SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``True Cost of War Act of 2013''.

SEC. 2. REPORT ON LONG-TERM COSTS OF OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM AND 
              OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The United States has been engaged in military 
        operations in Afghanistan since October 2001 as Operation 
        Enduring Freedom and in military operations in Iraq since March 
        2003 as Operation Iraqi Freedom and its successor contingency 
        operation, Operation New Dawn.
            (2) According to the Congressional Research Service, 
        through fiscal year 2013, Congress has appropriated 
        $1,500,000,000,000 for the Department of Defense, for the State 
        Department, and for medical costs paid by the Department of 
        Veterans Affairs. This amount includes $821,000,000,000 related 
        to operations in Iraq and $645,000,000,000 related to 
        operations in Afghanistan.
            (3) Over 90 percent of the funds appropriated for the 
        Department of Defense for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan 
        have been provided as supplemental or additional appropriations 
        and designated as an emergency funding requirement.
            (4) The Congressional Budget Office and the Congressional 
        Research Service have stated that future costs for operations 
        in Iraq and Afghanistan are difficult to estimate because the 
        Department of Defense provides little information on costs 
        incurred to date and actual expenditure for operations in Iraq 
        and Afghanistan (because war and baseline funds are mixed in 
        the same accounts) and because of a lack of information from 
        the Department of Defense on many of the key factors that 
        determine costs, including personnel levels and the pace of 
        operations.
            (5) Over 2,400,000 members of the United States Armed 
        Forces have served in Afghanistan and Iraq since the beginning 
        of the conflicts.
            (6) Over 4,400 members of the Armed Forces and Department 
        of Defense civilian personnel have been killed in Operation 
        Iraqi Freedom, and over 2,100 members of the Armed Forces and 
        Department of Defense civilian personnel have been killed in 
        Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.
            (7) Over 1,715 members of the Armed Forces have suffered 
        amputations as a result of wounds or other injuries incurred in 
        Afghanistan or Iraq.
            (8) More than 250,000 veterans of military service in Iraq 
        and Afghanistan have been treated for mental health conditions, 
        more than 100,000 of these veterans have been diagnosed with 
        post-traumatic stress disorder, and approximately 253,330 of 
        these veterans have a confirmed traumatic brain injury 
        diagnosis.
            (9) Approximately 54 percent of veterans of military 
        service in Iraq and Afghanistan have sought treatment at a 
        Department of Veterans Affairs hospital or medical clinic.
            (10) The Independent Review Group on Rehabilitative Care 
        and Administrative Processes at Walter Reed Army Medical Center 
        and National Naval Medical Center identified traumatic brain 
        injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, increased survival of 
        severe burns, and traumatic amputations as the four signature 
        wounds of the current conflicts, and the Independent Review 
        Group report states that the recovery process ``can take months 
        or years and must accommodate recurring or delayed 
        manifestations of symptoms, extended rehabilitation and all the 
        life complications that emerge over time from such trauma''.
    (b) Report Requirement.--Not later than 90 days after the date of 
the enactment of this Act, the President, with contributions from the 
Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of State, and the Secretary of 
Veterans Affairs, shall submit to Congress a report containing an 
estimate of previous costs of Operation New Dawn (the successor 
contingency operation to Operation Iraqi Freedom) and the long-term 
costs of Operation Enduring Freedom for a scenario, determined by the 
President and based on current contingency operation and withdrawal 
plans, that takes into account expected force levels and the expected 
length of time that members of the Armed Forces will be deployed in 
support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
    (c) Estimates To Be Used in Preparation of Report.--In preparing 
the report required by subsection (b), the President shall make 
estimates and projections through at least fiscal year 2023, adjust any 
dollar amounts appropriately for inflation, and take into account and
