13 (1) following the successful joint technology ca14 pability demonstration that the counter-electronics 

15 high power microwave missile project (in this section 

16 referred to as ‘‘CHAMP’’) conducted last year, the 

17 Air Force should examine the results of the dem18 onstration and consider the demonstration as a po19 tential solution during any analysis of alternatives 

20 conducted in 2014; 

21 (2) an analysis of alternatives is an important 

22 step in the long term-term development of a high 

23 power microwave weapon;

10 for an additional measure of protection–beyond mis11 sile defense sites in Alaska and California–for de12 fending the United States against intercontinental 

13 ballistic missile (ICBM) threats emanating from the 

14 Middle East. 

15 (2) General Jacoby, the Commander of the 

16 United States Northern Command, testified before 

17 Congress that ‘‘we should consider that Iran has a 

18 capability within the next few years of flight testing 

19 ICBM capable technologies’’ and that ‘‘the Iranians 

20 are intent on developing an ICBM’’. 

21 (3) General Kehler, the Commander of the 

22 United States Strategic Command, testified before

1 not in the most optimum posture to do that today 

2 * * * it doesn’t provide total defense today’’. 

3 (4) General Jacoby also testified before Con4 gress that ‘‘I would agree that a third site, wherever 

5 the decision is to build a third site, would give me 

6 better weapons access, increased GBI inventory and 

7 allow us the battle space to more optimize our de8 fense against future threats from Iran and North 

9 Korea’’. 

10 (5) Section 227 of the National Defense Au11 thorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Public Law

19 for a long-term research and development program 

20 to begin to achieve our ultimate goal of eliminating 

21 the threat posed by strategic nuclear missiles.

1 istence * * * What if free people could live secure 

2 in the knowledge that their security did not rest 

3 upon the threat of instant United States retaliation 

4 to deter a Soviet attack, that we could intercept and 

5 destroy strategic ballistic missiles before they 

6 reached our own soil or that of our allies?’’. 

7 (3) The Strategic Defense Initiative, also 

8 known as ‘‘Star Wars’’, challenged the nation to ac9 complish the impossible by moving beyond the obvi10 ous possibilities of the day to set the United States 

11 and our allies up for success. 

12 (4) In 1999, the Ballistic Missile Defense Orga13 nization (BMDO), National Missile Defense (NMD) 

14 prototype interceptor successfully demonstrated ‘‘hit15 to-kill’’ technology intercepting a modified Minute16 man intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM). 

17 (5) Congress passed the National Missile De18 fense Act of 1999 (Public Law 106–38) (signed by 

19 President Clinton), which stated, ‘‘It is the policy of 

20 the United States to deploy, as soon as is techno21 logically possible, an effective National Missile De22 fense system capable of defending the territory of 

23 the United States against limited ballistic missile at24 tack (whether accidental, unauthorized, or delib25 erate)’’.

1 (6) On December 13, 2001, President George 

2 W. Bush announced ‘‘I have concluded the ABM 

3 treaty hinders our government’s ability to develop 

4 ways to protect our people from future terrorist or 

5 rogue state missile attacks’’. 

6 (7) Russian President Vladimir Putin said the 

7 move was ‘‘not a threat to the security of the Rus8 sian Federation’’. 

9 (8) Since 2001, the United States has deployed 

10 considerable Missile Defense capability: 30 ground11 based interceptors defending the continental U.S. 

12 today; 32 Aegis BMD ships; 113 SM–3 IA intercep13 tors; 25 SM–3 IB interceptors; 3 THAAD batteries 

14 and 89 interceptors; and 8 AN/TPY–2 forward15 based sensors. 

16 (9) The United States has partnerships with 22 

17 nations, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization 

18 (NATO), for missile defense cooperation. Likewise, 

19 India and South Korea are developing missile de20 fenses and the Russian Federation and People’s Re21 public of China are also developing and improving 

22 missile defenses. 

23 (10) Since 2001 when they began development, 

24 United States missile defenses have had a test 

25 record of 58 of 73 hit-to-kill intercept attempts and

4 (GMD), Terminal High Altitude Area Defense 

5 (THAAD), and PATRIOT Advanced Capability–3. 

6 (11) In July of 2004, the United States missile 

7 defense system was declared operational with limited 

8 capability. Since that time, it has offered defense 

9 against limited threats to the continental United 

10 States. 

11 (12) The United States has cooperatively devel12 oped with our Israeli allies a number of missile de13 fense systems including Arrow, Arrow 3 and David’s 

14 Sling, systems which will protector our Israeli allies 

15 and contribute technology and expertise to United 

16 States systems. 

17 (13) The United States in support of NATO

6 SEC. 242. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NEGOTIATIONS AFFECT7 ING THE MISSILE DEFENSES OF THE UNITED 

8 STATES. 

9 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

10 (1) On April 15, 2013, the National Security 

11 Advisor to the President, Tom Donilon, conveyed a 

12 personal letter from President Obama to the Presi13 dent of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin. 

14 (2) Press reports indicate that in this letter the 

15 President proposed, ‘‘developing a legally-binding 

16 agreement on transparency, which would include ex17 change of information to confirm that our programs 

18 do not pose a threat to each other’s deterrence 

19 forces,’’ through ‘‘a so-called executive agreement, 

20 for which [the President] does not need to seek the 

21 consent of Congress.’’. 

22 (3) The Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia, 

23 Sergei Ryabkov, stated in response to the letter that, 

24 ‘‘the proposals of the U.S. side on the issue are 

25 quite concrete and are related in a certain way to 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
88 

HR 1960 PCS

1 the discussions our countries had at various levels in 

2 the past years. And it cannot be said from this point 

3 of view that the offers are decorative and not seri4 ous. No, I want to emphasize that we are commit5 ting to the seriousness of these proposals but we 

6 note their insufficiency.’’. 

