24 It is the sense of the Senate that— 
77 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (1) the Senate supports the vision of the Air 

2 Force for the Advanced Battle Management System 

3 (ABMS) as a system of systems that can integrate 

4 air, space, and other systems to detect, track, target, 

5 and direct effects against threats in all domains; 

6 (2) such a capability will be essential to the 

7 ability of the Air Force to operate effectively as part, 

8 and in support, of the Joint Force, especially in the 

9 highly-contested operating environments established 

10 by near-peer competitors; 

11 (3) the Senate is concerned that the Air Force 

12 has not moved quickly enough over the past year to 

13 begin defining the requirements and maturing the 

14 technologies that will be essential for the Advanced 

15 Battle Management System, especially in light of the 

16 pending retirement of the Joint Surveillance and 

17 Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft 

18 that the Advanced Battle Management System is 

19 conceived, in part, to replace; 

20 (4) the Senate understands that the Air Force 

21 is moving deliberately to analyze alternative concepts 

22 for the Advanced Battle Management System and 

23 adopt an architectural approach to its design; 

24 (5) the Advanced Battle Management System, 

25 as a multidomain system of systems, must have a 
78 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 central command and control capability that can in2 tegrate these systems into a unified warfighting ca3 pability; 

4 (6) emerging technologies, such as artificial in5 telligence and automated sensor fusion, should be 

6 built into the command and control capability for 

7 the Advanced Battle Management System from the 

8 start; 

9 (7) such technologies would improve the ability 

10 of the Advanced Battle Management System to sup11 port human operators with— 

12 (A) the rapid processing and fusion of 

13 multidomain sensor data; 

14 (B) the highly-automated identification, 

15 classification, tracking, and targeting of threats 

16 in all domains; 

17 (C) the creation of a real-time common op18 erating picture from multidomain intelligence; 

19 and the ability to direct effects on the battle20 field at machine-to-machine speeds from all of 

21 the systems comprising the Advanced Battle 

22 Management System; and 

23 (8) for an effort as ambitious and complex as 

24 the Advanced Battle Management System, the Sen25 ate encourages the Air Force to use existing acquisi-
79

13 or facility. 

14 SEC. 1041. DESIGNATION OF DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

15 STRATEGIC ARCTIC PORTS. 

16 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find17 ings: 

18 (1) The strategic importance of the Arctic con19 tinues to increase as the United States and other 

20 countries recognize the military significance of the 

21 sea lanes and choke points within the region and un22 derstand the potential for power projection from the 

23 Arctic into multiple regions. 

24 (2) On January 19, 2018, Secretary of Defense 

25 James Mattis released the document titled ‘‘2018 
467 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 National Defense Strategy of the United States of 

2 America’’ in which the Secretary outlined the re3 emergence of long-term, strategic competition by 

4 countries classified by the National Security Strat5 egy as revisionist powers. 

6 (3) Russia and China have conducted military 

7 exercises together in the Arctic, have agreed to con8 nect the Northern Sea Route, claimed by Russia, 

9 with China’s Maritime Silk Road, and are working 

10 together in developing natural gas resources in the 

11 Arctic. 

12 (4) The Government of the Russian Federa13 tion— 

14 (A) has prioritized the development of Arc15 tic capabilities and has made significant invest16 ments in military infrastructure in the Arctic, 

17 including the creation of a new Arctic Com18 mand and the construction or refurbishment of 

19 16 deepwater ports and 14 airfields in the re20 gion; 

21 (B) has approximately 40 icebreakers as of 

22 May 2019, including several nuclear-powered 

23 icebreakers, is currently constructing four ice24 breakers, and is planning to build an additional 

25 eight icebreakers; and 
468 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (C) conducted the largest military exercise 

2 since the 1980s, Vostok 2018, which included— 

3 (i) 300,000 troops; 

4 (ii) 1,000 aircraft; 

5 (iii) 80 ships; 

6 (iv) 36,000 vehicles; and 

7 (v) notably, 3,200 Chinese troops, 30 

8 Chinese rotary and fixed-wing aircraft, and 

9 900 Chinese tanks. 

10 (5) The Government of the People’s Republic of 

11 China— 

12 (A) released, in January 2018, its new 

13 Arctic Strategy, the Polar Silk Road, in which 

14 it declares itself as a ‘‘near-Arctic state’’, even 

15 though its nearest territory to the Arctic is 900 

16 miles away; 

17 (B) has publicly stated that it seeks to ex18 pand its ‘‘Belt and Road Initiative’’ to the Arc19 tic region, including current investment in the 

20 natural gas fields in the Yamal Peninsula in 

21 Russia, rare-earth element mines in Greenland, 

22 and the real estate, alternative energy, and fish23 eries in Iceland; and 

24 (C) has shown great interest in expanding 

25 its Arctic presence, including through— 
469 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (i) the operation of research vessels in 

2 the region; 

3 (ii) the recent construction of the 

4 Xuelong 2, or Snow Dragon II, the only 

5 polar research boat vessel in the world that 

6 can break ice while going forward or back7 ward; 

8 (iii) a freedom of navigation operation 

9 in the Aleutian Islands in 2015; and 

10 (iv) its recent plans to develop a 

11 33,000 ton nuclear-powered icebreaker. 

12 (6) The economic significance of the Arctic con13 tinues to grow as countries around the globe begin 

14 to understand the potential for maritime transpor15 tation through, and economic and trade development 

16 in, the region. 

17 (7) The Arctic is home to 13 percent of the 

18 world’s undiscovered oil, 30 percent of its undis19 covered gas, an abundance of uranium, rare earth 

20 minerals, gold, diamonds, and millions of square 

21 miles of untapped resources, including abundant 

22 fisheries. 

23 (8) The Bering Strait is experiencing signifi24 cant increases in international traffic from vessels 

25 transiting the Northern Sea Route, increases which 
470 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 are projected to continue if decreases in sea ice cov2 erage continue. 

3 (9) Along a future ice-free Arctic shipping 

4 route, a ship sailing from South Korea to Germany 

5 would have an average travel time of just 23 days, 

6 compared to 34 days via the Suez Canal and 46 

7 days via the Cape of Good Hope. 

8 (10) In a speech at the Arctic Forum in Sep9 tember 2011, Russian Federation President Vladi10 mir Putin highlighted the Northern Sea Route as a 

11 potential alternative to the Suez Canal and has pub12 licly stated plans to invest $11,400,000,000 along 

13 the Northern Sea Route by 2024. 

