agriculture risk coverage payments under section 1117(b)(1) of the 
Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017(b)(1)), that provides all or 
some of the State Farm Service Agency offices in each State the 
opportunity to provide agricultural producers in the State a 
supplemental payment described in subsection (c) based on the alternate 
calculation method described in subsection (b) for 1 or more counties 
in a State if the office for that State determines that the alternate 
calculation method is necessary to ensure that, to the maximum extent 
practicable, there are not significant yield calculation disparities 
between comparable counties in the State.
    (b) The alternate calculation method referred to in subsection (a) 
is a method of calculating the actual yield for the 2017 crop year for 
county-level agriculture risk coverage payments under section 
1117(b)(1) of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017(b)(1)), under 
which--
        (1) county data of the National Agricultural Statistics Service 
    (referred to in this section as ``NASS data'') is used for the

    determined under standards of the Secretary in effect as of the 
    date of enactment of this Act) or the available NASS data produces 
    a substantially disparate result, the calculation of the county 
    yield is determined using comparable contiguous county NASS data as 
    determined by the Farm Service Agency office in the applicable 
    State; and
        (3) if there is insufficient NASS data for a comparable 
    contiguous county (as determined under standards of the Secretary 
    in effect as of the date of enactment of this Act), the calculation 
    of the county yield is determined using reliable yield data from 
    other sources, such as Risk Management Agency data, National 
    Agricultural Statistics Service district data, National 
    Agricultural Statistics Service State yield data, or other data as 
    determined by the Farm Service Agency office in the applicable 
    State.
    (c)(1) A supplemental payment made under the pilot program 
established under this section may be made to an agricultural producer 
who is subject to the alternate calculation method described in 
subsection (b) if that agricultural producer would otherwise receive a 
county-level agriculture risk coverage payment for the 2017 crop year 
in an amount that is less than the payment that the agricultural 
producer would receive under the alternate calculation method.
    (2) The amount of a supplemental payment to an agricultural 
producer under this section may not exceed the difference between--
        (A) the payment that the agricultural producer would have 
    received without the alternate calculation method described in 
    subsection (b); and
        (B) the payment that the agricultural producer would receive 
    using the alternate calculation method.
    (d)(1) There is appropriated to the Secretary, out of funds of the 
Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $5,000,000, to remain available 
until September 30, 2019, to carry out the pilot program described in

than $5,000,000 to carry out the pilot program described in this 
section.
    (e)(1) To the maximum extent practicable, the Secretary shall 
select States to participate in the pilot program under this section so 
the cost of the pilot program equals the amount provided under 
subsection (d).
    (2) To the extent that the cost of the pilot program exceeds the 
amount made available, the Secretary shall reduce all payments under 
the pilot program on a pro rata basis.
    (f) Nothing in this section affects the calculation of actual yield 
for purposes of county-level agriculture risk coverage payments under 
section 1117(b)(1) of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 
9017(b)(1)) other than payments made in accordance with the pilot 
program under this section.
    (g) A calculation of actual yield made using the alternate 
calculation method described in subsection (b) shall not be used as a 
basis for any agriculture risk coverage payment determinations under 
section 1117 of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (7 U.S.C. 9017) other than

protect the interests of the Government.
    Sec. 746.  None of the funds made available by this or any other 
Act may be used to enter into a contract, memorandum of understanding,

this Act and that has operated at a Bureau-funded school before 
September 1, 1999, may continue to operate during that period, but only 
if the charter school pays to the Bureau a pro rata share of funds to 
reimburse the Bureau for the use of the real and personal property 
(including buses and vans), the funds of the charter school are kept

cost funds to such grantee using the section 5(f) distribution formula.
    Funds available under this Act may not be used to establish 
satellite locations of schools in the Bureau school system as of 
September 1, 1996, except that the Secretary may waive this prohibition 
in order for an Indian tribe to provide language and cultural immersion 
educational programs for non-public schools located within the 
jurisdictional area of the tribal government which exclusively serve 
tribal members, do not include grades beyond those currently served at 
the existing Bureau-funded school, provide an educational environment 
with educator presence and academic facilities comparable to the 
Bureau-funded school, comply with all applicable Tribal, Federal, or 
State health and safety standards, and the Americans with Disabilities 
Act, and demonstrate the benefits of establishing operations at a 
satellite location in lieu of incurring extraordinary costs, such as 
for transportation or other impacts to students such as those caused by 
busing students extended distances:  Provided, That no funds available 
under this Act may be used to fund operations, maintenance, 
rehabilitation, construction or other facilities-related costs for such 
assets that are not owned by the Bureau:  Provided further, That the 
term ``satellite school'' means a school location physically separated 
from the existing Bureau school by more than 50 miles but that forms 
part of the existing school in all other respects.
    Of the prior year unobligated balances available for the 
``Operation of Indian Programs'' account, $8,000,000 are permanently

