referred to the Committee on Armed Services 
A BILL 
To redesignate the position of the Secretary of the Navy 
as the Secretary of the Navy and Marine Corps.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following:
(1) Since their creation by the Continental Con-
gress, the Navy and Marine Corps have served, 
fought, and sacrificed together to define and defend 
America’s interests around the world. 
(2) That while the Navy and Marine Corps 
have served the nation as distinct military services 
with many outstanding achievements between them, 
they are bound together as a single department by 
the nature of their assigned roles and missions, and 
the environment in which they operate. 
(3) The Navy and Marine Corps are entering a 
new era of greater integration and cooperation, as 
evidenced by recent agreements to further integrate 
Navy and Marine Corps Tactical Aviation, by the 
appointment for the first time of a Marine to be 
Commandant of Midshipmen at the Naval Academy, 
and by the recent decision to allow a Marine to com-
mand a carrier air wing in 2005. 
(4) In addition to increased organizational inte-
gration, the names of many previously distinct Navy 
and Marine Corps institutions and societies now 
bear the name of both, including the Navy/Marine 
Corps Relief Society, Navy/Marine Corps Field in 
Annapolis, and numerous joint Navy/Marine medals 
and ribbons.
(5) In the spirit of the historical, inseparable 
nature of the Navy and Marine Corps team, and the 
ever increasing integration of the two branches, it is 
appropriate that the military department secretary 
charged with advancing the interests of both have a 
title that reflects the names and equal status of 
both. 
SEC. 2. CHANGE IN TITLE OF SECRETARY OF THE NAVY. 
(a) CHANGE IN TITLE.—The position of the Sec-
retary of the Navy is hereby redesignated as the Secretary 
of the Navy and Marine Corps. 
(b) REFERENCES.—Any reference to the Secretary of 
the Navy in any law, regulation, document, record, or 
other paper of the United States shall be considered to 
be a reference to the Secretary of the Navy and Marine 
Corps.

approximately 40,000 women in the U.S. die from 
the disease each year. Breast cancer is the leading 
cause of cancer death for U.S. women between the 
ages of 20 and 59, and the leading cause of cancer 
death for women worldwide. 
(5) A woman in the United States has a 1 in 
8 chance of developing invasive breast cancer in her 
lifetime—this risk was 1 in 11 in 1975. In 2001, a 
new case of breast cancer will be diagnosed every 2 
minutes, and a woman will die from breast cancer 
every 13 minutes. 
(6) All women are at risk for breast cancer. 
About 90 percent of women who develop breast can-
cer do not have a family history of the disease. 
(7) The National Action Plan on Breast Can-
cer, a public-private partnership, has recognized the 
importance of expanding the scope and breadth of 
biomedical, epidemiological, and behavioral research 
activities related to the etiology of breast cancer and 
the role of the environment. 
(8) To date, there has been only a limited re-
search investment to expand the scope or coordinate 
efforts across disciplines or work with the commu-
nity to study the role of the environment in the de-
velopment of breast cancer.
retary of Health and Human Services determines requires 
State legislation (other than legislation appropriating 
funds) in order for the plan to meet the additional require-
ments imposed by the amendments made by this section, 
the State plan shall not be regarded as failing to comply 
with the requirements of such title solely on the basis of 
its failure to meet these additional requirements before the 
first day of the first calendar quarter beginning after the 
close of the first regular session of the State legislature 
that begins after the date of the enactment of this Act. 
For purposes of the previous sentence, in the case of a 
State that has a 2-year legislative session, each year of 
such session shall be deemed to be a separate regular ses-
sion of the State legislature.
