[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
[H.R. 1255 Introduced in House (IH)]
<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 1255
To amend title 38, United States Code, to extend to Black veterans of
World War II, and surviving spouses and certain direct descendants of
such veterans, eligibility for certain housing loans and educational
assistance administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and for
other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
February 28, 2023
Mr. Moulton (for himself and Mr. Clyburn) introduced the following
bill; which was referred to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title 38, United States Code, to extend to Black veterans of
World War II, and surviving spouses and certain direct descendants of
such veterans, eligibility for certain housing loans and educational
assistance administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and for
other purposes.
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 ``Sgt. Isaac Woodard, Jr. and Sgt.
Joseph H. Maddox GI Bill Restoration Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) African Americans played a pivotal role in the war
effort during World War II, with more than 1,200,000 African
Americans serving in the Armed Forces, and, by 1945,
approximately 1.9 percent of all officers in the Armed Forces
were African Americans.
(2) Following World War II, the Servicemen's Readjustment
Act of 1944 (58 Stat. 284, commonly known as the ``GI Bill'')
offered substantial material benefits to 16,000,000 veterans to
assist them in reintegrating into civil society.
(3) The GI Bill offered a range of economic and educational
benefits administered by the Federal Government through the
Secretary of the Veterans Administration, including monetary
assistance to access higher education, government guarantees
for housing loans, unemployment allowances, and civilian
workforce reentry assistance.
(4) Though the legislative text of the GI Bill was race
neutral, the administration of benefits through national,
State, and local Veterans Administration offices resulted in a
pattern of discrimination against racial minorities, especially
African Americans.
(5) Veterans Administration benefits counselors denied
African Americans access to educational benefits at certain
universities and funneled applicants into industrial and
vocational schools rather than higher education opportunities,
with just 6 percent of African-American veterans of World War
II earning a college degree, compared to 19 percent of White
veterans of World War II.
(6) In administering its housing guaranty program, the
Veterans Administration adopted the Federal Housing
Administration's racial exclusion programs, also known as
redlining, which excluded a significant number of African
Americans from taking full advantage of the housing guaranty
program.
(7) The GI Bill created substantial economic growth and
wealth accumulation for those who could benefit, but
discriminatory administration of the program prevented many
African-American veterans of World War II from enjoying the
full economic prosperity of the post-war period.
SEC. 3. HOUSING LOANS GUARANTEED BY THE SECRETARY OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

CERTAIN DIRECT DESCENDANTS OF SUCH VETERANS.

jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To streamline the employer reporting process and strengthen the

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 ``Commonsense Reporting Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue
Service should work together with other relevant departments
and agencies to identify and implement methods to minimize
compliance burdens on businesses, insurance carriers, and
individuals.
(2) Such collaboration should strike an appropriate balance
between sufficient reporting to enforce the law and protecting
the privacy of individuals.
SEC. 3. VOLUNTARY PROSPECTIVE REPORTING SYSTEM.
(a) In General.--Not later than 1 year after the date of the
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Secretary of
Labor, and the Administrator of the Small Business Administration,
shall develop and implement guidance providing for a prospective
reporting system meeting the requirements of subsection (b). Such
system shall be available for use by employers on a voluntary basis
beginning not later than January 1, 2024.
(b) Requirements.--The system created under subsection (a) shall
include--
(1) voluntary reporting by each participating employer that
offers minimum essential coverage to its full-time employees
and their dependents under an eligible employer-sponsored plan,
not later than 45 days before the first day of the annual open
enrollment period under section 1311(c)(6)(B) of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (42 U.S.C. 18031(c)(6)(B))
for each calendar year, of--
(A) the name and employer identification number for
purposes of section 6056 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 of the employer;
(B) a certification of--
(i) whether coverage meeting the definition
of minimum essential coverage in section
5000A(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
is offered to the full-time employees (within
the meaning of section 4980H of such Code) of
the employer;
(ii) whether such coverage is offered to
part-time employees of the employer;
(iii) whether such coverage is offered to
dependents of employees;
(iv) whether such coverage is offered to
spouses of employees;
(v) whether such coverage meets the minimum
value requirement of section 36B(c)(2)(C)(ii)
of such Code;
(vi) whether such coverage satisfies the
requirements to qualify for one of the
affordability safe harbors promulgated by the
Secretary of the Treasury for purposes of
section 4980H of such Code; and
(vii) whether the employer reasonably
expects to be liable for any shared
responsibility payment under section 4980H of
such Code for such year;
(C) the months during the prospective reporting
period that such coverage is available to individuals
described in clauses (i) through (iv) of subparagraph
(B);
(D) what waiting periods, if any, apply with
respect to such coverage; and

of the employer for entities that employ employees
within the employers control group under subsection

respective missions, and to provide to the Secretary of Health
and Human Services additional information relating to
eligibility determinations for advance payment of the premium
tax credits under section 36B of such Code and the cost-sharing
subsidies under section 1402 of the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act (42 U.S.C. 18071);
(3) a process to allow Exchanges to follow up with
employers in order to obtain additional reasonably necessary
information relating to an employee's eligibility for such
advance payment or such cost-sharing subsidies, and to allow an
employee to receive notification of any problem in verifying
such eligibility; and
(4) a process to allow employers using the system to
provide timely updates to the Federal Marketplace Data Services
Hub regarding any cancellation of coverage or significant
change in coverage for participating employees that would
change the information reported under paragraph (1).
(c) Employer Notification of Employee Enrollment in Exchange
Plans.--Subparagraph (J) of section 1311(d)(4) of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (42 U.S.C. 18031(d)(4)(J)) is

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to carry out a pilot

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 ``Building Credit Access for Veterans

SEC. 2. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS PILOT PROGRAM ON USE OF

(a) Pilot Program Required.--
(1) In general.--Not later than one year after the date of

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 1267
To protect the rights of passengers with disabilities in air
transportation, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
February 28, 2023
Ms. Titus (for herself and Mr. Cohen) introduced the following bill;
which was referred to the Committee on Transportation and
Infrastructure
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To protect the rights of passengers with disabilities in air
transportation, and for other purposes.
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 ``Air Carrier Access Amendments Act of
2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) In 1986, President Ronald Reagan signed the Air Carrier
Access Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-435; 100 Stat. 1080), adding
a provision now codified in section 41705 of title 49, United
States Code (in this section referred to as the ``ACAA''),
prohibiting disability-based discrimination in air
transportation.
(2) Despite the effort, individuals, including veterans,
with disabilities continue to experience significant barriers
to and with traveling by air, such as--
(A) damaged assistive devices;
(B) inaccessible aircraft, lavatories, and
communication media;
(C) delayed assistance;
(D) inappropriate treatment of service animals;
(E) inadequate disability awareness and sensitivity
training; and
(F) a lack of suitable seating accommodations.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) access for individuals with disabilities in air
transportation must move into the 21st century, or individuals
with disabilities will be left behind and unable to compete in
today's job market or enjoy the opportunities available to
other citizens of the United States;
(2) aircraft must accommodate individuals with
disabilities, and air carriers and foreign air carriers must
acquire and maintain aircraft that meet broad accessibility
standards;
(3) the ACAA must be updated to improve access to air
transportation for individuals with disabilities;
(4) legislation is necessary to modernize standards and
requirements that will strengthen accessibility in air
transportation;
(5) the Department of Transportation, in direct
consultation with the Access Board, must promulgate regulations
to ensure that all passengers with disabilities receive--
(A) prompt and effective boarding, deplaning, and
connections between flights;
(B) accommodations, including nonstandard
accommodations, that safely facilitate air travel; and
(C) better access to airport facilities, including
the provision of visually and tactilely accessible
announcements and full and equal access to aural
communications;
(6) legislation is necessary to ensure that individuals
with disabilities have adequate remedies available when air
carriers and foreign air carriers violate the ACAA; and
(7) unlike other civil rights statutes, the ACAA does not
contain a private right of action, which is critical to the
enforcement of such statutes, and Congress must correct this

foreign air carrier, unless the air carrier or foreign
air carrier can demonstrate that such criteria are
necessary for the provision of the good, service,
facility, privilege, advantage, accommodation, or other
opportunity;

disability or disabilities of the individual or class,
with a good, service, facility, privilege, advantage,
accommodation, or other opportunity that is different
or separate from the good, service, facility,
privilege, advantage, accommodation, or other
opportunity provided to other individuals if doing so
is necessary to--
``(i) provide the individual or class of
individuals with a good, service, facility,
privilege, advantage, accommodation, or other
opportunity that is as effective as the good,
service, facility, privilege, advantage,
accommodation, or other opportunity provided to
other individuals; or
``(ii) comply with statutory, regulatory,

or procedures, when such modifications are necessary to afford

alter the nature of the goods, services, facilities,
privileges, advantages, accommodations, or other opportunities;
and
``(3) take such measures as may be necessary to ensure that
no individual with a disability is excluded, denied services,
segregated, or otherwise treated differently from other
individuals because of the absence of auxiliary aids or
services, unless the air carrier or foreign air carrier can
demonstrate that taking such measures would--
``(A) fundamentally alter the nature of a good,
service, facility, privilege, advantage, accommodation,
or other opportunity being offered; or

or foreign air carrier.
``(d) Consumer Complaints.--

receipt of any complaint of a violation of this
section or a regulation prescribed under this
section, investigate such complaint;

violated this section or a regulation
prescribed under this section, the
determination of the Secretary with respect
to--
``(I) whether the air carrier or
foreign air carrier violated this
section or a regulation prescribed
under this section;

transportation.
For purposes of section 46301, a separate

cause to believe that any air carrier or foreign air
carrier or group of air carriers or foreign air
carriers is engaged in a pattern or practice of
discrimination under this section, or any person or
group of persons has been discriminated against under
this section and such discrimination raises an issue of
general public importance, the Secretary shall, after
the assessment of the civil penalty, refer the matter
to the Attorney General for further action.
``(C) Publication of data.--The Secretary shall
publish disability-related complaint data in a manner
comparable to other aviation consumer complaint data.