    upon determination that such a waiver is necessary to facilitate 
    the financing of acquisition, construction, and/or rehabilitation

    subsection (d)(2), the owner or mortgagor of the receiving project

Secretary shall not impose any requirement or guideline relating to 
asset management that restricts or limits in any way the use of capital 
funds for central office costs pursuant to section 9(g)(1) or 9(g)(2) 
of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g(g)(1), (2)):

    Sec. 218.  No official or employee of the Department of Housing and 
Urban Development shall be designated as an allotment holder unless the

allotment holder has implemented an adequate system of funds control 
and has received training in funds control procedures and directives. 
The Chief Financial Officer shall ensure that there is a trained 
allotment holder for each HUD sub-office under the accounts ``Executive 
Offices'' and ``Administrative Support Offices,'' as well as each 
account receiving appropriations for ``Program Office Salaries and 
Expenses'', ``Government National Mortgage Association--Guarantees of 
Mortgage-Backed Securities Loan Guarantee Program Account'', and 
``Office of Inspector General'' within the Department of Housing and 
Urban Development.

issuance of a notice of the availability of assistance or notice of 
funding availability (NOFA) for any program or discretionary fund 
administered by the Secretary that is to be competitively awarded.

    Sec. 222. (a) Any entity receiving housing assistance payments 
shall maintain decent, safe, and sanitary conditions, as determined by 
the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (in this section 
referred to as the ``Secretary''), and comply with any standards under 
applicable State or local laws, rules, ordinances, or regulations 
relating to the physical condition of any property covered under a 
housing assistance payment contract.
    (b) The Secretary shall take action under subsection (c) when a 
multifamily housing project with a section 8 contract or contract for 
similar project-based assistance--
        (1) receives a Uniform Physical Condition Standards (UPCS) 
    score of 60 or less; or
        (2) fails to certify in writing to the Secretary within 3 days 
    that all Exigent Health and Safety deficiencies identified by the 
    inspector at the project have been corrected.
Such requirements shall apply to insured and noninsured projects with 
assistance attached to the units under section 8 of the United States 
Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f), but do not apply to such units 
assisted under section 8(o)(13) (42 U.S.C. 1437f(o)(13)) or to public 
housing units assisted with capital or operating funds under section 9 
of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g).
    (c)(1) Within 15 days of the issuance of the REAC inspection, the 
Secretary must provide the owner with a Notice of Default with a 
specified timetable, determined by the Secretary, for correcting all 
deficiencies. The Secretary must also provide a copy of the Notice of 
Default to the tenants, the local government, any mortgagees, and any 
contract administrator. If the owner's appeal results in a UPCS score 
of 60 or above, the Secretary may withdraw the Notice of Default.
    (2) At the end of the time period for correcting all deficiencies 
specified in the Notice of Default, if the owner fails to fully correct 
such deficiencies, the Secretary may--
        (A) require immediate replacement of project management with a 
    management agent approved by the Secretary;
        (B) impose civil money penalties, which shall be used solely 
    for the purpose of supporting safe and sanitary conditions at 
    applicable properties, as designated by the Secretary, with 
    priority given to the tenants of the property affected by the 
    penalty;
        (C) abate the section 8 contract, including partial abatement, 
    as determined by the Secretary, until all deficiencies have been 
    corrected;
        (D) pursue transfer of the project to an owner, approved by the 
    Secretary under established procedures, which will be obligated to 
    promptly make all required repairs and to accept renewal of the 
    assistance contract as long as such renewal is offered;
        (E) transfer the existing section 8 contract to another project 
    or projects and owner or owners;
        (F) pursue exclusionary sanctions, including suspensions or 
    debarments from Federal programs;
        (G) seek judicial appointment of a receiver to manage the 
    property and cure all project deficiencies or seek a judicial order 
    of specific performance requiring the owner to cure all project 
    deficiencies;
        (H) work with the owner, lender, or other related party to 
    stabilize the property in an attempt to preserve the property 
    through compliance, transfer of ownership, or an infusion of 
    capital provided by a third-party that requires time to effectuate; 
    or
        (I) take any other regulatory or contractual remedies available 
    as deemed necessary and appropriate by the Secretary.
    (d) The Secretary shall also take appropriate steps to ensure that 
project-based contracts remain in effect, subject to the exercise of 
contractual abatement remedies to assist relocation of tenants for 
major threats to health and safety after written notice to the affected 
tenants. To the extent the Secretary determines, in consultation with 
the tenants and the local government, that the property is not feasible 
for continued rental assistance payments under such section 8 or other 
programs, based on consideration of--
        (1) the costs of rehabilitating and operating the property and 
    all available Federal, State, and local resources, including rent 
    adjustments under section 524 of the Multifamily Assisted Housing 
    Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 (``MAHRAA''); and
        (2) environmental conditions that cannot be remedied in a cost-
    effective fashion, the Secretary may contract for project-based 
    rental assistance payments with an owner or owners of other 
    existing housing properties, or provide other rental assistance.
    (e) The Secretary shall report quarterly on all properties covered 
by this section that are assessed through the Real Estate Assessment 
Center and have UPCS physical inspection scores of less than 60 or have 
received an unsatisfactory management and occupancy review within the 
past 36 months. The report shall include--
        (1) the enforcement actions being taken to address such 
    conditions, including imposition of civil money penalties and 
    termination of subsidies, and identify properties that have such 
    conditions multiple times;
        (2) actions that the Department of Housing and Urban 
    Development is taking to protect tenants of such identified 
    properties; and
        (3) any administrative or legislative recommendations to 
    further improve the living conditions at properties covered under a 
    housing assistance payment contract.

