(2) General Jacoby, the Commander of the United States Northern Command, testified before Congress that we should consider that Iran has a capability within the next few years of flight testing ICBM capable technologies and that the Iranians are intent on developing an ICBM . (3) General Kehler, the Commander of the United States Strategic Command, testified before Congress that I am confident that we can defend against a limited attack from Iran, although we are not in the most optimum posture to do that today * * * it doesn’t provide total defense today . (4) General Jacoby also testified before Congress that I would agree that a third site, wherever the decision is to build a third site, would give me better weapons access, increased GBI inventory and allow us the battle space to more optimize our defense against future threats from Iran and North Korea . (5) Section 227 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 ( Public Law 112–239 ; 126 Stat. 1678) directs the Missile Defense Agency— (A) to conduct environmental impact studies for three potential locations for an additional missile defense site capable of protecting the homeland; and (B) to develop a contingency plan in case the President determines to proceed with deployment of such an additional site. (6) According the Missile Defense Agency, the cost to deploy up to 20 ground-based interceptors (GBIs) at a new missile defense site on the East Coast of the United States is approximately $3,000,000,000 and would require approximately 5 to 6 years to complete. (b) Additional missile defense site (1) In general The Missile Defense Agency shall construct and make operational in fiscal year 2018 an additional homeland missile defense site capable of protecting the homeland, designed to complement existing sites in Alaska and California, to deal more effectively with the long-range ballistic missile threat from the Middle East.

Sense of Congress on procurement of capability enhancement II exoatmospheric kill vehicle It is the sense of Congress that the Secretary of Defense should not procure a Capability Enhancement II exoatmospheric kill vehicle for deployment until after the date on which a successful operational flight test of the Capability Enhancement II ground-based interceptor has occurred unless such procurement is for test assets or to maintain a warm line for the industrial base. 240. Sense of Congress on 30th anniversary of the Strategic Defense Initiative (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) President Ronald Reagan in March 1983, in a speech from the oval office, laid the corner stone for a long-term research and development program to begin to achieve our ultimate goal of eliminating the threat posed by strategic nuclear missiles. (2) President Reagan stated, I've become more and more deeply convinced that the human spirit must be capable of rising above dealing with other nations and human beings by threatening their existence * * * What if free people could live secure in the knowledge that their security did not rest upon the threat of instant United States retaliation to deter a Soviet attack, that we could intercept and destroy strategic ballistic missiles before they reached our own soil or that of our allies? . (3) The Strategic Defense Initiative, also known as Star Wars , challenged the nation to accomplish the impossible by moving beyond the obvious possibilities of the day to set the United States and our allies up for success. (4) In 1999, the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (BMDO), National Missile Defense (NMD) prototype interceptor successfully demonstrated “hit-to-kill” technology intercepting a modified Minuteman intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM). (5) Congress passed the National Missile Defense Act of 1999 ( Public Law 106–38 ) (signed by President Clinton), which stated, It is the policy of the United States to deploy, as soon as is technologically possible, an effective National Missile Defense system capable of defending the territory of the United States against limited ballistic missile attack (whether accidental, unauthorized, or deliberate) . (6) On December 13, 2001, President George W. Bush announced I have concluded the ABM treaty hinders our government's ability to develop ways to protect our people from future terrorist or rogue state missile attacks . (7) Russian President Vladimir Putin said the move was not a threat to the security of the Russian Federation . (8) Since 2001, the United States has deployed considerable Missile Defense capability: 30 ground-based interceptors defending the continental U.S. today; 32 Aegis BMD ships; 113 SM–3 IA interceptors; 25 SM–3 IB interceptors; 3 THAAD batteries and 89 interceptors; and 8 AN/TPY–2 forward-based sensors. (9) The United States has partnerships with 22 nations, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), for missile defense cooperation. Likewise, India and South Korea are developing missile defenses and the Russian Federation and People’s Republic of China are also developing and improving missile defenses. (10) Since 2001 when they began development, United States missile defenses have had a test record of 58 of 73 hit-to-kill intercept attempts and have been successful across all programs of the integrated system, including Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD), Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD), Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD), and PATRIOT Advanced Capability–3. (11) In July of 2004, the United States missile defense system was declared operational with limited capability. Since that time, it has offered defense against limited threats to the continental United States. (12) The United States has cooperatively developed with our Israeli allies a number of missile defense systems including Arrow, Arrow 3 and David’s Sling, systems which will protector our Israeli allies and contribute technology and expertise to United States systems. (13) The United States in support of NATO deployed a Patriot missile battery to defend the population and territory of Turkey and provide material support for Article V of the North Atlantic Treaty in the event of spillover from the Syrian civil war and has deployed Phase I of the European Phased Adaptive Approach, which includes a transportable x-band radar array and an on-station AEGIS ballistic missile defense ship armed with Standard Missile 3 block IA missile interceptors. (14) When United States territory, deployed forces and allies were threatened by North Korean ballistic missiles the United States had the operational capability and national will to deploy THAAD units to Guam to provide a defensive shield. (15) The United States continues to work jointly with Japan to improve the Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) which in addition to providing missile defense in the Pacific is also a keystone in the Phased Adaptive Approach for European missile defense. (16) On-going research and development under the auspices of the Missile Defense Agency will continue to expand the technology envelope to deploy a layered missile defense system capable of defending the homeland, our military forces deployed overseas, friendly nations and our allies against all ballistic missiles from launch and orbit to reentry. (17) A credible ballistic missile defense system is critical to the national defense of the United States. (b) Sense of Congress Congress— (1) recognizes the inspiring leadership of President Ronald Reagan to maintain the peace through strength ; (2) recognizes the enduring obligation President as Commander in Chief to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution ; (3) commemorates the vision of President Reagan on the 30th anniversary of the Strategic Defense Initiative; (4) believes that it is imperative that the United States continue fielding a robust missile defense system, including additional ground based interceptors; and (5) commits to supporting continued investments in future missile defense capabilities and emerging technologies such as directed energy and railguns. 241. Readiness of intercontinental ballistic missile force The Secretary of Defense shall preserve each intercontinental ballistic missile silo that contains a deployed missile as of the date of the enactment of this Act in, at minimum, a warm status that enables such silo to— (1) remain a fully functioning element of the interconnected and redundant command and control system of the missile field; and (2) be made fully operational with a deployed missile. 242. Sense of Congress on negotiations affecting the missile defenses of the United States (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) On April 15, 2013, the National Security Advisor to the President, Tom Donilon, conveyed a personal letter from President Obama to the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin. (2) Press reports indicate that in this letter the President proposed, developing a legally-binding agreement on transparency, which would include exchange of information to confirm that our programs do not pose a threat to each other’s deterrence forces, through a so-called executive agreement, for which [the President] does not need to seek the consent of Congress. . (3) The Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia, Sergei Ryabkov, stated in response to the letter that, the proposals of the U.S. side on the issue are quite concrete and are related in a certain way to the discussions our countries had at various levels in the past years. And it cannot be said from this point of view that the offers are decorative and not serious. No, I want to emphasize that we are committing to the seriousness of these proposals but we note their insufficiency. . (4) Press reports indicate that the Secretary of the Russian Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev, conveyed a response to the letter from President Putin. (5) President Obama’s proposed deal with Russian President Putin has been kept secret from Congress and the American people. (6) The Administration has systematically denied Congress information about past offers of United States missile defense concessions to Russia, including written requests from Members of the House of Representatives. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the President should promptly convey to Congress the details of any proposed deals with the Russian Federation concerning the missile defenses or nuclear arms of the United States; and (2) the missile defenses of the United States are central to the defense of the homeland from ballistic missile threats, particularly if nuclear deterrence fails, thus such defenses are not something that the President should continue to trade away for the prospects of nuclear arms reductions with Russia, the People’s Republic of China, or any other foreign country.

Transition of members of the Armed Forces and their families from military to civilian life (a) Findings The Congress finds the following: (1) Members of the Armed Forces and their families make great sacrifices on behalf of the United States, and, when their active duty service is successfully concluded, members deserve the opportunity to also make a successful transition to the civilian labor force. (2) When transitioning from active duty in the Armed Forces to civilian employment, members often face barriers that make it difficult to fully utilize the skills and training they gained during their military service. (3) Members and veterans are too often required to repeat education or training in order to receive industry certifications and State occupational licenses, even though their military training and experience often overlaps with the certification or licensing requirements. (4) When members are transferred from military assignment to military assignment, their spouses often face barriers to transferring their credentials and to securing employment in their new location. (5) More than one million members will make the transition to civilian life in the coming years. (6) The Department of Defense established the Military Credentialing and Licensing Task Force in 2012. (7) The Joining Forces program, a national initiative to mobilize all sectors of society to give members of the Armed Forces and their families the opportunities and support they have earned, will make it easier for members and their families to transfer skills learned while the member was serving in the Armed Forces to civilian employment. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the Federal Government and State governments should make the transition of a member of the Armed Forces and the member's spouse from military to civilian life as seamless as possible by creating opportunities for the member and spouse to earn, while the member is in the Armed Forces, civilian occupational credentials and licenses, with an emphasis on well-paying industries and occupations that have a high demand for skilled workers, including: manufacturing, information technology, transportation and logistics, health care, and emergency medical services; (2) the Federal Government should assist State governments in translating military training and experience into credit towards professional licensure; and (3) State governments should streamline approaches for assessing the equivalency of military training and experience, and accelerate occupational licensing processes for members, veterans, and their spouses. 556.

