the Alliance,
                    particularly those of the United States, are the supreme
                    guarantee of the security of the Allies. The independent
                    strategic nuclear forces of the United Kingdom and
                    France have a deterrent role of their own and contribute
                    to the overall security of the Alliance. These Allies'
                    separate centres of decision-making contribute to
                    deterrence by complicating the calculations of potential
                    adversaries. NATO's nuclear deterrence posture also
                    relies, in part, on United States' nuclear weapons
                    forward-deployed in Europe and on capabilities and
                    infrastructure provided by Allies concerned. These
                    Allies will ensure that all components of NATO's nuclear
                    deterrent remain safe, secure, and effective. That
                    requires sustained leadership focus and institutional
                    excellence for the nuclear deterrence mission and
                    planning guidance aligned with 21st century
                    requirements. The Alliance will ensure the broadest
                    possible participation of Allies concerned in their
                    agreed nuclear burden-sharing arrangements.''.
                (3) Secretary of Defense James Mattis, in response to the
            advance policy questions for his Senate confirmation hearing on
            January 12, 2017, stated that--

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1663]]

                        (A) ``NATO's nuclear deterrence posture relies in
                    part on U.S. nuclear weapons forward-deployed in Europe
                    and on capabilities and infrastructure provided by NATO
                    allies. These capabilities include dual-capable aircraft
                    that contribute to current burden-sharing arrangements
                    within NATO. In general, we must take care to maintain
                    this particular capability, and to modernize it
                    appropriately and in a timely fashion.''; and
                        (B) the role of the nuclear weapons of the United
                    States is ``to deter nuclear war and to serve as last
                    resort weapons of self-defense. In this sense, U.S.
                    nuclear weapons are fundamental to our nation's security
                    and have historically provided a deterrent against
                    aggression and security assurance to U.S. allies. A
                    robust, flexible, and survivable U.S. nuclear arsenal
                    underpins the U.S. ability to deploy conventional forces
                    worldwide.''.
                (4) On March 28, 2017, General Curtis Scaparrotti, Commander
            of the United States European Command and the Supreme Allied
            Commander, Europe, testified to the Committee on Armed Services
            of the House of Representatives that ``NATO and U.S. nuclear
            forces continue to be a vital component of our deterrence. Our
            modernization efforts are crucial; we must preserve a ready,
            credible, and safe nuclear capability.''.
                (5) The Russian Federation is currently undergoing
            significant modernization and recapitalization of all three legs
            of its nuclear triad, continues to field and modernize a large
            variety of non-strategic nuclear weapons, and is developing and
            deploying new and unique nuclear capabilities.
                (6) Russia remains in violation of the INF Treaty due to the
            development, testing, and, most recently, the operational
            deployment of ground-launched cruise missiles in violation of
            the INF Treaty.
                (7) On March 28, 2017, General Paul Selva, Vice Chairman of
            the Joint Chiefs of Staff, described the security consequences
            of the deployment of such INF Treaty-violating missiles,
            testifying to the Committee on Armed Services of the House of
            Representatives that ``our assessment of the impact is that it
            more threatens NATO and infrastructure within the European
            continent than any other...area of the world that we have
            national interests in or alliance interests in.''.
                (8) On March 28, 2017, General Curtis Scaparrotti, in
            testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of the House of
            Representatives, responded to a question asking if Russia
            intends to return to compliance with the INF Treaty by stating,
            ``I don't have any indication that they will at this time.''.
                (9) Rhetoric from Russian officials has demonstrated that
            Moscow has sought to leverage its nuclear arsenal to threaten
            and intimidate neighboring countries, including members of NATO,
            as was the case when the Russian Ambassador to Denmark stated,
            ``Danish warships will be targets for Russian nuclear missiles''
            in response to Denmark's potential cooperation in the NATO
            missile defense system.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the nuclear and conventional deterrence capabilities of
            NATO are of critical importance to the security of the United
            States and of the NATO alliance, and must continue to adapt to
            the changed security environment in Europe;

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1664]]

                (2) the ability of the United States to forward-deploy dual-
            capable aircraft and nuclear weapons, and of select members of
            NATO to participate in the nuclear deterrence mission of NATO by
            hosting forward-deployed nuclear weapons of the United States or
            operating dual-capable aircraft, is central to the credibility
            of the nuclear deterrence and defense posture of NATO;
                (3) the strategic forces of the United States, the
            independent nuclear forces of the United Kingdom and the French
            Republic, and the dual-capable aircraft operated by the United
            States and other members of NATO constitute foundational
            elements of the nuclear deterrence and defense posture of NATO;
                (4) NATO should modernize its nuclear-related infrastructure
            to ensure the highest-level of safety and security;
                (5) effective deterrence requires NATO to conduct nuclear
            planning and exercises aligned with 21st century requirements
            and modernize nuclear-related capabilities and infrastructure,
            including dual-capable aircraft, command and control networks,
            and facilities; and
                (6) to ensure the continued credibility of the deterrence
            and defense posture of NATO, the planned completion of F-35A
            aircraft development and testing, as well as the delivery of
            such aircraft to members of NATO, must not be delayed.

        (c) INF Treaty Defined.--In this section, the term ``INF Treaty''
    means the Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union of
    Soviet Socialist Republics on the Elimination of Their Intermediate-

    Subtitle E--Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty Preservation
                                   Act of 2017

    SEC. 1241. <<NOTE: 22 USC 2551 note.>>  SHORT TITLE.

        This subtitle may be cited as the ``Intermediate-Range Nuclear
    Forces (INF) Treaty Preservation Act of 2017''.
    SEC. 1242. FINDINGS.

        Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The 2014, 2015, and 2016 Department of State reports
            entitled, ``Adherence to and Compliance with Arms Control,
            Nonproliferation, and Disarmament Agreements and Commitments'',
            all stated that the United States has determined that ``the
            Russian Federation is in violation of its obligations under the
            INF Treaty not to possess, produce, or flight-test a ground-
            launched cruise missile (GLCM) with a range capability of 500 km
            to 5,500 km, or to possess or produce launchers of such
            missiles''.
                (2) The 2016 report also noted that ``the cruise missile
            developed by Russia meets the INF Treaty definition of a ground-
            launched cruise missile with a range capability of 500 km to
            5,500 km, and as such, all missiles of that type, and all
            launchers of the type used or tested to launch such a missile,
            are prohibited under the provisions of the INF Treaty''.
                (3) Potential consistency and compliance concerns regarding
            the INF Treaty noncompliant GLCM have existed since 2008, were
            not officially raised with the Russian Federation until 2013,
            and were not briefed to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
            (NATO) until January 2014.
                (4) The United States Government is aware of other
            consistency and compliance concerns regarding Russia actions
            vis-a-vis its INF Treaty obligations.

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1672]]

                (5) Since 2013, senior United States officials, including
            the President, the Secretary of State, and the Chairman of the
            Joint Chiefs of Staff, have raised Russian noncompliance with
            the INF Treaty to their counterparts, but no progress has been
            made in bringing the Russian Federation back into compliance
            with the INF Treaty.
                (6) In April 2014, General Breedlove, the Supreme Allied
            Commander Europe, correctly stated, ``A weapon capability that
            violates the INF, that is introduced into the greater European
            land mass, is absolutely a tool that will have to be dealt with
            . . . It can't go unanswered.''.
                (7) The Department of Defense in its September 2013 report,
            Report on Conventional Prompt Global Strike Options if Exempt
            from the Restrictions of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces
            Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union of
            Soviet Socialist Republics, stated that it has multiple
            validated military requirement gaps due to the prohibitions
            imposed on the United States as a result of its compliance with
            the INF Treaty.
                (8) It is not in the national security interests of the
            United States to be unilaterally legally prohibited from
            developing dual-capable ground-launched cruise missiles with
            ranges between 500 and 5,500 kilometers, while Russia makes
            advances in developing and fielding this class of weapon
            systems, and such unilateral limitation cannot be allowed to
            continue indefinitely.
                (9) Admiral Harry Harris, Jr., Commander of the United
            States Pacific Command, testified before the Senate Armed
            Services Committee on April 27, 2017, that ``[W]e're in a multi-
            polar world where we have a lot of countries who are developing
            these weapons, including China, that I worry about. And I worry
            about their DF-21 and DF-26 missile programs, their anti-carrier
            ballistic missile programs, if you will. INF doesn't address
            missiles launched from ships or airplanes, but it focuses on
            those land-based systems. I think there's goodness in the INF
            treaty, anything you can do to limit nuclear weapons writ-large
            is generally good. But the aspects of the INF Treaty that limit
            our ability to counter Chinese and other countries' land-based
            missiles, I think, is problematic.''.
                (10) A material breach of the INF Treaty by the Russian
            Federation affords the United States the right to invoke legal
            countermeasures which include suspension of the treaty in whole
            or in part.
                (11) Article XV of the INF Treaty provides that ``Each Party
            shall, in exercising its national sovereignty, have the right to
            withdraw from this Treaty if it decides that extraordinary
            events related to the subject matter of this Treaty have
            jeopardized its supreme interests.''.

                              THE INF TREATY.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the actions undertaken by the Russian Federation in
            violation of the INF Treaty constitute a material breach of the
            treaty;
                (2) in light of the Russian Federation's material breach of
            the INF Treaty, the United States is legally entitled to

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1673]]

            suspend the operation of the INF Treaty in whole or in part for
            so long as the Russian Federation continues to be in material
            breach; and
                (3) for so long as the Russian Federation remains in
            noncompliance with the INF Treaty, the United States should take
            actions to encourage the Russian Federation return to
            compliance, including by--
                        (A) providing additional funds for the capabilities
                    identified in section 1243(d) of the National Defense
                    Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-
                    92; 129 Stat. 1062); and
                        (B) seeking additional missile defense assets in the
                    European theater to protect United States and NATO
                    forces from ground-launched missile systems of the
                    Russian Federation that are in noncompliance with the
                    INF Treaty.

        (b) Availability of Funds.--Of the funds authorized to be
    appropriated by this Act for fiscal year 2018 for research, development,
    test, and evaluation, as specified in the funding table in division D,
    $58,000,000 shall be made available for the development of--
                (1) active defenses to counter ground-launched missile
            systems with ranges between 500 and 5,500 kilometers;
                (2) counterforce capabilities to prevent attacks from these
            missiles; and
                (3) countervailing strike capabilities to enhance the
            capabilities of the United States identified in section 1243(d)
            of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016
            (Public Law 114-92; 129 Stat. 1062).

        (c) Development of INF Range Ground-launched Missile System.--
                (1) Establishment of a program of record.--The Secretary of
            Defense shall establish a program of record to develop a
            conventional road-mobile ground-launched cruise missile system
            with a range of between 500 to 5,500 kilometers, including
            research and development activities with respect to such cruise
            missile system.
                (2) Report required.--Not later than 120 days after the date
            of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall
            submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the
            cost and schedule for, and feasibility of, modifying United
            States missile systems in existence or planned as of such date
            of enactment for ground launch with a range of between 500 and
            5,500 kilometers as compared with the cost and schedule for, and
            feasibility of, developing a new ground-launched missile using
            new technology with the same range.

                (1) a determination whether the RS-26 ballistic missile is
            covered under the New START Treaty or would be a violation of
            the INF Treaty because Russia has flight-tested such missile to
            ranges covered by the INF Treaty in more than one warhead
            configuration; and
                (2) if the President determines that the RS-26 ballistic

                    Commission that such a system is limited under the New
                    START Treaty central limits; and
                        (B) has agreed to an exhibition of such a system.

