mismatch between even the restrictive Bottom Up
Review force and the Administration defense budget
may be up to anywhere from $65,000,000,000 to
$150,000,000,000.
(7) Since January 1993, presidential budgets
and budget plans have set forth a reduction in de-
fense spending of $156,000,000,000 through fiscal
year 1999.
(8) The fiscal year 1995 budget is the 10th
consecutive year of reductions in real defense spend-
ing and, with the exception of fiscal year 1948, rep-
resents the lowest percentage of gross domestic
product for any defense budget since World War II.
(9) During fiscal year 1995, the number of ac-
tive duty, reserve component, and civilian personnel
of the Department of Defense will be reduced by
182,000, a rate of over 15,000 per month or over
500 per day. The Bureau of Labor Statistics esti-
mates that 1,200,000 defense-related private sector
jobs will be lost by 1997.
(10) Despite severe reductions and shortfalls in
defense funding and force structure, since 1993
United States military forces have been deployed
more often and committed to more peacetime mis-
sions per year than ever before. Most of these mis-
sions involve United Nations peacekeeping and hu-
manitarian efforts. At the end of fiscal year 1994,
over 70,000 United States personnel were serving in
such regions as Iraq, Bosnia, Macedonia, the Adri-
atic Sea, Rwanda, and the Caribbean Sea for mis-
sions involving Haiti and Cuba.
(11) Despite the dramatic increase in the pace
of operations and the diversion of training and exer-
cise funds to cover the costs of unbudgeted contin-
gency operations, the Armed Forces of the United
States remain the most capable, motivated, and ef-
fective military force in the world. The ability to suc-
cessfully deploy and maintain support for the range
of on-going contingency operations demonstrates the
continued quality and professionalism of our troops.
(12) However, persistent indictations of declin-
ing readiness demonstrate that military units are en-
tering the early stage of a long-term systemic readi-
ness problem. This downward readiness trend risks
a return to the ‘‘hollow forces’’ of the 1970s.
(13) At the end of fiscal year 1994, one-third
of the units in the Army contingency force and all
of the forward-deployed and follow-on Army divi-
sions were reporting a reduced state of military
readiness. During fiscal year 1994, training readi-
ness declined for the Navy’s Atlantic and Pacific
fleets. Training funding shortfalls also resulted in a
grounding of Navy and Marine Corps aircraft squad-
rons and cancellation and curtailment of Army
training exercises. Marine and naval personnel are
not maintaining the standard 12- to 18-month res-
pite between six-month deployments away from
home.
(14) The significant increase in deployments in
support of peacekeeping, humanitarian, and contin-
gency operations has placed great personnel tempo
stress on many critical operational units.
(15) A real commitment to equitable compensa-
tion and protection of quality-of-life programs for
servicemembers and their families is an esssential
component to ensuring high personnel morale and
sustaining force readiness. However, as of January
1, 1995, military pay is approximately 12.8 percent
below comparable civilian levels. As a result, it is es-
timated that close to 17,000 junior enlisted person-
nel have to rely on food stamps and the Department
of Defense will soon begin providing supplementary
food benefits to an estimated 11,000 military per-
sonnel and dependents living overseas.
(16) Critical long-term modernization programs
continue to be delayed or cancelled as resources are
diverted to cover short-term personnel and readiness
shortfalls resulting from an underfunded defense
budget and an overextended force, threatening the
technological superiority of future United States
forces.
(17) The fiscal year 1995 defense budget failed
to meet the current force structure goal of 184 mod-
ern long-range bombers, as established in the Bot-
tom-Up Review. Unless this long-range bomber ca-
pability shortfall is addressed promptly, the Nation’s
ability to project force will be undermined and the
existing bomber industrial base may be placed at
risk.
(18) The Administration has initially agreed to
or proposed treaty limitations, or has unilaterally
adopted positions, that prohibit the United States
from testing or deploying effective missile defense
systems.