7 (4) Press reports indicate that the Secretary of 

8 the Russian Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev, 

9 conveyed a response to the letter from President 

10 Putin. 

11 (5) President Obama’s proposed deal with Rus12 sian President Putin has been kept secret from Con13 gress and the American people. 

14 (6) The Administration has systematically de15 nied Congress information about past offers of 

16 United States missile defense concessions to Russia, 

17 including written requests from Members of the 

18 House of Representatives. 

19 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con20 gress that— 

21 (1) the President should promptly convey to 

22 Congress the details of any proposed deals with the 

23 Russian Federation concerning the missile defenses 

24 or nuclear arms of the United States; and 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
89 

HR 1960 PCS

1 (2) the missile defenses of the United States 

2 are central to the defense of the homeland from bal3 listic missile threats, particularly if nuclear deter4 rence fails, thus such defenses are not something 

5 that the President should continue to trade away for 

6 the prospects of nuclear arms reductions with Rus7 sia, the People’s Republic of China, or any other for8 eign country.

3 SEC. 555. TRANSITION OF MEMBERS OF THE ARMED 

4 FORCES AND THEIR FAMILIES FROM MILI5 TARY TO CIVILIAN LIFE. 

6 (a) FINDINGS.—The Congress finds the following: 

7 (1) Members of the Armed Forces and their 

8 families make great sacrifices on behalf of the 

9 United States, and, when their active duty service is 

10 successfully concluded, members deserve the oppor11 tunity to also make a successful transition to the ci12 vilian labor force. 

13 (2) When transitioning from active duty in the 

14 Armed Forces to civilian employment, members 

15 often face barriers that make it difficult to fully uti16 lize the skills and training they gained during their 

17 military service. 

18 (3) Members and veterans are too often re19 quired to repeat education or training in order to re20 ceive industry certifications and State occupational 

21 licenses, even though their military training and ex22 perience often overlaps with the certification or li23 censing requirements. 

24 (4) When members are transferred from mili25 tary assignment to military assignment, their 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
271 

HR 1960 PCS

1 spouses often face barriers to transferring their cre2 dentials and to securing employment in their new lo3 cation. 

4 (5) More than one million members will make 

5 the transition to civilian life in the coming years. 

6 (6) The Department of Defense established the 

7 Military Credentialing and Licensing Task Force in 

8 2012. 

9 (7) The Joining Forces program, a national ini10 tiative to mobilize all sectors of society to give mem11 bers of the Armed Forces and their families the op12 portunities and support they have earned, will make 

13 it easier for members and their families to transfer 

14 skills learned while the member was serving in the 

15 Armed Forces to civilian employment. 

16 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con17 gress that— 

18 (1) the Federal Government and State govern19 ments should make the transition of a member of 

20 the Armed Forces and the member’s spouse from 

21 military to civilian life as seamless as possible by 

22 creating opportunities for the member and spouse to 

23 earn, while the member is in the Armed Forces, ci24 vilian occupational credentials and licenses, with an 

25 emphasis on well-paying industries and occupations

1 that have a high demand for skilled workers, includ2 ing: manufacturing, information technology, trans3 portation and logistics, health care, and emergency 

4 medical services; 

5 (2) the Federal Government should assist State 

6 governments in translating military training and ex7 perience into credit towards professional licensure; 

8 and 

9 (3) State governments should streamline ap10 proaches for assessing the equivalency of military 

11 training and experience, and accelerate occupational 

12 licensing processes for members, veterans, and their 

13 spouses.

7 SEC. 1055. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON COMPLIANCE WITH NU8 CLEAR ARMS CONTROL AGREEMENTS. 

9 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

10 (1) President Obama stated in Prague in April 

11 2009 that ‘‘Rules must be binding. Violations must 

12 be punished. Words must mean something.’’. 

13 (2) President Obama’s Nuclear Posture Review 

14 of 2010 stated, ‘‘it is not enough to detect non-com15 pliance; violators must know that they will face con16 sequences when they are caught.’’. 

17 (3) The July 2010 Verifiability Assessment re18 leased by the Department of State on the New 

19 START Treaty stated, ‘‘The costs and risks of Rus20 sian cheating or breakout, on the other hand, would 

21 likely be very significant. In addition to the financial 

22 and international political costs of such an action, 

23 any Russian leader considering cheating or breakout

15 ‘‘seek on an urgent basis a meeting with the Russian 

16 Federation at the highest diplomatic level with the 

17 objective of bringing the Russian Federation into 

18 full compliance with its obligations under the New 

19 START Treaty’’. 

20 (5) The Obama Administration demonstrated 

21 that violations of treaty obligations by other parties 

22 require corresponding action by the United States 

23 when, on November 22, 2011, the Department of 

24 State announced that the United States would 

25 ‘‘cease carrying out certain obligations under the

537 

HR 1960 PCS

1 Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) Trea2 ty with regard to Russia. This announcement in the 

3 CFE Treaty’s implementation group comes after the 

4 United States and NATO Allies have tried over the 

5 past 4 years to find a diplomatic solution following 

6 Russia’s decision in 2007 to cease implementation 

7 with respect to all other 29 CFE States. Since then, 

8 Russia has refused to accept inspections and ceased 

9 to provide information to other CFE Treaty parties 

10 on its military forces as required by the Treaty.’’. 

11 (6) On October 17, 2012, the Chairman of the 

12 Committee on Armed Services of the House of Rep13 resentatives and the Chairman of the Permanent Se14 lect Committee on Intelligence of the House of Rep15 resentatives wrote a classified letter to the President 

16 stating their concerns about a major arms control 

17 violation by the Russian Federation. 