        (c) Effect of Determination.--If the President, with the concurrence
    of the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the
    Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Director of National Intelligence,
    determines that the RS-26 ballistic missile is covered under the New
    START Treaty and that the Russian Federation has not taken the steps
    described under subsection (b)(2), the United States Government shall
    consider for purposes of all policies and decisions that the RS-26
    ballistic missile of the Russian Federation is a violation of the INF
    Treaty.

    SEC. 1251. SENSE OF CONGRESS AND INITIATIVE FOR THE INDO-ASIA-
                              PACIFIC REGION.

        (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the security, stability, and prosperity of the Indo-
            Asia-Pacific region are vital to the national interests of the
            United States;
                (2) the United States should maintain a military capability
            in the region that is able to project power, deter acts of
            aggression, and respond, if necessary, to regional threats;
                (3) the defense of the United States and its allies against
            North Korean or any other aggression remains a top priority;
                (4) continuing efforts by the Department of Defense to
            realign forces, commit additional assets, and increase
            investments to the Indo-Asia-Pacific region are necessary to
            maintain a robust United States commitment to the region;
                (5) the Secretary of Defense should--
                        (A) assess the current United States force posture
                    in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region to ensure that the
                    United States maintains an appropriate forward presence
                    in the region;
                        (B) invest in critical munitions, undersea warfare
                    capabilities, amphibious capabilities, resilient space
                    architectures, missile defense, offensive and defensive
                    cyber capabilities, and other capabilities conducive to
                    operating effectively in contested environments; and

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1677]]

                        (C) enhance regional force readiness through joint
                    training and exercises, considering contingencies
                    ranging from grey zone to high-end near-peer conflict;
                (6) the United States commitment to freedom of navigation,
            ensuring free access to sea lanes and overflights to the United
            States naval and air forces, remains a core security interest;
            and
                (7) the United States should continue to engage in the Indo-
            Asia-Pacific region by strengthening alliances and partnerships,
            supporting regional institutions and bodies such as the
            Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), building
            cooperative security arrangements, addressing shared challenges,
            and reinforcing the role of international law, including respect
            for human rights.

        (b) Indo-Asia-Pacific Stability Initiative.--The Secretary of
    Defense may carry out a program of activities to enhance stability in
    the Indo-Asia-Pacific region that shall be known as the ``Indo-Asia-

            infrastructure, logistics, and access in the Indo-Asia-Pacific

            of the United States Armed Forces in that region.
                (4) Activities to enhance the storage and pre-positioning in
            the Indo-Asia-Pacific region of equipment of the United States

                              ASIA-PACIFIC REGION.

        (a) Finding.--Congress recognizes that Democratic People's Republic
    of Korea successful test of an intercontinental ballistic

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1680]]

    missile (ICBM) and nuclear explosive tests constitute a grave and
    imminent threat to United States security and to the security of United
    States allies and partners in the Asia-Pacific region.
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the nuclear and missile program of North Korea is one of
            the most dangerous national security threats facing the United
            States today and the defense of the Republic of Korea and Japan
            must remain a top priority for the administration;
                (2) given the threat posed by North Korea to our allies, the
            United States maintains an unwavering and steadfast commitment
            to the policy of extended deterrence, especially with respect to
            South Korea and Japan;
                (3) the Department of Defense's Nuclear Posture Review that
            is to be completed in 2017 should fully consider--
                        (A) the perspectives of key allies and partners of
                    the United States in the Asia-Pacific region; and
                        (B) actions to reassure South Korea and Japan of the
                    enduring commitment of the United States to provide its
                    full range of defensive capabilities;
                (4) bilateral extended deterrence dialogues and discussions
            with South Korea and Japan are of great value to the United
            States and its allies and partners in the Asia-Pacific region
            and must remain a central component of these relationships;
                (5) the United States must sustain and modernize current
            United States nuclear capabilities to ensure the extended
            deterrence commitments of the United States remain credible and
            executable; and
                (6) the timely development, production, and deployment of
            modern nuclear-capable aircraft are fundamental to ensure that
            the United States remains able to meet extended deterrence
            requirements in the Asia-Pacific region far into the future.

        (c) Plan.--Not later than 30 days after the date of the enactment of
    this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Commander
    of the United States Pacific Command and the Commander of the United
    States Strategic Command, shall submit to the congressional defense
    committees a plan to enhance the extended deterrence and assurance
    capabilities of the United States in the Asia-Pacific region.
        (d) Matters to Be Included.--Such plan shall include consideration
    of actions that will enhance United States security by strengthening
    deterrence of North Korean aggression and providing increased assurance
    to United States allies in the Asia-Pacific region, including the
    following:
                (1) Increased visible presence of key United States military
            assets, such as missile defenses, long-range strike assets, and
            intermediate-range strike assets to the region.
                (2) Increased military cooperation, exercises, and
            integration of defenses with allies in the region.
                (3) Increased foreign military sales to allies in the
            region.
                (4) Planning for, exercising, or deploying dual-capable
            aircraft to the region.
                (5) Any necessary modifications to the United States nuclear
            force posture, including re-deployment of submarine-launched
            nuclear cruise missiles to the region.
                (6) Such other actions the Secretary considers appropriate
            to strengthen extended deterrence and assurance in the region.

