SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Justice for Imprisoned Americans 
Overseas Act of 2013'' or the ``Jacob's Law of 2013''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The President is required under section 2001 of the 
        Revised Statutes of the United States (22 U.S.C. 1732) to 
        demand the release of any citizen who has been unjustly 
        deprived of his liberty by or under the authority of any 
        foreign government, and to undertake appropriate means to 
        obtain the release of such citizen.
            (2) In a statement submitted to the Committee on the 
        Judiciary of the Senate on July 27, 2011, former Secretary of 
        State Hillary Clinton stated that ``[t]he State Department has 
        no greater responsibility than the protection of U.S. citizens 
        overseas--particularly when Americans find themselves in the 
        custody of a foreign government, facing an unfamiliar, and at 
        times unfair, legal system.''.
            (3) Some United States citizens in the custody of a foreign 
        government have been and continue to be denied fundamental due 
        process and human rights under both local and international law 
        by foreign government officials.
            (4) Mr. Jacob Ostreicher, who was detained in the notorious 
        Palmasola prison in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia, from June 
        4, 2011, until December 18, 2012, and was subsequently placed 
        under house arrest, is one of the United States citizens who 
        currently is enduring multiple, egregious, and continuous 
        violations of his fundamental due process and human rights 
        under both local and international law.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that foreign 
government officials responsible for violations of fundamental due 
process and human rights of United States citizens in the custody of a 
foreign government, as well as immediate family members of such 
officials, should not have the privilege of traveling to the United 
States while such violations are occurring.

              ABROAD.

    (a) Training for Foreign Service Officers.--Subsection (a) of

    ``(2) The professional development program referred to in paragraph 
(1) shall include the following:
            ``(A) The protocol that members of the Service are to 
        follow to protect the human rights and due process rights of 
        United States citizens who are in the custody of a foreign 
        government and who have notified the Department of State that 
        one or more of such rights is being violated.
            ``(B) Information relating to the international human 
        rights that may be relevant in the case of a United States 
        citizen described in paragraph (1), including the right of an 
        individual charged with a criminal offense to be presumed 
        innocent until proven guilty according to law as stated in the 
        International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
            ``(C) The means by which a member of the Service assigned 
        to a new post in a foreign country will be informed of the 
        legal rights of a United States citizen who is in the custody 
        of the government of such country pursuant to the laws of such 
        country.''.
    (b) Report to Congress.--Not later than 90 days after the date of 
the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of State shall submit to the 
appropriate congressional committees a report that describes the

                    (B) An identification of the fundamental due 
                process or human rights violations that are being

                credible information indicating that the government 
                official concerned is responsible for the violations

        fulfilling any official responsibility to protect, the rights

        transmit a response to the chairperson and ranking member of

rights identified in section 4(d)(1)(B) of a United States citizen 
identified in section 4(d)(1)(A).

    It is the sense of Congress that the website of the lead United

custody of a foreign government should--
            (1) prominently indicate that the fundamental due process 
        or human rights of such citizen in the custody of the 
        government of such country are being violated, and

        dangers of visiting such country.