18 (7) The Chairmen followed up their classified 

19 letter with unclassified letters on February 14 and 

20 April 12, 2013—in their latest letter, the Chairmen 

21 stated that they expect the Administration to ‘‘di22 rectly confront the Russian violations and cir23 cumventions of this and other treaties. . .[we] fur24 ther ask, again, for your engagement in correcting 

25 this behavior. We also seek your commitment not to

4 your policy as you articulated it in Prague four 

5 years ago this month, ‘rules must be binding, Viola6 tions must be punished. Words must mean some7 thing.’ ’’. 

8 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con9 gress that the President should consider not seeking to 

10 further limit or reduce the nuclear forces of the United

12 that remains in active noncompliance with existing nuclear 

13 arms obligations, such as the Russian Federation.

16 of the Armed Forces or people of the United States 

17 should be condemned;

6 SEC. 1096. SENSE OF CONGRESS TO MAINTAIN A STRONG 

7 NATIONAL GUARD AND MILITARY RESERVE 

8 FORCE. 

9 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

10 (1) The first volunteer militia unit in America 

11 was formed in 1636 in Massachusetts Bay, followed 

12 by other units in the colonies of Virginia and Con13 necticut. the American founding fathers wrote article 

14 I, section 8, of the United States Constitution to 

15 keep the militia model, authorizing a standing mili16 tary force that could organize, train, and equip mili17 tia volunteers when needed. 

18 (2) In World War I, nearly all National 

19 Guardsmen were mobilized into Federal service, and 

20 while they represented only 15 percent of the total 

21 United States Army, they comprised 40 percent of 

22 the American divisions sent to France and sustained 

23 43 percent of the casualties in combat. In World

1 visions and 29 observation squadrons with aircraft 

2 assigned to the United States Army Air Forces. 

3 (3) On September 11, 2001, the first fighter 

4 jets over New York City and Washington, DC, were 

5 Air National Guard F–15 and F–16 aircraft from 

6 Massachusetts and North Dakota, with over 400 

7 more Air National Guard fighter aircraft on alert by 

8 that afternoon. Over 600,000 Air and Army Na9 tional Guard soldiers and airmen have deployed in 

10 the many campaigns since 9/11. 

11 (4) Air and Army National Guard soldiers and 

12 airmen have been involved in countless domestic re13 sponse missions, including missions in response to 

14 hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and forest fires includ15 ing the more recent events of Superstorm Sandy and 

16 the tornados in Oklahoma. 

17 (5) The volunteer National Guard and Reserve 

18 have time and again demonstrated their readiness to 

19 meet operational requirements through cost-effective 

20 means. 

21 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con22 gress that— 

23 (1) the Secretary of Defense should make every 

24 effort to ensure the Military Reserve and National 

25 Guard forces are sustained by a fully manned and

HR 1960 PCS

1 fully funded force and that the United States fulfill 

2 its longstanding commitment to unyielding readiness 

3 in terms of defense; 

4 (2) the Secretary of Defense should act with 

5 the knowledge that the National Guard and Reserve 

6 are critical components to the Armed Forces, par7 ticularly as means of preserving combat power dur8 ing a time of budget austerity; and

11 growth of these components as circumstances war12 rant.

3 SEC. 1099A. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING PRESERVA4 TION OF SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS OF 

5 ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY PERSONNEL STA6 TIONED OR RESIDING IN THE DISTRICT OF 

7 COLUMBIA. 

8 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

9 (1) The Second Amendment to the United 

10 States Constitution provides that the right of the 

11 people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. 

12 (2) Approximately 40,000 servicemen and 

13 women across all branches of the Armed Forces ei14 ther live in or are stationed on active duty within the 

15 Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. Unless these 

16 individuals are granted a waiver as serving in a law 

17 enforcement role, they are subject to the District of 

18 Columbia’s onerous and highly restrictive laws on 

19 the possession of firearms. 

20 (3) Military personnel, despite being extensively 

21 trained in the proper and safe use of firearms, are 

22 therefore deprived by the laws of the District of Co23 lumbia of handguns, rifles, and shotguns that are 

24 commonly kept by law-abiding persons throughout

1 fense of their persons, homes, businesses, and fami2 lies. 

3 (4) The District of Columbia has one of the 

4 highest per capita murder rates in the Nation, which 

5 may be attributed in part to previous local laws pro6 hibiting possession of firearms by law-abiding per7 sons who would have otherwise been able to defend 

8 themselves and their loved ones in their own homes 

9 and businesses. 

10 (5) The Gun Control Act of 1968 (as amended 

11 by the Firearms Owners’ Protection Act) and the 

12 Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act provide 

13 comprehensive Federal regulations applicable in the 

14 District of Columbia as elsewhere. In addition, exist15 ing District of Columbia criminal laws punish pos16 session and illegal use of firearms by violent crimi17 nals and felons. Consequently, there is no need for 

18 local laws that only affect and disarm law-abiding 

19 citizens. 

20 (6) On June 26, 2008, the Supreme Court of 

21 the United States in the case of District of Columbia 

22 v. Heller held that the Second Amendment protects 

23 an individual’s right to possess a firearm for tradi24 tionally lawful purposes, and thus ruled that the

1 ments that rifles and shotguns in the home be kept 

2 unloaded and disassembled or outfitted with a trig3 ger lock to be unconstitutional. 

4 (7) On July 16, 2008, the District of Columbia 

5 enacted the Firearms Control Emergency Amend6 ment Act of 2008 (D.C. Act 17–422; 55 DCR 

7 8237), which places onerous restrictions on the abil8 ity of law-abiding citizens from possessing firearms, 

9 thus violating the spirit by which the Supreme Court 

10 of the United States ruled in District of Columbia v. 