The bill also prohibits Members of Congress from having the discretion to determine which of their employees are eligible to enroll through an exchange. Further, the President, Vice President, and executive branch political appointees must also obtain coverage through exchanges, rather than FEHB. The government is prohibited from contributing to or subsidizing the health insurance coverage of the officials and employees subject to this requirement, including Members of Congress and their staff.</p> | <html><body><pre>[Congressional Bills 118th Congress]

position in the executive
branch of the Government of a
confidential or policy-
determining character under
schedule C of subpart C of part

title 5, United States Code, shall be provided
on behalf of an individual who is a Member of
Congress, a congressional staff member, the
President, the Vice President, or a political
appointee for coverage under this paragraph.
``(iv) Limitation on amount of tax credit
or cost sharing.--An individual enrolling in
health insurance coverage pursuant to this
paragraph shall not be eligible to receive a
tax credit under section 36B of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 or reduced cost sharing
under section 1402 of this Act in an amount
that exceeds the total amount for which a
similarly situated individual (who is not so
enrolled) would be entitled to receive under
such sections.
``(v) Limitation on discretion for
designation of staff.--Notwithstanding any
other provision of law, a Member of Congress
shall not have discretion in determinations

for coverage through an Exchange.
``(vi) Clarification.--The terms `small

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no provision of Federal
law shall require, or be construed to require, a medical practitioner
to perform a gender-transition procedure.
SEC. 4. PROHIBITION ON FUNDING FOR CERTAIN STATES.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any State that requires
medical practitioners to perform any gender-transition procedure on an
individual in the State shall be ineligible to receive any Federal
funding from the Department of Health and Human Services.
SEC. 5. DEFINITIONS.
In this Act:
(1) Biological sex.--The term ``biological sex'' means the
genetic classification of an individual as male or female, as
reflected in the organization of the body of such individual
for a reproductive role or capacity, such as through sex
chromosomes, naturally occurring sex hormones, and internal and
external genitalia present at birth, without regard to the
subjective sense of identity of the individual.
(2) Gender-transition procedure.--
(A) In general.--Except as provided in subparagraph
(B), the term ``gender-transition procedure'' means--
(i) the prescription or administration of
puberty-blocking drugs for the purpose of
changing the body of an individual so that it
conforms to the subjective sense of identity of
the individual, in the case such identity is at
odds with the individual's biological sex;
(ii) the prescription or administration of
cross-sex hormones for the purpose of changing
the body of an individual so that it conforms
to the subjective sense of identity of the
individual, in the case such identity is at
odds with the individual's biological sex; or
(iii) a surgery to change the body of an
individual so that it conforms to the
subjective sense of identity of the individual,
in the case such identity is at odds with the
individual's biological sex.
(B) Exception.--The term ``gender-transition
procedure'' does not include--
(i) an intervention described in
subparagraph (A) that is performed on--
(I) an individual with biological
sex characteristics that are inherently
ambiguous, such as those born with 46
XX chromosomes with virilization, 46 XY
chromosomes with undervirilization, or
having both ovarian and testicular
tissue; or
(II) an individual with respect to
whom a physician has determined through
genetic or biochemical testing that the
individual does not have normal sex
chromosome structure, sex steroid
hormone production, or sex steroid
hormone action, for a biological male
or biological female;
(ii) the treatment of any infection,
injury, disease, or disorder that has been
caused or exacerbated by the performance of an
intervention described in subparagraph (A)
without regard to whether the intervention was
performed in accordance with State or Federal
law or whether the intervention is covered by
the private right of action under section 2; or
(iii) any procedure undertaken because the
individual suffers from a physical disorder,
physical injury, or physical illness that
would, as certified by a physician, place the
individual in imminent danger of death or
impairment of major bodily function unless the
procedure is performed.
(3) Medical practitioner.--The term ``medical
practitioner'' means a person who is licensed, certified, or
otherwise authorized by the laws of a State to administer
health care in the ordinary course of the practice of the
person's profession.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 128
To provide for a moratorium on Federal funding to Planned Parenthood
Federation of America, Inc.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 9, 2023
Mrs. Boebert introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To provide for a moratorium on Federal funding to Planned Parenthood
Federation of America, Inc.
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 ``Defund Planned Parenthood Act of
2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) State and county health departments, community health
centers, hospitals, physicians offices, and other entities
currently provide, and will continue to provide, health
services to women. Such health services include relevant
diagnostic laboratory and radiology services, well-child care,
prenatal and postpartum care, immunization, family planning
services (including contraception), cervical and breast cancer
screenings and referrals, and sexually transmitted disease
testing.
(2) Many such entities provide services to all persons,
regardless of the person's ability to pay, and provide services
in medically underserved areas and to medically underserved
populations.
(3) All funds that are no longer available to Planned
Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. and its affiliates and
clinics pursuant to this Act will continue to be made available
to other eligible entities to provide women's health care
services.
(4) Funds authorized to be appropriated, and appropriated,
by section 4 are offset by the funding limitation under section
3(a).
SEC. 3. MORATORIUM ON FEDERAL FUNDING TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD FEDERATION
OF AMERICA, INC.
(a) In General.--For the one-year period beginning on the date of
the enactment of this Act, subject to subsection (b), no funds
authorized or appropriated by Federal law may be made available for any
purpose to Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc., or any
affiliate or clinic of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc.,
unless such entities certify that Planned Parenthood Federation of
America affiliates and clinics will not perform, and will not provide
any funds to any other entity that performs, an abortion during such
period.
(b) Exception.--Subsection (a) shall not apply to an abortion--
(1) if the pregnancy is the result of an act of rape or
incest; or
(2) in the case where a woman suffers from a physical
disorder, physical injury, or physical illness that would, as
certified by a physician, place the woman in danger of death
unless an abortion is performed, including a life-endangering
physical condition caused by or arising from the pregnancy
itself.
(c) Repayment.--The Secretary of Health and Human Services and the
Secretary of Agriculture shall seek repayment of any Federal assistance
received by Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc., or any
affiliate or clinic of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc.,
if it violates the terms of the certification required by subsection
(a) during the period specified in subsection (a).
SEC. 4. FUNDING FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM.
(a) In General.--There is authorized to be appropriated, and
appropriated, $235,000,000 for the community health center program
under section 330 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 254b), in
addition to any other funds made available to such program, for the
period for which the funding limitation under section 3(a) applies.
(b) Limitation.--None of the funds authorized or appropriated
pursuant to subsection (a) may be expended for an abortion other than
as described in section 3(b).
SEC. 5. RULE OF CONSTRUCTION.
Nothing in this Act shall be construed to reduce overall Federal
funding available in support of women's health.

H. R. 1280
To amend the Public Health Service Act to authorize the Secretary of
Health and Human Services to carry out a program of research related to
cerebral palsy, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Cohen (for himself, Mr. Fitzpatrick, and Mr. Cleaver) introduced
the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Public Health Service Act to authorize the Secretary of
Health and Human Services to carry out a program of research related to
cerebral palsy, and for other purposes.
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 ``Cerebral Palsy Research Program
Authorization Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Cerebral palsy is the most common motor disability in
children, affecting more than 1,000,000 Americans, 1 in 345
children, and over 17,000,000 people worldwide.
(2) In the United States, more than 10,000 babies are
diagnosed with cerebral palsy each year.
(3) Cerebral palsy is a broad group of disorders disrupting
a person's ability to move, sit, stand, walk, talk, and use
their hands.
(4) In more than 80 percent of cases, the cause of cerebral
palsy is unknown.
(5) Seventy-five percent of individuals with cerebral palsy
also have 1 or more additional developmental disabilities
including epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, communication
problems, learning and attention disorders, chronic pain,
autism, hearing disorders, and visual impairments or blindness.
(6) Children with cerebral palsy are more likely to die
from the flu and related viruses, including COVID-19, than
children without neurologic disorders.
(7) There is no consensus of best practices for a person
with cerebral palsy at the time of diagnosis or through the
lifespan.
(8) It is estimated that the lifetime care and medical
costs for all people with cerebral palsy who were born in 2000
alone will total more than $13,500,000,000. The loss of
productivity and lost wages of the individual with cerebral
palsy and their family members is more than $35,000,000,000.
(9) There is no known cure for cerebral palsy, and in most
cases, it is not preventable.
SEC. 3. CEREBRAL PALSY RESEARCH.
Title III of the Public Health Service Act is amended by inserting
after section 317C of such Act (42 U.S.C. 247b-4) the following new
section:
``SEC. 317C-1. CEREBRAL PALSY RESEARCH.
``(a) In General.--The Secretary, acting through the Director of
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and in consultation
with other Federal agencies and partners, shall carry out (directly or
through grants or contracts) a program of research related to cerebral
palsy, including--
``(1) research on--
``(A) the most promising avenues of cerebral palsy
diagnosis and treatment;
``(B) factors that may mitigate the prevalence of
cerebral palsy; and
``(C) the health care and societal costs of
cerebral palsy;
``(2) public health surveillance; and
``(3) other research that the Director of the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention determines to be appropriate to
provide education and training for health professionals and the
general public for purposes of diagnosing, treating, and
explaining the causes, prevalence, and lifelong effects of
cerebral palsy.
``(b) Technical Assistance.--The Secretary may (directly or through
grants or contracts) provide technical assistance to public and
nonprofit private entities in furtherance of research under this
section.
``(c) Evaluations.--The Secretary shall (directly or through grants
or contracts) provide for the evaluation of activities under subsection
(a) in order to determine the extent to which such activities have been
effective, including evaluation of the effects of such activities on
various demographic populations.
``(d) Authorization of Appropriations.--To carry out this section,
there is authorized to be appropriated $5,000,000 for each of fiscal
years 2024 through 2029.''.

Performance-Based Contract Administrator during the
normal course of business.
``(4) Penalty for failure to uphold standards.--

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To prohibit the use of certain names and likenesses on Government
checks where such use has the potential to constitute self-promotion.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Curb Leaders from Electioneering
with Autographs on National Checks Act'' or as the ``CLEAN Checks
Act''.
SEC. 2. PROHIBITION OF CERTAIN NAMES AND LIKENESSES ON GOVERNMENT
CHECKS.
Any check issued by the Federal Government may not be signed by, or
otherwise bear the name, signature, image, or likeness of, the
President, the Vice President, any elected official or cabinet level
officer of the United States, or any individual who, with respect to
any of the aforementioned individuals, bears any relationship described
in subparagraphs (A) through (G) of section 152(d)(2) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986. The preceding sentence shall not apply with

time equivalent basis, of the taxpayer for the
preceding taxable year,

matters as the Secretary may require. The reports required by
this subsection shall be filed at such time and in such manner
as may be required by the Secretary.

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To reimburse the State of Texas for the costs of Operation Lone Star,

United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Lone Star Reimbursement Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The House of Representatives first recognized the
security of our Nation's borders as a matter of national
security in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2022.
(2) Operation Lone Star has led to over 348,000 illegal
immigrant apprehensions and more than 24,000 criminal arrests,
with more than 22,000 felony charges reported.
(3) Operation Lone Star is responsible for the seizure of
over 361 million lethal doses of fentanyl.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that Operation
Lone Star has been a tremendous help to stem the tide of illegal
immigration and its members should be recognized for their efforts.
SEC. 3. REIMBURSEMENT.
Of amounts appropriated or otherwise made available to the
Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security for
fiscal year 2024, $2,200,000,000 from each such Department shall be