        $200 or more, the adjustment would result in a change in the 
        current amount of less than 5 percent.

    last amended under subsection (c), whichever is latest.
    ``(c) Amendments to Schedule.--In addition to the adjustments 
required by subsection (b), the Commission shall by rule amend the 
schedule of application fees established under this section if the 
Commission determines that the schedule requires amendment--

collect regulatory fees at such rates as the Commission shall establish 
in a schedule of regulatory fees that will result in the collection, in 
each fiscal year, of an amount that can reasonably be expected to equal 
the amounts described in subsection (a) with respect to such fiscal 
year.
    ``(c) Adjustment of Schedule.--
        ``(1) In general.--For each fiscal year, the Commission shall 
    by rule adjust the schedule of regulatory fees established under 
    this section to--

        number of units subject to the payment of such fees; and

        subsection (b).

    the Commission may round fees to the nearest $5 increment.
    ``(d) Amendments to Schedule.--In addition to the adjustments 
required by subsection (c), the Commission shall by rule amend the 
schedule of regulatory fees established under this section if the 
Commission determines that the schedule requires amendment so that such 
fees reflect the full-time equivalent number of employees within the 
bureaus and offices of the Commission, adjusted to take into account 
factors that are reasonably related to the benefits provided to the 
payor of the fee by the Commission's activities. In making an amendment 
under this subsection, the Commission may not change the total amount 
of regulatory fees required by subsection (b) to be collected in a 
fiscal year.

        television station.
        ``(2) Cost of collection.--If, in the judgment of the 
    Commission, the cost of collecting a regulatory fee established 
    under this section from a party would exceed the amount collected 
    from such party, the Commission may exempt such party from paying 
    such fee.
    ``(f) Deposit of Collections.--
        ``(1) In general.--Amounts received from fees authorized by 
    this section shall be deposited as an offsetting collection in, and 
    credited to, the account through which funds are made available to 
    carry out the activities described in section 6(a).

    collected in excess of the total amount of fees provided for in 
    Appropriations Acts for a fiscal year shall be deposited in the 
    general fund of the Treasury of the United States for the sole

        to spectrum obtained through the program would facilitate 
        deployment of advanced telecommunications services in the areas 
        covered by the program;
            (B) what conditions may be needed on transfers of spectrum 
        under the program to allow covered small carriers that obtain 
        spectrum under the program to build out the spectrum in a 
        reasonable period of time;
            (C) what incentives may be appropriate to encourage

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLES.

    This division may be cited as the ``Targeted Rewards for the Global 
Eradication of Human Trafficking'' or the ``TARGET Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
        (1) Trafficking in persons is a major transnational crime, as 
    recognized by the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (22 
    U.S.C. 7101 et seq.; division A of Public Law 106-386).
        (2) Trafficking in persons is increasingly perpetrated by 
    organized, sophisticated criminal enterprises.
        (3) Combating trafficking in persons requires a global approach 
    to identifying and apprehending the world's worst human trafficking 
    rings.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the 
Department of State's rewards program is a powerful tool in combating 
sophisticated international crime and that the Department of State and 
Federal law enforcement should work in concert to offer rewards that 
target human traffickers who prey on the most vulnerable people around 
the world.