14 (11) Increases in human, maritime, and re15 source development activity in the Arctic region are 

16 expected to create additional mission requirements 

17 for the Department of Defense and the Department 

18 of Homeland Security, given— 

19 (A) the strategic focus of the Government 

20 of the Russian Federation and the Government 

21 of the People’s Republic of China on the Arctic; 

22 (B) overlapping territorial claims; and 

23 (C) the potential for maritime accidents, 

24 oil spills, and illegal fishing near the exclusive 

25 economic zone of the United States. 
471 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (12) The increasing role of the United States in 

2 the Arctic has been highlighted in each of the last 

3 four National Defense Authorization Acts. 

4 (13) Section 1068 of the National Defense Au5 thorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 

6 114–92; 129 Stat. 992) required a new Department 

7 of Defense strategy to protect United States na8 tional security interests in the Arctic region. 

9 (14) Section 1095 of the National Defense Au10 thorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 

11 114–328; 130 Stat. 2438) required the Department 

12 of Defense to create criteria to designate a Depart13 ment of Defense Strategic Arctic Port. 

14 (15) Section 122 of the National Defense Au15 thorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Public Law 

16 115–91; 131 Stat. 1310) authorized the procure17 ment of one polar-class heavy icebreaker vessel. 

18 (16) Section 151 of the John S. McCain Na19 tional Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

20 2019 (Public Law 115–232) authorized the procure21 ment of five additional polar-class icebreaker vessels 

22 and expressed that the Coast Guard should— 

23 (A) maintain an inventory of not fewer 

24 than six polar-class icebreaker vessels; 
472 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (B) award a contract for the first new 

2 polar-class icebreaker not later than fiscal year 

3 2019 and deliver the icebreaker not later than 

4 fiscal year 2023; and 

5 (C) deliver the second through sixth polar6 class icebreakers at a rate of one vessel per 

7 year in fiscal years 2025 through 2029. 

8 (17) In January 2017, the Department of De9 fense released a report entitled ‘‘Report to Congress 

10 on Strategy to Protect United States National Secu11 rity Interests in the Arctic Region’’ to update ‘‘the 

12 ways and means’’ the Department of Defense in13 tends to use to achieve its objectives as it imple14 ments the 2013 National Strategy for the Arctic Re15 gion, including— 

16 (A) enhancing the capability of United 

17 States forces to defend the homeland and exer18 cise sovereignty; 

19 (B) strengthening deterrence at home and 

20 abroad; 

21 (C) preserving freedom of the seas in the 

22 Arctic; and 

23 (D) evolving the infrastructure and capa24 bilities of the Department in the Arctic con25 sistent with changing conditions and needs. 
473 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (18) The United States Coast Guard Arctic 

2 Strategic Outlook released in April 2019 states, 

3 ‘‘Demonstrating commitment to operational pres4 ence, Canada, Denmark, and Norway have made 

5 strategic investments in ice-capable patrol ships 

6 charged with national or homeland security missions. 

7 [The United States] is the only Arctic State that 

8 has not made similar investments in ice-capable sur9 face maritime security assets. This limits the ability 

10 of the Coast Guard, and the Nation, to credibly up11 hold sovereignty or respond to contingencies in the 

12 Arctic’’. 

13 (19) On January 12, 2017, Secretary of De14 fense James Mattis stated, ‘‘The Arctic is key stra15 tegic terrain . . . Russia is taking aggressive steps 

16 to increase its presence there . . . I will prioritize 

17 the development of an integrated strategy for the 

18 Arctic. I believe that our interests and the security 

19 of the Arctic would benefit from increasing the focus 

20 of the Department of Defense on this region’’. 

21 (20) On January 9, 2019, Secretary of the Air 

22 Force Heather Wilson and Chief of Staff of the Air 

23 Force General David Goldfein wrote, ‘‘. . . the Arc24 tic has become even more important to the nation. 

25 Both a northern approach to the United States, as 
474 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 well as a critical location for projecting American 

2 power, its geo-strategic significance is difficult to 

3 overstate’’. 

4 (21) On February 26, 2019, General John 

5 Hyten, Commander of the United States Strategic 

6 Command, stated, ‘‘In particular, the Arctic is an 

7 area that we really need to focus on and really look 

8 at investing. That is no longer a buffer zone. We 

9 need to be able to operate there. We need to be able 

10 to communicate there. We need to have a presence 

11 there that we have not invested in in the same way 

12 that our adversaries have. And they see that as a 

13 vulnerability from us, whereas it is becoming a 

14 strength for them and it is a weakness for us, we 

15 need to flip that equation’’. 

16 (22) On February 26, 2019, General Terrence 

17 O’Shaughnessy, Commander of the United States 

18 Northern Command stated, ‘‘It has become clear 

19 that defense of the homeland depends on our ability 

20 to detect and defeat threats operating both in the 

21 Arctic and passing through the Arctic. Russia’s 

22 fielding of advanced, long-range cruise missiles capa23 ble of flying through the northern approaches and 

24 striking targets in the United States and Canada 

25 has emerged as the dominant military threat in the 
475 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 Arctic. . . . Meanwhile, China has declared that it 

2 is not content to remain a mere observer in the Arc3 tic and has taken action to normalize its naval and 

4 commercial presence in the region in order to in5 crease its access to lucrative resources and shipping 

6 routes. I view the Arctic as the front line in the de7 fense of the United States and Canada . . .’’. 

8 (23) On May 6, 2019, Admiral Karl Schultz, 

9 Commandant of the Coast Guard stated, ‘‘We talk 

10 about the Arctic as a competitive space. We’ve seen 

11 China, we see Russia investing extensively. China 

12 built icebreakers in the time since we updated our 

13 strategy. China’s been operating off the Alaskan 

14 Arctic for a good part of the last six years on an an15 nual basis. [The Coast Guard is] championing in16 creased capabilities in the Arctic . . . better commu17 nications, better domain awareness . . . . I want to 

18 see the Arctic remain a peaceful domain. China’s a 

19 self-declared Arctic state. They’re not one of the 

20 eight Arctic nations, so for me, for the service, its 

21 presence equals influence’’. 