11 Heller. 

12 (8) On February 26, 2009, the United States 

13 Senate adopted an amendment on a bipartisan vote 

14 of 62–36 by Senator John Ensign to S. 160, the 

15 District of Columbia House Voting Rights Act of 

16 2009, which would fully restore Second Amendment 

17 rights to the citizens of the District of Columbia. 

18 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con19 gress that active duty military personnel who are stationed 

20 or residing in the District of Columbia should be permitted 

21 to exercise fully their rights under the Second Amendment 

22 to the Constitution of the United States and therefore 

23 should be exempt from the District of Columbia’s restric24 tions on the possession of firearms.

9 SEC. 1220. SENSE OF CONGRESS. 

10 (a) PURPOSE.—Expressing the Sense of the House 

11 or Representatives that the Special Immigration Visa pro12 grams authorized in the National Defense Authorization 

13 Act for Fiscal Year 2008 and the Afghan Allies Protection 

14 Act of 2009 are critical to the United States national secu15 rity, and that these programs must be reformed and ex16 tended in order to meet the Congressional intent with 

17 which they were created. 

18 (b) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

19 (1) Congress created the Special Immigration 

20 Visa program for the purposes of protecting and aid21 ing the many brave Iraqis and Afghans whose lives, 

22 and the lives of their families, were endangered as 

23 a result of their faithful and valuable service to the 

24 United States during Operations Enduring Freedom 

25 and Iraqi Freedom.

HR 1960 PCS

1 (2) The Iraq Special Immigrant Visa program 

2 is set to expire at the end of fiscal year 2013. 

3 (3) The Afghanistan Special Immigrant Visa 

4 program is set to expire at the end of fiscal year 

5 2014. 

6 (4) Despite the pending expiration of the Spe7 cial Immigrant Visa programs, many brave Iraqis, 

8 Afghans, and their families, continue to face ongoing 

9 and serious threats as a result of their employment 

10 by or on behalf of the United States Government. 

11 (5) Between FY08–FY12, only 22 percent of 

12 the available Iraqi SIVs (5,500 visas out of 25,000 

13 visas) have been issued and 12 percent of the avail14 able Afghan SIVs (1,051 visas out of 8,500 visas) 

15 have been issued. 

16 (6) As the Washington Post reported in Octo17 ber 2012, over 5,000 documentarily complete Af18 ghan SIV applications remained in a backlog. 

19 (7) The implementation of the Special Immigra20 tion Visa programs has been protracted and ineffi21 cient. 

22 (8) The application and approval process for 

23 the Special Immigration Visa program is unneces24 sarily opaque and difficult to navigate. 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
651 

HR 1960 PCS

1 (9) Applicants in both Iraq and Afghanistan 

2 often have effusive recommendations from numerous 

3 military personnel, have served the United States 

4 war efforts for many years, and have served val5 iantly, in some instances literally taking a bullet for 

6 a United States service member, and yet are denied 

7 approval for a Special Immigration Visa with little 

8 to no transparency. 

9 (10) Overly narrow provisions contained in the 

10 Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2009 leave many de11 serving Afghans and their families in need of United 

12 States assistance, but unable to access the Special 

13 Immigration Visa program. 

14 (11) The United States has a responsibility to 

15 follow through on its promise to protect those Iraqis 

16 and Afghans who have risked their lives to aid our 

17 troops and protect America’s security. 

18 (12) The extension and reform of the Iraq and 

19 Afghanistan Special Immigrant Visa programs is a 

20 matter of national security. 

21 (13) The extension and reform of the Afghan 

22 Special Immigrant Visa program is essential to the

13 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

14 (1) In response to U.S. Central Command re15 quirements, the United States Navy has maintained, 

16 on average, more than one aircraft carrier in the 

17 Arabian Gulf for more than five years. 

18 (2) In February 2013, the senior leadership of 

19 the Department of Defense elected to reduce the 

20 number of aircraft carriers deployed to the Arabian 

21 Gulf in light of budget constraints and limitation of 

22 the overall carrier force structure to support the two 

23 aircraft carrier requirement. 

24 (3) In reference to the decision to indefinitely 

25 delay the deployment of the USS Harry Truman, 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
666 

HR 1960 PCS

1 CVN 75, and the USS Gettysburg, its cruiser escort, 

2 Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Martin 

3 Dempsey stated, ‘‘We’re trying to stretch our readi4 ness out by keeping this particular carrier in home5 port in our global response force, so if something 

6 happens elsewhere in the world, we can respond to 

7 it. Had we deployed it and ‘consumed’ that readi8 ness, we could have created a situation where down9 stream we wouldn’t have a carrier present in certain 

10 parts of the world at all.’’. 

11 (4) Highlighting the risks of having only one 

12 aircraft carrier in the region and relying on land13 based aircraft, General Dempsey stated, ‘‘When you 

14 have carrier-based aircraft, you have complete au15 tonomy and control over when you use them. When 

16 you use land-based aircraft, you often have to have 

17 host-nation permission to use them.’’. 

18 (5) Addressing the perception of the United 

19 States commitment to the region, General James 

20 Mattis, Commander of U.S. Central Command, tes21 tified in March 2013, ‘‘Perhaps the greatest risk to 

22 U.S. interests in the region is a perceived lack of an 

23 enduring U.S. commitment to collective interests 

24 and the security of our regional partners.’’. He went 

25 on to testify that, ‘‘The drawdown of our forces can 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
667 

HR 1960 PCS

1 be misinterpreted as a lack of attention, a lack of 

2 commitment to the region.’’. 

