One Hundred Fourth Congress
of the
United States of America
AT THE SECOND SESSION
Begun and held at the City of Washington on Wednesday,
the third day of January, one thousand nine hundred and ninety-six
An Act
To express the sense of the Congress that United States Government agencies
in possession of records about individuals who are alleged to have committed
Nazi war crimes should make these records public.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of
the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds that—
(1) during the 104th Congress, Americans commemorated
the 50th anniversary of the conclusion of the Second World
War and the end of the Holocaust, one of the worst tragedies
in history;
(2) it is important to learn all that we can about this
terrible era so that we can prevent such a catastrophe from
ever happening again;
(3) the cold war is over;
(4) numerous nations, including those of the former Soviet
Union, are making public their files on Nazi war criminals
as well as crimes committed by agencies of their own govern-
ments;
(5) on April 17, 1995, President Clinton signed Executive
Order 12958, which will make available certain previously
classified national security documents that are at least 25
years old;
(6) that Executive Order stated: ‘‘Our democratic principles
require that the American people be informed of the activities
of their Government.’’;
(7) this year marks the 30th anniversary of the passage
of the Freedom of Information Act;
(8) agencies of the United States Government possess
information on individuals who ordered, incited, assisted, or
otherwise participated in Nazi war crimes;
(9) some agencies have routinely denied Freedom of
Information Act requests for information about individuals who
committed Nazi war crimes;
(10) United States Government agencies may have been
in possession of material about the war crimes facilitated by
Kurt Waldheim but did not make this information public;
(11) it is legitimate not to disclose certain material in
Government files if the disclosure would seriously and demon-
strably harm current or future national defense, intelligence,
or foreign relations activities of the United States and if
protection of these matters from disclosure outweighs the public
interest of disclosure;
H. R. 1281—2
(12) the disclosure of most Nazi war crimes information
should not harm United States national interests; and
(13) the Office of Special Investigations of the Department
of Justice is engaged in vital work investigating and expelling
Nazi war criminals from the United States, accordingly, the
records created by these investigations and other actions should
not be disclosed, and the investigations and other actions should
not be interfered with.
SEC. 2. SENSE OF THE CONGRESS.
It is the sense of the Congress that United States Government
agencies in possession of records about individuals who are alleged
to have committed Nazi war crimes should make these records
public.

Vice President of the United States and
President of the Senate.