    may contain a classified annex.
        (f) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this section may be construed
    to alter the shared goal of the United States, South Korea, and Japan
    for a denuclearized Korean Peninsula.
    SEC. 1255. SENSE OF CONGRESS REAFFIRMING SECURITY COMMITMENTS TO
                              THE GOVERNMENTS OF JAPAN AND SOUTH KOREA
                              AND TRILATERAL COOPERATION BETWEEN THE
                              UNITED STATES, JAPAN, AND SOUTH KOREA.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the United States values its alliances with the
            Governments of Japan and the Republic of Korea, based on shared
            values of democracy, the rule of law, free and open markets, and
            respect for human rights;
                (2) the United States reaffirms its commitment to these
            alliances with Japan and South Korea, which are cornerstones for
            the preservation of peace and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific
            region and throughout the world;
                (3) the United States recognizes the substantial financial
            commitments of Japan and South Korea to the maintenance of
            United States forces in these countries, making them among the
            most significant burden-sharing partners of the United States;
                (4) the United States, South Korea, and Japan are
            indispensable partners in tackling global challenges, including
            combating the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction,
            preventing piracy, assisting the victims of conflict and
            disaster worldwide, safeguarding maritime security, and ensuring
            freedom of navigation, commerce, and overflight in the Indo-
            Asia-Pacific region;
                (5) the United States reaffirms its commitment to Article V
            of the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between the
            United States of America and Japan, which applies to the
            Japanese-administered Senkaku Islands;
                (6) although the United States Government does not take a
            position on sovereignty of the Senkaku Islands, the United
            States acknowledges that the islands are under the
            administration of Japan and opposes any unilateral actions that
            would seek to undermine their administration by Japan, and any
            such unilateral actions of a third party will not affect United
            States' acknowledgement of the administration of Japan over the
            Senkaku Islands;
                (7) the United States supports continued strengthening of
            defense cooperation with Japan in accordance with the 2015 U.S.-
            Japan Defense Guidelines and additional measures to strengthen
            this defense cooperation, including by expanding foreign
            military sales, establishing new cooperative technology
            development programs, increasing military exercises, or other
            actions as appropriate;
                (8) the United States and South Korea share deep concerns
            that the nuclear and ballistic missile programs of North Korea
            and its repeated provocations pose great threats to peace and
            stability on the Korean Peninsula, and the United States
            recognizes that South Korea has made important commitments to
            the bilateral security alliance, including by hosting a Terminal
            High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system;

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1682]]

                (9) the United States and South Korea should continue
            further defense cooperation, by enhancing mutual security based
            on the Mutual Defense Treaty between the United States and the
            Republic of Korea and investing in capabilities critical to the
            combined defense;
                (10) the United States should closely consult and coordinate
            with South Korea on measures to strengthen the alliance and
            defend against provocations committed by the North Korean
            regime;
                (11) the United States welcomes greater security cooperation
            with, and among, Japan and South Korea to promote mutual
            interests and address shared concerns, including the bilateral
            military intelligence-sharing pact between Japan and South
            Korea, signed on November 23, 2016, and the trilateral
            intelligence sharing agreement between the United States, Japan,
            and South Korea, signed on December 29, 2015; and
                (12) recognizing that North Korea poses a threat to each of
            the United States, Japan, and South Korea, and that the security
            of the three countries is intertwined, the United States
            welcomes and encourages deeper trilateral defense coordination
            and cooperation, including through expanded exercises, training,
            and information sharing that strengthens integration.

                (2) an unclassified version of the Nuclear Posture Review is
            made available to the public.
    SEC. 1672. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF INDEPENDENT NUCLEAR
                              DETERRENT OF UNITED KINGDOM.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) nuclear deterrence is foundational to the defense and
            security of the United States and the security of the United
            States is enhanced by a nuclear-armed ally with common values
            and security priorities;
                (2) the United States sees the nuclear deterrent of the
            United Kingdom as central to transatlantic security and welcomes
            the commitment of the United Kingdom to the North Atlantic
            Treaty Organization (NATO) to continue to spend two percent of
            gross domestic product on defense;
                (3) in the face of increasing threats, the presence of
            credible nuclear deterrent forces of the United Kingdom is
            essential to international stability and for NATO;
                (4) the commitment of the United Kingdom to sustaining an
            independent nuclear deterrent, deployed continuously at sea,
            provides a vital second decision-making point within the
            deterrent capability of NATO, creating essential uncertainty in
            the mind of any potential adversary;
                (5) the United States Navy must continue to execute the
            Columbia-class submarine program on time and within budget to
            ensure that the sea-based leg of the nuclear triad of the United
            States is sustained and the program delivers a Common Missile
            Compartment, the Trident II (D5) Strategic Weapon System, and
            associated equipment and production capabilities, to support the
            successful development and deployment of the Dreadnought
            submarines of the United Kingdom;
                (6) the support that the United Kingdom provides to
            deployments of strategic ships and aircraft of the United States
            at specialized facilities enables a vital part of the deterrence
            posture of the United States as well as mutual deterrence of

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1771]]

            adversaries and assurance to the allies and partners of the
            United States; and
                (7) the collaboration of the United Kingdom with the United
            States on the military use of atomic energy ensures a peer in
            the technology and science of nuclear weapons and provides
            independent expert peer review of the nuclear programs of the
            United States, ensuring resilience and cost effectiveness to the
            nuclear defense programs of both nations.

    SEC. 1689. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE STATE OF THE MISSILE DEFENSE
                              OF THE UNITED STATES.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the Secretary of Defense should use the Ballistic
            Missile Defense Review that commenced in 2017 to consider
            accelerating the development of technologies that will increase
            the capacity, capability, and reliability of the ground-based
            midcourse defense element of the ballistic missile defense
            system;
                (2) upon completion of the Ballistic Missile Defense Review,
            the Director of the Missile Defense Agency should, to the extent
            practicable and with sound acquisition practices, accelerate the
            development, testing, and fielding of such capabilities as they
            are prioritized in the Ballistic Missile Defense Review, with
            respect to the redesigned kill vehicle, the multi-object kill
            vehicle, the C3 booster, a space-based sensor layer, boost phase
            sensor and kill technologies, and additional ground-based
            interceptors; and
                (3) in order to achieve these objectives, and to avoid post-
            production and post-deployment problems, it is essential for the
            Department of Defense and the Missile Defense Agency to follow a
            ``fly before you buy'' approach to adequately test and assess
            the elements of the ballistic missile defense system before
            final production decisions or operational deployment.