3 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con4 gress that— 

5 (1) maintaining only one aircraft carrier battle 

6 group in the Arabian Gulf constrains United States’ 

7 options and could put at risk the ability to have di8 versified platforms from which to defend the Ara9 bian Gulf and, if necessary, to conduct military oper10 ations to prevent Iran from threatening the United 

11 States, United States allies, or Iran’s neighbors with 

12 nuclear weapons; 

13 (2) it is in the interests of the United States to 

14 maintain both land-based and sea-based capabilities 

15 in the region to project force; 

16 (3) land-based locations in the region could re17 strict United States military options and critically 

18 impact the operational capability if required to con19 duct a defense of the Arabian Gulf because the 

20 United States has not finalized bilateral security 

21 agreements with key Gulf Cooperation Council coun22 tries; 

23 (4) as a result of these and other critical limita24 tions associated with maintaining one aircraft car25 rier battle group in the Arabian Gulf, United States

7 the Arabian Gulf, the Chief of Naval Operations,

9 carriers to do the job. That’s been pretty clearly 

10 written, and that’s underwritten in our defense stra11 tegic guidance.’’. 

12 (6) the United States should construct and suf13 ficiently sustain a fleet of at least eleven aircraft 

14 carriers and associated battle force ships in order to 

15 meet current and future requirements and to sup16 port at least a two aircraft carrier battle group pres17 ence in the Arabian Gulf, in addition to meeting

11 practicing their faith and subjects them to many 

12 forms of discrimination that followers of other reli13 gions do not face.’’. 

14 (8) The Department of State 2011 Inter15 national Religious Freedom Report stated, ‘‘Accord16 ing to law, Baha’i blood is considered ‘mobah’, 

17 meaning it can be spilled with impunity.’’. 

18 (9) The Department of State 2011 Inter19 national Religious Freedom Report stated that 

20 ‘‘members of religious minorities, with the exception 

21 of Baha’is, can serve in lower ranks of government

4 UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES TO RE5 SPOND TO FUTURE TERRORIST ATTACKS IN 

6 AFRICA AND THE MIDDLE EAST. 

7 (a) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con8 gress that— 

9 (1) the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya on 

10 September 11, 2012, may have never occurred or 

11 could have been prevented had there been an inter12 national stabilizing force following NATO-led oper13 ations in order to help stabilize the country, build 

14 capacity within the security forces, and pursue ter15 rorist groups that threaten the local government as 

16 well as United States interests; 

17 (2) the attack also highlighted the limitations of 

18 the United States military to alert, deploy, and deci19 sively counter a no-notice terrorist attack such as 

20 the one in Benghazi, or another security contin21 gency, due to the limitations stemming from United 

22 States military posture in Africa and the Middle 

23 East and when there is a lack of a layered defense 

24 at United States diplomatic facilities; 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
681 

HR 1960 PCS

1 (3) the United States military is more effec2 tively able to respond to terrorist attacks on United 

3 States facilities outside of the United States if the 

4 responding United States military assets are forward 

5 deployed; 

6 (4) when an intelligence threat assessment de7 termines that a United States facility overseas is 

8 vulnerable to attack, such facility should have robust 

9 force protection measures sufficient to safeguard 

10 personnel and assets until a United States military 

11 response can arrive; 

12 (5) the continually evolving terrorist threat to 

13 United States interests on the Continent of Africa 

14 and the Middle East necessitates that the United 

15 States military maintains a forward deployed pos16 ture in Europe, Middle East, and Africa in order to 

17 be able to respond to terrorist events, or other secu18 rity contingencies, and to effectively evacuate and 

19 recover United States personnel; 

20 (6) the United States military, in conjunction 

21 with the Department of State and the intelligence 

22 community, should continue to evaluate the assump23 tions underpinning the terrorist threat in order to 

24 ensure that it is effectively able to respond globally 

25 to future terrorist attacks;

1 (7) the United States military should regularly 

2 re-evaluate the posture and alert status require3 ments of its crisis response elements in order to be 

4 more responsive to the evolving and global nature of 

5 the terrorist threat, and all United States military 

6 crisis response elements should be fully equipped 

7 with the required supporting capabilities to conduct 

8 their missions; 

9 (8) on April 16, 2013, Chairman of the Joint 

10 Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey, testified 

11 before the House Appropriations Committee that the 

12 military is, ‘‘* * * adapting our force posture to a 

13 new normal of combustible violence in North Africa 

14 and in the Middle East’’; 

15 (9) The President stated in a press conference 

16 on May 16, 2013, ‘‘I have directed the Defense De17 partment to ensure that our military can respond 

18 lightening quick in times of crisis.’’; 

19 (10) the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs should 

20 continue to evaluate the posture of United States 

21 forces to respond to the global terrorist threat, in22 cluding an evaluation of whether United States Afri23 ca Command should have forces and necessary 

24 equipment permanently assigned to the command to 

25 respond more promptly to this ‘‘new normal’’; and

5 the Department of Defense and the Department of 

6 State to identify additional resources for security at 

7 high risk posts, the United States military may be

8 Six-Party Talks.

1 (1) the United States and its allies, South

3 peaceful Korean Peninsula, free of nuclear weapons;

10 constructive manner consistent with established

15 SEC. 1244. STATEMENT OF CONGRESS ON DEFENSE CO16 OPERATION WITH GEORGIA. 

17 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

18 (1) The Republic of Georgia is a highly valued 

19 ally of the United States and has repeatedly dem20 onstrated its commitment to advancing the mutual 

21 interests of both countries, including the deployment 

22 of Georgian forces as part of the NATO-led Inter23 national Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan 

24 and the Multi-National Force in Iraq.

HR 1960 PCS

1 (2) The peaceful transfer of power as the result 

2 of the free and fair parliamentary elections in Geor3 gia in October 2012 represents a major accomplish4 ment toward the Georgian people’s creation of a free 

5 society and full democracy. 

