H5796 CONGRESSIONAL RECORD — HOUSE September 11, 2012 

2003, however, the Supreme Court in 

Moseley v. Victoria’s Secret Catalog, 

Inc., considered the question of whether objective proof of actual injury to 

the economic value of a famous mark— 

that is, actual dilution—is required to 

obtain relief under the Federal Trademark Dilution Act. The Court decided 

that evidence of actual dilution was required, not simply a showing of likely 

dilution. 

The Trademark Dilution Revision 

Act of 2006 amended the law in an attempt to reverse the Victoria’s Secret 

decision and to expand the scope of 

State dilution claims banned under the 

Federal statute. During consideration 

of the Trademark Dilution Revision 

Act, however, the provision allowing a 

Federal registration defense to dilution 

claims brought under State law was reorganized in such a way as to result in 

an unintended substantive change in 

the provision. As a result, the Federal 

registration defense is available not 

only against State dilution claims, but 

also against Federal dilution claims. 

The legislative history makes clear 

that Congress did not intend to allow a 

Federal trademark registration to bar 

a Federal dilution claim. H.R. 6215 corrects this error and has broad support 

in the intellectual property community and bipartisan support on the Judiciary Committee. 

I urge my colleagues to support the 

legislation that ensures that the will of 

the Congress, as originally intended, is 

not undermined by an inadvertent 

drafting error. 

Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance 

of my time. 

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

yield back the balance of my time. 

The SPEAKER pro tempore. The 

question is on the motion offered by 

the gentleman from Texas (Mr. SMITH) 

that the House suspend the rules and 

pass the bill, H.R. 6215, as amended. 

The question was taken; and (twothirds being in the affirmative) the 

rules were suspended and the bill, as 

amended, was passed. 

A motion to reconsider was laid on 

the table.

REPORTING EFFICIENCY 

IMPROVEMENT ACT 

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

move to suspend the rules and pass the 

bill (H.R. 6189) to eliminate unnecessary reporting requirements for unfunded programs under the Office of 

Justice Programs, as amended. 

The Clerk read the title of the bill. 

The text of the bill is as follows: 

H.R. 6189 

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of 

Representatives of the United States of America 

in Congress assembled, 

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 

This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Reporting 

Efficiency Improvement Act’’. 

SEC. 2. ELIMINATION OF REPORTS FOR UNFUNDED PROGRAMS UNDER THE OFFICE OF JUSTICE PROGRAMS. 

(a) DNA IDENTIFICATION GRANTS.—Section 2406 of title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 

3796kk–5) is amended— 

(1) by striking ‘‘(a) REPORTS TO ATTORNEY GENERAL.—’’; and 

(2) by striking subsection (b). 

(b) POLICE CORPS PROGRAM.—

U.S.C. 14102) is repealed. 

(2) CONFORMING AMENDMENT.—The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement 

Act of 1994 is amended by striking the item 

relating to section 200113 in the table of contents contained in section 2 of such Act. 

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from 

Texas (Mr. SMITH) and the gentleman 

from Michigan (Mr. CONYERS) each will 

control 20 minutes. 

The Chair recognizes the gentleman 

from Texas. 

GENERAL LEAVE

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days within 

which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous materials on H.R. 6189, as amended, currently under consideration. 

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there 

objection to the request of the gentleman from Texas? 

There was no objection. 

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

yield myself such time as I may consume. 

Mr. Speaker, I join the ranking member, Congressman CONYERS, in cosponsoring this commonsense, bipartisan 

bill, the Reporting Efficiency Improvement Act, and I thank him for introducing this legislation. 

The Government Performance and 

Results Modernization Act of 2010 requires Federal agencies to identify reports that may be outdated or duplicative. Then the executive branch must 

consult with Congress to determine if 

these reports can be eliminated. Here, 

the administration suggests that Congress repeal the two reports eliminated 

by this bill. Both of these reports are 

prepared by the Office of Justice Programs and the Department of Justice, 

but the underlying grant programs 

have not been funded by Congress for 

many years. Adopting this commonsense bill is a simple step that Congress can take to help Federal agencies 

work more efficiently. I hope this bill 

sets a precedent for many similar bills 

in the future. 

I again thank Mr. CONYERS for his 

initiative on this issue. I would urge 

my colleagues to support this bill, and 

I reserve the balance of my time. 

Mr. CONYERS. Mr. Speaker, I yield 

myself such time as I may consume. 

H.R. 6189, the Reporting Efficiency 

Improvement Act, eliminates two reporting requirements that the Department of Justice deems no longer needy 

or useful to the Congress. 

Under the Government Performance 

and Results Modernization Act, the Department of Justice conducts an annual review of statutory reporting requirements that are outdated, duplicative, or otherwise no longer useful. In 

this review, the Department identified 

two reports that are the subject of the 

bill before us now. The first of the two 

stems from the DNA Analysis Backlog 

Elimination Act, under which the Attorney General is required to report to 

Congress on various grants made to 

States to perform DNA analysis. Because Congress has not appropriated 

any funding for these specific grants 

since fiscal year 2003, this statutory reporting requirement has been obsolete 

for almost a decade. 

