shall review and amend its guidelines and its policy statements

            (1) ensure that the sentencing guidelines and policy 
        statements reflect Congress' intent that the guidelines and 
        policy statements reflect the serious nature of the offenses 
        described in paragraph (1), the growing incidence of such 
        offenses, and the need for an effective deterrent and

                federal, state or local government; and