Sense of Congress regarding the recovery of the remains of certain members of the Armed Forces killed in Thurston Island, Antarctica (a) Findings Congress makes the following findings: (1) Commencing August 26, 1946, though late February 1947 the United States Navy Antarctic Developments Program Task Force 68, codenamed Operation Highjump initiated and undertook the largest ever-to-this-date exploration of the Antarctic continent. (2) The primary mission of the Task Force 68 organized by Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd Jr. USN, (Ret) and led by Rear Admiral Richard H. Cruzen, USN, was to do the following: (A) Establish the Antarctic research base Little America IV. (B) In the defense of the United States of America from possible hostile aggression from abroad—to train personnel test equipment, develop techniques for establishing, maintaining and utilizing air bases on ice, with applicability comparable to interior Greenland, where conditions are similar to those of the Antarctic. (C) Map and photograph a full two-thirds of the Antarctic Continent during the classified, hazardous duty/volunteer-only operation involving 4700 sailors, 23 aircraft and 13 ships including the first submarine the U.S.S. Sennet, and the aircraft carrier the U.S.S. Philippine Sea, brought to the edge of the ice pack to launch (6) Navy ski-equipped, rocket-assisted R4Ds. (D) Consolidate and extend United States sovereignty over the largest practicable area of the Antarctic continent. (E) Determine the feasibility of establishing, maintaining and utilizing bases in the Antarctic and investigating possible base sites. (3) While on a hazardous duty/all volunteer mission vital to the interests of National Security and while over the eastern Antarctica coastline known as the Phantom Coast, the PBM–5 Martin Mariner Flying Boat George 1 entered a whiteout over Thurston Island. As the pilot attempted to climb, the aircraft grazed the glacier’s ridgeline and exploded within 5 seconds instantly killing Ensign Maxwell Lopez, Navigator and Wendell Bud Hendersin, Aviation Machinists Mate 1st Class while Frederick Williams, Aviation Radioman 1st Class died several hours later. Six other crewmen survived including the Captain of the George 1’s seaplane tender U.S.S. Pine Island. (4) The bodies of the dead were protected from the desecration of Antarctic scavenging birds (Skuas) by the surviving crew wrapping the bodies and temporarily burying the men under the starboard wing engine nacelle. (5) Rescue requirements of the George–1 survivors forced the abandonment of their crewmates’ bodies. (6) Conditions prior to the departure of Task Force 68 precluded a return to the area to the recover the bodies. (7) For nearly 60 years Navy promised the families that they would recover the men: If the safety, logistical, and operational prerequisites allow a mission in the future, every effort will be made to bring our sailors home. . (8) The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command twice offered to recover the bodies of this crew for Navy. (9) A 2004 NASA ground penetrating radar overflight commissioned by Navy relocated the crash site three miles from its crash position. (10) The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command offered to underwrite the cost of an aerial ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey of the crash site area by NASA. (11) The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command studied the recovery with the recognized recovery authorities and national scientists and determined that the recovery is only medium risk . (12) National Science Foundation and scientists from the University of Texas, Austin, regularly visit the island. (13) The crash site is classified as a perishable site , meaning a glacier that will calve into the Bellingshausen Sea. (14) The National Science Foundation maintains a presence in area—of the Pine Island Glacier. (15) The National Science Foundation Director of Polar Operations will assist and provide assets for the recovery upon the request of Congress. (16) The United States Coast Guard is presently pursuing the recovery of 3 WWII air crewmen from similar circumstances in Greenland. (17) On Memorial Day, May 25, 2009, President Barack Obama declared: * * * the support of our veterans is a sacred trust * * * we need to serve them as they have served us * * * that means bringing home all our POWs and MIAs * * * . (18) The policies and laws of the United States of America require that our armed service personnel be repatriated. (19) The fullest possible accounting of United States fallen military personnel means repatriating living American POWs and MIAs, accounting for, identifying, and recovering the remains of military personnel who were killed in the line of duty, or providing convincing evidence as to why such a repatriation, accounting, identification, or recovery is not possible. (20) It is the responsibility of the Federal Government to return to the United States for proper burial and respect all members of the Armed Forces killed in the line of duty who lie in lost graves. (b) Sense of congress In light of the findings under subsection (a), Congress— (1) reaffirms its support for the recovery and return to the United States, the remains and bodies of all members of the Armed Forces killed in the line of duty, and for the efforts by the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command to recover the remains of members of the Armed Forces from all wars, conflicts and missions; (2) recognizes the courage and sacrifice of all members of the Armed Forces who participated in Operation Highjump and all missions vital to the national security of the United States of America; (3) acknowledges the dedicated research and efforts by the US Geological Survey, the National Science Foundation, the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command, the Fallen American Veterans Foundation and all persons and organizations to identify, locate, and advocate for, from their temporary Antarctic grave, the recovery of the well-preserved frozen bodies of Ensign Maxwell Lopez, Naval Aviator, Frederick Williams, Aviation Machinist’s Mate 1ST Class, Wendell Hendersin, Aviation Radioman 1ST Class of the George 1 explosion and crash; and (4) encourages the Department of Defense to review the facts, research and to pursue new efforts to undertake all feasible efforts to recover, identify, and return the well-preserved frozen bodies of the George 1 crew from Antarctica’s Thurston Island. 599.

(3) To develop and sustain required capabilities the Navy must balance investment and maintenance costs across various ship types, including— (A) aircraft carriers; (B) surface combatants; (C) submarines; (D) amphibious assault ships; and (E) other auxiliary vessels, including support vessels operated by the Military Sealift Command. (4) Despite a Marine Corps requirement for 38 amphibious assault ships, the Navy possesses only 30 amphibious assault ships with an average of 22 ships available for surge deployment.

Sense of congress on compliance with nuclear arms control agreements (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) President Obama stated in Prague in April 2009 that Rules must be binding. Violations must be punished. Words must mean something. . (2) President Obama’s Nuclear Posture Review of 2010 stated, it is not enough to detect non-compliance; violators must know that they will face consequences when they are caught. . (3) The July 2010 Verifiability Assessment released by the Department of State on the New START Treaty stated, The costs and risks of Russian cheating or breakout, on the other hand, would likely be very significant. In addition to the financial and international political costs of such an action, any Russian leader considering cheating or breakout from the New START Treaty would have to consider that the United States will retain the ability to upload large numbers of additional nuclear warheads on both bombers and missiles under the New START, which would provide the ability for a timely and very significant U.S. response. . (4) Subsection (a) of the Resolution of Advice and Consent to Ratification of the New START Treaty of the Senate, agreed to on December 22, 2010, listed conditions of the Senate to the ratification of the New START Treaty that are binding upon the President, including the condition under paragraph (1)(B) of such subsection that requires the President to take certain actions in response to actions by the Russian Federation that are in violation of or inconsistent with such treaty, including to seek on an urgent basis a meeting with the Russian Federation at the highest diplomatic level with the objective of bringing the Russian Federation into full compliance with its obligations under the New START Treaty . (5) The Obama Administration demonstrated that violations of treaty obligations by other parties require corresponding action by the United States when, on November 22, 2011, the Department of State announced that the United States would cease carrying out certain obligations under the Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty with regard to Russia. This announcement in the CFE Treaty’s implementation group comes after the United States and NATO Allies have tried over the past 4 years to find a diplomatic solution following Russia’s decision in 2007 to cease implementation with respect to all other 29 CFE States. Since then, Russia has refused to accept inspections and ceased to provide information to other CFE Treaty parties on its military forces as required by the Treaty. . (6) On October 17, 2012, the Chairman of the Committee on Armed Services of the House of Representatives and the Chairman of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House of Representatives wrote a classified letter to the President stating their concerns about a major arms control violation by the Russian Federation. (7) The Chairmen followed up their classified letter with unclassified letters on February 14 and April 12, 2013—in their latest letter, the Chairmen stated that they expect the Administration to directly confront the Russian violations and circumventions of this and other treaties…[we] further ask, again, for your engagement in correcting this behavior. We also seek your commitment not to undertake further reductions to the U.S. nuclear deterrent or extended deterrent until this Russian behavior is corrected. We are in full agreement with your policy as you articulated it in Prague four years ago this month, rules must be binding, Violations must be punished. Words must mean something. . (b) Sense of congress It is the sense of Congress that the President should consider not seeking to further limit or reduce the nuclear forces of the United States, including by negotiation, with a foreign country that remains in active noncompliance with existing nuclear arms obligations, such as the Russian Federation. (c) Obligations of the president in the event of noncompliance If the President determines that a foreign country is not in compliance with its obligations under a nuclear arms control agreement, treaty, or commitment to which the United States is a party or in which the United States is a participating government, including the Missile Technology Control Regime, the President shall— (1) immediately consult with Congress regarding the implications of such noncompliance for— (A) the viability of such agreement, treaty, or commitment; and (B) the national security interests of the United States and the allies of the United States; (2) submit to Congress a plan concerning the diplomatic strategy of the President to engage such foreign country at the highest diplomatic level with the objective of bringing such country into full compliance with such obligations; and (3) at the earliest date practicable following the submission of the plan under paragraph (2), submit to Congress a report detailing— (A) whether adherence by the United States to such obligation remains in the national security interests of the United States or the allies of the United States; and (B) how the United States will redress the effect of such noncompliance to the national security interests of the United States or such allies. 1056. Retention of capability to redeploy multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (a) Deployment capability The Secretary of the Air Force shall ensure that the Air Force is capable of— (1) deploying multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles to Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missiles, and any ground-based strategic deterrent follow-on to such missiles; and (2) commencing such deployment not later than 270 days after the date on which the President determines such deployment necessary. (b) Warhead capability The Nuclear Weapons Council established by section 179 of title 10, United States Code, shall ensure that— (1) the nuclear weapons stockpile contains a sufficient number of nuclear warheads that are capable of being deployed as multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles with respect to Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missiles, and any ground-based strategic deterrent follow-on to such missiles; and (2) such deployment is capable of being commenced not later than 270 days after the date on which the President determines such deployment necessary. 1057.