SEC. 7. MARKET ACQUISITION OF FED CATTLE.
(a) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that--
(1) all participants in the fed cattle market have a
responsibility to contribute to sufficient levels of negotiated
trade of fed cattle in all cattle feeding regions in order to
achieve competitive bidding and maximum transparency in all
relevant markets and robust price discovery for the benefit of
all market participants;
(2) covered packers that use negotiated market prices or
internal formulations thereof as the basis for formula
marketing arrangements may have incentives to not participate
in price discovery in fed cattle markets, including in order to
influence the price, especially if the majority of the cattle
purchases are under fed cattle formula marketing arrangements
under which it is particularly important to have minimum
participation; and
(3) the Department of Agriculture should examine academic
literature regarding minimum levels of negotiated transactions
necessary to achieve robust price discovery, eliminate the
potential for price manipulation, and enhance cattle producer
leverage in the marketplace in each of the cattle marketing
regions.
(b) Penalties.--Section 253(a) of the Agricultural Marketing Act of
1946 (7 U.S.C. 1636b(a)) is amended--
(1) in paragraph (1)--
(A) by striking the paragraph designation and
heading and all that follows through ``Any packer'' and
inserting the following:
``(1) Penalty amount.--
``(A) In general.--Except as provided in
subparagraph (B), any packer''; and
(B) by adding at the end the following:
``(B) Mandatory minimum violation.--Any packer or
other person that violates section 259 may be assessed
a civil penalty by the Secretary of not more than
$90,000 for each violation (as adjusted for
inflation).''; and
(2) in paragraph (2)--
(A) by striking ``Each day'' and inserting the
following:
``(A) In general.--Except as provided in
subparagraph (B), each day''; and
(B) by adding at the end the following:
``(B) Mandatory minimum violation.--Each week
during which a violation of section 259 continues shall
be considered to be a separate violation.''.
(c) Mandatory Minimums.--The Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 is
amended--
(1) by redesignating sections 259 and 260 (7 U.S.C. 1636h,
1636i) as sections 260 and 261, respectively; and
(2) by inserting after section 258 (7 U.S.C. 1636g) the
following:
``SEC. 259. MANDATORY MINIMUMS.
``(a) Purpose.--The purpose of this section is to establish
mandatory minimums--
``(1) to enhance price discovery, transparency, and cattle
producer leverage for cattle market participants; and
``(2) to minimize and mitigate conflicts of interest and
other incentives for a covered packer to influence the base
price of formula marketing arrangements for the benefit of the
covered packer through action or inaction in the market in
which the base price is determined.
``(b) Establishment.--
``(1) In general.--Not later than 2 years after the date of
enactment of the Cattle Price Discovery and Transparency Act of
2023, the Secretary shall establish--
``(A) 5 to 7 contiguous regions (referred to in
this section as `covered regions') that--
``(i) together encompass the entire
continental United States; and
``(ii) to the extent practicable,
reasonably reflect similar fed cattle purchase
practices;
``(B) a mandatory minimum--
``(i) for each covered region established
under subparagraph (A); and
``(ii) that shall be applicable with
respect to each processing plant of a covered
packer located in that covered region; and
``(C) a time period within which a covered packer
shall be required to meet the applicable mandatory
minimum, which shall be not less than 1 week but not
more than 30 days.
``(2) Modifications.--The Secretary--
``(A) shall review the mandatory minimums
established under paragraph (1) not later than 2 years
after the date of establishment and periodically
thereafter, but not less frequently than once every 5
years; and
``(B) modify any such mandatory minimum, as
necessary, after consulting with representatives of the
United States cattle and beef industry and in
accordance with paragraph (4).
``(3) Public input.--In carrying out this subsection, the
Secretary shall make all proposed mandatory minimums subject to
notice and comment rulemaking and a cost-benefit analysis.
``(4) Considerations.--In establishing or modifying
mandatory minimums under this subsection for any covered
region, the Secretary shall consider the following factors:
``(A) The number of covered packers in the covered
region.
``(B) The availability of fed cattle in the covered
region.
``(C) Pre-existing contractual arrangements of
packers in the covered region.
``(D) The number of pricing transactions (pens of
cattle sold) in the covered region.
``(E) The proportion of fed cattle purchased in the
covered region through negotiated purchases or
negotiated grid purchases relative to the number of
formula marketing arrangements that use the negotiated
prices or negotiated grid prices as base prices.
``(5) Initial mandatory minimum requirement.--The initial
mandatory minimum established under paragraph (1)(B) for each
covered region shall be--
``(A) not less than the average percentage of
negotiated purchases and negotiated grid purchases made
in that covered region between January 1, 2020, and
January 1, 2022; and
``(B) not more than 50 percent.
``(c) Purchases.--A covered packer shall, with respect to each
processing plant of the covered packer, purchase through an approved
pricing mechanism not less than the percentage of fed cattle required
under the mandatory minimum established under subsection (b) for the
covered region in which the processing plant is located.
``(d) Enforcement.--
``(1) In general.--On establishing mandatory minimums under
subsection (b), the Secretary--
``(A) shall regularly monitor compliance by covered
packers with those mandatory minimums; and
``(B) in the case of noncompliance by a covered
packer in a given period, may allow the covered packer
to remedy the noncompliance by purchasing the
applicable shortfall in the approved pricing mechanism
in 1 or more subsequent periods, subject to paragraph
(2).
``(2) Nonremedy.--The Secretary shall not allow a covered
packer to remedy noncompliance under paragraph (1)(B) if the
covered packer has a pattern or practice of noncompliance, as
determined by the Secretary.
``(e) Effect on Premiums.--Nothing in this section prohibits a
formula marketing arrangement from including a premium in addition to
the base price, including a premium for meat quality, consistency,
breed, production method, branding, or any other value-added effort.''.
SEC. 8. ALTERNATIVE MARKETING ARRANGEMENTS FEASIBILITY REPORT.
Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act,
the Secretary of Agriculture, acting through the Administrator of the
Agricultural Marketing Service, shall publish a report analyzing the
feasibility of alternative marketing arrangements with a base price
tied to the price of boxed beef, which shall include information on--
(1) the benefits and limitations of such alternative
marketing arrangements;
(2) barriers limiting adoption of such alternative
marketing arrangements;
(3) potential educational needs relating to the use of such
alternative marketing arrangements for industry participants;
and
(4) risk management needs to increase the adoption and
facilitate the ongoing delivery of benefits of such alternative
marketing arrangements to industry participants.
SEC. 9. MODIFICATIONS TO LIVESTOCK MANDATORY REPORTING REGIONS.
Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, the
Secretary of Agriculture, acting through the Administrator of the
Agricultural Marketing Service, shall realign the livestock mandatory
reporting regions established pursuant to subtitle B of the
Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1635 et seq.) by--
(1) modifying the existing Colorado cattle reporting region

the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall
within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require that any debt limit increase or suspension be balanced by
equal spending cuts over the next decade.
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 ``Dollar-for-Dollar Deficit Reduction
Act''.
SEC. 2. AMENDMENT TO TITLE 31.
(a) In General.--Subchapter I of chapter 31 of title 31, United
States Code, is amended by inserting after section 3101A the following:
``Sec. 3101B. Debt limit control
``(a) Declaration of a Debt Limit Warning.--
``(1) In general.--In the event of a near breach of the
public debt limit established by section 3101, the Secretary of
the Treasury shall issue a debt limit warning to the Committee
on Finance of the Senate and the Committee on Ways and Means of
the House of Representatives that shall include a determination
as to when extraordinary measures may be necessary in order to
prolong the funding of the United States Government.
``(2) Definitions.--In this subsection:
``(A) Extraordinary measures.--The term
`extraordinary measures' means measures that may be
taken by the Secretary of the Treasury in the event of
a breach of the debt limit by the United States to
prolong the function of the United States Government in
the absence of a debt limit increase.
``(B) Near breach.--The term `near breach' means
the point at which the Secretary of the Treasury
determines that the United States Government will reach
the statutorily prescribed debt limit within 60
calendar days notwithstanding the implementation of
extraordinary measures.
``(b) Presidential Submission of Debt Limit Legislation.--
``(1) Savings recommendations from the president.--Any
formal Presidential request to increase the debt limit under
this section shall include the amount of the proposed debt
limit increase and be accompanied by proposed legislation to
reduce spending over the sum of the current and following 10
years by an amount equal to or greater than the amount of the
requested debt limit increase. Net interest savings may not be
counted towards spending reductions required by this paragraph.
``(2) Calculation.--The spending savings under paragraph
(1) shall be calculated against a budget baseline consistent
with section 257 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit
Control Act of 1985. This baseline shall exclude the
extrapolation of any spending that had been enacted under an
emergency designation.''.
(b) Subchapter Analysis.--The table of sections for chapter 31 of
title 31, United States Code, is amended by inserting after the item
for section 3101A the following:
``3101B. Debt limit control.''.
SEC. 3. CONGRESSIONAL REQUIREMENT TO RESTRAIN SPENDING WHILE RAISING OR
SUSPENDING THE DEBT LIMIT.
(a) In General.--Title III of the Congress and Budget Act of 1974
(2 U.S.C. 631 et seq.) is amended by inserting at the end the
following:
``SEC. 316. DEBT LIMIT INCREASE POINT OF ORDER.
``(a) In General.--
``(1) Point of order.--Except as provided in subsection
(b), it shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of
Representatives to consider any bill, joint resolution,
amendment, motion, or conference report that increases the
statutory debt limit unless the bill contains net spending
reductions of an equal or greater amount over the period of the
current and next 10 fiscal years. Net interest savings may not
be counted towards spending reductions required by this
paragraph.
``(2) Components of net spending reduction.--
``(A) Calculation.--The savings resulting from the
proposed spending reductions under paragraph (1) shall
be calculated by the Congressional Budget Office
against a budget baseline consistent with section 257
of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control
Act of 1985. This baseline shall exclude the
extrapolation of any spending that had been enacted
under an emergency designation.
``(B) Availability.--The Senate and the House of
Representatives may not vote on any bill, joint
resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report
that increases the public debt limit unless the cost
estimate of that measure prepared by the Congressional
Budget Office has been publicly available on the
website of the Congressional Budget Office for at least
24 hours.
``(C) Prohibit timing shifts.--Any provision that
shifts outlays or revenues from within the 10-year
window to outside the window shall not count towards
the budget savings target for purposes of this
subsection.
``(b) Senate Supermajority Waiver and Appeal.--
``(1) Waiver.--In the Senate, subsection (a)(1) may be
waived or suspended only by an affirmative vote of three-fifths
of the Members, duly chosen and sworn.
``(2) Appeal.--An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the
Members of the Senate, duly chosen and sworn, shall be required
to sustain an appeal of the ruling of the Chair on a point of
order raised under subsection (a)(1).
``SEC. 317. DEBT LIMIT SUSPENSION POINT OF ORDER.
``(a) In General.--
``(1) Point of order.--Except as provided in subsection
(b), it shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of
Representatives to consider any bill, joint resolution,
amendment, motion, or conference report that suspends the
statutory debt limit unless the bill contains net spending
reductions over the period of the current and next 10 fiscal
years in an amount that is equal to or greater than the
projected debt amount for the period of the suspension of the
statutory debt limit as determined by the Congressional Budget
Office in accordance with paragraph (3). Net interest savings
may not be counted towards spending reductions required by this
paragraph.
``(2) Components of net spending reduction.--
``(A) Calculation.--The savings resulting from the
proposed spending reductions under paragraph (1) shall
be calculated by the Congressional Budget Office
against a budget baseline consistent with section 257
of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control
Act of 1985. This baseline shall exclude the
extrapolation of any spending that had been enacted
under an emergency designation.
``(B) Availability.--The Senate and the House of
Representatives may not vote on any bill, joint
resolution, amendment, motion, or conference report
that increases the public debt limit unless the cost
estimate of that measure prepared by the Congressional
Budget Office has been publicly available on the
website of the Congressional Budget Office for at least
24 hours.
``(C) Prohibit timing shifts.--Any provision that
shifts outlays or revenues from within the 10-year
window to outside the window shall not count towards
the budget savings target for purposes of this
subsection.
``(3) Calculation of projected debt amount.--For purposes
of paragraph (1), the Congressional Budget Office shall
determine the amount of projected debt for the period for which
the bill, joint resolution, amendment, motion, or conference
report suspends the statutory debt limit by calculating the
difference between--
``(A) the amount the statutory debt is projected to
be on the date on which the suspension of the statutory
debt limit is to end, as determined by the debt
projection of the Congressional Budget Office, and
``(B) the amount of statutory debt as of the date
on which the suspension of the statutory debt limit is
to begin.
``(b) Senate Supermajority Waiver and Appeal.--
``(1) Waiver.--In the Senate, subsection (a)(1) may be
waived or suspended only by an affirmative vote of three-fifths
of the Members, duly chosen and sworn.
``(2) Appeal.--An affirmative vote of three-fifths of the
Members of the Senate, duly chosen and sworn, shall be required
to sustain an appeal of the ruling of the Chair on a point of
order raised under subsection (a)(1).''.
(b) Conforming Amendment.--The table of contents set forth in
section 1(b) of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of
1974 is amended by inserting after section 315 the following:
``Sec. 316. Debt limit increase point of order.
``Sec. 317. Debt limit suspension point of order.''.

