PURPOSES
SEC. 101. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds the following:
(1) Dramatic changes in the geo-political and

these and other changes continues to evolve, the
world remains an unstable and dangerous place.
This uncertainty mandates the need for an on-going
process to establish an appropriate national security
strategy and the forces needed to implement that
strategy.
(4) The centerpiece of the defense strategy of
the Administration, the review of the Department of
Defense conducted by the Secretary of Defense in
1993 known as the ‘‘Bottom Up Review’’, deter-

(A) prepared to fight and win two nearly
simultaneous Major Regional Conflicts;
(B) able to sustain robust overseas pres-

(C) prepared for a variety of regional con-

(D) able to deter and prevent attacks with
weapons of mass destruction against United
States territory and forces and the territory
and forces of our allies.
(5) The Bottom Up Review also recommended
significant reductions in military forces, including
reduction in the number of Navy ships by one-third,
the number of Air Force wings by almost one-half,
and the level of funding for missile defenses by over
50 percent.
(6) The General Accounting Office and the
Congressional Budget Office have estimated that the