(2) In World War I, nearly all National Guardsmen were mobilized into Federal service, and while they represented only 15 percent of the total United States Army, they comprised 40 percent of the American divisions sent to France and sustained 43 percent of the casualties in combat. In World War II, the National Guard comprised 19 Army divisions and 29 observation squadrons with aircraft assigned to the United States Army Air Forces. (3) On September 11, 2001, the first fighter jets over New York City and Washington, DC, were Air National Guard F–15 and F–16 aircraft from Massachusetts and North Dakota, with over 400 more Air National Guard fighter aircraft on alert by that afternoon. Over 600,000 Air and Army National Guard soldiers and airmen have deployed in the many campaigns since 9/11. (4) Air and Army National Guard soldiers and airmen have been involved in countless domestic response missions, including missions in response to hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and forest fires including the more recent events of Superstorm Sandy and the tornados in Oklahoma. (5) The volunteer National Guard and Reserve have time and again demonstrated their readiness to meet operational requirements through cost-effective means. (b) Sense of congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the Secretary of Defense should make every effort to ensure the Military Reserve and National Guard forces are sustained by a fully manned and fully funded force and that the United States fulfill its longstanding commitment to unyielding readiness in terms of defense; (2) the Secretary of Defense should act with the knowledge that the National Guard and Reserve are critical components to the Armed Forces, particularly as means of preserving combat power during a time of budget austerity; and (3) Congress repudiates proposals to diminish the National Guard or Reserve and affirms the growth of these components as circumstances warrant. 1097. Access of employees of congressional support offices to department of defense facilities (a) Finding Congress finds that Congressional support offices perform a critical role in enabling Congress to carry out its Constitutionally-mandated task of performing oversight of the executive branch. (b) Access in Same Manner as Employees of Defense Committees The Secretary of Defense shall provide employees of any Congressional support office who work on issues related to national security with access to facilities of the Department of Defense in the same manner, and subject to the same terms and conditions, as employees of the Committees on Armed Services of the House of Representatives and Senate. (c) Congressional support offices defined In this section, the term Congressional support office means any of the following: (1) The Congressional Budget Office. (2) The Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress. (3) The Government Accountability Office. 1098. Cost of wars The Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service and the Director of the Bureau of Economic Analysis, shall post on the public Web site of the Department of Defense the costs, including the relevant legacy costs, to each American taxpayer of each of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. 1099. Sense of Congress regarding consideration of foreign languages and cultures in the building of partner capacity It is the sense of Congress that the head of each element of the Department of Defense should take into consideration foreign languages and cultures during the development by such element of the Department of training, tools, and methodologies to engage in military-to-military activities and in the building of partner capacity. 1099A. Sense of Congress regarding preservation of Second Amendment rights of active duty military personnel stationed or residing in the District of Columbia (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. (2) Approximately 40,000 servicemen and women across all branches of the Armed Forces either live in or are stationed on active duty within the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. Unless these individuals are granted a waiver as serving in a law enforcement role, they are subject to the District of Columbia’s onerous and highly restrictive laws on the possession of firearms. (3) Military personnel, despite being extensively trained in the proper and safe use of firearms, are therefore deprived by the laws of the District of Columbia of handguns, rifles, and shotguns that are commonly kept by law-abiding persons throughout the United States for sporting use and for lawful defense of their persons, homes, businesses, and families. (4) The District of Columbia has one of the highest per capita murder rates in the Nation, which may be attributed in part to previous local laws prohibiting possession of firearms by law-abiding persons who would have otherwise been able to defend themselves and their loved ones in their own homes and businesses. (5) The Gun Control Act of 1968 (as amended by the Firearms Owners’ Protection Act) and the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act provide comprehensive Federal regulations applicable in the District of Columbia as elsewhere. In addition, existing District of Columbia criminal laws punish possession and illegal use of firearms by violent criminals and felons. Consequently, there is no need for local laws that only affect and disarm law-abiding citizens. (6) On June 26, 2008, the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of District of Columbia v. Heller held that the Second Amendment protects an individual’s right to possess a firearm for traditionally lawful purposes, and thus ruled that the District of Columbia’s handgun ban and requirements that rifles and shotguns in the home be kept unloaded and disassembled or outfitted with a trigger lock to be unconstitutional. (7) On July 16, 2008, the District of Columbia enacted the Firearms Control Emergency Amendment Act of 2008 (D.C. Act 17–422; 55 DCR 8237), which places onerous restrictions on the ability of law-abiding citizens from possessing firearms, thus violating the spirit by which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in District of Columbia v. Heller . (8) On February 26, 2009, the United States Senate adopted an amendment on a bipartisan vote of 62–36 by Senator John Ensign to S. 160, the District of Columbia House Voting Rights Act of 2009, which would fully restore Second Amendment rights to the citizens of the District of Columbia. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that active duty military personnel who are stationed or residing in the District of Columbia should be permitted to exercise fully their rights under the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States and therefore should be exempt from the District of Columbia’s restrictions on the possession of firearms.

Sense of congress (a) Purpose Expressing the Sense of the House or Representatives that the Special Immigration Visa programs authorized in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 and the Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2009 are critical to the United States national security, and that these programs must be reformed and extended in order to meet the Congressional intent with which they were created. (b) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) Congress created the Special Immigration Visa program for the purposes of protecting and aiding the many brave Iraqis and Afghans whose lives, and the lives of their families, were endangered as a result of their faithful and valuable service to the United States during Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. (2) The Iraq Special Immigrant Visa program is set to expire at the end of fiscal year 2013. (3) The Afghanistan Special Immigrant Visa program is set to expire at the end of fiscal year 2014. (4) Despite the pending expiration of the Special Immigrant Visa programs, many brave Iraqis, Afghans, and their families, continue to face ongoing and serious threats as a result of their employment by or on behalf of the United States Government. (5) Between FY08–FY12, only 22 percent of the available Iraqi SIVs (5,500 visas out of 25,000 visas) have been issued and 12 percent of the available Afghan SIVs (1,051 visas out of 8,500 visas) have been issued. (6) As the Washington Post reported in October 2012, over 5,000 documentarily complete Afghan SIV applications remained in a backlog. (7) The implementation of the Special Immigration Visa programs has been protracted and inefficient. (8) The application and approval process for the Special Immigration Visa program is unnecessarily opaque and difficult to navigate. (9) Applicants in both Iraq and Afghanistan often have effusive recommendations from numerous military personnel, have served the United States war efforts for many years, and have served valiantly, in some instances literally taking a bullet for a United States service member, and yet are denied approval for a Special Immigration Visa with little to no transparency. (10) Overly narrow provisions contained in the Afghan Allies Protection Act of 2009 leave many deserving Afghans and their families in need of United States assistance, but unable to access the Special Immigration Visa program. (11) The United States has a responsibility to follow through on its promise to protect those Iraqis and Afghans who have risked their lives to aid our troops and protect America’s security. (12) The extension and reform of the Iraq and Afghanistan Special Immigrant Visa programs is a matter of national security. (13) The extension and reform of the Afghan Special Immigrant Visa program is essential to the United States mission in Afghanistan. (c) Sense of the House It is the sense of the House of Representatives that the Iraq and Afghanistan Special Immigrant Visa programs should be— (1) reformed by— (A) ensuring applications are processed in a timely, and transparent fashion; (B) providing parity between the two Special Immigrant Visa programs so that Afghan principal applicants, like Iraqi principal applicants, are able to include their spouse, children, siblings, and parents; and (C) expanding eligibility for the Special Immigrant Visa programs to Afghan or Iraqi men and women employed by, or on behalf of, a media or nongovernmental organization headquartered in the United States, or an organization or entity closely associated with the United States mission in Iraq or Afghanistan that has received United States Government funding through an official and documented contract, award, grant, or cooperative agreement; and (2) extended in— (A) Iraq through the year 2018, without authorizing any additional Special Immigrant Visas as authorized in the original statue; and (B) Afghanistan through the year 2018, without authorizing any additional Special Immigrant Visas as authorized in the original statue. C Matters relating to Afghanistan post 2014 1221.

