6 EVALUATING AFGHAN AND PAKISTANI CONDUCT AND

7 COMMITMENT

8 SEC. 21008. (a) FINDINGS REGARDING PROGRESS IN

9 AFGHANISTAN AND PAKISTAN.—Congress makes the fol10 lowing findings: 

11 (1) Over 40,000 American military personnel 

12 are currently serving in Afghanistan, with the brav13 ery and professionalism consistent with the finest 

14 traditions of the United States Armed Forces, and 

15 are deserving of the strong support of all Americans. 

16 (2) Many American service personnel have lost 

17 their lives, and many more have been wounded in 

18 Afghanistan. The American people will always honor 

19 their sacrifice and honor their families. 

20 (3) Afghanistan and Pakistan are experiencing 

21 a deterioration of their internal security resulting 

22 from a growing insurgency fueled by Al Qaeda, the 

23 Taliban and other extremist networks that continue 

24 to operate along the western border of Pakistan, in25 cluding in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas

•HR 2346 RH

1 (FATA), as well as in areas under central govern2 ment authority such as Quetta in Baluchistan and 

3 Muridke in Punjab. 

4 (4) The United States and the international 

5 community have welcomed and supported Pakistan’s 

6 return to civilian rule after almost nine years with 

7 the free and fair elections of February 18, 2008, 

8 and have supported the development of a democratic 

9 government in Afghanistan. 

10 (5) Since 2001, the United States has contrib11 uted more than $33,000,000,000 to Afghanistan and 

12 $12,000,000,000 to Pakistan to strengthen each 

13 country’s governance, economy, education system, 

14 healthcare services, and military. 

15 (6) The governments of Afghanistan and Paki16 stan must expand the writ of the national govern17 ment across all provinces to secure their borders, 

18 protect their population, enforce the rule of law, and 

19 tackle the pervasive problem of corruption in order 

20 to bring security and stability to their people. 

21 (b) REPORT.—Because the stability and security of 

22 the region is tied more to the capacity and conduct of the 

23 Afghan and Pakistani governments and to the resolve of 

24 both societies than it is to the policies of the United 

25 States, the President shall submit a report to the ConVerDate Nov 24 2008 22:13 May 12, 2009 Jkt 079200 PO 00000 Frm 00067 Fmt 6652 Sfmt 6201 E:\BILLS\H2346.RH H2346

6 President’s policy announced on March 27, 2009. The 

7 President, on the basis of information gathered and co8 ordinated by the National Security Council, shall advise

15 purpose across ethnic, tribal, religious and party af16 filiations to confront the political and security chal17 lenges facing the region. 

18 (2) Level of government corruption and actions 

19 taken to eliminate it. 

20 (3) Performance of the respective security 

21 forces in developing a counterinsurgency capability,
