SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds the following:
            (1) Supporting human rights is in the national interests of 
        the United States and is consistent with American values and 
        beliefs.
            (2) Defenders of human rights are changing our world in 
        many ways, including protecting freedom and dignity, religious 
        liberty, the rights of women and children, freedom of the 
        press, the rights of workers, the environment, and the human 
        rights of all persons.
            (3) The United States must match its rhetoric on human 
        rights with action and with sufficient resources to provide 
        meaningful support for human rights and for the defenders of 
        human rights.
            (4) Congress passed and the President signed into law the 
        International Arms Sales Code of Conduct Act of 1999 (Public 
        Law 106-113; 113 Stat. 1501A-508), which directed the President 
        to seek negotiations on a binding international agreement to 
        limit, restrict, or prohibit arms transfers to countries that 
        do not observe certain fundamental values of human liberty, 
        peace, and international stability, and provided that such an 
        international agreement should include a prohibition on arms 
        sales to countries that engage in gross violations of 
        internationally recognized human rights.
            (5) The arms export end-use monitoring systems currently in 
        place should be improved and provided with sufficient funds to 
        accomplish their mission.