6 (3) However, since the October 2012 par7 liamentary elections the new Georgian Government 

8 has taken a series of measures against former offi9 cials and members of the current political opposition 

10 that appear to be motivated by political consider11 ations. 

12 (4) Over 100 former Georgian Government offi13 cials have been charged with criminal violations 

14 since the October 2012 parliamentary elections. 

15 (5) Similar charges have been filed against 

16 members of the political opposition, including Vano 

17 Merabishvili, the Secretary General of the United 

18 National Movement. 

19 (6) The arrest of the leader of an opposition 

20 party is especially troubling, particularly its chilling 

21 effect on political freedom prior to the presidential 

22 election scheduled for October 2013. 

23 (7) The Georgian Government has taken insuf24 ficient action to prevent further violence against 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
697 

HR 1960 PCS

1 members of the United National Movement and to 

2 punish offenders. 

3 (8) These actions call into question the Geor4 gian Government’s continued progress toward the 

5 creation of a free and democratic society in which 

6 basic freedoms, including freedom for political oppo7 sition, are guaranteed. 

8 (b) STATEMENT OF CONGRESS.—Congress declares 

9 that— 

10 (1) the United States remains committed to as11 sisting the people of Georgia in establishing a free 

12 and democratic society in their country; 

13 (2) the measures taken by the Georgian Gov14 ernment against former officials and political oppo15 nents, apparently in part motivated by political con16 siderations, may have a significant negative impact 

17 on cooperation between the United States and Geor18 gia, including efforts to build a stronger relationship 

19 in political, economic, and security matters, as well 

20 as progress on integrating Georgia into international 

21 organizations; 

22 (3) the United States must be unambiguous 

23 when democratic backsliding occurs in a key ally 

24 after a peaceful and democratic transfer of power 

25 between political parties; and

1 (4) the people of the United States and the 

2 Members of Congress express their deepest condo3 lences to the Georgian people on the tragic loss of 

4 seven soldiers of Georgia in a suicide bombing on 

5 June 6, 2013, and the deaths of three soldiers killed

1 SEC. 1251. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE CONFLICT IN 

2 SYRIA. 

3 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

4 (1) The conflict in Syria began in March 2011. 

5 (2) As of February 2013, the United Nations 

6 High Commissioner for Human Rights estimated 

7 that approximately 70,000 Syrians have been killed 

8 during the conflict. 

9 (3) According to the United Nations High Com10 missioner for Refugees, over 1,200,000 Syrians are 

11 registered refugees or persons of concern including, 

12 over 66,000 in Egypt, over 145,000 in Iraq, over 

13 461,000 in Jordan, over 462,000 in Lebanon, and 

14 over 329,000 in Turkey. 

15 (4) Jabhat al-Nusra, a group located in Syria 

16 and categorized as an affiliate of al-Qaeda by the in17 telligence community, presents a direct threat to the 

18 interests of the United States and could present a 

19 direct threat to the United States. 

20 (5) On August 19, 2011, President Obama 

21 stated: ‘‘The future of Syria must be determined by 

22 its people, but President Bashar al-Assad is stand23 ing in their way. We have consistently said that 

24 President Assad must lead a democratic transition 

25 or get out of the way. He has not led. For the sake 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS

HR 1960 PCS

1 of the Syrian people, the time has come for Presi2 dent Assad to step aside.’’. 

3 (6) The United States is deploying 200 military 

4 personnel from the headquarters of the 1st Armored 

5 Division to Jordan in order to ‘‘improve readiness 

6 and prepare for a number of scenarios’’. 

7 (7) In a letter from Miguel Rodriguez, the As8 sistant to the President for Legislative Affairs, to 

9 Senators McCain and Levin, dated April 25, 2013, 

10 it stated that ‘‘our intelligence community does as11 sess with varying degrees of confidence that the Syr12 ian regime has used chemical weapons on a small 

13 scale in Syria, specifically, the chemical agent sarin 

14 * * * We do believe that any use of chemical weap15 ons in Syria would very likely have originated with 

16 the Assad regime * * * the President has made it 

17 clear that the use of chemical weapons—or the 

18 transfer of chemical weapons to terrorist groups—is 

19 a red line for the United States of America’’. 

20 (8) In a press conference with Israel Prime 

21 Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, President Obama 

22 stated: ‘‘I have made clear that the use of chemical 

23 weapons is a game-changer’’. 

24 (9) In August 2012, during a White House 

25 press conference, President Obama stated: ‘‘We have 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
709 

HR 1960 PCS

1 been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to 

2 other players on the ground, that a redline for us is 

3 we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons 

4 moving around or being utilized.’’. 

5 (10) It is a threat to the vital national security 

6 interest of the United States if terrorist groups, 

7 such as al-Qaeda, obtain chemical or biological mate8 rial or weapons in Syria. 

9 (11) At a Pentagon press conference on May 2, 

10 2013, Secretary Hagel confirmed that the Obama 

11 Administration is re-thinking its opposition to arm12 ing the rebels. 

13 (12) On April 11, 2013, responding to a ques14 tion about the need for a supplemental funding re15 quest for any potential United States military effort 

16 in Syria, Secretary Hagel stated: ‘‘Yes, I think it is 

17 pretty clear that a supplemental would be re18 quired.’’. 

