‘‘(3) LAND USE RECOMMENDATIONS.—To ob-
tain greater community support for remedial deci-
sions affecting future land use, the President shall
consult with the CWG on a regular basis throughout
the remedy selection process regarding the reason-
ably anticipated future use of land at the facility
and any institutional controls required to assure that
land use determinations remain in effect. The CWG
may offer recommendations on the reasonably antici-
pated future use of land at the facility to the Presi-
dent at any time prior to the selection of a remedy
at the facility. The land use recommendation shall
consider at a minimum future facility waste manage-
ment needs and the criteria in section 121(b)(2).
The President shall not be bound by any rec-
ommendation of the CWG. However, the President
shall give substantial weight to the CWG’s land use

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
JANUARY 5, 2011 
Ms. WOOLSEY submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the 
Committee on Foreign Affairs 
RESOLUTION 
Calling for the adoption of a smart security platform for 
the 21st century. 
Whereas the procurement or development of weapons of mass 
destruction, failed and fragile states, and global insta-
bility represent urgent threats to peace and security in 
the 21st century; 
Whereas the Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Re-
view found that— 
(1) the United States must integrate public diplo-
macy as a core diplomatic mission throughout the De-
partment of State and particularly in regional bureaus; 
(2) the United States must implement a 21st cen-
tury statecraft agenda with particular focus on tech-
nology, women and girls, and community diplomacy; 
(3) the United States must provide personnel with 
communication tools for 21st century engagement;

(4) the United States must integrate women and 
girls’ participation, protection, and outcome into develop-
ment and conflict prevention programs; 
(5) United States diplomacy and development must 
be mutually reinforcing; and 
(6) responding to global challenges requires civilians 
to move beyond the embassy and into the field, carrying 
out programs, and engaging with diverse sectors of the 
population on the ground; 
Whereas former United States national security officials 
Henry Kissinger, Sam Nunn, George Schultz, and Bill 
Perry repeatedly have called for establishing a goal for 
the global elimination of nuclear weapons; 
Whereas the use of military force and preventive military ac-
tion undermine international law and contribute to anti- 
American sentiment; 
Whereas institutions, such as a Department of Peace, could 
provide a platform for the smart security plan; 
Whereas polls find that large majorities of Americans feel 
that the United States puts too much emphasis on mili-
tary force and unilateral action, and there is majority 
support for a shift in the emphasis of United States for-
eign policy in favor of diplomacy, multilateral coopera-
tion, and investments in development programs to ad-
dress the root causes of terrorism; 
Whereas the 2006 National Security Strategy identified de-
velopment, diplomacy, and defense as the three pillars of 
United States security, yet development and diplomacy 
efforts remain underutilized and underfunded; 
Whereas a smart security platform for the 21st century em-
braces international law and cooperation, reduces the

RESOLUTION 
Expressing support for the designation of May as Ehlers-

Whereas Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome represents multiple genetic

Whereas there are 6 major types of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Whereas a network of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome support 
groups can help connect those managing life with the dis-

Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) supports the designation of Ehlers-Danlos 
Syndrome Awareness Month; 
(2) honors those bravely suffering from Ehlers-
