H. R. 1403
To nullify the effect of certain provisions of various Executive orders.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
APRIL 14, 1999
Mr. BARR of Georgia introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on International Relations
A BILL
To nullify the effect of certain provisions of various Executive
orders.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Terrorist Elimination
Act of 1999’’.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds that—
(1) past Presidents have issued Executive or-
ders which severely limit the use of the military
when dealing with potential threats against the
United States of America;
‘‘(2) an offense under State law that would con-
stitute a crime of violence if it occurred within the
special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the
United States.
‘‘(b) EXCEPTION.—
‘‘(1) APPLICATION.—A person who is subject to
the prohibition of subsection (a) whose employment,
livelihood, or safety is dependent on the ability to
possess and use body armor, may file a petition with
the Secretary for an exception to the prohibition of
subsection (a).
‘‘(2) ACTION BY SECRETARY.—Upon receipt of
a petition under paragraph (1), the Secretary may
reduce or eliminate the prohibition of subsection (a),
impose conditions on reduction or elimination of the
prohibition, or otherwise grant relief from the prohi-
bition, as the Secretary determines to be appro-
priate, 
based 
on 
a 
determination 
that 
the
petitioner—
‘‘(A) is likely to use body armor in a safe
and lawful manner; and
‘‘(B) has a reasonable need for such pro-
tection under the circumstances.
(2) these Executive orders limit the swift, sure,
and precise action needed by the United States to
protect our national security;
(3) present strategy allows the military forces
to bomb large targets hoping to eliminate a terrorist
leader, but prevents our country from designing a
limited action which would specifically accomplish
that purpose;
(4) on several occasions the military has been
ordered to use a military strike hoping, in most
cases unsuccessfully, to remove a terrorist leader
who has committed crimes against the United State;
(5) as the threat from terrorism grows, America
must continue to investigate effective ways to com-
bat the menace posed by those who would murder
American citizens simply to make a political point;
and
(6) actions by the United States Government to
remove such persons is a remedy which should be
used sparingly and considered only after all other
reasonable options have failed or are not available;
however, this is an option our country must main-
tain for cases in which international threats cannot
be eliminated by other means.
SEC. 3. NULLIFICATION OF EFFECT OF CERTAIN PROVI-
SIONS OF VARIOUS EXECUTIVE ORDERS.
The following provisions of Executive orders shall
have no further force or effect:
(1) Section 5(g) of Executive Order 11905.
(2) Section 2–305 of Executive Order 12036.
(3) Section 2.11 of Executive Order 12333.