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1785]]

                (1) at a minimum, the Missile Defense Agency should continue
            to flight test the ground-based midcourse defense element at
            least once each fiscal year;
                (2) the Department of Defense should allocate increased
            funding to homeland missile defense testing to ensure that the
            defenses of the United States continue to evolve faster than the
            threats against which they are postured to defend, while
            pursuing a sound acquisition practice;
                (3) in order to rapidly innovate, develop, and field new
            technologies, the Director of the Missile Defense Agency should
            continue to focus testing campaigns on delivering increased
            capabilities to the Armed Forces as quickly as possible; and
                (4) the Director should seek to establish a more prudent
            balance between risk mitigation and the more rapid testing pace
            needed to quickly develop and deliver new capabilities to the
            Armed Forces.

    SEC. 1714. REPORT ON UTILIZATION OF SMALL BUSINESS CONCERNS FOR
                              FEDERAL CONTRACTS.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
                (1) since the passage of the Budget Control Act of 2011
            (Public Law 112-25; 125 Stat. 240), many Federal agencies have
            started favoring longer-term Federal contracts, including
            multiple award contracts, over direct individual awards;
                (2) these multiple award contracts have grown to more than
            one-fifth of Federal contract spending, with the fastest growing
            multiple award contracts each surpassing $100,000,000 in
            obligations for the first time between 2013 and 2014;
                (3) in fiscal year 2017, 17 of the 20 largest Federal
            contract opportunities are multiple award contracts;
                (4) while Federal agencies may choose to use any or all of
            the various socioeconomic groups on a multiple award contract,
            the Small Business Administration only examines the performance
            of socioeconomic groups through the small business procurement
            scorecard and does not examine potential opportunities for those
            groups; and
                (5) Congress and the Department of Justice have been clear
            that no individual socioeconomic group shall be given preference
            over another.

        (b) Definitions.--In this section--
                (1) the term ``Administrator'' means the Administrator of
            the Small Business Administration;
                (2) the term ``covered small business concerns'' means--
                        (A) qualified HUBZone small business concerns;
                        (B) small business concerns owned and controlled by
                    service-disabled veterans;
                        (C) small business concerns owned and controlled by
                    women; and
                        (D) small business concerns owned and controlled by
                    socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, as
                    defined under section 8(d)(3)(C) of the Small Business
                    Act (15 U.S.C. 637(d)(3)(C)); and

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1814]]

                (3) the terms ``qualified HUBZone small business concern'',
            ``small business concern'', ``small business concern owned and
            controlled by service-disabled veterans'', and ``small business
            concern owned and controlled by women'' have the meanings given
            those terms in section 3 of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C.
            632).

        (c) Report.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than 180 days after the date of

                        (A) a determination as to whether small business
                    concerns and each category of covered small business
                    concern are being utilized in a significant portion of
                    the multiple award contracts awarded by the Federal
                    Government, including--
                              (i) whether awards are reserved for concerns
                          in 1 or more of those categories; and
                              (ii) whether concerns in each such category

    SEC. 1802. DEFINITIONS.

        In this title:
                (1) Improper payment.--The term ``improper payment'' has the
            meaning given the term in section 2 of the Improper Payments
            Information Act of 2002 (31 U.S.C. 3321 note).
                (2) Questionable transaction.--The term ``questionable
            transaction'' means a charge card transaction that from initial
            card data appears to be high risk and may therefore be

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1815]]

            improper due to non-compliance with applicable law, regulation
            or policy.
                (3) Strategic sourcing.--The term ``strategic sourcing''
            means analyzing and modifying a Federal agency's spending
            patterns to better leverage its purchasing power, reduce costs,

        (a) Strategy.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
    enactment of this Act, the Director of the Office of Management and
    Budget, in consultation with the Administrator for General Services,
    shall develop a strategy to expand the use of data analytics in managing
    government purchase and travel charge card programs. These analytics may
    employ existing General Services Administration capabilities, and may be
    in conjunction with agencies' capabilities, for the purpose of--
                (1) identifying examples or patterns of questionable
            transactions and developing enhanced tools and methods for
            agency use in--
                        (A) identifying questionable purchase and travel
                    card transactions; and
                        (B) recovering improper payments made with purchase
                    and travel cards;
                (2) identifying potential opportunities for agencies to
            further leverage administrative process streamlining and cost
            reduction from purchase and travel card use, including
            additional agency opportunities for card-based strategic
            sourcing;
                (3) developing a set of purchase and travel card metrics and
            benchmarks for high-risk activities, which shall assist agencies
            in identifying potential emphasis areas for their purchase and
            travel card management and oversight activities, including those
            required by the Government Charge Card Abuse Prevention Act of
            2012 (Public Law 112-194); and
                (4) developing a plan, which may be based on existing
            capabilities, to create a library of analytics tools and data
            sources for use by Federal agencies (including inspectors
            general of those agencies).
    SEC. 1804. GUIDANCE ON IMPROVING INFORMATION SHARING TO CURB

            identify high-risk activities and communicate that information
            to the appropriate management levels within the agencies;
                (2) require that appropriate officials at Federal agencies
            review the reports issued by charge card-issuing banks on
            questionable transaction activity (such as purchase and travel
            card pre-suspension and suspension reports, delinquency reports,
            and exception reports), including transactions that

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1816]]

            occur with high-risk activities, and suspicious timing or
            amounts of cash withdrawals or advances;
                (3) provide for the appropriate sharing of information
            related to potential questionable transactions, fraud schemes,

            purpose of identifying potential strategic sourcing and other
            additional opportunities (such as recurring payments, utility
            payments, and grant payments) for which the charge cards or
            related payment products could be used as a payment method; and
                (3) include other best practices as determined by the
            Administrator and Director.