(19) United Nations assessments to the United
States for peacekeeping missions totaled over
$1,000,000,000 in 1994. The United States is as-
sessed 31.7 percent of annual United Nations costs
for peacekeeping. The next highest contributor,
Japan, only pays 12.5 percent of such costs. The
Department of Defense also incurs hundreds of mil-
lions of dollars in costs every year for United States
military participation in United Nations peacekeep-
ing or humanitarian missions, most of which are not
reimbursed by the United Nations. For fiscal year
1994, these Department of Defense costs totaled
over $1,721,000,000.
(20) Credible and effective collective action on
international security concerns through the United
Nations and regional organizations such as the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization can, in appro-
priate cases, advance world peace, strengthen the
national security of the United States, and foster
more equitable burden-sharing with friends and al-
lies of the United States in military, political, and fi-
nancial terms.
SEC. 102. POLICY.
The Congress is committed to providing adequate re-
sources to protect the national security interests of the
United States, including the resources necessary—
(1) to provide for sufficient forces to meet the
national security strategy of being able to fight and
win two nearly simultaneously major regional con-
flicts;
(2) to provide for sufficient forces to meet the
national security strategy of using forward-deployed
and forward-based forces to promote regional stabil-
ity, deter aggression, improve joint/combined oper-
ations among United States forces and allies, and
ensure timely crisis response;
(3) to provide pay and benefits necessary for
members of the Armed Forces (including members
of the National Guard and Reserve as well as active
duty members) to begin closing the gap between
rates of civilian pay and rates of military pay;
(4) to maintain a high quality-of-life for mili-
tary personnel and their dependents;
(5) to maintain a high level of military readi-
ness and take all necessary steps to avoid a return
to the ‘‘hollow forces’’ of the 1970s;
(6) to fully provide for the necessary mod-
ernization of United States military forces in order
to ensure their technological superiority over any ad-
versary; and
(7) to develop and deploy at the earliest prac-
tical date highly effective national and theater mis-
sile defense systems.
SEC. 103. PURPOSES.
The purposes of this Act are—
(1) to establish an advisory commission to as-
sess United States military needs and address the
problems posed by the continuing downward spiral
of defense spending;
(2) to commit the United States to accelerate
the development and deployment of theater and na-
tional ballistic missile defense capabilities;
(3) to restrict deployment of United States
forces to missions that are in the national security
interest of the United States;
(4) to maintain adequate command and control
by United States personnel of United States forces
participating in United Nations peacekeeping oper-
ations;
(5) to reduce the cost to the United States of
United Nations peacekeeping activities and to press
for reforms in United Nations management prac-
tices; and
(6) to reemphasize the commitment of the
United States to a strong and viable North Atlantic
Treaty Organization.
TITLE 
II—POLICY 
REGARDING
PRIORITY FOR MISSILE DE-
FENSE PROGRAMS
SEC. 201. POLICY.
The following, in the order listed, shall be the policy
of the United States with respect to the priority for devel-
opment and deployment of missile defense programs:
(1) First, ensuring operational readiness of the
Armed Forces and accomplishing programmed mod-
ernization of weapons systems.
(2) Second, as part of such modernization, com-
pleting the development and deployment at the earli-
est practicable date of more effective theater missile
defense (TMD) systems by adequately funding es-
sential theater missile defense programs.
(3) Third, developing as soon as practicable,
subject to the availability of funding, a ground-based
interceptor system capable of destroying ballistic
missiles launched against the United States.
SEC. 202. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THEATER MISSILE DE-
FENSE AND THE ANTI-BALLISTIC MISSILE
(ABM) TREATY.
(a) FINDINGS.—The Congress makes the following
findings:
(1) The United States and its allies face exist-
ing and expanding threats from ballistic missiles ca-
pable of being used as theater weapon systems that
are presently possessed by, being developed by, or
being acquired by a number of countries, including
Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, and North Korea.