of Indian Affairs, personnel background investigations for
applicants for law enforcement positions in the Bureau of

the Secretary may carry out a background investigation,
security clearance determination, or both a background
investigation and a security clearance determination
for an applicant for a law enforcement position in the
Bureau of Indian Affairs.
(B) Use of previous investigations and
determinations.--
(i) In general.--Subject to clause (ii), as
part of the demonstration program established
under paragraph (1), the Secretary, in
adjudicating background investigations for
applicants for law enforcement positions in the
Bureau of Indian Affairs, shall consider
previous background investigations for an
applicant, security clearance determinations
for an applicant, or both background
investigations and security clearance
determinations for an applicant, as the case
may be, that have been conducted by a State or
local government, Indian Tribe, tribal
organization, or the Bureau of Indian Affairs,
within the 5-year period preceding the
application for employment with the Bureau of
Indian Affairs.
(ii) Quality.--The Secretary shall only
consider previous background investigations and
security clearance determinations for an
applicant that have been conducted by a State
or local government, Indian Tribe, or tribal
organization if the Secretary can verify that

determinations, as the case may be, are of a
comparable quality and thoroughness to
investigations and determinations carried out
by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Office of
Personnel Management, or another Federal
agency.
(iii) Additional investigation.--If, as
described in clause (i), the Secretary
considers an existing background investigation,
security clearance determination, or both, as
the case may be, for an applicant that has been
carried out by a State or local government,
Indian Tribe, tribal organization, or the
Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Secretary--
(I) may carry out additional
investigation and examination of the

needed in order to make an appropriate
determination as to the character and
trustworthiness of the applicant before
final adjudication can be made and a
security clearance can be issued; and
(II) shall not initiate a new
background investigation process with
the National Background Investigations
Bureau or other Federal agency unless

process covers a period of time that

this section shall terminate 5 years after the date of the
commencement of the program.

background investigation conducted or adjudicated by the Secretary
pursuant to the demonstration program authorized in subsection (a) that
results in the granting of a security clearance to an applicant for a
law enforcement position in the Bureau of Indian Affairs shall be

prior to the date of the election involved, except that a State
or jurisdiction may begin processing and scanning ballots cast
during in-person early voting for tabulation after such date if

practical, that ballots cast before the date of the election

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title 10, United States Code, to prohibit the Secretary of
Defense from paying or reimbursing expenses relating to abortion
services, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. PROHIBITION ON PAYMENT AND REIMBURSEMENT BY DEPARTMENT OF
DEFENSE OF EXPENSES RELATING TO ABORTION SERVICES.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) consistent with section 1093 of title 10, United States
Code, the Department of Defense may not use any funds for
abortions except where the life of the mother would be
endangered if the fetus were carried to term or in a case in
which the pregnancy is the result of an act of rape or incest;
(2) the Secretary of Defense has no legal authority to
implement any policies in which funds are to be used for such
purpose; and
(3) the Department of Defense Memorandum titled ``Ensuring
Access to Reproductive Health Care'', dated October 20, 2022,
is therefore unlawful and must be rescinded.
(b) Repeal of Memorandum.--
(1) Repeal.--The Department of Defense memorandum titled
``Ensuring Access to Reproductive Health Care'', dated October
20, 2022, shall have no force or effect.
(2) Prohibition on availability of funds to carry out
memorandum.--No funds may be obligated or expended to carry out
the memorandum specified in paragraph (1) or any successor to
such memorandum.
(c) Prohibition.--Section 1093 of title 10, United States Code, is
amended by adding at the end the following new subsection:
``(c) Prohibition on Payment or Reimbursement of Certain Fees.--(1)
The Secretary of Defense may not pay for or reimburse any fees or
expenses, including travel expenses, relating to a health-care
professional gaining a license in a State if the purpose of gaining
such license is to provide abortion services.
``(2) In this subsection:
``(A) The term `health-care professional' means a member of
the armed forces, civilian employee of the Department of
Defense, personal services contractor under section 1091 of
this title, or other individual who provides health care at a
military medical treatment facility.
``(B) The term `license' has the meaning given that term in
section 1094 of this title.''.

established the Warsaw ghetto in October 1940, and unlawfully
confined Jewish civilians to the ghetto in November 1940, with
the population of the ghetto reaching a height of 400,000 Jews.
(6) Life in the Warsaw ghetto was marked by widespread
starvation, disease, physical violence, and deplorable
conditions unsuitable for life, leading to the deaths of 83,000
Jews between 1940 and mid-1942.
(7) In less than two months in 1942, German units deported
about 265,000 Jews from Warsaw to the Treblinka death camp and
killed an additional 35,000 Jews inside the ghetto.
(8) In early 1943, German and SS units intended to deport
the remaining Jewish population of the ghetto to forced labor
camps, but many Jews resisted deportation.
(9) The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising began on April 19, 1943,
when SS and police forces appeared outside the walls of the
Warsaw ghetto with the intent of liquidating the ghetto and
deporting its remaining inhabitants.
(10) Aided in part by arms from the Polish underground and
relying on clandestinely organized Jewish self-defense groups,
the ghetto heroically resisted German forces, mounting an
organized armed resistance against SS and police units and
fighting against impossible odds.
(11) Jews in the ghetto continued to fend off their German
occupiers for almost one month, fighting to the last.
(12) After weeks of resistance, the Germans systematically
destroyed the ghetto, burning buildings and razing city blocks
in an attempt to erase the memory and existence of the Jewish
people.
(13) By May 16, 1943, German forces had suppressed the
uprising and deported the ghetto's surviving inhabitants to
concentration camps and killing centers.
(14) The heroes of the Warsaw ghetto who bravely defended
themselves in the face of unimaginable crimes set an example
for other occupied cities and for other Jewish communities.
(15) In total, over 3,000,000 Polish Jews were murdered by
the Nazis during the Holocaust, with only about 380,000 Polish
Jews still alive in Poland, the Soviet Union, or in
concentration camps by the end of the war.
(16) Genocide involves the erasure and elimination of the
memory and culture of a people, and therefore the United States
must work to preserve the historical record of Jewish people
around the world, many of whom now live in the United States.
(17) Current and future generations benefit from the
preservation and memorialization of their history and culture.
(18) Millions of Jewish people whose ancestors came from
Poland now live in the United States, Israel, and around the
world.
(19) Preservation of the history and culture of Jewish
people in Poland is essential to learning the lessons of
history and ensuring the prosperity of the Jewish people for
future generations.
(20) Museums are an important contributor to the historical
preservation of human memory, providing cultural, education and
civic centers where people can learn about the life and record
of individuals or groups of people from the past.
(21) Museums dedicated to the historical memory of Jewish
people or the struggle for survival of the Jewish people during
the Holocaust play a critical role in preserving the memory of
Jewish people.
(22) The construction of further museums, including the
Warsaw Ghetto Museum, would be a welcoming place for all
visitors who want to better understand the fate of Jews
incarcerated in the Warsaw ghetto.
(23) The POLIN Museum of the History of the Polish Jews is
a central location for Jewish people around the world to learn
about the life, history, and culture of their ancestors.
(24) The POLIN Museum is an important educational hub for
all people to learn about the rich history of Jewish people who
were targeted and heroically fought back against the Nazis in
their attempt to erase the memory of Jewish life in Europe.
(25) The POLIN Museum in Warsaw should be celebrated for
the important role it plays in the preservation of the memory
of Jewish life as it documents the long history of Jewish life
in Poland and Europe both before and after the war, and sits on
the site of the former Warsaw ghetto where so many heroic Jews
fought against the erasure of the memory of the Jewish people.

within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify and reform rules
relating to investigations and whistleblowers, and for other purposes.
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 ``IRS Whistleblower Program
Improvement Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. STANDARD AND SCOPE OF REVIEW OF WHISTLEBLOWER AWARD
DETERMINATION.
(a) In General.--Paragraph (4) of section 7623(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 is amended--
(1) by striking ``appealed to'' and inserting ``reviewed
by''; and
(2) by adding at the end the following: ``Any review by the
Tax Court under the preceding sentence shall be de novo and
shall be based on the administrative record established at the
time of the original determination and any additional newly
discovered or previously unavailable evidence.''.
(b) Conforming Amendment.--The heading of paragraph (4) of section
7623(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by striking
``Appeal'' and inserting ``Review''.
(c) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall
apply to cases under section 7623(b)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 which are pending on, or filed on or after, the date of the
enactment of this Act.
SEC. 3. EXEMPTION FROM SEQUESTRATION.
(a) In General.--Section 255 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985 (2 U.S.C. 905) is amended--
(1) by redesignating subsection (k) as subsection (l); and
(2) by inserting after subsection (j) the following:
``(k) Awards to Whistleblowers.--An award authorized under section
7623 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 shall be exempt from
reduction under any order issued under this part.''.
(b) Applicability.--The amendment made by this section shall apply
to any sequestration order issued under the Balanced Budget and
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (2 U.S.C. 900 et seq.) after
December 31, 2023.
SEC. 4. WHISTLEBLOWER PRIVACY PROTECTIONS.
(a) In General.--Paragraph (6) of section 7623(b) of the Internal

subparagraph:
``(D) Whistleblower anonymity before the tax
court.--Notwithstanding sections 7458 and 7461, the Tax
Court shall grant a whistleblower's request to proceed
anonymously before the Court for all proceedings under
this section absent a finding by the Tax Court that a
heightened societal interest exists for disclosing the
whistleblower's identity, exceeding the normal interest
in knowing a petitioner's identity. Should the Tax
Court find that such a heightened societal interest
exists, such interest shall be balanced against the
potential harm disclosure could cause to the
whistleblower.''.
(b) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall
apply to petitions filed with the Tax Court which are pending on, or
filed on or after, the date of the enactment of this Act.
SEC. 5. MODIFICATION OF IRS WHISTLEBLOWER REPORT.

descriptions of the top tax avoidance schemes, not to exceed 10,
disclosed by whistleblowers during such year),''.
(b) Effective Date.--The amendment made by this section shall apply
to reports the due date for which are after the enactment of this Act.
SEC. 6. INTEREST ON WHISTLEBLOWER AWARDS.
(a) In General.--Section 7623(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 is amended by redesignating paragraphs (5) and (6) as paragraphs
(6) and (7), respectively, and by inserting after paragraph (4) the
following new paragraph:
``(5) Interest.--
``(A) In general.--If the Secretary has not
provided notice to an individual described in paragraph
(1) of a preliminary award recommendation before the
applicable date, the amount of any award under this
subsection shall include interest from such date at the
overpayment rate under section 6621(a).
``(B) Exception.--No interest shall accrue under
this paragraph after the date on which the Secretary
provides notice to the individual of a preliminary
award recommendation.
``(C) Applicable date.--For purposes of this
paragraph, the applicable date is the date that is 12
months after the first date on which--
``(i) all of the proceeds resulting from
actions subject to the award recommendation
have been collected, and
``(ii) either--
``(I) the statutory period for
filing a claim for refund has expired,
or
``(II) the taxpayers subject to the
actions and the Secretary have agreed
with finality to the tax or other
liabilities for the periods at issue,
and either the taxpayers have waived
the right to file a claim for refund or
any claim for refund has been
resolved.''.
(b) Effective Date.--
(1) In general.--The amendments made by this section shall
take effect 180 days after the date of the enactment of this
Act.
(2) Special rule.--In the case of a claim for a

H. R. 1302
To repeal certain impediments to the administration of the firearms
laws.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Ms. Lee of California (for herself, Ms. Bonamici, Mr. Meeks, Mr.
Auchincloss, Ms. Lofgren, Mr. Casten, Mr. Morelle, Mr. Crow, Ms. Titus,
Ms. Norton, Ms. Kamlager-Dove, Mr. Higgins of New York, Mr. Smith of