Additional elements in annual report on military power of Iran (a) In general Section 1245(b)(3) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 ( Public Law 111–84 ; 123 Stat. 2542) is amended— (1) in subparagraph (C), by striking and at the end; (2) in subparagraph (D), by striking the period at the end and inserting a semicolon; and (3) by adding at the end the following new subparagraphs: (E) a description of the strategy and structure of the global Iranian Threat Network and an assessment of the capability of such Network and how such Network operates to reinforce Iran’s grand strategy; (F) a description of the gaps in intelligence of the Department of Defense with respect to Iran and a prioritization of those gaps in intelligence by operational need; and (G) an analysis of how sanctions on Iran are effecting its military capability and its ability to export terrorism to proxy groups within its Threat Network. . (b) Effective date The amendments made by this section shall take effect on the date of the enactment of this Act and shall apply with respect to reports required to be submitted under section 1245 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010, as so amended, on or after that date. 1233. Sense of Congress on the defense of the Arabian Gulf (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) In response to U.S. Central Command requirements, the United States Navy has maintained, on average, more than one aircraft carrier in the Arabian Gulf for more than five years. (2) In February 2013, the senior leadership of the Department of Defense elected to reduce the number of aircraft carriers deployed to the Arabian Gulf in light of budget constraints and limitation of the overall carrier force structure to support the two aircraft carrier requirement. (3) In reference to the decision to indefinitely delay the deployment of the USS Harry Truman, CVN 75, and the USS Gettysburg, its cruiser escort, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Martin Dempsey stated, We’re trying to stretch our readiness out by keeping this particular carrier in homeport in our global response force, so if something happens elsewhere in the world, we can respond to it. Had we deployed it and consumed that readiness, we could have created a situation where downstream we wouldn’t have a carrier present in certain parts of the world at all. . (4) Highlighting the risks of having only one aircraft carrier in the region and relying on land-based aircraft, General Dempsey stated, When you have carrier-based aircraft, you have complete autonomy and control over when you use them. When you use land-based aircraft, you often have to have host-nation permission to use them. . (5) Addressing the perception of the United States commitment to the region, General James Mattis, Commander of U.S. Central Command, testified in March 2013, Perhaps the greatest risk to U.S. interests in the region is a perceived lack of an enduring U.S. commitment to collective interests and the security of our regional partners. . He went on to testify that, The drawdown of our forces can be misinterpreted as a lack of attention, a lack of commitment to the region. . (b) Sense of congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) maintaining only one aircraft carrier battle group in the Arabian Gulf constrains United States’ options and could put at risk the ability to have diversified platforms from which to defend the Arabian Gulf and, if necessary, to conduct military operations to prevent Iran from threatening the United States, United States allies, or Iran’s neighbors with nuclear weapons; (2) it is in the interests of the United States to maintain both land-based and sea-based capabilities in the region to project force; (3) land-based locations in the region could restrict United States military options and critically impact the operational capability if required to conduct a defense of the Arabian Gulf because the United States has not finalized bilateral security agreements with key Gulf Cooperation Council countries; (4) as a result of these and other critical limitations associated with maintaining one aircraft carrier battle group in the Arabian Gulf, United States military commanders have expressed concerns about the operational constraints, the increasing uncertainty among United States allies, and the emboldening of potential adversaries such as Iran; (5) regarding the ability of the United States Navy to maintain a two aircraft carrier presence in the Arabian Gulf, the Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Jonathan Greenert, stated, We need 11 carriers to do the job. That’s been pretty clearly written, and that’s underwritten in our defense strategic guidance. . (6) the United States should construct and sufficiently sustain a fleet of at least eleven aircraft carriers and associated battle force ships in order to meet current and future requirements and to support at least a two aircraft carrier battle group presence in the Arabian Gulf, in addition to meeting other operational requirements; and (7) the United States should finalize bilateral agreements with key Gulf Cooperation Council countries that support the Defense of the Arabian Gulf requirements, at the earliest possible date. 1234. Integrated air and missile defense programs at training locations in Southwest Asia Section 544(c)(1) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 ( 22 U.S.C. 2347c(c)(1) ) is amended— (1) in the first sentence, by inserting after programs the following: and integrated air and missile defense programs ; and (2) in the second sentence, by striking post-undergraduate flying and tactical leadership and inserting such . 1235. Statement of Policy on condemning the Government of Iran for its state-sponsored persecution of its Baha’i minority (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) In 1982, 1984, 1988, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996, 2000, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2012, and 2013, Congress declared that it deplored the religious persecution by the Government of Iran of the Baha’i community and would hold the Government of Iran responsible for upholding the rights of all Iranian nationals, including members of the Baha’i faith. (2) The United States Commission on International Religious Freedom 2012 Report stated, The Baha’i community has long been subject to particularly severe religious freedom violations in Iran. Baha’is, who number at least 300,000, are viewed as heretics by Iranian authorities and may face repression on the grounds of apostasy. . (3) The United States Commission on International Religious Freedom 2012 Report stated, Since 1979, Iranian government authorities have killed more than 200 Baha’i leaders in Iran and dismissed more than 10,000 from government and university jobs. . (4) The United States Commission on International Religious Freedom 2012 Report stated, Baha’is may not establish places of worship, schools, or any independent religious associations in Iran. . (5) The United States Commission on International Religious Freedom 2012 Report stated, Baha’is are barred from the military and denied government jobs and pensions as well as the right to inherit property. Their marriages and divorces also are not recognized, and they have difficulty obtaining death certificates. Baha’i cemeteries, holy places, and community properties are often seized or desecrated, and many important religious sites have been destroyed. . (6) The United States Commission on International Religious Freedom 2012 Report stated, The Baha’i community faces severe economic pressure, including denials of jobs in both the public and private sectors and of business licenses. Iranian authorities often pressure employers of Baha’is to dismiss them from employment in the private sector. . (7) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated, The government prohibits Baha’is from teaching and practicing their faith and subjects them to many forms of discrimination that followers of other religions do not face. . (8) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated, According to law, Baha’i blood is considered mobah , meaning it can be spilled with impunity. . (9) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated that members of religious minorities, with the exception of Baha’is, can serve in lower ranks of government employment , and Baha’is are barred from all leadership positions in the government and military . (10) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated, Baha’is suffered frequent government harassment and persecution, and their property rights generally were disregarded. The government raided Baha’i homes and businesses and confiscated large amounts of private and commercial property, as well as religious materials belonging to Baha’is. . (11) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated, Baha’is also are required to register with the police . (12) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated that [p]ublic and private universities continued to deny admittance to and expelled Baha’i students and [d]uring the year, at least 30 Baha’is were barred or expelled from universities on political or religious grounds . (13) The Department of State 2011 International Religious Freedom Report stated, Baha’is are regularly denied compensation for injury or criminal victimization. . (14) On March 6, 2012, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran issued a report (A/HRC/19/66), which stated that the Special Rapporteur continues to be alarmed by communications that demonstrate the systemic and systematic persecution of members of unrecognized religious communities, particularly the Baha’i community, in violation of international conventions and expressed concern regarding an intensive defamation campaign meant to incite discrimination and hate against Baha’is . (15) On May 23, 2012, the United Nations Secretary-General issued a report, which stated that the Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief * * * pointed out that the Islamic Republic of Iran had a policy of systematic persecution of persons belonging to the Baha’i faith, excluding them from the application of freedom of religion or belief by simply denying that their faith had the status of a religion . (16) On August 22, 2012, the United Nations Secretary-General issued a report, which stated, The international community continues to express concerns about the very serious discrimination against ethnic and religious minorities in law and in practice, in particular the Baha’i community. The Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran expressed alarm about the systemic and systematic persecution of members of the Baha’i community, including severe socioeconomic pressure and arrests and detention. He also deplored the Government’s tolerance of an intensive defamation campaign aimed at inciting discrimination and hate against Baha’is. . (17) On September 13, 2012, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran issued a report (A/67/369), which stated, Reports and interviews submitted to the Special Rapporteur also continue to portray a disturbing trend with regard to religious freedom in the country. Members of both recognized and unrecognized religions have reported various levels of intimidation, arrest, detention and interrogation that focus on their religious beliefs. , and stated, At the time of drafting the report, 105 members of the Baha’i community were reported to be in detention. . (18) On November 27, 2012, the Third Committee of the United Nations General Assembly adopted a draft resolution (A/C.3/67/L.51), which noted, [I]ncreased persecution and human rights violations against persons belonging to unrecognized religious minorities, particularly members of the Baha’i faith and their defenders, including escalating attacks, an increase in the number of arrests and detentions, the restriction of access to higher education on the basis of religion, the sentencing of twelve Baha’is associated with Baha’i educational institutions to lengthy prison terms, the continued denial of access to employment in the public sector, additional restrictions on participation in the private sector, and the de facto criminalization of membership in the Baha’i faith. . (19) On December 20, 2012, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution (A/RES/67/182), which called upon the government of Iran [t]o eliminate discrimination against, and exclusion of * * * members of the Baha’i Faith, regarding access to higher education, and to eliminate the criminalization of efforts to provide higher education to Baha’i youth denied access to Iranian universities, and to accord all Baha’is, including those imprisoned because of their beliefs, the due process of law and the rights that they are constitutionally guaranteed . (20) On February 28, 2013, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran issued a report (A/HRC/22/56), which stated, 