        Subtitle B--Program Authorizations, Restrictions, and Limitations

    SEC. 3111. NUCLEAR SECURITY ENTERPRISE INFRASTRUCTURE
                              MODERNIZATION INITIATIVE.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) On September 7, 2016, during testimony before the
            Subcommittee on Strategic Forces of the Committee on Armed
            Services of the House of Representatives--
                        (A) the Administrator for Nuclear Security, Frank
                    Klotz, said--
                              (i) ``Our infrastructure is extensive,
                          complex, and, in many critical areas, several
                          decades old. More than half of NNSA's
                          approximately 6,000 real property assets are over
                          40 years old, and nearly 30 percent date back to
                          the Manhattan Project era. Many of the
                          enterprise's critical utility, safety, and support
                          systems are failing at an increasing and
                          unpredictable rate, which poses both programmatic
                          and safety risk.''; and

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1880]]

                              (ii) ``I can think of no greater threat to the
                          nuclear security enterprise than the state of
                          NNSA's infrastructure.'';
                        (B) the President and Chief Executive Officer of
                    Consolidated Nuclear Security, Morgan Smith, said,
                    ``Many key facilities at both [Pantex and Y-12] were
                    constructed in the 1940s and were intended to operate
                    for as little as one decade. Many facilities and their
                    supporting infrastructure have exceeded or far exceeded
                    their expected life, and major systems within the
                    facilities are beginning to fail.''; and
                        (C) the Director of Los Alamos National Laboratory,
                    Dr. Charlie McMillan, said, ``One of the things that
                    keeps me up at night is the realization that essential
                    capabilities are held at risk by the possibility of such
                    failures; in many cases, our enterprise has a single
                    point of failure.''.
                (2) In a letter sent on December 23, 2015, by the Secretary
            of Energy, Ernest Moniz, to the Director of the Office of
            Management and Budget, Shaun Donovan, the Secretary said, ``A
            majority of the National Nuclear Security Administration's
            (NNSA) facilities and systems are well beyond end-of-life....
            Infrastructure problems such as falling ceilings are increasing
            in frequency and severity, unacceptably risking the safety and
            security of both personnel and material at NNSA facilities, as
            well as in some instances, potential offsite risks. The entire
            complex could be placed at risk if there is a single failure
            where a single point would disrupt a critical link in
            infrastructure.''.
                (3) The Nuclear Posture Review published in April 2010
            stated that ``In order to sustain a safe, secure, and effective
            U.S. nuclear stockpile as long as nuclear weapons exist, the
            United States must possess a modern physical infrastructure....
            Today's nuclear complex, however, has fallen into neglect.
            Although substantial science, technology, and engineering
            investments were made over the last decade under the auspices of
            the Stockpile Stewardship Program, the complex still includes
            many oversized and costly-to maintain facilities built during
            the 1940s and 1950s. Some facilities needed for working with
            plutonium and uranium date back to the Manhattan Project.
            Safety, security, and environmental issues associated with these
            aging facilities are mounting, as are the costs of addressing
            them.''.
                (4) In 2009, the bipartisan Congressional Commission on the
            Strategic Posture of the United States established by section
            1062 of the National Defense Authorization for Fiscal Year 2008
            (Public Law 110-181; 122 Stat. 319) stated, with regards to key
            production facilities, that ``existing facilities are genuinely
            decrepit and are maintained in a safe and secure manner only at
            high cost''.
                (5) Previous efforts to address the deferred maintenance and
            repair challenges within the nuclear security enterprise, such
            as the Facilities Infrastructure and Recapitalization Program
            and the recent halt in the growth of backlog metrics, are
            laudable but insufficient for the magnitude of the problem.
                (6) Recent figures provided by the Administrator for Nuclear
            Security estimate the backlog of deferred maintenance

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1881]]

            and repair needs of the nuclear security enterprise to be
            approximately $3,700,000,000.

        (b) <<NOTE: 50 USC 2402 note.>>  Infrastructure Modernization
    Initiative.--
                (1) Establishment.--Not later than 30 days after the date of
            the enactment of this Act, the Administrator for Nuclear
            Security shall establish and carry out a program, to be known as
            the ``Infrastructure Modernization Initiative'', to reduce the
            backlog of deferred maintenance and repair needs of the nuclear
            security enterprise (as defined in section 4002(6) of the Atomic
            Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2501(6))). In carrying out that
            program, the Administrator shall establish and execute
            infrastructure modernization milestones that reduce the deferred
            maintenance and repair needs of the nuclear security enterprise
            by not less than 30 percent by 2025.
                (2) Authorities.--
                        (A) Process.--
                              (i) In general.--The Secretary of Energy shall
                          provide to the Administrator a process that will
                          enhance or streamline the ability of the
                          Administrator to carry out the program under
                          paragraph (1) in an efficient and effective
                          manner, including with respect to--
                                        (I) the demolition or construction
                                    of non-nuclear facilities of the
                                    Administration that have a total
                                    estimated project cost of less than
                                    $100,000,000; and
                                        (II) the decontamination,
                                    decommissioning, and demolition (to be
                                    performed in accordance with applicable
                                    health and safety standards used by the
                                    Defense Environmental Cleanup Program)
                                    of process-contaminated facilities of
                                    the Administration that have a total
                                    estimated project cost of less than
                                    $50,000,000.
                              (ii) Funding.--Clause (i) may be carried out
                          using amounts authorized to be appropriated for
                          fiscal year 2018 or any subsequent fiscal year.
                        (B) Application of certain requirements.--For

                          corresponding facility demolition;
                              (ii) perform demolition of different facility
                          category codes and have that demolition credit
                          count towards the construction of new facilities
                          with a different facility category code; and
                              (iii) have the net reduction in infrastructure
                          footprint for the five fiscal years prior to the
                          date of the enactment of this Act, and the
                          demolition during the five fiscal years following
                          such date of enactment, considered as a factor for
                          the purpose of meeting the intent of such
                          memorandum.