22 (24) On May 6, 2019, Secretary of State Mike 

23 Pompeo stated that— 

24 (A) the Arctic ‘‘has become an arena for 

25 power and for competition’’, and the United 
476 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 States is ‘‘entering a new age of strategic en2 gagement in the Arctic, complete with new 

3 threats to the Arctic and its real estate, and to 

4 all of our interests in that region.’’; 

5 (B) ‘‘Arctic sea lanes could become the 

6 21st century Suez and Panama Canals.’’; 

7 (C) ‘‘We’re concerned about Russia’s claim 

8 over the international waters of the Northern 

9 Sea Route, including its newly announced plans 

10 to connect it with China’s Maritime Silk 

11 Road.’’; 

12 (D) ‘‘In the Northern Sea Route, Moscow 

13 already illegally demands other nations request 

14 permission to pass, requires Russian maritime 

15 pilots to be aboard foreign ships, and threatens 

16 to use military force to sink any that fail to 

17 comply with their demands.’’; 

18 (E) there is a ‘‘pattern of aggressive Rus19 sian behavior here in the Arctic’’ and ‘‘we know 

20 Russian territorial ambitions can turn violent’’; 

21 and 

22 (F) we do not want ‘‘the Arctic Ocean to 

23 transform into a new South China Sea, fraught 

24 with militarization and competing territorial 

25 claims’’, nor do we want ‘‘the fragile Arctic en-
477 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 vironment exposed to the same ecological devas2 tation caused by China’s fishing fleet in the 

3 seas off its coast, or unregulated industrial ac4 tivity in its own country’’. 

5 (25) On December 6, 2018, Secretary of the 

6 Navy Richard Spencer stated, ‘‘We need to have a 

7 strategic Arctic port up in Alaska. We need to be 

8 doing FONOPs in the northwest – in the northern 

9 passage. . . . peace through presence with a sub10 marine is a little tough’’. 

11 (26) Meanwhile, the two closest strategic sea12 ports, as designated by the Department of Defense, 

13 to the Arctic Circle are the Port of Anchorage and 

14 the Port of Tacoma, located approximately 1,500 

15 nautical miles and 2,400 nautical miles away, re16 spectively, and approximately 1,900 nautical miles 

17 and 2,800 nautical miles respectively from Barrow, 

18 Alaska. 

19 (27) The distance from Bangor, Maine, to Key 

20 West, Florida, is approximately 1,450 nautical miles. 

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

23 (1) the Arctic is a region of strategic impor24 tance to the national security interests of the United 

25 States and the Department of Defense must better 
478 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 align its presence, force posture, and capabilities to 

2 meet the growing array of challenges in the region; 

3 and 

4 (2) although much progress has been made to 

5 increase awareness of Arctic issues and to promote 

6 increased presence in the region, additional meas7 ures, including the designation of one or more stra8 tegic Arctic ports, are needed to show the commit9 ment of the United States to this emerging strategic 

10 choke point of future great power competition. 

11 (c) REPORT REQUIRED.— 

12 (1) IN GENERAL.—Not later than 180 days 

13 after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Sec14 retary of Defense, in consultation with the Chairman 

15 of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Commanding Gen16 eral of the United States Army Corps of Engineers,

6 a comprehensive missile defense strategy that will 

7 deliver integrated and effective capabilities to 

8 counter ballistic, cruise, and hypersonic missile 

9 threats; 

10 (2) adversaries are quickly expanding the capa11 bilities of their existing missile systems, adding new 

12 and unprecedented types of missile capabilities to 

13 their arsenals, and further integrating offensive mis14 siles into their coercive threats, military exercises, 

15 and war planning; 

16 (3) both Russia and China are rapidly enhanc17 ing their existing offensive missile systems and de18 veloping advanced sea-, ground-, and air-launched 

19 cruise missiles as well as hypersonic capabilities; 

20 (4) due to the proliferation of offensive ballistic 

21 and cruise missiles and the emergence of game22 changing hypersonic weapons technologies, all of 

23 which threaten regional balances, our allies and 

24 partners, United States deployed armed forces, and 

25 the United States homeland, missile defenses become 
730

1 SEC. 6013. REPORT ON IMPACT OF LIBERIAN NATIONALS 

2 ON THE NATIONAL SECURITY, FOREIGN POL3 ICY, AND ECONOMIC AND HUMANITARIAN IN4 TERESTS OF THE UNITED STATES AND A JUS5 TIFICATION FOR ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS OF 

6 QUALIFYING LIBERIANS TO THAT OF LAWFUL 

7 PERMANENT RESIDENTS. 

8 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find9 ings: 

10 (1) In 1989, a seven-year civil war broke out in 

11 Liberia that— 

12 (A) claimed the lives of an estimated 

13 200,000 people; 

(B) displaced over 1 14 ⁄2 of the Liberian popu15 lation; 

16 (C) halted food production; and 

17 (D) destroyed the infrastructure and econ18 omy of Liberia. 

19 (2) A second civil war then followed from 1999 

20 to 2003, further destabilizing Liberia and creating 

21 more turmoil and hardship for Liberians. 

22 (3) In total, the two civil wars in Liberia killed 

up to an estimated 1 23 ⁄4 million individuals. 

24 (4) From 2014 to 2016, Liberia faced an Ebola 

25 virus outbreak that devastated the fragile health sys26 tem of Liberia and killed nearly 5,000 individuals. 
1163 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (5) As a result of these devastating events, 

2 thousands of Liberians sought refuge in the United 

3 States, living and working here under Temporary 

4 Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Enforced De5 parture (DED), extended under both Republican 

6 and Democratic administrations beginning in 1991 

7 with the administration of President George H. W. 

8 Bush. 

9 (6) These law-abiding and taxpaying Liberians 

10 have made homes in the United States, have worked 

11 hard, played by the rules, paid their dues, and sub12 mitted to rigorous vetting. Many such Liberians 

13 have United States citizen children who have served 

14 in the Armed Forces, and in some cases have them15 selves served in that capacity. 

16 (7) The Liberian community in the United 

17 States has also contributed greatly to private sector 

18 investment and socioeconomic assistance in Liberia 

19 by providing remittances to relatives in Liberia. 

20 (8) While there was a positive development in 

21 2017 with the first democratic transfer of power in 

22 more than 70 years, the Department of State has 

23 identified the capital and most populous city of Libe24 ria, Monrovia, as being a critical-threat location for 

25 crime. Access to healthcare remains limited, critical 
1164 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 infrastructure is lacking, and widespread corruption 

2 coupled with low wages and a weak economic recov3 ery has left the country vulnerable to civil unrest. 

4 (b) REPORT.— 

5 (1) IN GENERAL.—Not later than December 31, 

6 2019, the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with 

7 the Secretary of State, shall submit to the congres8 sional defense committees a report on the impact of 

9 Liberian nationals on the national security, foreign 

10 policy, and economic, and humanitarian interests of

12 of status of qualifying Liberians to that of lawful

18 served or are currently serving in the Armed 

19 Forces. 

20 (B) The amount of remittances sent by 

21 current or former Liberian nationals to relatives 

22 in Liberia and an assessment of the impact on 

23 the economic development of Liberia if these re24 mittances were to cease. 
1165 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (C) The economic and tax contributions 

2 that Liberian nationals and their children have 

3 made to the United States. 