110 Bahai’s are currently detained in Iran for exercising their faith, including two women, Mrs. Zohreh Nikayin and Mrs. Taraneh Torabi, who are reportedly nursing infants in prison . (21) In March and May of 2008, intelligence officials of the Government of Iran in Mashhad and Tehran arrested and imprisoned Mrs. Fariba Kamalabadi, Mr. Jamaloddin Khanjani, Mr. Afif Naeimi, Mr. Saeid Rezaie, Mr. Behrouz Tavakkoli, Mrs. Mahvash Sabet, and Mr. Vahid Tizfahm, the seven members of the ad hoc leadership group for the Baha’i community in Iran. (22) In August 2010, the Revolutionary Court in Tehran sentenced the seven Baha’i leaders to 20-year prison terms on charges of spying for Israel, insulting religious sanctities, propaganda against the regime and spreading corruption on earth . (23) The lawyer for these seven leaders, Mrs. Shirin Ebadi, the Nobel Laureate, was denied meaningful or timely access to the prisoners and their files, and her successors as defense counsel were provided extremely limited access. (24) These seven Baha’i leaders were targeted solely on the basis of their religion. (25) Beginning in May 2011, Government of Iran officials in four cities conducted sweeping raids on the homes of dozens of individuals associated with the Baha’i Institute for Higher Education (BIHE) and arrested and detained several educators associated with BIHE. (26) In October 2011, the Revolutionary Court in Tehran sentenced seven of these BIHE instructors and administrators, Mr. Vahid Mahmoudi, Mr. Kamran Mortezaie, Mr. Mahmoud Badavam, Ms. Nooshin Khadem, Mr. Farhad Sedghi, Mr. Riaz Sobhani, and Mr. Ramin Zibaie, to prison terms for the crime of membership of the deviant sect of Baha’ism, with the goal of taking action against the security of the country, in order to further the aims of the deviant sect and those of organizations outside the country . (27) Six of these educators remain imprisoned, with Mr. Mortezaie serving a 5-year prison term and Mr. Badavam, Ms. Khadem, Mr. Sedghi, Mr. Sobhani, and Mr. Zibaie serving 4-year prison terms. (28) Since October 2011, four other BIHE educators, Ms. Faran Hessami, Mr. Kamran Rahimian, Mr. Kayvan Rahimian, and Mr. Shahin Negari have been sentenced to 4-year prison terms, which they are now serving. (29) The efforts of the Government of Iran to collect information on individual Baha’is have recently intensified as evidenced by a letter, dated November 5, 2011, from the Director of the Department of Education in the county of Shahriar in the province of Tehran, instructing the directors of schools in his jurisdiction to subtly and in a confidential manner collect information on Baha’i students. (30) The Baha’i community continues to undergo intense economic and social pressure, including an ongoing campaign in the town of Semnan, where the Government of Iran has harassed and detained Baha’is, closed 17 Baha’i owned businesses in the last three years, and imprisoned several members of the community, including three mothers along with their infants. (31) Ordinary Iranian citizens who belong to the Baha’i faith are disproportionately targeted, interrogated, and detained under the pretext of national security. (32) The Government of Iran is party to the International Covenants on Human Rights and is in violation of its obligations under the Covenants. (b) Statement of policy Congress— (1) condemns the Government of Iran for its state-sponsored persecution of its Baha’i minority and its continued violation of the International Covenants on Human Rights; (2) calls on the Government of Iran to immediately release the seven imprisoned leaders, the ten imprisoned educators, and all other prisoners held solely on account of their religion; and (3) calls on the President and Secretary of State, in cooperation with responsible nations, to immediately condemn the Government of Iran’s continued violation of human rights and demand the immediate release of prisoners held solely on account of their religion. E Reports and other matters 1241. Report on posture and readiness of United States Armed Forces to respond to future terrorist attacks in Africa and the Middle East (a) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012, may have never occurred or could have been prevented had there been an international stabilizing force following NATO-led operations in order to help stabilize the country, build capacity within the security forces, and pursue terrorist groups that threaten the local government as well as United States interests; (2) the attack also highlighted the limitations of the United States military to alert, deploy, and decisively counter a no-notice terrorist attack such as the one in Benghazi, or another security contingency, due to the limitations stemming from United States military posture in Africa and the Middle East and when there is a lack of a layered defense at United States diplomatic facilities; (3) the United States military is more effectively able to respond to terrorist attacks on United States facilities outside of the United States if the responding United States military assets are forward deployed; (4) when an intelligence threat assessment determines that a United States facility overseas is vulnerable to attack, such facility should have robust force protection measures sufficient to safeguard personnel and assets until a United States military response can arrive; (5) the continually evolving terrorist threat to United States interests on the Continent of Africa and the Middle East necessitates that the United States military maintains a forward deployed posture in Europe, Middle East, and Africa in order to be able to respond to terrorist events, or other security contingencies, and to effectively evacuate and recover United States personnel; (6) the United States military, in conjunction with the Department of State and the intelligence community, should continue to evaluate the assumptions underpinning the terrorist threat in order to ensure that it is effectively able to respond globally to future terrorist attacks; (7) the United States military should regularly re-evaluate the posture and alert status requirements of its crisis response elements in order to be more responsive to the evolving and global nature of the terrorist threat, and all United States military crisis response elements should be fully equipped with the required supporting capabilities to conduct their missions; (8) on April 16, 2013, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey, testified before the House Appropriations Committee that the military is, * * * adapting our force posture to a new normal of combustible violence in North Africa and in the Middle East ; (9) The President stated in a press conference on May 16, 2013, I have directed the Defense Department to ensure that our military can respond lightening quick in times of crisis. ; (10) the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs should continue to evaluate the posture of United States forces to respond to the global terrorist threat, including an evaluation of whether United States Africa Command should have forces and necessary equipment permanently assigned to the command to respond more promptly to this new normal ; and (11) although the Department of State-initiated Accountability Review Board found that the Marine Security Guard program should be expanded and that there should be greater coordination between the Department of Defense and the Department of State to identify additional resources for security at high risk posts, the United States military may be challenged to provide additional security to Department of State facilities due to budget shortfalls, on-going force structure constraints, and increasing operational requirements for the Department of Defense. (b) Report required (1) In general Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report on the posture and readiness of United States Armed Forces to respond to future terrorist attacks in Africa and the Middle East.

(C) In consultation with the Secretary of State, a description of new or modified requirements of the Department of State, if any, for— (i) United States Marine Security Guard Detachments; (ii) any other Department of Defense assets to provide enhanced security at Department of State facilities; (iii) an explanation of how any new requirements for Marine Security Detachments or other Department of Defense assets affect the capacity of the Armed Forces, including specifically the capacity of the Marine Corps, to fulfill Department of Defense operational requirements; and (iv) an explanation of how any unfulfilled requirements for Marine Security Detachments would adversely impact security at Department of State facilities. (3) Definition In this subsection, the term appropriate congressional committees means— (A) the Committee on Armed Services and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate; and (B) the Committee on Armed Services and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives. 1242. Role of the Government of Egypt to United States national security (a) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) Egypt is undergoing a significant political transition and the ultimate outcome of this political process and its implications for United States national security interests remain uncertain; (2) the United States continues to have considerable concerns about the intentions and actions of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood and whether the government of President Morsi is committed to a pluralistic, democratic Egypt; (3) the United States has a stake in Egypt becoming a mature, pluralistic democracy in which the rights of Egyptian citizens, including women and minorities, are protected; (4) the United States should continue to closely monitor President Morsi’s support for the peace treaty with the Government of Israel, which has been a stabilizing force in the region for over 30 years; (5) the United States military relationship with the Egyptian military is long-standing and should remain a key pillar to, and component of, United States engagement with Egypt; (6) the close military-to-military relationship between the United States and Egypt has been a critical component in enabling counterterrorism cooperation between the two governments to ensure the United States military has freedom of movement throughout the region in order to deter aggression and respond to threats to United States national security interests, particularly in light of the security situation in Libya and the Sinai; (7) the Egyptian military has exercised restraint and professionalism during the unrest in Egypt over the last two years and hopefully will remain a key mechanism through which the United States can support the people of Egypt in achieving their goals for a representative and democratic political system, while promoting peace and security in the region; and (8) therefore, with appropriate vetting, United States military assistance and support to the Egyptian military should continue, even as civilian aid to Egypt receives greater scrutiny as a result of the uncertainty associated with Egypt’s current political leadership and economic policies. (b) Plan required (1) In general Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of State, shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report that contains a comprehensive plan for United States military assistance and cooperation with Egypt. (2) Matters to be included The plan required under paragraph (1) shall include, at a minimum, a detailed description of the following: (A) How United States security assistance and cooperation enables— (i) freedom of movement for the United States military throughout the region; and (ii) the Government of Egypt to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat al Qaeda, affiliated groups, and other terrorist organizations, whether based in and operating from Egyptian territory or the region. (B) The capacity of the Government of Egypt to prevent the illicit movement of terrorists, criminals, weapons, and other dangerous material across Egypt’s borders or administrative boundaries, including through tunnels and other illicit points of entry into Gaza. (C) The extent to which the Egyptian military is— (i) supporting the protection of the political, economic, and religious freedoms and human rights of all citizens and residents in Egypt, including those involved in Egyptian civil society and democratic promotion efforts through nongovernmental organizations; (ii) supporting credible and legitimate elections in Egypt; (iii) supporting the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty; (iv) taking effective steps to eliminate smuggling networks and to detect and destroy tunnels between Egypt and Gaza; and (v) supporting action to combat terrorism in the Sinai. (D) A description of the strategic objectives of the United States regarding the provision of United States security assistance to the Government of Egypt.