19 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con20 gress that— 

21 (1) President Obama should have a comprehen22 sive policy and should ensure robust contingency 

23 planning to secure United States’ interests in Syria; 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with BILLS
710 

HR 1960 PCS

1 (2) President Obama should fully consider all 

2 courses of action to remove President Bashar al3 Assad from power; 

4 (3) the conflict in Syria threatens the vital na5 tional security interests of Israel and the stability of 

6 Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey, the implications of 

7 which should be sufficiently weighed by the Presi8 dent when considering policy approaches towards the 

9 conflict in Syria; 

10 (4) the sale or transfer of advanced anti-air11 craft weapons systems to Syria poses a grave risk to 

12 Israel and the United States supports Israel’s right 

13 to respond to this grave threat as needed; 

14 (5) the President should fully consider all 

15 courses of action to reinforce his stated ‘‘redline’’ re16 garding the use of weapons of mass destruction by 

17 the Assad regime in Syria, which could threaten the 

18 credibility of the United States with its allies in the 

19 region and embolden the Assad regime; 

20 (6) the United States should continue to con21 duct rigorous planning and operational preparation 

22 to support any efforts to secure the chemical and bi23 ological stockpiles and associated weapons; 

24 (7) the United States should have a policy that 

25 supports the stability of countries on Syria’s border,

8 allies, should ensure that the risks of all courses of 

9 action or inaction regarding Syria are fully explored

16 forces, including an analysis of the risks of the pro17 vision of such aid and training; 

18 (11) should the President decide to employ any 

19 military assets in Syria, the President should pro20 vide a supplemental budget request to Congress; and

10 UNITED STATES FORCES IN EUROPE. 

11 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

12 (1) During the past several years, over 700 ki13 netic terror incidents have occurred in the U.S. Eu14 ropean Command (EUCOM) area of operations. Ris15 ing tensions in the region due to unemployment, fis16 cal insolvency, ethnic strife, hegemonic desires, and 

17 terrorism, pose risks to the security and stability of

21 of Mali, the Arab Republic of Egypt, Libya, and the

3 (3) U.S. Africa Command does not have for4 mally assigned Army or Marine Corps units assigned 

5 to it and it continues to share Air Force and Navy 

6 component commands with EUCOM. Consequently, 

7 United States forces stationed in Europe have been 

8 deployed to support contingencies associated with 

9 the Arab Spring in North Africa. 

10 (4) The Commander of U.S. European Com11 mand is responsible for developing operational plans 

12 for the defense of Israel. Moreover, forces stationed 

13 in Europe would be deployed to defend Israel in the 

14 event of such a contingency.

1 tant venue for recruitment, logistical support, fi2 nancing, and the targeting of the United States and 

3 Western interests. 

4 (7) Congress has lacked sufficient data to com5 pare the strategic benefits and the costs associated 

6 with permanently stationing forces in Europe. The 

7 Government Accountability Office (GAO) has found 

8 that the combatant commands do not completely and 

9 consistently report cost data in their theater posture 

10 plans. In particular, GAO reported in February 

11 2011 that EUCOM lacks comprehensive cost data in 

12 its theater posture plans and therefore decision mak13 ers lack critical information that could be used to 

14 make fully informed posture decisions. Additionally, 

15 in June 2012, GAO found that the Department of 

16 Defense has taken steps to align posture initiatives 

17 with strategy and cost, but continues to lack com18 prehensive and consistent cost estimates of initia19 tives. 

20 (8) The Department of Defense has reported 

21 that the cost of permanently stationing forces in the 

22 United States rather than overseas is often offset by 

23 such factors as increased rotational costs.

HR 1960 PCS

1 (1) Hezbollah has been designated a foreign 

2 terrorist organization by the Department of State 

3 since October 8, 1997. 

4 (2) Hezbollah has been responsible for numer5 ous terrorist attacks and attempted terrorist attacks 

6 around the world, including attacks against United

8 (3) Hezbollah is active in Europe and has been 

9 linked to a July 18, 2012, suicide bombing in Bul10 garia which killed five people.

20 deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a 

21 measure.’’. 

22 (2) In a letter to Thomas Jefferson in 1798, 

23 James Madison wrote: ‘‘The constitution supposes,

1 ingly with studied care vested the question of war to 

2 the Legislature.’’ 

3 (3) In 1973, Congress passed the War Powers 

4 Resolution which states in section 2: ‘‘The constitu5 tional powers of the President as Commander-in6 Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into 

7 hostilities, or into situations where imminent involve8 ment in hostilities is clearly indicated by the cir9 cumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a 

10 declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authoriza11 tion, or (3) national emergency created by attack 

12 upon the United States, its territories or posses13 sions, or its armed forces.’’. 

14 (4) In its April 1, 2011, Memorandum to Presi15 dent Obama, the Office of Legal Counsel concluded: 

16 ‘‘President Obama could rely on his constitutional 

17 power to safeguard the national interest by directing 

18 the anticipated military operations in Libya—which 

19 were limited in their nature, scope, and duration— 

20 without prior congressional authorization.’’. 

21 (5) On June 15, 2011, in a letter to the Speak22 er of the House of Representatives from the Depart23 ment of Defense and Department of State, the De24 partments informed Congress that ‘‘The President is 

25 of the view that the current U.S. military operations

6 provision’.’’. 

7 (6) The precedence set by the Executive Branch 

8 in its assertion that Congress plays no role in mili9 tary actions like those taken in Libya is contrary to 

10 the intent of the Framers and of the Constitution 

11 which vests sole authority to declare war in the Leg12 islative Branch.

23 (2) On March 28, 1949, the United States Gov24 ernment recognized the establishment of the new

1 (3) Since its establishment nearly 65 years ago, 

2 the modern State of Israel has rebuilt a nation, 

3 forged a new and dynamic democratic society, and 

4 created a thriving economic, political, cultural, and 

5 intellectual life despite the heavy costs of war, ter6 rorism, and unjustified diplomatic and economic boy7 cotts against the people of Israel. 

8 (4) The people of Israel have established a vi9 brant, pluralistic, democratic political system, includ10 ing freedom of speech, association, and religion; a 

11 vigorously free press; free, fair, and open elections; 

12 the rule of law; a fully independent judiciary; and 

13 other democratic principles and practices. 