(2) Some theater ballistic missiles that are cur-
rently deployed or are being developed (such as the
Chinese CSS–2 missile and the North Korean Taepo
Dong–2 missile) have capabilities equal to or greater
than the capabilities of missiles that were deter-
mined to be strategic missiles more than 20 years
ago under the Strategic Arms Limitation Agreement
I (SALT I) Interim Agreement of 1972 entered into
between the United States and the Soviet Union.
(3) The Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty
was not intended to, and does not, apply to or limit
research, development, testing, or deployment of
missile defense systems, system upgrades, or system
components that are designed to counter modern
theater ballistic missiles, regardless of the capabili-
ties of such missiles, unless those systems, system
upgrades, or system components are tested against
or have demonstrated capabilities to counter modern
strategic ballistic missiles.
(4) It is a national security priority of the
United States to develop and deploy highly effective
theater missile defense systems capable of counter-
ing the existing and expanding threats posed by
modern theater ballistic missiles at the earliest prac-
tical date.
(5) Current United States proposals in the
Standing Consultative Commission (SCC) would
multilateralize the ABM Treaty, making future
amendments or changes to the Treaty more difficult,
and would impose specific design limitations on
United States theater missile defense (TMD) sys-
tems that would significantly compromise the United
States TMD capability.
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of the
Congress that further formal negotiations in the Standing
Consultative Commission (SCC) and any informal discus-
sions or negotiations on either the demarcation between
theater missile defense (TMD) systems and anti-ballistic
missile (ABM) systems, or any other effort that bears on
the 
viability 
of 
the 
ABM 
Treaty, 
including
multilateralization of the treaty, should be suspended until
the One Hundred Fourth Congress has had the oppor-
tunity to review those matters.
SEC. 203. BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE AS A COMPONENT
OF MILITARY READINESS.
(a) USE OF FISCAL YEAR 1996 FUNDS.—Of the total
amount of funds appropriated or otherwise made available
for the Department of Defense for fiscal year 1996, the
amount obligated for national missile defense programs
may exceed the amount made available for national missile
programs for fiscal year 1995.
(b) FINDINGS.—In carrying out program execution of
national missile defense programs using funds appro-
priated for fiscal year 1996, the Secretary of Defense shall
consider the following findings by Congress:
(1) A critical component of military readiness is
whether the Armed Forces are properly sized,
equipped, structured, and ready to carry out as-
signed missions as required by the national military
strategy.
(2) In testimony before the Committee on
Armed Services of the House of Representatives on
February 22, 1994, the Chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff testified that ‘‘modernization is the
key to future readiness and it is the only way to pro-
vide our next generation with an adequate defense’’.
(3) Given the growing ballistic missile threat,
the deployment of affordable, highly effective na-
tional and theater missile defense systems is an es-
sential objective of a defense modernization program
that adequately supports the requirements of the na-
tional military strategy.
(c) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—In light of the findings
in subsection (b), it is the sense of Congress that an effec-
tive national and theater missile defense capability is es-
sential to ensuring that United States Armed Forces are
ready to meet current and expected threats to United
States national security.

Congress (after the date of the enactment of this Act) a
memorandum of legal points and authorities explaining
why the placement of elements of United States Armed
Forces under the command or operational control of a for-
eign national acting on behalf of the United Nations does
not violate the Constitution.

TITLE VI—EXPANSION OF THE
NORTH 
ATLANTIC 
TREATY
ORGANIZATION
SEC. 601. SHORT TITLE.
This title may be cited as the ‘‘NATO Expansion Act
of 1995’’.
SEC. 602. FINDINGS.
The Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Since 1949, the North Atlantic Treaty Or-
ganization (NATO) has helped to guarantee the se-
curity, freedom, and prosperity of the United States
and its partners in the alliance.
(2) NATO has expanded its membership on
three different occasions since its founding in 1949.
(3) The steadfast and sustained commitment of
the member countries of NATO to mutual defense
against the threat of communist domination played
a significant role in precipitating the collapse of the
Iron Curtain and the demise of the Soviet Union.
(4) Although new threats are more geographi-
cally and functionally diverse and less predictable,
they still imperil shared interests of the United
States and its NATO allies.