(H) Recommendations, including with respect to required resources and actions, to maximize the effectiveness of United States security assistance provided to Egypt. (3) Appropriate congressional committees defined In this subsection, the term appropriate congressional committees means— (A) the congressional defense committees; and (B) the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives. (c) GAO report Not later than 120 days after the date of the submission of the report required under subsection (b), the Comptroller General of the United States shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report that— (1) reviews and comments on the report required under subsection (b); and (2) provides recommendations regarding additional actions with respect to the provision of United States security assistance to Egypt, if necessary. 1243. Sense of Congress on the military developments on the Korean peninsula (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea ( North Korea ) has escalated regional tensions with hostile rhetoric and provocative actions. (2) North Korea threatened a nuclear attack on the United States and a resumption of open war against the Republic of Korea ( South Korea ). (3) North Korea’s nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs constitute a threat to the national security of the United States and to regional stability. (4) On April 14, 2009, North Korea halted negotiations regarding its nuclear weapons program when it abandoned the Six-Party Talks with the People’s Republic of China ( China ), Japan, the Russian Federation ( Russia ), South Korea, and the United States. (5) On May 25, 2009, North Korea detonated a nuclear device in an underground explosive test. (6) On March 26, 2010, North Korea sank a South Korean naval vessel, the Cheonan, killing 46 South Korean sailors. (7) On November 23, 2010, North Korea shelled the border island of Yeonpyeong-do, killing four people. This was the first direct artillery attack on South Korean territory since the signing of the 1953 armistice. (8) On April 13, 2012, North Korea conducted a rocket launch that failed to send a satellite into orbit. This launch violated United Nations Security Council (UNSC) Resolutions 1718 and 1874. (9) On December 12, 2012, North Korea used banned long-range missile technology to launch an earth observation satellite into orbit. In response, the UNSC unanimously adopted Resolution 2087, condemning the launch. (10) On February 12, 2013, North Korea conducted a third underground nuclear test in violation of UNSC Resolution 1718, 1874, and 2087. The test also contravened North Korea’s commitments under the September 2005 Joint Statement of the Six-Party Talks. (11) On March 7, 2013, the UNSC unanimously adopted Resolution 2094, condemning North Korea’s third nuclear test and imposed additional sanctions against the regime. (12) On March 28, 2013, North Korea unilaterally nullified the armistice agreement with the United States that suspended military conflict on the Korean peninsula. (13) On March 30, 2013, North Korea declared a state of war with South Korea. (14) On April 4, 2013, North Korea placed two intermediate-range Musudan missiles on mobile launchers and temporarily relocated them to the eastern coast of the Korean peninsula before removing them a month later from the launch sites. (b) Sense of congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the United States and its allies, South Korea and Japan, share the goal of a stable and peaceful Korean Peninsula, free of nuclear weapons; (2) the United States remains committed to defending its allies in the Asia-Pacific region and stability in Northeast Asia requires restraint by all parties from activities that would complicate international relations or escalate international tensions, and international disputes should be mitigated in a constructive manner consistent with established principles of international law; (3) Congress supports— (A) the verifiable denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula in a peaceful manner, (B) North Korea’s abandonment of its nuclear programs and return to the Treaty on the Nonproliferation of Nuclear Weapons and to International Atomic Energy Agency safeguards; and (C) North Korea’s full acceptance of and compliance with the terms of the 1953 Armistice Agreement; (4) the United States has national interests in security and stability in the Asia-Pacific region, the implementation of the United States-Korea Free Trade Agreement, nuclear non-proliferation efforts, the promotion of respect for the fundamental human rights of the North Korean people, international cyber-security cooperation, and full implementation of United States and multilateral sanctions against illicit activities; (5) the United States encourages China and Russia to fully implement and enforce United States and United Nations Security Council sanctions against North Korea; and (6) the President, the Secretary of State, and the Secretary of Defense should keep Congress fully informed on security developments on the Korean Peninsula. 1244. Statement of Congress on defense cooperation with Georgia (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The Republic of Georgia is a highly valued ally of the United States and has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to advancing the mutual interests of both countries, including the deployment of Georgian forces as part of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan and the Multi-National Force in Iraq. (2) The peaceful transfer of power as the result of the free and fair parliamentary elections in Georgia in October 2012 represents a major accomplishment toward the Georgian people’s creation of a free society and full democracy. (3) However, since the October 2012 parliamentary elections the new Georgian Government has taken a series of measures against former officials and members of the current political opposition that appear to be motivated by political considerations. (4) Over 100 former Georgian Government officials have been charged with criminal violations since the October 2012 parliamentary elections. (5) Similar charges have been filed against members of the political opposition, including Vano Merabishvili, the Secretary General of the United National Movement. (6) The arrest of the leader of an opposition party is especially troubling, particularly its chilling effect on political freedom prior to the presidential election scheduled for October 2013. (7) The Georgian Government has taken insufficient action to prevent further violence against members of the United National Movement and to punish offenders. (8) These actions call into question the Georgian Government’s continued progress toward the creation of a free and democratic society in which basic freedoms, including freedom for political opposition, are guaranteed. (b) Statement of Congress Congress declares that— (1) the United States remains committed to assisting the people of Georgia in establishing a free and democratic society in their country; (2) the measures taken by the Georgian Government against former officials and political opponents, apparently in part motivated by political considerations, may have a significant negative impact on cooperation between the United States and Georgia, including efforts to build a stronger relationship in political, economic, and security matters, as well as progress on integrating Georgia into international organizations; (3) the United States must be unambiguous when democratic backsliding occurs in a key ally after a peaceful and democratic transfer of power between political parties; and (4) the people of the United States and the Members of Congress express their deepest condolences to the Georgian people on the tragic loss of seven soldiers of Georgia in a suicide bombing on June 6, 2013, and the deaths of three soldiers killed in another suicide bombing on May 13, 2013, while they were supporting United States and NATO forces in Afghanistan. 1245. Limitation on establishment of Regional Special Operations Forces Coordination Centers (a) Limitation None of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2014 for the Department of Defense may be obligated or expended to plan, prepare, establish, or implement any Regional Special Operations Forces Coordination Center (RSCC) or similar regional coordination entities. (b) Exclusion The limitation contained in subsection (a) shall not apply with respect to any RSCC or similar regional coordination entity authorized by statute, including the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Special Operations Headquarters authorized under section 1244 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 ( Public Law 111–84 ; 123 Stat. 2541). (c) Report Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, shall submit to the congressional committees specified in subsection (d) a report on the following: (1) A detailed description of the intent and purpose of the RSCC concept. (2) Defined and validated requirements justifying the establishment of RSCCs or similar entities within each geographic combatant command, to include how such centers have been coordinated and de-conflicted with existing regional and multilateral frameworks or approaches. (3) An explanation of why existing regional centers and multilateral frameworks cannot satisfy the requirements and needs of the Department of Defense and geographic combatant commands. (4) Cost estimates across the Future Years Defense Program for such centers, to include estimates of contributions of nations participating in such centers.

Sense of Congress on the conflict in Syria (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The conflict in Syria began in March 2011. (2) As of February 2013, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights estimated that approximately 70,000 Syrians have been killed during the conflict. (3) According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, over 1,200,000 Syrians are registered refugees or persons of concern including, over 66,000 in Egypt, over 145,000 in Iraq, over 461,000 in Jordan, over 462,000 in Lebanon, and over 329,000 in Turkey. (4) Jabhat al-Nusra, a group located in Syria and categorized as an affiliate of al-Qaeda by the intelligence community, presents a direct threat to the interests of the United States and could present a direct threat to the United States. (5) On August 19, 2011, President Obama stated: The future of Syria must be determined by its people, but President Bashar al-Assad is standing in their way. We have consistently said that President Assad must lead a democratic transition or get out of the way. He has not led. For the sake of the Syrian people, the time has come for President Assad to step aside. . (6) The United States is deploying 200 military personnel from the headquarters of the 1st Armored Division to Jordan in order to improve readiness and prepare for a number of scenarios . (7) In a letter from Miguel Rodriguez, the Assistant to the President for Legislative Affairs, to Senators McCain and Levin, dated April 25, 2013, it stated that our intelligence community does assess with varying degrees of confidence that the Syrian regime has used chemical weapons on a small scale in Syria, specifically, the chemical agent sarin * * * We do believe that any use of chemical weapons in Syria would very likely have originated with the Assad regime * * * the President has made it clear that the use of chemical weapons—or the transfer of chemical weapons to terrorist groups—is a red line for the United States of America . (8) In a press conference with Israel Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, President Obama stated: I have made clear that the use of chemical weapons is a game-changer . (9) In August 2012, during a White House press conference, President Obama stated: We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a redline for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. . (10) It is a threat to the vital national security interest of the United States if terrorist groups, such as al-Qaeda, obtain chemical or biological material or weapons in Syria. (11) At a Pentagon press conference on May 2, 2013, Secretary Hagel confirmed that the Obama Administration is re-thinking its opposition to arming the rebels. (12) On April 11, 2013, responding to a question about the need for a supplemental funding request for any potential United States military effort in Syria, Secretary Hagel stated: Yes, I think it is pretty clear that a supplemental would be required. . (b) Sense of congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) President Obama should have a comprehensive policy and should ensure robust contingency planning to secure United States’ interests in Syria; (2) President Obama should fully consider all courses of action to remove President Bashar al-Assad from power; (3) the conflict in Syria threatens the vital national security interests of Israel and the stability of Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey, the implications of which should be sufficiently weighed by the President when considering policy approaches towards the conflict in Syria; (4) the sale or transfer of advanced anti-aircraft weapons systems to Syria poses a grave risk to Israel and the United States supports Israel’s right to respond to this grave threat as needed; (5) the President should fully consider all courses of action to reinforce his stated redline regarding the use of weapons of mass destruction by the Assad regime in Syria, which could threaten the credibility of the United States with its allies in the region and