Ms. Scanlon, Mr. Lynch, Ms. Tlaib, Ms. Kelly of Illinois, Mr. Grijalva,
Mr. Carson, Mr. Blumenauer, and Mr. Frost) introduced the following
bill; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To repeal certain impediments to the administration of the firearms
laws.
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 ``Gun Records Restoration and
Preservation Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds as follows:
(1) The Tiahrt Amendments prevent the collection of
valuable information, and the establishment of effective
policies to prevent illegal guns from being used in crimes.
(2) The Tiahrt Amendments impede enforcement of the gun
laws by requiring most background check records to be destroyed
within 24 hours, and by barring the Federal Government from
requiring annual inventory audits by owners of gun shops.
(3) A 2012 study by researchers at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg
School of Public Health found that the Tiahrt Amendments
dramatically increase gun trafficking to the criminal market.
(4) A 2016 study from the University of Pittsburgh Graduate
School of Public Health found that in 2008, 79 percent of all
guns recovered by police from crime scenes belonged to someone
other than the perpetrator--30 percent had been stolen.
(5) A 2020 analysis from the RAND corporation concluded
that the Tiahrt Amendments limit researchers' access to data
that provide important insights, such as--
(A) how guns flow from States with less restrictive
gun laws to States with more restrictive gun laws;
(B) how prohibited purchasers obtain their
firearms;
(C) the characteristics of straw purchases; and
(D) whether more restrictive gun laws create a
shortage of firearms for prohibited purchases.
(6) Every year, more than 165,000 people are shot in the
United States.
(7) 2020 was one of the deadliest years on record for the
United States, with an estimated 21,000 people killed in
firearm homicides or non-suicide related shootings, which is a
33-percent increase over 2019.
(8) In 2020, 62 percent of firearm homicide victims were
Black and 15 percent of firearm homicide victims were Hispanic.
(9) In 2020, the National Tracing Center at the Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives processed 490,800
trace requests on firearms from Federal, State, and local law
enforcement agencies.
(10) Having effective policies to prevent illegal gun
trafficking makes our families and communities safer.
(11) Repealing the Tiahrt Amendments would support law
enforcement efforts and give the public vital information
needed to craft the most effective policies against illegal
guns.
SEC. 3. REPEAL OF CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON THE USE OF DATABASE
INFORMATION OF THE BUREAU OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, FIREARMS
AND EXPLOSIVES.
(a) The matter under the heading ``Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives--Salaries and Expenses'' in title II of

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Levin (for himself, Mr. Ferguson, Mr. McGovern, and Mr. Amodei)
introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on
Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To direct the Secretary of Health and Human Services, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, to formulate a strategy for the Federal
Government to secure support from foreign countries, multilateral
organizations, and other appropriate entities to facilitate the
development and commercialization of qualified pandemic or epidemic
products, and for other purposes.
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 ``Saving Us from Pandemic Era
Resistance by Building a Unified Global Strategy Act of 2023'' or the
``SUPER BUGS Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. INTERNATIONAL STRATEGY FOR DEVELOPMENT OF QUALIFIED PANDEMIC OR
EPIDEMIC PRODUCTS.
(a) Strategy.--
(1) In general.--Not later than 18 months after the date of
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Health and Human
Services, in consultation with the Secretary of State, shall--
(A) formulate a strategy for the Federal Government
to secure support from foreign countries, multilateral
organizations, and other appropriate entities to
facilitate the development and commercialization of
qualified pandemic or epidemic products, including such
products to address antimicrobial resistant pathogens--
(i) with pandemic potential; or
(ii) that are priority pathogens; and
(B) submit such strategy to the appropriate
committees of Congress.
(2) Contents.--The strategy under paragraph (1) shall--
(A) provide for the process the Federal Government
would use to enter into arrangements with foreign
countries, multilateral organizations, and other
appropriate entities in certain circumstances;
(B) strive to secure equitable contributions among
participating countries, organizations, and entities;
(C) focus on global priorities but allow
participating countries, organizations, and entities to
emphasize national or regional issues of importance;
(D) seek to ensure such arrangements are harmonized
with each other and with other relevant arrangements to
prevent duplication of effort and to efficiently
distribute funds;
(E) provide for collaboration so as to allocate
joint or individual responsibility across participating
countries, organizations, and entities for the
development and commercialization of particular
qualified pandemic or epidemic products, where such
collaboration is spelled out beforehand in such
arrangements;
(F) provide for the stewardship of qualified
pandemic or epidemic products developed pursuant to the
strategy;
(G) define criteria so that scarce funds are
allocated to advance qualified pandemic or epidemic
products that can achieve the greatest positive impact
on human health, including unprecedented approaches to
preventing, treating, and diagnosing infectious
diseases;
(H) consider approaches including securing
contracts with the private sector, entering into
public-private partnerships, implementing alternative
payment models, and streamlining regulatory approval
processes; and
(I) be synchronized with United States pandemic
preparedness priorities, such as the U.S. National
Action Plan for Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria
(CARB).
(b) Arrangements With Foreign Countries and Multilateral
Organizations.--The Secretary of Health and Human Services, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, shall seek to enter into
arrangements with foreign countries, multilateral organizations, and
other appropriate entities to implement the strategy under subsection
(a).
(c) Definition.--In this section:
(1) The term ``priority pathogens'' means pathogens
identified in the latest Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention Antimicrobial Threats Report, the World Health
Organization Global Priority Pathogens List, or a successor
report or list.
(2) The term ``qualified pandemic or epidemic product'' has
the meaning given to such term in section 319F-3 of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247d-6b).

``(vii) the ability of the Administrator to
repay outstanding debt;
``(viii) amounts appropriated to the
Administrator to carry out the national flood

``(ix) reinsurance, capital markets,
catastrophe bonds, collateralized reinsurance,
resilience bonds, and other insurance-linked
securities, and other risk transfer
opportunities; and
``(x) any other factor the Administrator
determines appropriate.
``(D) Multi-year contracts.--Nothing in this
paragraph may be construed to prevent or prohibit the
Administrator from complying with the requirement under
subparagraph (A) regarding ceding risk through
contracts having a duration longer than one year.''.

licensing authority, through an agreement with a State law enforcement
agency or State identification bureau, criminal history record
information to the extent required by a interstate compact, or the
regulations duly promulgated thereunder, for the purpose of conducting
a criminal history background check of individuals seeking a license or

``(b) State Licensing Authority Use of Criminal History Record
Information.--A State licensing authority that is a member of an
interstate compact that requires completion of a criminal history
background check for an individual for the purpose of acting upon a

occupation or profession in a State shall use such information solely
for that purpose and may not share criminal history record information
or any part thereof with the compact's Commission, any other State
entity or licensing authority, or the public.
``(c) Sharing the Fact of Completion of the Criminal History
Background Check Expressly Permitted.--For the purpose of subsection
(b), a State licensing authority informing a compact Commission of the

A BILL
To enhance rulemaking requirements for the Bureau of Consumer Financial
Protection, and for other purposes.
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 ``Transparency in CFPB Cost-Benefit
Analysis Act''.
SEC. 2. TRANSPARENCY IN COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS.
Section 1022(b) of the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010
(12 U.S.C. 5512(b)) is amended by adding at the end the following:
``(5) Additional rulemaking requirements.--
``(A) In general.--Each notice of proposed
rulemaking issued by the Bureau shall be published in
its entirety in the Federal Register and shall
include--
``(i) a statement of the need for the
proposed regulation;
``(ii) an examination of why the Bureau
must undertake the proposed regulation and why
the private market, State, local, or tribal
authorities cannot adequately address the
problem;
``(iii) an examination of whether the
proposed regulation is duplicative,
inconsistent, or incompatible with other
Federal regulations and orders;
``(iv) if the proposed regulation is found
to be duplicative, inconsistent, or
incompatible with other Federal regulations and
orders, a discussion of--
``(I) why the proposed regulation
is justified;
``(II) how the proposed regulation
can coexist with the existing
regulations; and
``(III) how the Bureau plans to
reduce the regulatory burden associated
with the duplicative, inconsistent, or
incompatible proposed regulation;
``(v) a quantitative and qualitative
assessment of all anticipated direct and
indirect costs and benefits of the proposed
regulation, including--
``(I) compliance costs for all
regulated entities, including small
businesses;
``(II) effects on economic
activity, efficiency, competition and
capital formation;
``(III) regulatory and
administrative costs of implementation;
and
``(IV) costs imposed on State,
local and tribal entities;
``(vi) an identification of reasonable
alternatives to the regulation, including
modification of an existing regulation;
``(vii) an analysis of the costs and
benefits, both quantitative and qualitative, of
any alternative identified pursuant to clause
(v);
``(viii) if the Bureau determines the
proposed regulation would increase costs for
small businesses, then the Bureau shall consult
the Office of Advocacy within the Small
Business Administration to determine ways to
minimize the effect of direct and indirect
costs imposed on small businesses by the
proposed regulation;
``(ix) if quantified net benefits of the
proposed action do not outweigh the quantified
net benefits of the alternatives, a
justification of the regulation;
``(x) if quantified benefits identified
pursuant to clause (iv) do not outweigh the
quantified costs of the regulation, a
justification of the regulation;
``(xi) an assessment of how the burden
imposed by the regulation will be distributed;
including whether consumers, or small
businesses will be disproportionately burdened;
and
``(xii) when feasible, and using
appropriate statistical techniques, a
probability distribution of the relevant
outcomes of the proposed regulation.
``(B) Assumptions and studies used.--With respect
to the information required to be included under
subparagraph (A), the Bureau will include--
``(i) a discussion of underlying
assumptions used as a basis for such
information; and
``(ii) a description of any studies or data
used in preparing such information, and whether
such studies were peer-reviewed.''.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 1315
To amend the Public Health Service Act to establish a Prostate Cancer
Coordinating Committee, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Murphy introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Public Health Service Act to establish a Prostate Cancer
Coordinating Committee, and for other purposes.
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 ``Prostate Cancer Community
Assistance, Research and Education Act of 2023'' or the ``PC-CARE
Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed non-skin
cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths
among men in the United States.
(2) Over 3,100,000 men in the United States live with a
prostate cancer diagnosis and it is estimated that in 2023,
288,300 men will be diagnosed with, and more than 34,700 men
will die of, prostate cancer.
(3) Men with at least one close relative who has been
diagnosed with prostate cancer have twice the risk of having
prostate cancer compared to the general population.
(4) At least 12 percent of men with metastatic prostate
cancer have inherited predispositions to the disease and
potentially actionable genomic alterations have been identified
in over 90 percent of men with metastatic castration-resistant
prostate cancer.
(5) Advances in science to identify, test, and treat these
men at increased genetic risk of disease are needed.
(6) African-American men suffer from a prostate cancer
incidence rate that is significantly higher than that of White
men and have more than double the prostate cancer mortality
rate than that of White men.
(7) Research has shown that veterans exposed to herbicides,
such as Agent Orange, are at higher risk for and more likely to
be diagnosed with aggressive forms of prostate cancer.
(8) Screening by a digital rectal examination and a
prostate-specific antigen blood test can detect the disease at
the earlier, more treatable stages.
(9) Men diagnosed with early stage disease have a nearly
100 percent 5-year survival rate but only 30 percent of men
survive more than 5 years if diagnosed with prostate cancer
after the cancer has metastasized.
(10) Early-staged prostate cancer has no symptoms, raising
the importance of early detection and screening.
(11) The Department of Health and Human Services, the
Department of Defense, and the Department of Veterans Affairs
all have a role in providing care for and conducting research
on prostate cancer.
(12) Multiple institutes at the National Institutes of
Health are engaged in prostate cancer care and research,
including the National Cancer Institute, National Institute of
Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, the National Institute
on Minority Health and Health Disparities, and the Clinical
Center.
(13) Additional agencies and offices within the Department
of Health and Human Services conduct activities related to
prostate cancer, including the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services, the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, the Health
Resources and Services Administration, the Office of Minority
Health, and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.
(14) The Department of Defense created the Prostate Cancer
Research Program in 1997 and has funded more than
$2,000,000,000 in prostate cancer research since that time.
(15) Private foundations have provided substantial funding
to the prostate cancer research community for almost three
decades, including support for over 200 cancer centers and
universities.
(16) The Director of the National Institutes of Health has
partnered with private prostate cancer research groups to study
to study biological and nonbiological factors associated with
aggressive prostate cancer in African-American men.
(17) The Secretary of Veterans Affairs has partnered with
private foundations to establish precision oncology program
hubs for prostate cancer.
(18) The Director of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention has partnered with multiple private stakeholder
groups to increase awareness and education around prostate
cancer in the general population and among high-risk groups.
(19) Increased coordination of governmental and
nongovernmental activities can reduce costs and increase
effectiveness of ongoing work.
(20) Joint planning and goal setting across the Government
and private sector can create a pathway toward eliminating
prostate cancer deaths and improving care for millions of men.
SEC. 3. PROSTATE CANCER COORDINATING COMMITTEE.
Part A of title IV of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 281
et seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following:

of this Act, the Secretaries, in partnership with interested
organizations, shall prepare and publish a report that lists the trails
identified under subsection (a), including a summary of public comments
received in accordance with the process developed under subsection (b).
(e) Conflict Avoidance With Other Uses.--The Secretary concerned
shall ensure that each long-distance bike trail or area identified

any prior service of the incumbent shall remit to the Director,
for deposit in the Fund, an amount equal to the sum of--
(A) the difference between--
(i) the total amount of Government
contributions that would have been paid under
section 8334 or 8423 of title 5, United States
Code, if the amendments made by section 2 had
been in effect during the prior service; and
(ii) the total amount of Government
contributions paid under section 8334 or 8423

(B) interest on the amount described in
subparagraph (A)(i), as computed in accordance with--
(i) paragraphs (2) and (3) of section
8334(e) of title 5, United States Code; and
(ii) regulations promulgated by the
Director.
(2) Contributions to be made ratably.--Government

annually) over the 10-year period beginning on the date
described in subsection (a)(5).
(e) Exemption From Mandatory Separation.--Notwithstanding section

period beginning on the date of enactment of this Act.
(f) Regulations.--The Director shall prescribe regulations to carry
out this Act, including regulations for the application of this section

the service of an incumbent who dies before making an election under
subsection (b)(2)), to the extent of any rights that would have been
available to the decedent if still living.
(g) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this section shall be
considered to apply in the case of a reemployed annuitant.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 1323
To amend title 5, United States Code, to provide that for purposes of
computing the annuity of certain law enforcement officers, any hours
worked in excess of the limitation applicable to law enforcement
premium pay shall be included in such computation, and for other
purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Pascrell (for himself, Mr. Bacon, Mr. Fitzpatrick, and Mr.
Connolly) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Oversight and Accountability, and in addition to the
Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined
by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as
fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title 5, United States Code, to provide that for purposes of
computing the annuity of certain law enforcement officers, any hours
worked in excess of the limitation applicable to law enforcement
premium pay shall be included in such computation, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE; FINDINGS.
(a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``LEO Fair
Retirement Act of 2023''.
(b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Federal law enforcement officers are never ``off-
duty''. They are counted on to respond at any time of the day
or night, regardless of their official duty status, to protect
the public safety. Outside of our Nation's Armed Forces, theirs
is the only profession comprised of individuals who are
routinely called upon to put their lives on the line to keep
America safe.
(2) Though the Federal Government may house the largest
variety of occupations of any U.S. employer across its panoply
of agencies and entities, Federal law enforcement is absolutely
unique among them, and the Federal law enforcement officer has
no counterpart in the private sector. It is one of the most
stressful, most dangerous, and most rewarding careers for those
who meet the rigorous requirements of the job.
(3) It was in recognition of the unique nature of the
occupation, and the demanding schedules required of those who
fill its ranks, that Congress established distinct pay and
benefit systems for Federal law enforcement positions. This
includes basic pay, retirement, and even overtime compensation.
(4) Under current law, however, the payment of overtime
compensation is limited, and is only payable to the extent that
the payments do not cause the aggregate of the law enforcement
officer's biweekly or annual pay to exceed the pay caps
established under section 5547 of title 5, United States Code.
This often results in a law enforcement officer working
significant amounts of overtime hours year after year for which
the officer is never compensated.
(5) In light of the continuing homeland and national
security threats facing our Nation, it is in the interest of
the Federal Government to ensure that it can continue to
recruit and retain the highest caliber personnel by allowing
Federal law enforcement officers the opportunity to reclaim
full credit in retirement for overtime hours worked but never
paid.
SEC. 2. COMPUTATION OF ANNUITY FOR HOURS WORKED IN EXCESS OF LAW
ENFORCEMENT PREMIUM PAY LIMITATIONS.
(a) CSRS.--
(1) In general.--Section 8339 of title 5, United States
Code, is amended by adding at the end the following:
``(v)(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this title,
including sections 5545a and 5547, and consistent with the requirements
of paragraph (2), any premium pay described in section 5547(a) that
would have been received by a law enforcement officer but for the
limitation provided in such section shall be included in the average
pay of such officer for purposes of computing the annuity of such
officer under this section.
``(2)(A) Paragraph (1) shall not apply unless the law enforcement
officer makes a lump-sum payment to the Office in the manner prescribed
under this paragraph.
``(B) The officer may--
``(i) not later than 180 days before the date that the
officer's annuity will commence, request from the Office an
estimate (expressed as a dollar figure) of--
``(I) the lump-sum payment described under
subparagraph (C);
``(II) the amount of the officer's monthly annuity
payment if the officer elects to make the lump-sum
payment and receive an amended annuity that includes
the application of paragraph (1); and
``(III) the amount of such officer's monthly
annuity payment if the officer does not make such an
election; and
``(ii) consistent with the requirements of subparagraph
(D), not later than 90 days after receipt of the estimate under
clause (i), irrevocably elect to make the lump-sum payment to
the Office.
``(C) If a law enforcement officer makes an election pursuant to
subparagraph (B)(ii), such officer shall make a lump-sum payment to the
Office equal to the difference between--
``(i) the amount that would have been contributed by the
officer and the employer under section 8334 during the 3
consecutive years used to determine average pay (as described
under section 8331(4)) if the rate of basic pay of the officer
during such period of years included any premium pay described
in section 5547(a) that would have been received by a law
enforcement officer but for the limitation provided in such
section; and
``(ii) the amount that was so contributed during such
period of years.
``(D) The officer may elect an actuarial annuity reduction,
consistent with regulations prescribed by the Office, in lieu of the
lump-sum payment required under subparagraphs (B) and (C).
``(3) In this subsection, the term `law enforcement officer' has
the meaning given the term `qualified public safety employee' in
section 72(t)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.''.
(2) Clarification with respect to annuity limit.--The
limitation provided in section 8339(f) of title 5, United
States Code, shall apply to any annuity calculated pursuant to
subsection (v) of such section (as added by paragraph (1)).
(b) FERS.--Section 8415 of title 5, United States Code, is amended
by adding at the end the following:
``(o)(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this title,
including sections 5545a and 5547, and consistent with the requirements
of paragraph (2), any premium pay described in section 5547(a) that
would have been received by a law enforcement officer but for the
limitation provided in such section shall be included in the average
pay of such officer for purposes of computing the annuity of such
officer under this section.
``(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply unless the law enforcement
officer makes a lump-sum payment to the Office in the same manner as
prescribed under section 8339(v)(2).
``(3) In this subsection, the term `law enforcement officer' has
the meaning given the term `qualified public safety employee' in
section 72(t)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.''.
(c) Application.--The amendments made by subsections (a) and (b)
shall apply to any applicable annuity calculated on or after the date
that is one year after the date of enactment of this Act.
(d) Regulations.--
(1) In general.--Not later than 1 year after the date of
enactment of this Act, the Director of the Office of Personnel
Management shall promulgate regulations to carry out sections
8339(v) and 8415(o) of title 5, United States Code, as added by
subsections (a) and (b).
(2) Lump-sum payment.--Such regulations shall include--
(A) procedures under which any law enforcement
officer covered by such sections may make the lump-sum
payment as described under sections 8339(v)(2) and
8415(o)(2) of title 5, United States Code, as added by
subsections (a) and (b), from amounts within the
officer's Thrift Savings Fund account; and
(B) procedures, promulgated in consultation with
the Thrift Savings Board, under which a transfer may be
made from such account to the Office of Personnel
Management.
(3) Solicitation of payroll information.--Such regulations
shall include--
(A) guidance for agencies employing law enforcement
officers for proper retention of payroll information
required to carry out the amendments made by
subsections (a) and (b), including, for each creditable
year of service, the difference between the amount the
law enforcement officer received in gross compensation
and the amount that would have been received as gross
compensation but for the application of the premium pay
caps in section 5547 of title 5, United States Code;
and
(B) procedures for the Director to solicit
sufficient payroll information from the head of each
applicable agency to provide for the computations
required by the amendments made by this Act.
SEC. 3. ELIGIBILITY FOR AVAILABILITY PAY.
(a) In General.--Section 5545a of title 5, United States Code, is
amended by adding at the end the following:
``(l)(1) The provisions of subsections (a)-(h) providing for
availability pay shall apply to a covered employee. For the purpose of
this section, section 5542(d) of this title, and section 13(a)(16) and
(b)(30) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C. 213(a)(16)
and (b)(30)), a covered employee shall be deemed to be a criminal
investigator as defined in this section.
``(2) In this subsection, the term `covered employee' means--
``(A) a Postal Inspector (referred to in section 1003(c) of
title 39);
``(B) a criminal investigator classified under the GS-1811
series (or any successor series);
``(C) a Federal air marshal;
``(D) a special agent in the Diplomatic Security Service;
``(E) a probation officer (referred to in section 3672 of
title 18); and
``(F) a pretrial services officer (referred to in section
3153 of title 18).''.
(b) Conforming Amendment.--Section 410(b)(11) of title 39, United
States Code, is amended by striking ``section 5520a'' and inserting
``sections 5520a and 5545a''.
SEC. 4. CREDIT FOR CERTAIN LUMP-SUM PAYMENTS OF UNCOMPENSATED LAW
ENFORCEMENT PREMIUM PAY.
(a) In General.--In the case of an individual, there shall be
allowed as a credit against the tax imposed by chapter 1 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 for the taxable year an amount equal to
the sum of the lump-sum payments made by the individual during such
taxable year pursuant to section 8339(v)(2) or 8415(o)(2) of title 5,
United States Code, with respect to an annuity of such individual.
(b) Treated as Non-Refundable Personal Credit.--For purposes of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the credit allowed under subsection (a)
shall be treated as a credit allowed under subpart A of part IV of
subchapter A of chapter 1 of such Code.