                              (ii) ensure that significant changes in the
                          demonstration project not take effect until
                          revisions, as necessary and applicable, to the
                          plan for the demonstration project are approved by
                          the Office of Personnel Management and published
                          in the Federal Register;
                              (iii) ensure that procedural modifications or
                          clarifications to the plan for the demonstration
                          project be made through local notification

                          assignments; and
                              (ii) the departments and agencies of the
                          Federal Government specified in such paragraph to
                          facilitate such assignments;
                        (B) providing professional and leadership
                    development opportunities during such assignments;
                        (C) using details and other applicable authorities
                    and programs, including the mobility program under
                    subchapter VI of chapter 33 of title 5, United States
                    Code (commonly referred to as the ``Intergovernmental
                    Personnel Act Mobility Program''); and
                        (D) taking such other actions as the Administrator
                    determines appropriate to increase the use of such
                    rotational assignments.

        (c) Red-team Analysis.--
                (1) Analysis.--The Director for Cost Estimating and Program
            Evaluation of the National Nuclear Security Administration shall
            carry out a red-team analysis of the Federal employee staffing
            structure of the Administration with respect to the
            Administrator for Nuclear Security meeting the authorized
            personnel levels under section 3241A of the National Nuclear
            Security Administration Act (50 U.S.C. 2441a).
                (2) Matters included.--The analysis under paragraph (1)
            shall include assessments of--
                        (A) the number of Federal employees within each
                    program of the Administration, and whether such numbers
                    are appropriately balanced with respect to the size,
                    scope, functions, budgets, and risks, of the program;
                    and
                        (B) the number of Senior Executive Service positions
                    (as defined in section 3132(a) of title 5, United States

                    of such number to other comparable departments and
                    agencies of the Federal Government, and whether such
                    number is appropriate.

        (d) Briefings.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than 180 days after the date of
            the enactment of this Act--
                        (A) the Administrator shall provide a briefing to
                    the appropriate congressional committees on the
                    implementation of--

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1890]]

                              (i) section 3248 of the National Nuclear

                              COMPETITION.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) In January 2016, the co-chairs of a congressionally
            mandated study panel from the National Academies of Science
            testified to the following before the Committee on Armed
            Services of the House of Representatives:
                        (A) ``The National Nuclear Security Administration
                    (NNSA) complex must engage in robust design competitions
                    in order to exercise the design and production skills
                    that underpin stockpile stewardship and are necessary to
                    meet evolving threats.''.
                        (B) ``To exercise the full set of design skills
                    necessary for an effective nuclear deterrent, the NNSA
                    should develop and conduct the first in what the
                    committee envisions to be a series of design
                    competitions that integrate the full end-to-end process
                    from novel design conception through engineering,
                    building, and non-nuclear testing of a prototype.''.
                (2) In March 2016 testimony before the Committee on Armed
            Services of the House of Representatives regarding a

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1891]]

            December 2016 Defense Science Board report entitled, ``Seven
            Defense Priorities for the New Administration'', members of that
            Board said the following:
                        (A) ``A key contributor to nuclear deterrence is the
                    continuous, adaptable exercise of the development,
                    design, and production functions for nuclear weapons in
                    both the DOD and DOE.... Yet the DOE laboratories and
                    DOD contractor community have done little integrated
                    design and development work outside of life extension
                    for 25 years, let alone concept development that could
                    serve as a hedge to surprise.''.
                        (B) ``The Defense Science Board believes that the
                    triad's complementary features remain robust tenets for
                    the design of a future force. Replacing our current,
                    aging force is essential, but not sufficient in the more
                    complex nuclear environment we now face to provide the
                    adaptability or flexibility to confidently hold at risk
                    what adversaries value. In particular, if the threat
                    evolves in ways that favorably change the cost/benefit
                    calculus in the view of an adversary's leadership, then
                    we should be in a position to quickly restore a credible
                    deterrence posture.''.
                (3) In a memorandum dated May 9, 2014, then-Secretary of
            Energy Ernie Moniz said the following:
                        (A) ``If nuclear military capabilities are to
                    provide deterrence for the nation they need to be
                    relevant to the emerging global strategic environment.
                    The current stockpile was designed to meet the needs of
                    a bipolar world with roots in the Cold War era. A more
                    complex, chaotic, and dynamic security environment is
                    emerging. In order to uphold the Department's mission to
                    ensure an effective nuclear deterrent.... we must ensure
                    our nuclear capabilities meet the challenges of known
                    and potential geopolitical and technological trends.
                    Therefore we must look ahead, using the expertise of our
                    laboratories, to how the capabilities that may be
                    employed by other nations could impact deterrence over
                    the next several decades.''.
                        (B) ``We must challenge our thinking about our
                    programs of record in order to permit foresighted
                    actions that may reduce, in the coming decades, the
                    chances for surprise and that buttress deterrence.''.