embolden the Assad regime; (6) the United States should continue to conduct rigorous planning and operational preparation to support any efforts to secure the chemical and biological stockpiles and associated weapons; (7) the United States should have a policy that supports the stability of countries on Syria’s border, including Jordan, Turkey, Iraq, Lebanon, and Israel; (8) the United States should continue to support Syrian opposition forces with non-lethal aid; (9) the President, the Department of Defense, the Department of State, and the intelligence community, in cooperation with European and regional allies, should ensure that the risks of all courses of action or inaction regarding Syria are fully explored and understood and that Congress is kept fully informed of such risks; (10) the President should fully consider, and the Department of Defense should conduct prudent planning for, the provision of lethal aid and relevant operational training to vetted Syrian opposition forces, including an analysis of the risks of the provision of such aid and training; (11) should the President decide to employ any military assets in Syria, the President should provide a supplemental budget request to Congress; and (12) the President should use all diplomatic means to disrupt the flow of arms into Syria, including efforts to dissuade Russia from further arms sales with Syria, the influx of weapons and fighters from Hezbollah, and the infiltration of weapons and fighters from Iran. 1252. Revision of statutory references to former NATO support organizations and related NATO agreements (a) Title 10, united states code Section 2350d of title 10, United States Code, is amended— (1) by striking NATO Maintenance and Supply Organization each place it appears and inserting NATO Support Organization and its executive agencies ; (2) in subsection (a)(1)— (A) by striking Weapon System Partnership Agreements and inserting Support Partnership Agreements ; and (B) in subparagraph (B), by striking a specific weapon system and inserting activities ; and (3) in subsections (b), (c), (d), and (e), by striking Weapon System Partnership Agreement each place it appears and inserting Support Partnership Agreement . (b) Arms export control act Section 21(e)(3) of the Arms Export Control Act ( 22 U.S.C. 2761(e)(3) ) is amended— (1) in subparagraphs (A) and (C)(i), by striking Maintenance and Supply Agency of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and inserting North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Support Organization and its executive agencies ; (2) in subparagraph (A)(i), by striking weapon system partnership agreement and inserting support partnership agreement ; and (3) in subparagraph (C)(i)(II), by striking a specific weapon system and inserting activities . 1253. Limitation on funds to implement executive agreements relating to United States missile defense capabilities (a) Statement of policy Congress reaffirms, with respect to executive agreements relating to the missile defense capabilities of the United States, including basing, locations, capabilities and numbers of missiles with respect to such missile defense capabilities, that section 303(b) of the Arms Control and Disarmament Act ( 22 U.S.C. 2573(b) ) provides the following: No action shall be taken pursuant to this or any other Act that would obligate the United States to reduce or limit the Armed Forces or armaments of the United States in a militarily significant manner, except pursuant to the treaty-making power of the President set forth in Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of the Constitution or unless authorized by the enactment of further affirmative legislation by the Congress of the United States. . (b) Limitation on funds None of the funds authorized to be appropriated or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2014 or any fiscal year thereafter for the Department of Defense may be used— (1) to implement any executive agreement relating to the missile defense capabilities of the United States, including basing, locations, capabilities, and numbers of missiles with respect to such missile defense capabilities; or (2) to implement rules of engagement or Guidance for Employment of Force relating to such executive agreement. (c) Rule of construction Subsection (b) shall not apply with respect to the use of funds to negotiate or implement any executive agreement with a country with respect to which the United States has entered into a treaty of alliance or has a security guarantee. (d) Executive agreement defined In this section, the term executive agreement means an international agreement other than— (1) an agreement that is in the form of a treaty under article II, section 2, clause 2 of the Constitution of the United States; or (2) an agreement that requires implementing legislation to be enacted into law for the agreement to enter into force with respect to the United States. 1254. Limitation on availability of funds for Threat Reduction Engagement activities and United States contributions to the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (a) In general None of the funds made available for fiscal year 2014 for Threat Reduction Engagement activities may be obligated or expended for such purposes until the President certifies to Congress that no state party to the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty has undertaken nuclear weapons test activities in fiscal year 2013 that are inconsistent with United States interpretations regarding obligations under such Treaty. (b) Lobbying or advocacy activities None of the funds made available for fiscal year 2014 for contributions of the United States to the CTBTO entities may be used for lobbying or advocacy in the United States relating to the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. (c) CTBTO entities In subsection (b), the term CTBTO entities means— (1) the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization International Monitoring System; and (2) the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization Preparatory Commission-Special Contributions. 1255. Sense of Congress on military-to-military cooperation between the United States and Burma It is the sense of the Congress that— (1) as the United States policy rebalances towards Asia, it is critical that the United States military comprehensively evaluate its engagement with Burma; (2) the future of the military-to-military relationship between the United States and Burma should take into account the current ethnic conflict in Burma and persecution of ethnic and religious minorities; (3) while the United States has national security interests in Burma’s peace and stability, the peaceful settlement of armed conflicts with the ethnic minority groups requires the Burmese military to respect ceasefire agreements, laws of war, and human rights provisions; and (4) the Department of Defense should fully consider and assess the Burmese military’s efforts to implement reforms, end impunity for human rights abuses, and increase transparency and accountability before expanding military-to-military cooperation beyond initial dialogue and isolated engagements. 1256. Sense of Congress on the stationing of United States forces in Europe (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) During the past several years, over 700 kinetic terror incidents have occurred in the U.S. European Command (EUCOM) area of operations. Rising tensions in the region due to unemployment, fiscal insolvency, ethnic strife, hegemonic desires, and terrorism, pose risks to the security and stability of Europe. (2) Arab Spring uprisings in Middle Eastern and North African countries, including the Republic of Mali, the Arab Republic of Egypt, Libya, and the Syrian Arab Republic (Syria), have presented emerging strategic challenges that present significant implications for regional stability, the security of the State of Israel (Israel), and the national security interests of the United States and many European allies. (3) U.S. Africa Command does not have formally assigned Army or Marine Corps units assigned to it and it continues to share Air Force and Navy component commands with EUCOM. Consequently, United States forces stationed in Europe have been deployed to support contingencies associated with the Arab Spring in North Africa. (4) The Commander of U.S. European Command is responsible for developing operational plans for the defense of Israel. Moreover, forces stationed in Europe would be deployed to defend Israel in the event of such a contingency. (5) Regimes, including the Islamic Republic of Iran and Syria, continue efforts to procure, develop, and proliferate advanced ballistic missile technologies that pose a serious threat to United States forces and installations in the theater, as well as to the territory, populations, and forces of Israel and European allies. United States missile defense capabilities in Europe seek to mitigate these threats. (6) Violent extremist organizations, including Kongra-Gel, al Qaida, Lebanese Hizballah, and Iranian Qods Force, may utilize Europe as an important venue for recruitment, logistical support, financing, and the targeting of the United States and Western interests. (7) Congress has lacked sufficient data to compare the strategic benefits and the costs associated with permanently stationing forces in Europe. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has found that the combatant commands do not completely and consistently report cost data in their theater posture plans. In particular, GAO reported in February 2011 that EUCOM lacks comprehensive cost data in its theater posture plans and therefore decision makers lack critical information that could be used to make fully informed posture decisions. Additionally, in June 2012, GAO found that the Department of Defense has taken steps to align posture initiatives with strategy and cost, but continues to lack comprehensive and consistent cost estimates of initiatives. (8) The Department of Defense has reported that the cost of permanently stationing forces in the United States rather than overseas is often offset by such factors as increased rotational costs. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) an enduring United States presence and engagement across Europe and Eurasia provides the critical access and infrastructure necessary to accomplish United States strategic priorities, expand United States global reach to Europe, Eurasia, the Middle East, Africa, as well as the Mediterranean and Atlantic Oceans, and facilitates a rapid United States response for complex contingencies; (2) the United States continues to have an interest in supporting the stability and security of Europe, especially in a dynamic and challenging global security environment; (3) forward-stationed active duty service members, forward-deployed rotational units, and reserve forces assigned to U.S. European Command remain essential for United States planning, logistics, and operations in support of U.S. Central Command, U.S. Africa Command, U.S. Transportation Command, U.S. Special Operations Command, and U.S. Strategic Command, as well as fulfilling commitments under Article V of the North Atlantic Charter; (4) in light of the benefits associated with defense of the homeland forward and strategic access, as well as the potential for rotational deployments to increase cost to the Department of Defense, the Department of Defense should implement the recommendations of the Government Accountability Office with regard to improved cost estimation to enable informed force posture decisions prior to making any further significant changes to the United States force posture in Europe that could increase risk for the United States; and (5) the Secretary of Defense should keep Congress fully and currently informed regarding the requirements of the United States force posture in Europe and the costs associated with maintaining such force. 1257. Sense of Congress on military capabilities of the People’s Republic of China Congress— (1) notes the People’s Republic of China (PRC) continues to rapidly modernize and expand its military capabilities across the land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace domains; (2) is concerned by the rate and scope of PRC military developments, including its military-focused cyber espionage, which indicate a desire to constrain or prevent the peaceful activities of the United States and its allies in the Western Pacific; (3) concurs with Admiral Samuel Locklear, commander of U.S. Pacific Command, that China’s rapid development of advanced military capabilities, combined with its unclear intentions, certainly raises strategic and security concerns for the U.S. and the region ; (4) notes the United States remains committed to a robust forward military-presence in the Asia-Pacific and will continue to vigorously support mutual defense arrangements with treaty allies while also building deeper relationships with other strategic partners in the region; and (5) urges the Government of the PRC to work peacefully to resolve existing territorial disputes and to adopt a maritime code of conduct with relevant parties to guide all forms of maritime interaction and communications in the Asia-Pacific. 