``(6) Limitation on deduction by certain high-income
individuals.--
``(A) In general.--In the case of a taxpayer with
adjusted gross income which equals or exceeds $400,000
for any taxable year--
``(i) foreign real property taxes shall not
be taken into account under subsection (a)(1)
(or section 216(a)) for such taxable year, and
``(ii) the aggregate amount of taxes taken
into account under paragraphs (1), (2), and (3)
of subsection (a) and paragraph (5) of this
subsection (and any tax described in any such
paragraph taken into account under section
216(a)(1)) for such taxable year shall not
exceed $60,000.
``(B) Phasedown of limitation based on adjusted
gross income.--The $60,000 amount in subparagraph
(A)(ii) shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the
dollar amount which bears the same ratio to $60,000
as--
``(i) the excess of the taxpayer's adjusted
gross income over $400,000, bears to
``(ii) $600,000.
``(C) Application restricted to certain taxpayers
and taxes.--
``(i) Application to individuals.--
Subparagraph (A) shall only apply to
individuals, estates, and trusts.
``(ii) Exclusion of certain business
taxes.--Subparagraph (A) shall not apply to any
foreign taxes described in subsection (a)(3) or

described in section 212.
``(D) Married individuals filing a separate
return.--In the case of a married individual filing a
separate return, subparagraphs (A) and (B) shall be
applied--

`$400,000' each place it appears,
``(ii) by substituting `$30,000' for
`$60,000' each place it appears, and
``(iii) by substituting `$300,000' for
`$600,000' in subparagraph (B)(ii).
``(E) Estates and trusts.--In the case of an estate
or trust, adjusted gross income shall be determined as
provided in section 67(e).
``(F) Denial of deduction to billionaires.--Unless
the taxpayer has less than $1,000,000,000 ($500,000,000
in the case of a married individual filing a separate
return) in assets as of the close of the taxable year
(and attests to such fact under penalty of perjury at
such time and in such manner as the Secretary may
provide)--
``(i) subparagraph (A) shall be applied--
``(I) by substituting `zero' for
`$400,000', and
``(II) by substituting `zero' for
`$60,000', and
``(ii) subparagraphs (B) and (D) shall not
apply.
For purposes of this subparagraph, the term `assets'
means all property, real or personal, tangible or
intangible, wherever situated (within the meaning of
section 2031) and such property shall be valued in the
same manner as for purposes of part III of subchapter A
of chapter 11.''.

H. R. 1328
To amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to establish

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Ms. Schakowsky (for herself, Mr. Trone, Mr. Veasey, Mr. Bishop of
Georgia, Mr. Panetta, Mr. Sarbanes, Mr. Pocan, Mr. Quigley, Mr. Smith
of Washington, Mr. Ruppersberger, Ms. Bush, Mr. Sessions, Mr. Larson of

Ms. Sewell, Mrs. Hayes, Mr. Kildee, and Ms. Kuster) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to establish
nonvisual accessibility standards for certain devices with digital
interfaces, and for other purposes.
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 ``Medical Device Nonvisual
Accessibility Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Rapid advances in digital technology have led to
increasingly complex user interfaces for everyday products,
such as life-sustaining medical devices and technologies.
(2) Many of these new devices utilize displays that can
only be operated visually and require user interaction with on-
screen menus and other interfaces that are inaccessible to
consumers who are blind or have low-vision.
(3) Medical devices designed for use in the home are being
increasingly utilized to lessen the cost of inpatient care for
consumers.
(4) Devices such as blood pressure monitors, sleep apnea
machines, in-home chemotherapy treatments, and many others
generally lack nonvisual accessibility.
(5) If a medical device is not accessible in a nonvisual
manner, a blind or low-vision individual is unable to use it
privately, independently, and safely.
(6) Many technology companies have incorporated screen
access technology functions, such as text to speech software,
into products developed and sold by such companies.
(7) Screen access technology is not the only mechanism by
which medical devices can be made accessible to blind or low-
vision consumers.
(8) Devices that utilize these mechanisms will be more
user-friendly in general by including multiple methods to
confirm readings and other data, leading to less waste and
fewer mistakes.
(9) Devices can be designed to work with nonvisual access
technology used by individuals who are blind or have low-vision
at little or no extra cost as long as such compatibility is
taken into consideration at the beginning of the design
process.
(10) Consumers who are blind or have low-vision must be
able to operate medical devices in an equally effective and
equally integrated manner and with equivalent ease of use as
consumers without disabilities.
SEC. 3. NONVISUAL ACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS FOR CERTAIN DEVICES.
(a) In General.--Section 501 of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 351) is amended by adding at the end the
following:
``(k)(1) Beginning on the effective date specified in section
515D(d), if it is a covered device, unless the device meets the
nonvisual accessibility standard specified under section 515D or the
Secretary issues a waiver with respect to the device under subparagraph
(2).
``(2) The Secretary may waive the application of subparagraph (1)
with respect to a covered device if, based on clear and convincing
evidence (as determined by the Secretary) provided by the manufacturer
involved, the Secretary determines that the application of such
subparagraph to the device would result in a fundamental alteration to
the nature of the product or an undue hardship for the manufacturer.
``(3) In this paragraph:
``(A) The term `covered device' means a device that--
``(i) is classified under section 513 into class II
or III;
``(ii) is cleared under section 510(k), granted
marketing authorization under section 513(f)(2), or
approved under section 515 after the effective date
specified in section 515D(d);
``(iii) has a user interface; and
``(iv) is not intended solely for use by a health
care provider or in a setting outside the home.
``(B) The term `fundamental alteration' means an alteration
to the nature of a covered device that would render it unusable
or incapable of performing an essential function.
``(C)(i) The term `undue hardship' means an action
requiring significant difficulty or expense, when considered in
light of the factors set forth in clause (ii).
``(ii) In determining whether application of this
subparagraph would impose an undue hardship on a manufacturer
of a covered device, factors to be considered may include--
``(I) the nature and cost of compliance with the
standard under section 515D; and
``(II) the overall financial resources of the
manufacturer of a covered device.
``(D) The term `user interface' means a screen or mobile
application through which a human user interacts or
communicates with the device by inputting or receiving
information.''.
(b) Recognition of Standard.--The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic
Act is amended by inserting after section 515C (as added by Public Law
117-328) the following:
``SEC. 515D. NONVISUAL ACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS FOR CERTAIN DEVICES.
``(a) Standard.--The nonvisual accessibility standard specified in
this section is, with respect to a user interface of a device described
in section 501(k), that the user interface is as effective in allowing
blind or low-vision individuals to access information, engage in
interactions, and enjoy services with the same privacy, independence,
and ease of use as the user interface of the device enables individuals
who do not have low-vision or are not blind.
``(b) Training.--The Secretary shall conduct training to educate
manufacturers of a user interface of a device described in section
501(k) or of a device described in such section on the standards
developed under subsection (a) and how to comply with such standard.
``(c) Stakeholders.--In developing the standard under subsection
(a) and the training to be conducted under subsection (b), the
Secretary shall consult with--
``(1) the Architectural and Transportation Barriers
Compliance Board established under section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973; and
``(2) individuals who are blind or who have low-vision.
``(d) Regulations.--
``(1) In general.--The Secretary shall, in consultation
with the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance
Board referred to in subsection (b)--
``(A) not later than 1 year after the date of the
enactment of this section, issue proposed regulations
to implement the standard specified under subsection
(a); and
``(B) not later than 2 years after the date of the
enactment of this section, publish a final rule with
respect to such proposed regulations.
``(2) Effective date.--The final rule published under
paragraph (1)(B) shall take effect on the date that is 1 year
after the date on which such rule is published.
``(e) Authorization of Appropriations.--There is authorized to be
appropriated to carry out this section $1,500,000 the period of fiscal
years 2024 through 2025.''.

To provide for the loan and lease of defense articles to the Government

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mrs. Steel (for herself, Mr. Panetta, Mr. Crenshaw, Mr. Veasey, Mr.
Wittman, Ms. Strickland, Mr. Fallon, Mr. Golden of Maine, Mrs. Lesko,
Mr. Owens, Mr. Mills, Mr. Mann, and Mr. Lamborn) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To provide for the loan and lease of defense articles to the Government
of Taiwan, and for other purposes.
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 ``Taiwan Democracy Defense Lend-Lease
Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. LOAN AND LEASE OF DEFENSE ARTICLES TO GOVERNMENT OF TAIWAN.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that steps
taken to bolster the security relations between the United States and
Taiwan should include the following:
(1) The increased conduct of relevant joint military
training and bilateral exercises, or multilateral exercises,
with the armed forces of Taiwan.
(2) The prioritization of capacity building in Taiwan, to
ensure the protection of sensitive technology lent or leased to
the Government of Taiwan by the United States Government.
(b) Authority To Lend or Lease Defense Articles to Government of
Taiwan.--
(1) Authority.--Notwithstanding section 503(b)(3) of the
Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (22 U.S.C. 2311(b)(3)) or
section 61 of the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2796), the
President may lend or lease defense articles to the Government
of Taiwan to assist in the bolstering of the defensive
capabilities of such Government or the protection of the
citizen population of Taiwan from potential aggression carried
out by the People's Liberation Army of China against Taiwan
(including through one or more of the means described in
paragraph (2)) if, as a condition of such loan or lease, the
President requires--
(A) the payment by the Government of Taiwan of the
cost of restoring or replacing the defense article, in
the case that the defense article is damaged; and
(B) the payment by the Government of Taiwan of an
amount equal to the replacement cost (less any
depreciation in the value) of the defense article, in
the case that the defense article is lost or destroyed.
(2) Means of aggression by people's liberation army.--The
means described in this paragraph are the following:
(A) The full or partial naval blockade of Taiwan.
(B) An amphibious assault and ground invasion of
Taiwan.
(C) A missile strike (whether conducted alone or as
a part of a broader campaign).
(D) Kinetic or non-kinetic operations against
military targets or critical infrastructure in Taiwan.
(E) A seizure, or attempted seizure, of one or more
of the outlying islands controlled by Taiwan.
(3) Defense services and defense construction services.--
(A) In general.--The President may finance the
procurement of defense services and design and
construction services by the Government of Taiwan in
connection with a loan or lease of a defense article to
such Government under paragraph (1), if, as a condition
of such financing, the President requires that, not
later than 12 years after the date on which the
agreement with the Government of Taiwan for such
financing is signed on behalf of the United States

committed in the area.
``(ii) Additional safety and security
standards.--In addition to the standards under
subparagraph (A), the Secretary shall establish
standards to ensure the safety and security of

committed in the area.
``(ii) Contract requirement.--An assistance
contract for project-based assistance entered

related to security cameras, locks,
lighting, or other security measures.
``(v) Inspections.--When determining

area meets the housing quality standards under
paragraph (8)(A), a public housing agency shall
also determine whether the dwelling unit meets
the standards established under this
subparagraph.
``(vi) Anonymous hotline.--A public housing
agency that provides project-based assistance
under this paragraph with respect to a
structure in a high-crime area shall establish
an anonymous hotline for tenants to report

(2) Conforming amendment.--Section 8(d)(2) of the United
States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437f(d)(2)) is amended
by adding at the end the following:
``(E)(i) Subsection (o)(13)(P) (relating to safety and security
standards for high-crime areas) shall apply to a contract for project-
based assistance under this paragraph and to a public housing agency
that enters into such a contract.
``(ii) When determining whether a structure assisted under this
paragraph that is in a high-crime area, as defined in subsection
(o)(13)(P), meets any applicable housing quality standards, a public
housing agency shall also determine whether the structure meets the
safety and security standards established under that subsection.''.
(c) Deadlines.--
(1) Determination of high-crime areas.--Not later than 90

period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for
consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the
committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify and reform rules
relating to investigations and whistleblowers, and for other purposes.
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 ``IRS Whistleblower Program
Improvement Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. STANDARD AND SCOPE OF REVIEW OF WHISTLEBLOWER AWARD
DETERMINATION.
(a) In General.--Paragraph (4) of section 7623(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 is amended--
(1) by striking ``appealed to'' and inserting ``reviewed
by''; and
(2) by adding at the end the following: ``Any review by the
Tax Court under the preceding sentence shall be de novo and
shall be based on the administrative record established at the
time of the original determination and any additional newly
discovered or previously unavailable evidence.''.
(b) Conforming Amendment.--The heading of paragraph (4) of section
7623(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by striking
``Appeal'' and inserting ``Review''.
(c) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall
apply to cases under section 7623(b)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 which are pending on, or filed on or after, the date of the
enactment of this Act.
SEC. 3. EXEMPTION FROM SEQUESTRATION.
(a) In General.--Section 255 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency
Deficit Control Act of 1985 (2 U.S.C. 905) is amended--
(1) by redesignating subsection (k) as subsection (l); and
(2) by inserting after subsection (j) the following:
``(k) Awards to Whistleblowers.--An award authorized under section
7623 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 shall be exempt from
reduction under any order issued under this part.''.
(b) Applicability.--The amendment made by this section shall apply
to any sequestration order issued under the Balanced Budget and
Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (2 U.S.C. 900 et seq.) after
December 31, 2022.
SEC. 4. WHISTLEBLOWER PRIVACY PROTECTIONS.
(a) In General.--Paragraph (6) of section 7623(b) of the Internal

subparagraph:
``(D) Whistleblower anonymity before the tax
court.--Notwithstanding sections 7458 and 7461, the Tax
Court shall grant a whistleblower's request to proceed
anonymously before the Court for all proceedings under
this section absent a finding by the Tax Court that a
heightened societal interest exists for disclosing the
whistleblower's identity, exceeding the normal interest
in knowing a petitioner's identity. Should the Tax
Court find that such a heightened societal interest
exists, such interest shall be balanced against the
potential harm disclosure could cause to the
whistleblower.''.
(b) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall
apply to petitions filed with the Tax Court which are pending on, or
filed on or after, the date of the enactment of this Act.
SEC. 5. MODIFICATION OF IRS WHISTLEBLOWER REPORT.