The second report is based on the Police Corps Act, originally a part of the 

Violent Crime Control Act of 1994. The 

Director of the Office of the Police 

Corps is required to make an annual report to Congress on the program’s status. However, Congress hasn’t appropriated any funds for the office since 

fiscal year 2005. 

So, H.R. 6189 is a simple cleanup of 

the Federal code. There is no need to 

have these reporting requirements on 

the books if there’s no activity for the 

Department of Justice or the Office of 

Justice Programs to report, and none 

planned at any time in the near future. 

It’s important to note that this legislation doesn’t make changes to the relevant programs; it merely eliminates 

discrete reporting requirements that 

are no longer useful. 

I want to thank LAMAR SMITH, the 

chairman of the Judiciary Committee, 

for his support and eagerness in moving this legislation through the committee. 

I urge my colleagues to support the 

measure. And having no other requests 

for additional speakers on this side, I 

yield back the balance of my time. 

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

first want to thank the ranking member, the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. 

CONYERS), for his nice comments, and 

I’ll yield back the balance of my time 

as well. 

The SPEAKER pro tempore. The 

question is on the motion offered by 

the gentleman from Texas (Mr. SMITH) 

that the House suspend the rules and 

pass the bill, H.R. 6189, as amended. 

The question was taken; and (twothirds being in the affirmative) the 

rules were suspended and the bill, as 

amended, was passed. 

A motion to reconsider was laid on 

the table.

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from

The Chair recognizes the gentleman 

from Texas. 

GENERAL LEAVE

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days within 

which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous materials on H.R. 6080, currently under consideration. 

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there 

objection to the request of the gentleman from Texas? 

There was no objection. 

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

yield myself such time as I may consume. 

Mr. Speaker, the rules of the House 

entrust to the Judiciary Committee 

the responsibilities of revision and 

codification of the statutes of the 

United States. This power does not 

give our committee substantive legislative jurisdiction over all areas of law. 

It merely confers the authority to organize duly enacted laws into an efficient codification system. 

The nonpartisan Office of Law Revision Counsel is responsible for properly 

codifying public laws into titles and 

sections of the United States Code. 

From time to time, that office provides 

the Judiciary Committee with advice 

as to how to enact a more user-friendly 

and cohesive statutory system. 

This spring, Republican and Democratic committee staff worked cooperatively with the Office of Law Revision 

Counsel to develop H.R. 6080. The bill 

makes technical improvements to title 

41 of United States Code, which contains Federal laws that govern public 

contracts. The bill makes no changes 

to substantive law. 

I encourage my colleagues to support 

this bill. I yield back the balance of my 

time. 

Ms. ZOE LOFGREN of California. Mr. 

Speaker, I yield myself such time as I 

may consume. 

Mr. Speaker, I’m pleased to join my 

colleague, Judiciary Committee Chairman LAMAR SMITH, in bringing this bill 

to the floor. This is a commonsense 

bill. As has been noted, it makes technical revisions to bipartisan legislation 

enacted during the 111th Congress that 

created the new title 41 to the U.S.C., 

which pertains to public contracts. 

This bill was prepared by the Office 

of Law Revision Counsel as part of its 

ongoing responsibility to draft and submit to the Committee on the Judiciary, one title at a time, a complete 

compilation, restatement and revision 

of the general and permanent laws of 

the United States. 

The bill makes conforming amendments to laws contained in title 41, 

corrects references that require more 

particular reference. In addition, the 

bill omits references to outdated or repealed laws, makes clarifying revisions 

to sections of title 41 that do not provide meanings for particular words for 

the purpose of clarity, and corrects two 

cross-references to public laws that 

may have been erroneously included. 

The bill is not intended to make any 

substantive changes to the law. As is 

typical with the codification process, a 

number of nonsubstantive revisions are 

made, including the revision of sections into a more coherent overall 

structure; but these changes, as I’ve 

said, are not intended to have any substantive effect. 

I urge my colleagues to support this 

legislation. And I would like to take 

this opportunity to thank the Office of 

the Law Revision Counsel for its good 

work. This makes the practice of law 

more coherent in the United States. 

We have no speakers, and so I yield 

back the balance of my time. 

The SPEAKER pro tempore. The 

question is on the motion offered by 

the gentleman from Texas (Mr. SMITH) 

that the House suspend the rules and 

pass the bill, H.R. 6080. 

The question was taken; and (twothirds being in the affirmative) the 

rules were suspended and the bill was 

passed. 

A motion to reconsider was laid on 

the table. 

f 

REAUTHORIZING CERTAIN VISA 

PROGRAMS 

Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I 

move to suspend the rules and pass the 

bill (S. 3245) to extend by 3 years the 

authorization of the EB–5 Regional 

Center Program, the E-Verify Program, the Special Immigrant Nonminister Religious Worker Program, and 

the Conrad State 30 J–1 Visa Waiver 

Program. 

The Clerk read the title of the bill. 

The text of the bill is as follows: 

S. 3245 

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of 

Representatives of the United States of America 

in Congress assembled, 

SECTION 1. REAUTHORIZATION OF EB–5 REGIONAL CENTER PROGRAM.