4 (D) An assessment of the impact on the 

5 United States of adjusting the status of Libe6 rian nationals who have continuous physical 

7 presence in the United States beginning on No8 vember 20, 2014, and ending on the date of the 

9 enactment of this Act, or for adjusting the sta10 tus of the spouses, children, and unmarried 

11 sons or daughters of such Liberian nationals.

8 SEC. 6208. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON HONG KONG PORT VIS9 ITS. 

10 It is the sense of Congress that the Department of 

11 Defense should continue to make regular requests to the 

12 Government of the People’s Republic of China for the 

13 Navy to conduct port calls to Hong Kong, including 

14 United States aircraft carrier visits. 

15 SEC. 6209. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON POLICY TOWARD HONG 

16 KONG. 

17 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find18 ings: 

19 (1) The United States policy toward Hong 

20 Kong is guided by the United States-Hong Kong 

21 Policy Act of 1992 (Public Law 102–383; 106 Stat. 

22 1448) (referred to in this section as the ‘‘Act’’), 

23 which reaffirms that ‘‘The Hong Kong Special Ad24 ministrative Region of the People’s Republic of 

25 China, beginning on July 1, 1997, will continue to 
1206 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 enjoy a high degree of autonomy on all matters 

2 other than defense and foreign affairs.’’. 

3 (2) The Act furthermore states that ‘‘The 

4 human rights of the people of Hong Kong are of 

5 great importance to the United States and are di6 rectly relevant to United States interests in Hong 

7 Kong.’’. 

8 (3) Pursuant to section 301 of the Act (22 

9 U.S.C. 5731), the annual report issued by the De10 partment of State on developments in Hong Kong 

11 (referred to in this section as the ‘‘Report’’), re12 leased on March 21, 2019, states that ‘‘Cooperation 

13 between the United States Government and the 

14 Hong Kong government remains broad and effective 

15 in many areas, providing significant benefits to the 

16 United States economy and homeland security.’’. 

17 (4) The Report states that ‘‘the Chinese main18 land central government implemented or instigated a 

19 number of actions that appeared inconsistent with 

20 China’s commitments in the Basic Law, and in the 

21 Sino-British Joint Declaration of 1984, to allow 

22 Hong Kong to exercise a high degree of autonomy.’’. 

23 (5) The Report furthermore states that the 

24 ‘‘Hong Kong authorities took actions aligned with 

25 mainland priorities at the expense of human rights 
1207 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 and fundamental freedoms. There were particular 

2 setbacks in democratic electoral processes, freedom 

3 of expression, and freedom of association.’’. 

4 (6) On June 10, 2019, the spokesporson for the 

5 Department of State issued a statement expressing 

6 ‘‘grave concern about the Hong Kong government’s 

7 proposed amendments to its Fugitive Offenders Or8 dinance, which, if passed, would permit Chinese au9 thorities to request the extradition of individuals to 

10 mainland China.’’. 

11 (7) According to media reports, in June 2019, 

12 over 1,000,000 residents of Hong Kong have taken 

13 part in demonstrations against the proposed amend14 ments to the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance. 

15 (b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con16 gress that— 

17 (1) the government of the People’s Republic of 

18 China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative 

19 Region of the People’s Republic of China authorities 

20 should immediately cease taking all actions that un21 dermine Hong Kong’s autonomy and negatively im22 pact the protections of fundamental human rights, 

23 freedoms, and democratic values of the people of 

24 Hong Kong, as enshrined in the Act, Hong Kong’s 
1208 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 Basic Law of 1997, and the Sino-British Joint Dec2 laration of 1984; 

3 (2) the Hong Kong Special Administrative Re4 gion of the People’s Republic of China authorities 

5 should immediately withdraw from consideration the 

6 proposed amendments to its Fugitive Offenders Or7 dinance and refrain from any unwarranted use of 

8 force against the protestors that is inconsistent with 

9 internationally recognized law enforcement best 

10 practices; and 

11 (3) the United States should impose financial 

12 sanctions, visa bans, and other punitive economic 

13 measures against all individuals or entities violating 

14 the fundamental human rights and freedoms of the 

15 people of Hong Kong, consistent with United States 

16 and international law.

4 SEC. 6602. SENSE OF SENATE ON SUPPORT FOR A ROBUST 

5 AND MODERN ICBM FORCE TO MAXIMIZE 

6 THE VALUE OF THE NUCLEAR TRIAD OF THE 

7 UNITED STATES. 

8 (a) FINDINGS.—The Senate makes the following 

9 findings: 

10 (1) Land-based intercontinental ballistic mis11 siles (in this section referred to as ‘‘ICBMs’’) have 

12 been a critical part of the strategic deterrent of the 

13 United States for 6 decades in conjunction with air 

14 and sea-based strategic delivery systems. 

15 (2) President John F. Kennedy referred to the 

16 deployment of the first Minuteman missile during 

17 the Cuban Missile Crisis as his ‘‘ace in the hole’’. 

18 (3) The Minuteman III missile entered service 

19 in 1970 and is still deployed in 2019, well beyond 

20 its originally intended service life. 

21 (4) The ICBM force of the United States 

22 peaked at more than 1,200 deployed missiles during 

23 the Cold War. 

24 (5) The ICBM force of the United States cur25 rently consists of approximately 400 Minuteman III 
1238 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 missiles deployed across 450 operational missile 

2 silos, each carrying a single warhead. 

3 (6) The Russian Federation currently deploys 

4 at least 300 ICBMs with multiple warheads loaded 

5 on each missile and has announced plans to replace 

6 its Soviet-era systems with modernized ICBMs. 

7 (7) The People’s Republic of China currently 

8 deploys at least 75 ICBMs and plans to grow its 

9 ICBM force through the deployment of modernized, 

10 road-mobile ICBMs that carry multiple warheads. 

11 (8) The Russian Federation and the People’s 

12 Republic of China deploy nuclear weapons across a 

13 variety of platforms in addition to their ICBM 

14 forces. 

15 (9) Numerous countries possess or are seeking 

16 to develop nuclear weapons capabilities that pose 

17 challenges to the nuclear deterrence of the United 

18 States. 

19 (10) The nuclear deterrent of the United States 

20 is comprised of a triad of delivery systems for nu21 clear weapons, including submarine-launched bal22 listic missiles (in this subsection referred to as 

23 ‘‘SLBMs’’), air-delivered gravity bombs and cruise 

24 missiles, and land-based ballistic missiles that pro-
1239 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 vide interlocking and mutually reinforcing attributes 

2 that enhance strategic deterrence. 