        (b) Design Competition.--
                (1) In general.--In accordance with paragraph (2), the
            Administrator for Nuclear Security, in coordination with the
            Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons Council, shall carry out a new
            and comprehensive design competition for a nuclear warhead that
            could be employed on ballistic missiles of the United States by
            2030. Such competition shall--
                        (A) examine options for warhead design and related
                    delivery system requirements in the 2030s, including--
                              (i) life extension of existing weapons;
                              (ii) new capabilities; and
                              (iii) such other concepts as the Administrator
                          and the Chairman determine necessary to fully
                          exercise and create responsive design capabilities
                          in the enterprise and ensure a robust nuclear
                          deterrent into the 2030s;

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1892]]

                        (B) assess how the capabilities and defenses that
                    may be employed by other countries could impact
                    deterrence in 2030 and beyond and how such threats could
                    be addressed or mitigated in the warhead and related
                    delivery systems;
                        (C) exercise the full set of design skills necessary
                    for an effective nuclear deterrent and responsive
                    enterprise through production of conceptual designs and,
                    as the Administrator determines appropriate, production
                    of non-nuclear prototypes of components or subsystems;
                    and
                        (D) examine and recommend actions for significantly
                    shortening timelines and significantly reducing costs
                    associated with design, development, certification, and
                    production of the warhead, without reducing worker or
                    public health and safety.
                (2) Timing.--The Administrator shall--
                        (A) during fiscal year 2018, develop a plan to carry
                    out paragraph (1); and
                        (B) during fiscal year 2019, implement such plan.

        (c) Briefing.--Not later than March 1, 2018, the Administrator, in
    coordination with the Chairman, shall provide a briefing to the
    congressional defense committees on the plan of the Administrator to
    carry out the warhead design competition under subsection (b). Such
    briefing shall include an assessment of the costs, benefits, risks, and
    opportunities of such plan, particularly impacts to ongoing life
    extension programs and infrastructure projects.

    SEC. 3136. PLAN FOR VERIFICATION, DETECTION, AND MONITORING OF
                              NUCLEAR WEAPONS AND FISSILE MATERIAL.

        (a) Findings and Sense of Congress.--
                (1) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                        (A) A January 2014 Defense Science Board report
                    found that ``The nuclear future will not be a linear
                    extrapolation of the past... [and] [t]he technologies
                    and processes designed for current treaty verification
                    and inspections are inadequate to future monitoring
                    realities.''.
                        (B) Section 3133 of the Carl Levin and Howard P.
                    ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for
                    Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291; 127 Stat. 3896)
                    required an interagency plan for monitoring of nuclear
                    weapons and fissile material, and section 3132 of the
                    National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017
                    (Public Law 114-328; 130 Stat. 2768) required an update
                    of such plan. In both instances, the reports submitted
                    failed to answer the congressional requirements, and
                    instead provided only a brief summary of the National
                    Security Council structure and processes.
                (2) Sense of congress.--It is the sense of Congress that
            verification, detection, and monitoring of nuclear weapons and
            fissile material should be a priority for national security, and
            that the reports submitted to date do not reflect this priority,
            or the current and planned initiatives related to nuclear
            verification and detection.

        (b) Plan.--The President, in consultation with the Secretary of
    State, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Energy, the Secretary
    of Homeland Security, and the Director of National Intelligence, shall
    develop a plan for verification and monitoring relating to the potential
    proliferation of nuclear weapons, components of such weapons, and
    fissile material.
        (c) Elements.--The plan developed under subsection (b) shall include
    the following:
                (1) A plan and road map for verification, detection, and

            development, testing, and evaluation, including--
                        (A) identifying requirements for such verification,
                    detection, and monitoring;
                        (B) costs and funding requirements over 10 years for
                    such verification, detection, and monitoring; and
                        (C) identifying and integrating roles,
                    responsibilities, and planning for such verification,
                    detection, and monitoring.
                (2) A detailed international engagement plan for building
            cooperation and transparency, including bilateral and
            multilateral efforts, to improve inspections, detection, and
            monitoring.
                (3) A detailed description of--

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1900]]

                        (A) current and planned research and development
                    efforts to improve monitoring, detection, and in-field
                    inspection and analysis capabilities, including
                    persistent surveillance, remote monitoring, and rapid
                    analysis of large data sets, including open-source data;
                    and
                        (B) measures to coordinate technical and operational
                    requirements early in the process.
                (4) Engagement of relevant departments and agencies of the
            Federal Government and the military departments (including the
            Open Source Center and the United States Atomic Energy Detection
            System), national laboratories, industry, and academia.

                    enriched uranium targets;
                (2) work with global molybdenum suppliers and regulators to
            reduce the proliferation hazard from reprocessing waste from
            medical isotope production containing United States-origin
            highly enriched uranium; and
                (3) ensure an adequate supply of molybdenum-99 and
            technetium-99 at all times, and both assess and mitigate any
            risks

    [[Page 131 STAT. 1907]]

            to such supply during a transition to production without the use
            of highly enriched uranium.

        (b) Submission.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than April 1, 2018, the Secretary

                            Subtitle D--Other Matters

    SEC. 3151. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING COMPENSATION OF INDIVIDUALS
                              RELATING TO URANIUM MINING AND NUCLEAR
                              TESTING.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 2210
            note) was enacted in 1990 to provide monetary compensation to
            individuals who contracted certain cancers and other serious
            diseases following their exposure to radiation released during
            atmospheric nuclear weapons testing during the Cold War or
            following exposure to radiation as a result of employment in the
            uranium industry during the Cold War.
                (2) The Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation
            Program Act of 2000 (42 U.S.C. 7384 et seq.) formally
            acknowledged the dangers to which some employees of sites of the
            Department of Energy and its vendors during the Cold War were
            exposed. That Act also acknowledged that, although establishing
            the link between occupational hazards and specific diseases can
            be difficult, scientific evidence exists to support the
            conclusion that some activities related to Cold War nuclear
            weapons production have resulted in increased risk of illness
            and death to workers. That Act established a formal process for
            the submission of claims for medical expenses and lump sum
            compensation for former employees and contractors and survivors
            of those former employees and contractors.
                (3) As of the date of the enactment of this Act, more than
            145,775 claims have been paid out under the Radiation Exposure
            Compensation Act and the Energy Employees Occupational Illness
            Compensation Program Act of 2000, for a total of at least
            $16,400,000,000 in lump sum compensation and medical expenses.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the United
    States Government should appropriately compensate and recognize the
    employees, contractors, and other individuals described in subsection
    (a).