(5) Western interests must be protected on a
cooperative basis without an undue burden falling
upon the United States.
(6) NATO is the only multilateral organization
that is capable of conducting effective military oper-
ations to protect Western interests.
(7) The valuable experience gained from ongo-
ing military cooperation within NATO was critical to
the success of joint military operations in the 1991
liberation of Kuwait.
(8) NATO is an important diplomatic forum for
discussion of issues of concern to its member states
and for the peaceful resolution of disputes.
(9) Admission of Central and East European
countries that have recently been freed from com-
munist domination to NATO could contribute to
international peace and enhance the security of
those countries.
(10) By joining the Partnership for Peace, a
number of countries have expressed interest in
NATO membership.
(11) The Partnership for Peace program is cre-
ating new political and military ties with countries
in Central and Eastern Europe and provides the
basis for joint action to deal with common security
problems. Active participation in the Partnership for
Peace will also play an important role in the evolu-
tionary process of NATO expansion.
(12) Numerous Central and East European
countries, particularly Poland, Hungary, the Czech
Republic, and Slovakia, have made significant
progress toward establishing democratic institutions,
free market economies, civilian control of their
Armed Forces, police, and intelligence services, and
the rule of law since the fall of their previous com-
munist governments.
SEC. 603. UNITED STATES POLICY.
It should be the policy of the United States—
(1) to continue the Nation’s commitment to an
active leadership role in NATO;
(2) to join with the Nation’s NATO allies to re-
define the role of the alliance in the post-Cold War
world, taking into account—
(A) the fundamentally changed security en-
vironment of Central and Eastern Europe;
(B) the need to assure all countries of the
defensive nature of the alliance and the desire
of its members to work cooperatively with all
former adversaries;
(C) the emerging security threats posed by
the proliferation of nuclear, chemical, and bio-
logical weapons of mass destruction and the
means to deliver them;
(D) the continuing challenges to the inter-
ests of all NATO member countries posed by
unstable and undemocratic regimes harboring
hostile intentions; and
(E) the dependence of the global economy
on a stable energy supply and the free flow of
commerce;
(3) to affirm that NATO military planning
should include joint military operations beyond the
geographic bounds of the alliance under Article 4 of
the North Atlantic Treaty when the shared interests
of the United States and other member countries re-
quire such action to defend vital interests;
(4) to expeditiously pursue joint cooperation
agreements for the acquisition of essential systems
to significantly increase the crisis management capa-
bility of NATO;
(5) that Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic,
and Slovakia should be in a position to further the
principles of the North Atlantic Treaty and to con-
tribute to the security of the North Atlantic area in
the near future, and, in accordance with Article 10
of such Treaty, should be invited to become full
NATO members, provided these countries—
(A) meet appropriate standards, includ-
ing—
(i) shared values and interests;
(ii) democratic governments;
(iii) free market economies;
(iv) civilian control of the military, of
the police, and of the intelligence and other
security services, so that these organiza-
tions do not pose a threat to democratic
institutions, neighboring countries, or the
security of NATO or the United States;
(v) adherence to the rule of law and
to the values, principles, and political com-
mitments set forth in the Helsinki Final
Act and other declarations by the members
of the Organization on Security and Co-
operation in Europe;
(vi) commitment to further the prin-
ciples of NATO and to contribute to the
security of the North Atlantic area;
(vii) commitment and ability to accept
the obligations, responsibilities, and costs
of NATO membership; and
(viii) commitment and ability to im-
plement infrastructure development activi-
ties that will facilitate participation in and
support for NATO military activities; and
(B) remain committed to protecting the
rights of all their citizens and respecting the
territorial integrity of their neighbors;
(6) that the United States, other NATO mem-
ber nations, and NATO itself should furnish appro-
priate assistance to facilitate the transition of Po-
land, Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia to
full NATO membership;
(7) that, when any other European country
emerging from communist domination is in a posi-
tion to further the principles of the North Atlantic
Treaty and to contribute to the security of the
North Atlantic area, it should, in accordance with
