4 287), and the Emergency Supplemental Appropria5 tions Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, and 

6 Tsunami Relief, 2005 (Public Law 109–13) each con7 tain a sense of the Senate provision urging the Presi8 dent to provide in the annual budget requests of the 

9 President for a fiscal year under section 1105(a) of

1 ARMY AND MARINE CORPS.—(a) FINDINGS.—The Senate 

2 makes the following findings: 

3 (1) A long-term increase in the personnel end 

4 strengths for active duty personnel of the Army and 

5 the Marine Corps is necessary in order to carry out 

6 the current missions of the Army and the Marine 

7 Corps and to relieve current strains on Army and 

8 Marine Corps forces. 

9 (2) The cost of the increase in such end strengths 

10 is foreseeable and should be included in the annual

13 31, United States Code, in order to provide a full and 

14 honest accounting to the American people of the per15 sonnel costs of the Army and the Marine Corps. 

16 (3) The inclusion in the annual budget of the 

17 President for each fiscal year of the costs of an in18 crease in such end strengths will permit the Army 

19 and Marine Corps to plan for and accommodate the 

20 additional troops contemplated by such increased end 

21 strengths without reducing other important programs. 

22 (b) SENSE OF SENATE.—It is the sense of the Senate

4 limit any Federal agency from providing 

5 any form of support for a youth organiza6 tion (including the Boy Scouts of America

9 that Federal agency providing less support

12 title 36, United States Code, relating to that

23 (c) SUPPORTFOR SCOUT JAMBOREES.— 

24 (1) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following 

25 findings: 
272 

HR 2863 PP 

1 (A) Section 8 of article I of the Constitution 

2 of the United States commits exclusively to Con3 gress the powers to raise and support armies, 

4 provide and maintain a Navy, and make rules 

5 for the government and regulation of the land 

6 and naval forces. 

7 (B) Under those powers conferred by section 

8 8 of article I of the Constitution of the United 

9 States to provide, support, and maintain the 

10 Armed Forces, it lies within the discretion of 

11 Congress to provide opportunities to train the 

12 Armed Forces. 

13 (C) The primary purpose of the Armed 

14 Forces is to defend our national security and 

15 prepare for combat should the need arise. 

16 (D) One of the most critical elements in de17 fending the Nation and preparing for combat is 

18 training in conditions that simulate the prepa19 ration, logistics, and leadership required for de20 fense and combat. 

21 (E) Support for youth organization events 

22 simulates the preparation, logistics, and leader23 ship required for defending our national security 

24 and preparing for combat. 
273 

HR 2863 PP 

1 (F) For example, Boy Scouts of America’s 

2 National Scout Jamboree is a unique training 

3 event for the Armed Forces, as it requires the 

4 construction, maintenance, and disassembly of a 

5 ‘‘tent city’’ capable of supporting tens of thou6 sands of people for a week or longer. Camporees 

7 at the United States Military Academy for Girl 

8 Scouts and Boy Scouts provide similar training 

9 opportunities on a smaller scale. 

10 (2) SUPPORT.—Section 2554 of title 10, United 

11 States Code, is amended by adding at the end the fol12 lowing: 

13 ‘‘(i)(1) The Secretary of Defense shall provide at least 

14 the same level of support under this section for a national 

15 or world Boy Scout Jamboree as was provided under this 

16 section for the preceding national or world Boy Scout Jam17 boree. 

18 ‘‘(2) The Secretary of Defense may waive paragraph 

19 (1), if the Secretary— 

20 ‘‘(A) determines that providing the support sub21 ject to paragraph (1) would be detrimental to the na22 tional security of the United States; and 

23 ‘‘(B) reports such a determination to the Con24 gress in a timely manner, and before such support is 

25 not provided.’’.

1 (d) EQUAL ACCESS FOR YOUTH ORGANIZATIONS.— 

2 Section 109 of the Housing and Community Development 

3 Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5309) is amended— 

4 (1) in the first sentence of subsection (b) by in5 serting ‘‘or (e)’’ after ‘‘subsection (a)’’; and 

6 (2) by adding at the end the following: 

7 ‘‘(e) EQUAL ACCESS.— 

8 ‘‘(1) DEFINITION.—In this subsection, the term 

9 ‘youth organization’ means any organization de10 scribed under part B of subtitle II of title 36, United 

11 States Code, that is intended to serve individuals 

12 under the age of 21 years. 

13 ‘‘(2) IN GENERAL.—No State or unit of general 

14 local government that has a designated open forum, 

15 limited public forum, or nonpublic forum and that is 

16 a recipient of assistance under this chapter shall deny 

17 equal access or a fair opportunity to meet to, or dis18 criminate against, any youth organization, including 

19 the Boy Scouts of America or any group officially af20 filiated with the Boy Scouts of America, that wishes