3 (11) Weakening one leg of the triad limits the 

4 deterrent value of the other legs of the triad. 

5 (12) In the nuclear deterrent of the United 

6 States, ICBMs provide commanders with the most 

7 prompt response capability, SLBMs provide stealth 

8 and survivability, and aircraft armed with nuclear 

9 weapons provide flexibility. 

10 (13) The ICBM force of the United States 

11 forces any would-be attacker to confront more than 

12 400 discrete targets, thus creating an effectively in13 surmountable targeting problem for a potential ad14 versary. 

15 (14) The size, dispersal, and global reach of the 

16 ICBM force of the United States ensures that no 

17 adversary can escalate a crisis beyond the ability of 

18 the United States to respond. 

19 (15) A potential attacker would be forced to ex20 pend far more warheads to destroy the ICBMs of 

21 the United States than the United States would lose 

22 in an attack, because of the deployment of a single 

23 warhead on each ICBM of the United States. 

24 (16) The ICBM force provides a persistent de25 terrent capability that reinforces strategic stability. 
1240 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (17) ICBMs are the cheapest delivery system 

2 for nuclear weapons for the United States to operate 

3 and maintain. 

4 (18) United States Strategic Command has 

5 validated military requirements for the unique capa6 bilities of ICBMs. 

7 (19) In a 2014 analysis of alternatives, the Air 

8 Force concluded that replacing the Minuteman III 

9 missile would provide upgraded capabilities at lower 

10 cost when compared with extending the service life 

11 of the Minuteman III missile. 

12 (20) The Minuteman III replacement program, 

13 known as the ground-based strategic deterrent, is 

14 expected to provide a land-based strategic deterrent 

15 capability for 5 decades after the program enters 

16 service. 

17 (b) SENSE OF THE SENATE.—It is the sense of the 

18 Senate that— 

19 (1) land-based ICBMs have certain characteris20 tics, including responsiveness, persistence, and dis21 persal, that enhance strategic stability and magnify 

22 the deterrent value of the air and sea-based legs of 

23 the nuclear triad of the United States; 
1241 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (2) ICBMs have played and continue to play a 

2 role in deterring attacks on the United States and 

3 its allies; 

4 (3) while arms control agreements have reduced 

5 the size of the ICBM force of the United States, ad6 versaries of the United States continue to enhance, 

7 enlarge, and modernize their ICBM forces; 

8 (4) the modernization of the ICBM force of the 

9 United States through the ground-based strategic 

10 deterrent program should be supported; 

11 (5) ICBMs have the lowest operation, mainte12 nance, and modernization costs of any part of the 

13 nuclear deterrent of the United States; and 

14 (6) unilaterally reducing the size of the ICBM 

15 force of the United States or delaying the implemen16 tation of the ground-based strategic deterrent pro17 gram would degrade the deterrent capabilities of a 

18 fully operational and modernized nuclear triad and 

19 should not take place at the present time.

10 TITLE LXVIII—SANCTIONS WITH 

11 RESPECT TO FOREIGN TRAF12 FICKERS OF ILLICIT SYN13 THETIC OPIOIDS 

14 SEC. 6801. SHORT TITLE. 

15 This title may be cited as the ‘‘Fentanyl Sanctions 

16 Act’’. 

17 SEC. 6802. FINDINGS. 

18 Congress makes the following findings: 

19 (1) The Centers for Disease Control and Pre20 vention estimate that from September 2017 through 

21 September 2018 more than 48,200 people in the 

22 United States died from an opioid overdose, with 

23 synthetic opioids (excluding methadone), contrib24 uting to a record 31,900 overdose deaths. While 

25 drug overdose death estimates from methadone, 
1297 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 semi-synthetic opioids, and heroin have decreased in 

2 recent months, overdose deaths from synthetic 

3 opioids have continued to increase. 

4 (2) Congress and the President have taken a 

5 number of actions to combat the demand for illicit 

6 opioids in the United States, including enacting into 

7 law the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities 

8 Act (Public Law 115–271; 132 Stat. 3894). While 

9 new statutes and regulations have reduced the rate 

10 of opioid prescriptions in recent years, fully address11 ing the United States opioid crisis will involve dra12 matically restricting the foreign supply of illicit 

13 opioids. 

14 (3) The People’s Republic of China is the 

15 world’s largest producer of illicit fentanyl, fentanyl 

16 analogues, and their immediate precursors. From 

17 the People’s Republic of China, those substances are 

18 shipped primarily through express consignment car19 riers or international mail directly to the United 

20 States, or, alternatively, shipped directly to 

21 transnational criminal organizations in Mexico, Can22 ada, and the Caribbean. 

23 (4) The United States and the People’s Repub24 lic of China, Mexico, and Canada have made impor25 tant strides in combating the illicit flow of opioids 
1298 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 through bilateral efforts of their respective law en2 forcement agencies. 

3 (5) The objective of preventing the proliferation 

4 of illicit opioids though existing multilateral and bi5 lateral initiatives requires additional efforts to deny 

6 illicit actors the financial means to sustain their 

7 markets and distribution networks. 

8 (6) The implementation on May 1, 2019, of the 

9 regulations of the People’s Republic of China to 

10 schedule all fentanyl analogues as controlled sub11 stances is a major step in combating global opioid 

12 trafficking and represents a major achievement in 

13 United States-China law enforcement dialogues. 

14 However, that step will effectively fulfill the commit15 ment that President Xi Jinping of the People’s Re16 public of China made to President Donald Trump at 

17 the Group of Twenty meeting in December 2018 

18 only if the Government of the People’s Republic of 

19 China devotes sufficient resources to full implemen20 tation and strict enforcement of the new regulations. 

21 The effective enforcement of the new regulations 

22 should result in diminished trafficking of illicit 

23 fentanyl originating from the People’s Republic of 

24 China into the United States, so it is in the interests 

25 of both the United States and the People’s Republic 
1299 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 of China to support the effective enforcement of the 

2 regulations. 

3 (7) While the Department of the Treasury used 

4 the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (21 

5 U.S.C. 1901 et seq.) to sanction the first synthetic 

6 opioid trafficking entity in April 2018, additional 

7 economic and financial sanctions policy tools are 

8 needed to help combat the flow of synthetic opioids 

9 into the United States. 