After a Natural Disaster Act''.

SEC. 1001. SHORT TITLE.

    This title may be cited as the ``Taylor Force Act''.

SEC. 1002. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
        (1) The Palestinian Authority's practice of paying salaries to 
    terrorists serving in Israeli prisons, as well as to the families 
    of deceased terrorists, is an incentive to commit acts of terror.
        (2) The United States does not provide direct budgetary support 
    to the Palestinian Authority. The United States does pay certain 
    debts held by the Palestinian Authority and funds programs for 
    which the Palestinian Authority would otherwise be responsible.
        (3) The United States Government supports community-based 
    programs in the West Bank and Gaza that provide for basic human 
    needs, such as food, water, health, shelter, protection, education, 
    and livelihoods, and that promote peace and development.
        (4) Since fiscal year 2015, annual appropriations legislation 
    has mandated the reduction of Economic Support Fund aid for the 
    Palestinian Authority as a result of their payments for acts of 
    terrorism including, in fiscal year 2017, a reduction ``by an 
    amount the Secretary determines is equivalent to the amount 
    expended by the Palestinian Authority, the Palestine Liberation 
    Organization, and any successor or affiliated organizations with 
    such entities as payments for acts of terrorism by individuals who 
    are imprisoned after being fairly tried and convicted for acts of 
    terrorism and by individuals who died committing acts of terrorism 
    during the previous calendar year''.

SEC. 1003. SENSE OF CONGRESS.

    Congress--
        (1) calls on the Palestinian Authority, the Palestine 
    Liberation Organization, and any successor or affiliated 
    organizations to stop payments for acts of terrorism by individuals 
    who are imprisoned after being fairly tried and convicted for acts 
    of terrorism and by individuals who died committing acts of 
    terrorism and to repeal the laws authorizing such payments;
        (2) calls on all donor countries providing budgetary assistance 
    to the Palestinian Authority to cease direct budgetary support 
    until the Palestinian Authority stops all payments incentivizing 
    terror;
        (3) urges the Palestinian Authority to develop programs to 
    provide essential public services and support to any individual in 
    need within its jurisdictional control, rather than to provide 
    payments contingent on perpetrating acts of violence;
        (4) urges the United States Permanent Representative to the 
    United Nations to use the voice, vote, and influence of the United 
    States at the United Nations to highlight the issue of Palestinian 
    Authority payments for acts of terrorism and to urge other Member 
    States to apply pressure upon the Palestinian Authority to 
    immediately cease such payments; and
        (5) urges the Department of State to use its bilateral and 
    multilateral engagements with all governments and organizations 
    committed to the cause of peace between Israel and the Palestinians 
    to highlight the issue of Palestinian Authority payments for acts 
    of terrorism and to urge such governments and organizations to join 
    the United States in calling on the Palestinian Authority to 
    immediately cease such payments.

            (B) have terminated payments for acts of terrorism against 
        Israeli citizens and United States citizens to any individual, 
        after being fairly tried, who has been imprisoned for such acts

            (C) have revoked any law, decree, regulation, or document 
        authorizing or implementing a system of compensation for 
        imprisoned individuals that uses the sentence or period of 
        incarceration of an individual imprisoned for an act of 
        terrorism to determine the level of compensation paid, or have 
        taken comparable action that has the effect of invalidating any 
        such law, decree, regulation, or document; and
            (D) are publicly condemning such acts of violence and are 
        taking steps to investigate or are cooperating in 
        investigations of such acts to bring the perpetrators to 
        justice.

        (2) shall be in an amount that is not less than the total 
    amount required by such other provision of law.
    (d) Initial Use and Disposition of Withheld Funds.--
        (1) Period of availability.--Funds withheld pursuant to this 
    section are authorized to remain available for an additional 2 
    years from the date on which the availability of such funds would

                         DIVISION V--CLOUD ACT

SEC. 101. SHORT TITLE.

    This division may be cited as the ``Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use 
of Data Act'' or the ``CLOUD Act''.