(b) Effective Date.-- The amendment made by this section shall
apply to reports the due date for which are after the enactment of this
Act.
SEC. 6. INTEREST ON WHISTLEBLOWER AWARDS.
(a) In General.--Section 7623(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 is amended by redesignating paragraphs (5) and (6) as paragraphs
(6) and (7), respectively, and by inserting after paragraph (4) the
following new paragraph:

applicable date, the amount of any award under this
subsection shall include interest from such date at the
overpayment rate under section 6621(a).
``(B) Exception.--No interest shall accrue under
this paragraph after the date on which the Secretary
provides notice to the individual of a preliminary

filing a claim for refund has expired,
or
``(II) the taxpayers subject to the
actions and the Secretary have agreed
with finality to the tax or other
liabilities for the periods at issue,
and either the taxpayers have waived
the right to file a claim for refund or
any claim for refund has been
resolved.''.
(b) Effective Date.--
(1) In general.--The amendments made by this section shall
take effect 180 days after the date of the enactment of this

grant of market access granted under subsection (c),
authorization granted under subsection (d), or covered
authorization, the manner in which the licensee,
grantee, or entity shall notify the Commission of a
request to submit a modification under subsection
(g)(5);

described in subsection (h)(2)(B)(i)(II);
``(E) for any license granted under subsection
(b)(1), grant of market access granted under subsection

covered authorization to share spectrum, specific
actions taken by such a licensee, grantee, or entity
with a covered authorization, or by any other entity
that is authorized to use such shared spectrum, that

including whether withholding from another such
licensee, grantee, entity with a covered authorization,
or other entity information necessary to coordinate in
good faith that it is technically feasible to make
available to such licensee, grantee, entity with a
covered authorization, or other entity is such an
action;

provide to any other entity with a covered
authorization that was approved in an earlier
processing round; and
``(ii) seek to promote competition,
innovation, and efficient use of spectrum by
entities with covered authorizations, including
by accounting for advancements in technology
capable of managing interference concerns to
the greatest extent possible consistent with
clause (i); and
``(H) for any application or request for
modification described in subsection (n), what
constitutes reportable foreign ownership for purposes
of paragraph (1) of such subsection.

Mr. Balderson (for himself and Ms. Kuster) introduced the following

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To improve Federal coordination with respect to spectrum management,
and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Spectrum Coordination Act''.
SEC. 2. IMPROVING SPECTRUM MANAGEMENT.
Part A of the National Telecommunications and Information

following:
``SEC. 106. IMPROVING SPECTRUM MANAGEMENT.
``(a) Federal Coordination Procedures.--
``(1) Notice.--With respect to each spectrum action, the
Assistant Secretary shall file in the public record with
respect to such spectrum action, not later than the end of the
period for submitting comments to the Commission with respect
to such spectrum action, information (redacted as necessary if
the information is protected from disclosure for a reason
described in paragraph (3)) regarding--
``(A) the date on which the Commission provided to
the Assistant Secretary notice of the spectrum action,
as required under the Memorandum;
``(B) the Federal entities that may be impacted by
the spectrum action;
``(C) the date on which the Assistant Secretary
provided to the Federal entities described in
subparagraph (B) notice of the spectrum action;
``(D) a summary of technical or procedural
concerns, if any, of Federal entities with respect to
the spectrum action; and
``(E) a summary of policy concerns, if any, of the
Assistant Secretary with respect to the spectrum
action.
``(2) Final rule.--If the Commission promulgates a final
rule under section 553 of title 5, United States Code,
involving a spectrum action, the Commission shall prepare, make
available to the public, and publish in the Federal Register
along with the final rule an interagency coordination summary
that describes--
``(A) the date on which the Commission provided to
the Assistant Secretary notice of the spectrum action,
as required under the Memorandum;
``(B) whether concerns were raised under
subparagraph (D) or subparagraph (E) of paragraph (1)
and, if so, the concerns raised; and
``(C) how any such concerns were resolved.
``(3) Rule of construction.--Nothing in this subsection may
be construed to require the disclosure of classified
information, or other information reflecting technical,
procedural, or policy concerns that are exempt from disclosure
under section 552 of title 5, United States Code.
``(b) Memorandum.--
``(1) Memorandum updates.--Not later than 3 years after the
date of the enactment of this section, and not less frequently
than every 4 years thereafter, the Commission and the NTIA
shall update the Memorandum.
``(2) Nature of updates.--In updating the Memorandum under
paragraph (1), the Commission and the NTIA shall ensure that
each update reflects changing technological, procedural, and
policy circumstances, as determined necessary and appropriate
by the Commission and the NTIA.
``(c) Definitions.--In this section:
``(1) Memorandum.--The term `Memorandum' means the
Memorandum of Understanding between the Commission and the NTIA
(relating to increased coordination between Federal spectrum
management agencies to promote the efficient use of the radio
spectrum in the public interest), signed on August 1, 2022, or
any successor memorandum.
``(2) Spectrum action.--The term `spectrum action' means
any proposed action by the Commission to reallocate radio
frequency spectrum that is anticipated to result in a system of
competitive bidding conducted under section 309(j) of the
Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 309(j)) or licensing that
could potentially impact the spectrum operations of a Federal
entity.''.

1st Session
H. R. 1343
To codify the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences and to direct
the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information
to establish an initiative to support the development of emergency
communication and tracking technologies, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 3, 2023
Mr. Carter of Georgia (for himself and Ms. Pettersen) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To codify the Institute for Telecommunication Sciences and to direct
the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information
to establish an initiative to support the development of emergency
communication and tracking technologies, and for other purposes.
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 ``Institute for Telecommunication
Sciences Codification Act'' or the ``ITS Codification Act''.
SEC. 2. INSTITUTE FOR TELECOMMUNICATION SCIENCES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) The test center within the National Telecommunications
and Information Administration (in this subsection referred to
as the ``NTIA'') represents executive branch agencies on
spectrum issues before the Federal Communications Commission.
(2) Understanding radio frequency propagation
characteristics and modeling is a critical component of making
spectrum decisions.
(3) Federal agencies rely on expert engineering studies,
simulations, and analyses to make determinations about how to
make spectrum available for commercial use, including through
system relocations and identifying spectrum sharing
opportunities through the NTIA.
(4) Clearing of Federal spectrum, when feasible, is the
priority action to take to make Federal spectrum available for
commercial uses as required by section 113(j)(1) of the
National Telecommunications and Information Administration
Organization Act (47 U.S.C. 923(j)(1)).
(5) Sharing of Federal spectrum between Federal entities
and commercial entities provides access to Federal spectrum for
commercial uses in circumstances where clearing is not
feasible.
(6) The test center within the NTIA is the Government's
premier expert laboratory for spectrum research activities,
spectrum sharing innovation and testing, spectrum interference
studies, and all activities related to advancing next
generation wireless technologies.
(7) The test center within the NTIA is critical for
undertaking engineering studies and analyses that inform
clearing or sharing opportunities and facilitate policy
decisions to maximize the efficient use of spectrum resources.
(b) Operation of Test Center.--Part A of the National
Telecommunications and Information Administration Organization Act (47
U.S.C. 901 et seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following:
``SEC. 106. INSTITUTE FOR TELECOMMUNICATION SCIENCES.
``(a) Establishment.--
``(1) In general.--Under the authority provided to the
Assistant Secretary under section 103, the Assistant Secretary
shall operate a test center to be known as the Institute for
Telecommunication Sciences (in this section referred to as
`ITS').
``(2) Functions.--
``(A) In general.--In addition to any functions
delegated by the Assistant Secretary under subparagraph
(B), ITS shall serve as the primary laboratory for the
executive branch of the Federal Government to--
``(i) study radio frequency emissions,
including technologies and techniques to
control such emissions and interference caused
by such emissions;
``(ii) determine spectrum propagation
characteristics;
``(iii) conduct tests on technology that
enhances the sharing of electromagnetic
spectrum between Federal and non-Federal users;
``(iv) improve the interference tolerance
of Federal systems operating with, or using,
Federal spectrum;
``(v) promote activities relating to access
to Federal spectrum by non-Federal users and
the sharing of Federal spectrum between Federal
and non-Federal users; and
``(vi) conduct such other activities as
determined necessary by the Assistant
Secretary.
``(B) Additional functions.--The Assistant
Secretary may delegate to ITS any of the functions
assigned to the Assistant Secretary under section
103(b)(1).
``(3) Agreements and transactions.--In carrying out the
functions described in paragraph (2), the Assistant Secretary,
acting through the head of ITS, may enter into agreements as
provided under the following authorities:
``(A) Sections 11 and 12 of the Stevenson-Wydler
Technology Innovation Act of 1980.
``(B) Section 1535 of title 31, United States Code.
``(C) Sections 207 and 209 of title 35, United
States Code.
``(D) Section 103(b)(2) of this Act.
``(E) Section 113(g) of this Act.
``(F) The first undesignated section of Public Law
91-412.
``(G) As authorized in any other Federal statute.
``(4) Federal spectrum defined.--In this subsection, the
term `Federal spectrum' means frequencies assigned on a primary
basis to a Federal entity (as defined in section 113(l)).
``(b) Emergency Communication and Tracking Technologies
Initiative.--
``(1) Establishment.--The Assistant Secretary, acting
through the head of ITS, shall establish an initiative to
support the development of emergency communication and tracking
technologies for use in locating trapped individuals in
confined spaces, such as underground mines, and other shielded
environments, such as high-rise buildings or collapsed
structures, where conventional radio communication is limited.
``(2) Activities.--In order to carry out this subsection,
the Assistant Secretary, acting through the head of ITS, shall
work with private sector entities and the heads of appropriate
Federal agencies, to--
``(A) perform a needs assessment to identify and
evaluate the measurement, technical specifications, and
conformity assessment needs required to improve the
operation and reliability of such emergency
communication and tracking technologies; and
``(B) support the development of technical
specifications and conformance architecture to improve
the operation and reliability of such emergency
communication and tracking technologies.
``(3) Report.--Not later than 18 months after the date of
the enactment of this section, the Assistant Secretary shall
submit to Congress, and make publicly available, a report on
the assessment performed under paragraph (2)(A).''.