10 SEC. 6803. SENSE OF CONGRESS. 

11 It is the sense of Congress that— 

12 (1) the United States should apply economic 

13 and other financial sanctions to foreign traffickers of 

14 illicit opioids to protect the national security, foreign 

15 policy, and economy of the United States and the 

16 health of the people of the United States; 

17 (2) it is imperative that the People’s Republic 

18 of China follow through on full implementation of 

19 the new regulations, adopted May 1, 2019, to treat 

20 all fentanyl analogues as controlled substances under 

21 the laws of the People’s Republic of China, including 

22 by devoting sufficient resources for implementation 

23 and strict enforcement of the new regulations; and 

24 (3) the effective enforcement of the new regula25 tions should result in diminished trafficking of illicit

3 SEC. 6911. FINDINGS. 

4 Congress finds the following: 

5 (1) Since 2006, the United Nations Security 

6 Council has adopted 10 resolutions imposing sanc7 tions against North Korea under chapter VII of the 

8 United Nations Charter, which— 

9 (A) prohibit the use, development, and pro10 liferation of weapons of mass destruction by 

11 North Korea; 

12 (B) prohibit the supply, sale, or transfer of 

13 arms and related materiel to or from North 

14 Korea; 

15 (C) prohibit the transfer of luxury goods to 

16 North Korea; 

17 (D) restrict access by North Korea to fi18 nancial services that could contribute to nu19 clear, missile, or other programs related to the 

20 development of weapons of mass destruction; 

21 (E) restrict North Korean shipping, includ22 ing the registration, reflagging, or insuring of 

23 North Korean ships; 
1337 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (F) prohibit, with limited exceptions, 

2 North Korean exports of coal, precious metals, 

3 iron, vanadium, and rare earth minerals; 

4 (G) prohibit the transfer to North Korea 

5 of rocket, aviation, or jet fuel, as well as gaso6 line, condensates, and natural gas liquids; 

7 (H) prohibit new work authorization for 

8 North Korean laborers and require the repatri9 ation of all North Korean laborers by December 

10 2019; 

11 (I) prohibit exports of North Korean food 

12 and agricultural products, including seafood; 

13 (J) prohibit joint ventures or cooperative 

14 commercial entities or expanding joint ventures 

15 with North Korea; 

16 (K) prohibit exports of North Korean tex17 tiles; 

18 (L) require member countries of the 

19 United Nations to seize, inspect, and impound 

20 any ship in its jurisdiction that is suspected of 

21 violating Security Council resolutions with re22 spect to North Korea and to interdict and in23 spect all cargo heading to or from North Korea 

24 by land, sea, or air; 
1338 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (M) limit the transfer to North Korea of 

2 refined petroleum products and crude oil; 

3 (N) ban the sale or transfer to North 

4 Korea of industrial machinery, transportation 

5 vehicles, electronics, iron, steel, and other met6 als; 

7 (O) reduce North Korean diplomatic staff 

8 numbers in member countries of the United 

9 Nations and expel any North Korean diplomats 

10 found to be working on behalf of a person sub11 ject to sanctions or assisting in sanctions eva12 sion; 

13 (P) limit North Korean diplomatic mis14 sions abroad with respect to staff size and ac15 cess to banking privileges and prohibit com16 merce from being conducted out of North Ko17 rean consular or diplomatic offices; 

18 (Q) require member states of the United 

19 Nations to close representative offices, subsidi20 aries, and bank accounts in North Korea; 

21 (R) prohibit countries from providing or 

22 receiving military training to or from North 

23 Korea or hosting North Koreans for specialized 

24 teaching or training that could contribute to the 
1339 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 programs of North Korea related to the devel2 opment of weapons of mass destruction; 

3 (S) ban countries from granting landing 

4 and flyover rights to North Korean aircraft; 

5 and 

6 (T) prohibit trade in statuary of North Ko7 rean origin. 

8 (2) The Government of North Korea has 

9 threatened to carry out nuclear attacks against the 

10 United States, South Korea, and Japan. 

11 (3) The Government of North Korea tested its 

12 sixth and largest nuclear device on September 3, 

13 2017. 

14 (4) According to a report by the International 

15 Atomic Energy Agency released in August 2018, 

16 ‘‘The continuation and further development of the 

17 DPRK’s nuclear programme and related statements 

18 by the DPRK are a cause for grave concern. The 

19 DPRK’s nuclear activities, including those in rela20 tion to the Yongbyon Experimental Nuclear Power 

21 Plant (5 MW(e)) reactor, the use of the building 

22 which houses the reported centrifuge enrichment fa23 cility and the construction at the light water reactor, 

24 as well as the DPRK’s sixth nuclear test, are clear 

25 violations of relevant UN Security Council resolu-
1340 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 tions, including resolution 2375 (2017) and are 

2 deeply regrettable.’’. 

3 (5) In July 2018, Secretary of State Mike 

4 Pompeo testified to the Committee on Foreign Rela5 tions of the Senate that North Korea ‘‘continue[s] to 

6 produce fissile material’’ despite public pledges by 

7 North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to denuclearize. 

8 (6) The 2019 Missile Defense Review conducted 

9 by the Department of Defense states that North 

10 Korea ‘‘continues to pose an extraordinary threat 

11 and the United States must remain vigilant. In the 

12 past, North Korea frequently issued explicit nuclear 

13 missile threats against the United States and allies, 

14 all the while working aggressively to field the capa15 bility to strike the U.S. homeland with nuclear16 armed ballistic missiles. Over the past decade, it has 

17 invested considerable resources in its nuclear and 

18 ballistic missile programs, and undertaken extensive 

19 nuclear and missile testing in order to realize the ca20 pability to threaten the U.S. homeland with missile 

21 attack. As a result, North Korea has neared the 

22 time when it could credibly do so.’’. 

23 (7) Financial transactions and investments that 

24 provide financial resources to the Government of 

25 North Korea, and that fail to incorporate adequate 
1341 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 safeguards against the misuse of those financial re2 sources, pose an undue risk of contributing to— 

3 (A) weapons of mass destruction programs 

4 of that Government; and 

5 (B) efforts to evade restrictions required 

6 by the United Nations Security Council on im7 ports or exports of arms and related materiel, 

8 services, or technology by that Government. 

9 (8) The Federal Bureau of Investigation has 

10 determined that the Government of North Korea 

11 was responsible for cyberattacks against entities in 

12 the United States, South Korea, and around the 

13 world. 