SEC. 102. CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
        (1) Timely access to electronic data held by communications-
    service providers is an essential component of government efforts 
    to protect public safety and combat serious crime, including 
    terrorism.
        (2) Such efforts by the United States Government are being 
    impeded by the inability to access data stored outside the United 
    States that is in the custody, control, or possession of 
    communications-service providers that are subject to jurisdiction 
    of the United States.
        (3) Foreign governments also increasingly seek access to 
    electronic data held by communications-service providers in the 
    United States for the purpose of combating serious crime.
        (4) Communications-service providers face potential conflicting 
    legal obligations when a foreign government orders production of 
    electronic data that United States law may prohibit providers from 
    disclosing.
        (5) Foreign law may create similarly conflicting legal 
    obligations when chapter 121 of title 18, United States Code 
    (commonly known as the `` Stored Communications Act''), requires 
    disclosure of electronic data that foreign law prohibits 
    communications-service providers from disclosing.
        (6) International agreements provide a mechanism for resolving 
    these potential conflicting legal obligations where the United 
    States and the relevant foreign government share a common 
    commitment to the rule of law and the protection of privacy and 
    civil liberties.

SEC. 103. PRESERVATION OF RECORDS; COMITY ANALYSIS OF LEGAL PROCESS.

    (a) Required Preservation and Disclosure of Communications and 
Records.--
        (1) Amendment.--Chapter 121 of title 18, United States Code, is 
    amended by adding at the end the following:

``Sec. 2713. Required preservation and disclosure of communications and 
            records

    ``A provider of electronic communication service or remote 
computing service shall comply with the obligations of this chapter to 
preserve, backup, or disclose the contents of a wire or electronic 
communication and any record or other information pertaining to a 
customer or subscriber within such provider's possession, custody, or 
control, regardless of whether such communication, record, or other 
information is located within or outside of the United States.''.
        (2) Table of sections.--The table of sections for chapter 121 
    of title 18, United States Code, is amended by inserting after the 
    item relating to section 2712 the following:

``2713. Required preservation and disclosure of communications and 
          records.''.
    (b) Comity Analysis of Legal Process Seeking Contents of Wire or 
Electronic Communication.--Section 2703 of title 18, United States 
Code, is amended by adding at the end the following:
    ``(h) Comity Analysis and Disclosure of Information Regarding Legal 
Process Seeking Contents of Wire or Electronic Communication.--
        ``(1) Definitions.--In this subsection--
            ``(A) the term `qualifying foreign government' means a 
        foreign government--
                ``(i) with which the United States has an executive 
            agreement that has entered into force under section 2523; 
            and
                ``(ii) the laws of which provide to electronic 
            communication service providers and remote computing 
            service providers substantive and procedural opportunities 
            similar to those provided under paragraphs (2) and (5); and
            ``(B) the term `United States person' has the meaning given 
        the term in section 2523.
        ``(2) Motions to quash or modify.--(A) A provider of electronic 
    communication service to the public or remote computing service, 
    including a foreign electronic communication service or remote 
    computing service, that is being required to disclose pursuant to 
    legal process issued under this section the contents of a wire or 
    electronic communication of a subscriber or customer, may file a 
    motion to modify or quash the legal process where the provider 
    reasonably believes--
            ``(i) that the customer or subscriber is not a United 
        States person and does not reside in the United States; and
            ``(ii) that the required disclosure would create a material 
        risk that the provider would violate the laws of a qualifying 
        foreign government.
        Such a motion shall be filed not later than 14 days after the 
        date on which the provider was served with the legal process, 
        absent agreement with the government or permission from the 
        court to extend the deadline based on an application made 
        within the 14 days. The right to move to quash is without 
        prejudice to any other grounds to move to quash or defenses 
        thereto, but it shall be the sole basis for moving to quash on 
        the grounds of a conflict of law related to a qualifying 
        foreign government.
        ``(B) Upon receipt of a motion filed pursuant to subparagraph 
    (A), the court shall afford the governmental entity that applied 
    for or issued the legal process under this section the opportunity 
    to respond. The court may modify or quash the legal process, as 
    appropriate, only if the court finds that--
            ``(i) the required disclosure would cause the provider to 
        violate the laws of a qualifying foreign government;
            ``(ii) based on the totality of the circumstances, the 
        interests of justice dictate that the legal process should be 
        modified or quashed; and
            ``(iii) the customer or subscriber is not a United States 
        person and does not reside in the United States.

    appropriate--

        investigative interests of the governmental entity seeking to 
        require the disclosure;
            ``(B) the interests of the qualifying foreign government in 
        preventing any prohibited disclosure;
            ``(C) the likelihood, extent, and nature of penalties to 
        the provider or any employees of the provider as a result of