14 (5) Since the 1979 revolution in Iran, the lead15 ers of the Islamic Republic of Iran have repeatedly 

16 made threats against the existence of the State of 

17 Israel and sponsored acts of terrorism and violence 

18 against its citizens. 

19 (6) On October 27, 2005, President of Iran 

20 Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called for a world without 

21 America and Zionism. 

22 (7) In February 2012, Supreme Leader of Iran 

23 Ali Khamenei said of Israel, ‘‘The Zionist regime is 

24 a true cancer tumor on this region that should be 

25 cut off. And it definitely will be cut off.’’.

2 Khamenei said of Israel, ‘‘This bogus and fake Zion3 ist outgrowth will disappear off the landscape of ge4 ography.’’. 

5 (9) In August 2012, President Ahmadinejad 

6 said that ‘‘in the new Middle East * * * there will 

7 be no trace of the American presence and the Zion8 ists’’; 

9 (10) The Department of State has designated 

10 the Islamic Republic of Iran as a state sponsor of 

11 terrorism since 1984 and has characterized the Is12 lamic Republic of Iran as the ‘‘most active state 

13 sponsor of terrorism’’ in the world. 

14 (11) The Government of the Islamic Republic of 

15 Iran has provided weapons, training, funding, and 

16 direction to terrorist groups, including Hamas, 

17 Hizballah, and Shiite militias in Iraq that are re18 sponsible for the murder of hundreds of United 

19 States service members and innocent civilians.

21 Iran has provided weapons, training, and funding to 

22 the regime of Bashar al Assad that has been used 

23 to suppress and murder its own people. 

24 (13) Since at least the late 1980s, the Govern25 ment of the Islamic Republic of Iran has engaged in

1 a sustained and well-documented pattern of illicit 

2 and deceptive activities to acquire a nuclear weapons 

3 capability. 

4 (14) Since September 2005, the Board of Gov5 ernors of the International Atomic Energy Agency 

6 (IAEA) has found the Islamic Republic of Iran to be 

7 in non-compliance with its safeguards agreement 

8 with the IAEA, which Iran is obligated to undertake 

9 as a non-nuclear-weapon State Party to the Treaty 

10 on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, done 

11 at Washington, London, and Moscow July 1, 1968, 

12 and entered into force March 5, 1970 (NPT). 

13 (15) The United Nations Security Council has 

14 adopted multiple resolutions since 2006 demanding 

15 of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran 

16 its full and sustained suspension of all uranium en17 richment-related and reprocessing activities and its 

18 full cooperation with the IAEA on all outstanding 

19 issues related to its nuclear activities, particularly 

20 those concerning the possible military dimensions of 

21 its nuclear program. 

22 (16) The Government of the Islamic Republic of 

23 Iran has refused to comply with United Nations Se24 curity Council resolutions or to fully cooperate with 

25 the IAEA.

1 (17) In November 2011, the IAEA Director 

2 General issued a report that documented ‘‘serious 

3 concerns regarding possible military dimensions to 

4 Iran’s nuclear programme’’, and affirmed that infor5 mation available to the IAEA indicates that ‘‘Iran 

6 has carried out activities relevant to the development 

7 of a nuclear explosive device’’ and that some activi8 ties may be ongoing. 

9 (18) The Government of Iran stands in viola10 tion of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 

11 for denying its citizens basic freedoms, including the 

12 freedoms of expression, religion, peaceful assembly 

13 and movement, and for flagrantly abusing the rights 

14 of minorities and women. 

15 (19) In his State of the Union Address on Jan16 uary 24, 2012, President Barack Obama stated, 

17 ‘‘Let there be no doubt: America is determined to 

18 prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, and I 

19 will take no options off the table to achieve that 

20 goal.’’. 

21 (20) Congress has passed and the President has 

22 signed into law legislation imposing significant eco23 nomic and diplomatic sanctions on Iran to encourage 

24 the Government of Iran to abandon its pursuit of 

25 nuclear weapons and end its support for terrorism.

1 (21) These sanctions, while having significant 

2 effect, have yet to persuade Iran to abandon its il3 licit pursuits and comply with United Nations Secu4 rity Council resolutions. 

5 (22) More stringent enforcement of sanctions 

6 legislation, including elements targeting oil exports 

7 and access to foreign exchange, could still lead the 

8 Government of Iran to change course. 

9 (23) In his State of the Union Address on Feb10 ruary 12, 2013, President Obama reiterated, ‘‘The 

11 leaders of Iran must recognize that now is the time 

12 for a diplomatic solution, because a coalition stands 

13 united in demanding that they meet their obliga14 tions. And we will do what is necessary to prevent 

15 them from getting a nuclear weapon.’’. 

16 (24) On March 4, 2012, President Obama stat17 ed, ‘‘Iran’s leaders should understand that I do not 

18 have a policy of containment; I have a policy to pre19 vent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.’’. 

20 (25) On October 22, 2012, President Obama 

21 said of Iran, ‘‘The clock is ticking * * * And we’re 

22 going to make sure that if they do not meet the de23 mands of the international community, then we are

4 any threat.’’. 

5 (27) On September 21, 2011, President Obama 

6 stated, ‘‘America’s commitment to Israel’s security 

7 is unshakeable. Our friendship with Israel is deep 

8 and enduring.’’. 

9 (28) On March 4, 2012, President Obama stat10 ed, ‘‘And whenever an effort is made to delegitimize 

11 the state of Israel, my administration has opposed 

12 them. So there should not be a shred of doubt by

8 ‘‘the replacement of Department of Energy prescrip9 tive requirements with site specific standards and 

10 operating systems was observed to be a significant 

11 cost reduction driver * * * in several business areas, 

12 this reduction was accomplished by moving toward

19 and should be applied at other NNSA and DOE