14 (9) In November 2017, President Donald 

15 Trump designated the government of North Korea 

16 as a state sponsor of terrorism pursuant to authori17 ties under the Export Administration Act of 1979 

18 (50 U.S.C. App. 2401 et seq.), as continued in effect 

19 at the time under the International Emergency Eco20 nomic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)), the 

21 Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (22 U.S.C. 2151 et 

22 seq.), and the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 

23 2751 et seq.); 

24 (10) On February 22, 2018, the Secretary of 

25 State determined that the Government of North 
1342 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 Korea was responsible for the lethal nerve agent at2 tack in 2017 on Kim Jong Nam, the half-brother of 

3 North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, in Malaysia, 

4 triggering sanctions required under the Chemical 

5 and Biological Weapons Control and Warfare Elimi6 nation Act of 1991 (22 U.S.C. 5601 et seq.). 

7 (11) The strict enforcement of sanctions is es8 sential to the efforts of the international community 

9 to achieve the peaceful, complete, verifiable, and ir10 reversible dismantlement of weapons of mass de11 struction programs of the Government of North 

12 Korea. 

13 SEC. 6912. SENSE OF CONGRESS. 

14 It is the sense of Congress that— 

15 (1) the United States is committed to working 

16 with its allies and partners to halt the nuclear and 

17 ballistic missile programs of North Korea through a 

18 policy of maximum pressure and diplomatic engage19 ment; 

20 (2) the imposition of sanctions, including those 

21 under this title, should not be construed to limit the 

22 authority of the President to fully engage in diplo23 matic negotiations to further the policy objective de24 scribed in paragraph (1); 
1343 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (3) the successful use of sanctions to halt the 

2 nuclear and ballistic missile programs of North 

3 Korea is part of a broader diplomatic and economic 

4 strategy that relies on effective coordination among 

5 relevant Federal agencies and officials, as well as 

6 with international partners of the United States; and 

7 (4) the coordination described in paragraph (3) 

8 should include proper vetting of external messaging 

9 and communications from all parts of the Executive 

10 branch to ensure that those communications are an 

11 intentional component of and aligned with the strat12 egy of the United States with respect to North 

13 Korea.

22 This subtitle may be cited as the ‘‘Financial Industry 

23 Guidance to Halt Trafficking Act’’ or the ‘‘FIGHT Act’’. 

24 SEC. 6962. FINDINGS. 

25 Congress finds the following: 
1371 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (1) The terms ‘‘human trafficking’’ and ‘‘traf2 ficking in persons’’ are used interchangeably to de3 scribe crimes involving the exploitation of a person 

4 for the purposes of compelled labor or commercial 

5 sex through the use of force, fraud, or coercion. 

6 (2) According to the International Labour Or7 ganization, there are an estimated 24,900,000 peo8 ple worldwide who are victims of forced labor, in9 cluding human trafficking victims in the United 

10 States. 

11 (3) Human trafficking is perpetrated for finan12 cial gain. 

13 (4) According to the International Labour Or14 ganization, of the estimated $150,000,000,000 or 

15 more in global profits generated annually from 

16 human trafficking— 

(A) approximately 2 17 ⁄3 are generated by 

18 commercial sexual exploitation, exacted by 

19 fraud or by force; and 

(B) approximately 1 20 ⁄3 are generated by 

21 forced labor. 

22 (5) Most purchases of commercial sex acts are 

23 paid for with cash, making trafficking proceeds dif24 ficult to identify in the financial system. Nonethe25 less, traffickers rely heavily on access to financial in-
1372 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 stitutions as destinations for trafficking proceeds 

2 and as conduits to finance every step of the traf3 ficking process. 

4 (6) Under section 1956 of title 18, United 

5 States Code (relating to money laundering), human 

6 trafficking is a ‘‘specified unlawful activity’’ and 

7 transactions conducted with proceeds earned from 

8 trafficking people, or used to further trafficking op9 erations, can be prosecuted as money laundering of10 fenses. 

11 SEC. 6963. SENSE OF CONGRESS. 

12 It is the sense of Congress that— 

13 (1) the President should aggressively apply, as 

14 appropriate, existing sanctions for human trafficking 

15 authorized under section 111 of the Trafficking Vic16 tims Protection Act of 2000 (22 U.S.C. 7108); 

17 (2) the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network 

18 of the Department of the Treasury should con19 tinue— 

20 (A) to monitor reporting required under 

21 subchapter II of chapter 53 of title 31, United 

22 States Code (commonly known as the ‘‘Bank 

23 Secrecy Act’’) and to update advisories, as war24 ranted; 
1373 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (B) to periodically review its advisories to 

2 provide covered financial institutions, as appro3 priate, with a list of new ‘‘red flags’’ for identi4 fying activities of concern, particularly human 

5 trafficking; 

6 (C) to encourage entities covered by the 

7 advisories described in subparagraph (B) to in8 corporate relevant elements provided in the 

9 advisories into their current transaction and ac10 count monitoring systems or in policies, proce11 dures, and training on human trafficking to en12 able financial institutions to maintain ongoing 

13 efforts to examine transactions and accounts; 

14 (D) to use geographic targeting orders, as 

15 appropriate, to impose additional reporting and 

16 recordkeeping requirements under section 

17 5326(a) of title 31, United States Code, to 

18 carry out the purposes of, and prevent evasions 

19 of the Bank Secrecy Act; and 

20 (E) to utilize the Bank Secrecy Act Advi21 sory Group and other relevant entities to iden22 tify opportunities for nongovernmental organi23 zations to share relevant actionable information 

24 on human traffickers’ use of the financial sector 

25 for nefarious purposes; 
1374 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (3) Federal banking regulators, the Department 

2 of the Treasury, relevant law enforcement agencies, 

3 and the Human Smuggling and Trafficking Center, 

4 in partnership with representatives from the United 

5 States financial community, should adopt regular 

6 forms of sharing information to disrupt human traf7 ficking, including developing protocols and proce8 dures to share actionable information between and 

9 amongst covered institutions, law enforcement, and 

10 the United States intelligence community; 

11 (4) training front line bank and money service 

12 business employees, school teachers, law enforcement 

13 officers, foreign service officers, counselors, and the 

14 general public is an important factor in identifying 

15 trafficking victims; 

16 (5) the Department of Homeland Security’s 

17 Blue Campaign, training by the BEST Employers 

18 Alliance, and similar efforts by industry, human 

19 rights, and nongovernmental organizations focused 

20 on human trafficking provide good examples of cur21 rent efforts to educate employees of critical sectors 

22 to save victims and disrupt trafficking networks; 

23 (6) the President should intensify diplomatic ef24 forts, bilaterally and in appropriate international 

25 fora, such as the United Nations, to develop and im-
1375 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 plement a coordinated, consistent, multilateral strat2 egy for addressing the international financial net3 works supporting human trafficking; and 

4 (7) in deliberations between the United States 

5 Government and any foreign country, including 

6 through participation in the Egmont Group of Fi7 nancial Intelligence Units, regarding money laun8 dering, corruption, and transnational crimes, the 

9 United States Government should— 

10 (A) encourage cooperation by foreign gov11 ernments and relevant international fora in 

12 identifying the extent to which the proceeds 

13 from human trafficking are being used to facili14 tate terrorist financing, corruption, or other il15 licit financial crimes; 

16 (B) encourage cooperation by foreign gov17 ernments and relevant international fora in 

18 identifying the nexus between human traf19 ficking and money laundering; 

20 (C) advance policies that promote the co21 operation of foreign governments, through in22 formation sharing, training, or other measures, 

23 in the enforcement of this subtitle; 

24 (D) encourage the Financial Action Task 

25 Force to update its July 2011 typology reports

1 entitled, ‘‘Laundering the Proceeds of Corrup2 tion’’ and ‘‘Money Laundering Risks Arising 

3 from Trafficking in Human Beings and Smug4 gling of Migrants’’, to identify the money laun5 dering risk arising from the trafficking of 

6 human beings; and 

7 (E) encourage the Egmont Group of Fi8 nancial Intelligence Units to study the extent to 

9 which human trafficking operations are being 

10 used for money laundering, terrorist financing,

19 SEC. 9404. ENCOURAGING COOPERATIVE ACTIONS TO DE20 TECT AND COUNTER FOREIGN INFLUENCE 

21 OPERATIONS. 

22 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find23 ings: 

24 (1) The Russian Federation, through military 

25 intelligence units, also known as the ‘‘GRU’’, and 
1529 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 Kremlin-linked troll organizations often referred to 

2 as the ‘‘Internet Research Agency’’, deploy informa3 tion warfare operations against the United States, 

4 its allies and partners, with the goal of advancing 

5 the strategic interests of the Russian Federation. 

6 (2) One line of effort deployed as part of these 

7 information warfare operations is the weaponization 

8 of social media platforms with the goals of inten9 sifying societal tensions, undermining trust in gov10 ernmental institutions within the United States, its 

11 allies and partners in the West, and generally sow12 ing division, fear, and confusion. 

13 (3) These information warfare operations are a 

14 threat to the national security of the United States 

15 and that of the allies and partners of the United 

16 States. As Director of National Intelligence Dan 

17 Coats stated, ‘‘These actions are persistent, they are 

18 pervasive and they are meant to undermine Amer19 ica’s democracy.’’. 

20 (4) These information warfare operations con21 tinue to evolve and increase in sophistication. 

22 (5) Other foreign adversaries and hostile non23 state actors will increasingly adopt similar tactics of 

24 deploying information warfare operations against the 

25 West. 
1530 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (6) Technological advances, including artificial 

2 intelligence, will only make it more difficult in the 

3 future to detect fraudulent accounts, deceptive mate4 rial posted on social media, and malign behavior on 

5 social media platforms. 

6 (7) Because these information warfare oper7 ations are deployed within and across private social 

8 media platforms, the companies that own these plat9 forms have a responsibility to detect and remove for10 eign adversary networks operating clandestinely on 

11 their platforms. 

12 (8) The social media companies are inherently 

13 technologically sophisticated and adept at rapidly 

14 analyzing large amounts of data and developing soft15 ware-based solutions to diverse and ever-changing 

16 challenges on their platforms, which makes them 

17 well-equipped to address the threat occurring on 

18 their platforms. 

19 (9) Independent analyses confirmed Kremlin20 linked threat networks, based on data provided by 

21 several social media companies to the Select Com22 mittee on Intelligence of the Senate, thereby dem23 onstrating that it is possible to discern both broad 

24 patterns of cross-platform information warfare oper-
1531 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 ations and specific fraudulent behavior on social 

2 media platforms. 

3 (10) General Paul Nakasone, Director of the 

4 National Security Agency, emphasized the impor5 tance of these independent analyses to the planning 

6 and conduct of military cyber operations to frustrate 

7 Kremlin-linked information warfare operations 

8 against the 2018 mid-term elections. General 

9 Nakasone stated that the reports ‘‘were very, very 

10 helpful in terms of being able to understand exactly 

11 what our adversary was trying to do to build dissent 

12 within our nation.’’. 

13 (11) Institutionalizing ongoing robust, inde14 pendent, and vigorous analysis of data related to 

15 foreign threat networks within and across social 

16 media platforms will help counter ongoing informa17 tion warfare operations against the United States, 

18 its allies, and its partners. 

19 (12) Archiving and disclosing to the public the 

20 results of these analyses by the social media compa21 nies and trusted third-party experts in a transparent 

22 manner will serve to demonstrate that the social 

23 media companies are detecting and removing foreign 

24 malign activities from their platforms while pro25 tecting the privacy of the people of the United 
1532 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 States and will build public understanding of the 

2 scale and scope of these foreign threats to our de3 mocracy, since exposure is one of the most effective 

4 means to build resilience. 

5 (b) SENSE OF THE SENATE.—It is the sense of the 

6 Senate that— 

7 (1) the social media companies should cooperate 

8 among themselves and with independent organiza9 tions and researchers on a sustained and regular 

10 basis to share and analyze data and indicators rel11 evant to foreign information warfare operations 

12 within and across their platforms in order to detect 

13 and counter foreign information warfare operations 

14 that threaten the national security of the United 

15 States and its allies and partners; 

16 (2) these analytic efforts should be organized in 

17 such a fashion as to meet the highest standards of 

18 ethics, confidentiality, and privacy protection of the 

19 people of the United States; 

20 (3) these analytic efforts should be undertaken 

21 as soon as possible to facilitate countering ongoing 

22 Kremlin, Kremlin-linked, and other foreign informa23 tion warfare operations and to aid in preparations 

24 for the United States presidential and congressional 

25 elections in 2020 and beyond; 
1533 

†S 1790 ES1S 

1 (4) the structure and operations of social media 

2 companies make them well positioned to address for3 eign adversary threat networks within and across 

4 their platforms, and these efforts could be conducted 

5 without direct Government involvement, direction, or 

6 regulation; and 

7 (5) if the social media industry fails to take 

8 sufficient action to address foreign adversary threat 

9 networks operating within or across their platforms, 

10 Congress would have to consider additional safe11 guards for ensuring that this threat is effectively 

12 mitigated. 

13 (c) AUTHORITY TO FACILITATE ESTABLISHMENT OF

14 SOCIAL MEDIA DATA ANALYSIS CENTER.— 

15 (1) AUTHORITY.—The Director of National In16 telligence, in coordination with the Secretary of De17 fense, may facilitate, by grant or contract or under