1258. Rule of construction Nothing in this Act shall be construed as authorizing the use of force against Syria or Iran. 1259. Sense of Congress regarding relations with Taiwan It is the sense of Congress that the United States should— (1) allow all high-level officials of Taiwan to enter into the United States or its embassies and consulates under conditions which demonstrate appropriate respect for the dignity of such leaders; (2) allow meetings between all high-level Taiwan and United States officials in United States executive departments; (3) allow the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office and all other instrumentalities established in the United States by Taiwan to conduct business activities, including activities which involve participation by Members of Congress and other representatives of Federal, State, and local governments, and all high-level Taiwan officials, without obstruction from the United States Government or any foreign power; and (4) adopt a policy of allowing high-ranking Taiwan leaders to make official visits with high-ranking officials of the United States, including official visits by Taiwan’s democratically elected president, and allowing for visits between these officials in Washington, D.C. 1260. Sense of Congress on the threat posed by Hezbollah (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) Hezbollah has been designated a foreign terrorist organization by the Department of State since October 8, 1997. (2) Hezbollah has been responsible for numerous terrorist attacks and attempted terrorist attacks around the world, including attacks against United States citizens. (3) Hezbollah is active in Europe and has been linked to a July 18, 2012, suicide bombing in Bulgaria which killed five people. (4) Hezbollah operatives have been captured around the world attacking or attempting to attack Western and Israeli targets. (5) The United States is working with its European allies to combat terrorism through a variety of means, including through NATO’s Partnership Action Plan against Terrorism and the Defence Against Terrorism Programme of Work. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the United States should continue to use all necessary means to fight against terrorism, including Hezbollah; (2) President Obama should strongly encourage his European counterparts to publicly condemn Hezbollah; (3) European allies should seek to officially recognize Hezbollah as a terrorist organization; (4) any attempt to distinguish between military and civilian wings in Hezbollah is meaningless; and (5) all countries should work together to fight radical terrorist organizations like Hezbollah. 1261. Combating crime through intelligence capabilities The Secretary of Defense is authorized to deploy assets, personnel, and resources to the Joint Interagency Task Force South, in coordination with SOUTHCOM, to combat the following by supplying sufficient intelligence capabilities: (1) Transnational criminal organizations. (2) Drug trafficking. (3) Bulk shipments of narcotics or currency. (4) Narco-terrorism. (5) Human trafficking. (6) The Iranian presence in the Western Hemisphere. 1262. Limitation on availability of funds to implement the Arms Trade Treaty None of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2014 or any fiscal year thereafter for the Department of Defense may be obligated or expended to implement the Arms Trade Treaty, or to make any change to existing programs, projects, or activities as approved by Congress in furtherance of, pursuant to, or otherwise to implement the Arms Trade Treaty, unless the Arms Trade Treaty has been signed by the President, received the advice and consent of the Senate, and has been the subject of implementing legislation by the Congress. 1263. War Powers of Congress (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) In 1793, George Washington said, The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure. . (2) In a letter to Thomas Jefferson in 1798, James Madison wrote: The constitution supposes, what the History of all Governments demonstrates, that the Executive is the branch of power most interested in war, and most prone to it. It has accordingly with studied care vested the question of war to the Legislature. (3) In 1973, Congress passed the War Powers Resolution which states in section 2: The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authorization, or (3) national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces. . (4) In its April 1, 2011, Memorandum to President Obama, the Office of Legal Counsel concluded: President Obama could rely on his constitutional power to safeguard the national interest by directing the anticipated military operations in Libya—which were limited in their nature, scope, and duration—without prior congressional authorization. . (5) On June 15, 2011, in a letter to the Speaker of the House of Representatives from the Department of Defense and Department of State, the Departments informed Congress that The President is of the view that the current U.S. military operations in Libya are consistent with the War Powers Resolution and do not under that law require further congressional authorization, because U.S. military operations are distinct from the kind of hostilities contemplated by the Resolution’s 60 day termination provision . . (6) The precedence set by the Executive Branch in its assertion that Congress plays no role in military actions like those taken in Libya is contrary to the intent of the Framers and of the Constitution which vests sole authority to declare war in the Legislative Branch. (b) Rule of construction Nothing in this Act shall be construed to authorize any use of military force. 1264. Prohibition on use of drones to kill United States citizens (a) Prohibition The Department of Defense may not use a drone to kill a citizen of the United States. (b) Exception The prohibition under subsection (a) shall not apply to an individual who is actively engaged in combat against the United States. (c) Definition In this section, the term drone means an unmanned aircraft (as defined in section 331 of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 ( 49 U.S.C. 40101 note)). 1265. Sale of F–16 aircraft to Taiwan The President shall carry out the sale of no fewer than 66 F–16C/D multirole fighter aircraft to Taiwan. 1266. Statement of policy and report on the inherent right of Israel to self-defense (a) Findings Congress makes the following findings: (1) The United States-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012 ( 22 U.S.C. 8601 et seq. ) established the policy of the United States to support the inherent right of Israel to self-defense. (2) The United States-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012 ( 22 U.S.C. 8601 et seq. ) expressed the sense of Congress that the Government of the United States should transfer to the Government of Israel defense articles and defense services such as air refueling tankers, missile defense capabilities, and specialized munitions. (3) The inherent right of Israel to self-defense necessarily includes the possession and maintenance by Israel of an independent capability to remove existential threats to its security and defend its vital national interests. (b) Policy of the united states It is the policy of the United States to take all necessary steps to ensure that Israel possesses and maintains an independent capability to remove existential threats to its security and defend its vital national interests. (c) Sense of congress It is the sense of Congress that air refueling tankers and advanced bunker-buster munitions should immediately be transferred to Israel to ensure our democratic ally has an independent capability to remove any existential threat posed by the Iranian nuclear program and defend its vital national interests. (d) Report Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, and every 90 days thereafter, the President shall submit to the House and Senate Armed Services committees, the House Foreign Affairs Committee, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and the House and Senate Appropriations committees a report that— (1) identifies all aerial refueling platforms, bunker-buster munitions, and other capabilities and platforms that would contribute significantly to the maintenance by Israel of a robust independent capability to remove existential security threats, including nuclear and ballistic missile facilities in Iran, and defend its vital national interests; (2) assesses the availability for sale or transfer of items necessary to acquire the capabilities and platforms described in paragraph (1) as well as the legal authorities available for making such transfers; and (3) describes the steps the President is taking to immediately transfer the items described in paragraph (1) pursuant to the policy described in subsection (b). 1267. Report on collective and national security implications of central Asian and South Caucasus energy development (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) Assured access to stable energy supplies is an enduring concern of both the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). (2) Adopted in Lisbon in November 2010, the new NATO Strategic Concept declares that [s]ome NATO countries will become more dependent on foreign energy suppliers and in some cases, on foreign energy supply and distribution networks for their energy needs . (3) The report required by section 1233 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 ( Public Law 112–81 ) reaffirmed the Strategic Concept’s assessment of growing energy dependence of some members of the NATO alliance and also noted there is value in the assured access, protection, and delivery of energy. (4) Development of energy resources and transit routes in the areas surrounding the Caspian Sea can diversify sources of supply for members of the NATO alliance, particularly those in Eastern Europe. (b) Report (1) Report Not later than 270 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Secretary of Energy, submit to the appropriate congressional committees a detailed report on the implications of new energy resource development and distribution networks, both planned and under construction, in the areas surrounding the Caspian Sea for energy security strategies of the United States and NATO. (2) Elements The report required by paragraph (1) shall include the following: (A) An assessment of the dependence of NATO members on a single oil or natural gas supplier or distribution network. (B) An assessment of the potential of energy resources of the areas surrounding the Caspian Sea to mitigate such dependence on a single supplier or distribution network. (C) Recommendations, if any, for ways in which the United States can help support increased energy security for NATO members. (3) Submission of classified information The report under this subsection shall be submitted in unclassified form, but may contain a classified annex. (c) Appropriate congressional committees defined In this section, the term appropriate congressional committees means— (1) the Committee on Armed Services and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives; and (2) the Committee on Armed Services and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate. 1268.

The report shall address the current and probable future course of military-technological development of the Russian military, the tenets and probable development of Russian security strategy and military strategy, and military organizations and operational concepts, for the 20-year period following submission of such report. (b) Matters to be included A report required under subsection (a) shall include the following: (1) An assessment of the security situation in regions neighboring Russia.

Israel’s right to self-defense Congress fully supports Israel’s lawful exercise of self-defense, including actions to halt regional aggression. 1272. Sense of Congress strongly supporting the full implementation of United States and international sanctions on Iran and urging the President to continue to strengthen enforcement of sanctions legislation (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) On May 14, 1948, the people of Israel proclaimed the establishment of the sovereign and independent State of Israel. (2) On March 28, 1949, the United States Government recognized the establishment of the new State of Israel and established full diplomatic relations. (3) Since its establishment nearly 65 years ago, the modern State of Israel has rebuilt a nation, forged a new and dynamic democratic society, and created a thriving economic, political, cultural, and intellectual life despite the heavy costs of war, terrorism, and unjustified diplomatic and economic boycotts against the people of Israel. (4) The people of Israel have established a vibrant, pluralistic, democratic political system, including freedom of speech, association, and religion; a vigorously free press; free, fair, and open elections; the rule of law; a fully independent judiciary; and other democratic principles and practices. (5) Since the 1979 revolution in Iran, the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran have repeatedly made threats against the existence of the State of Israel and sponsored acts of terrorism and violence against its citizens. (6) On October 27, 2005, President of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called for a world without America and Zionism. (7) In February 2012, Supreme Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei said of Israel, The Zionist regime is a true cancer tumor on this region that should be cut off. And it definitely will be cut off. . (8) In August 2012, Supreme Leader Khamenei said of Israel, This bogus and fake Zionist outgrowth will disappear off the landscape of geography. . (9) In August 2012, President Ahmadinejad said that in the new Middle East * * * there will be no trace of the American presence and the Zionists ; (10) The Department of State has designated the Islamic Republic of Iran as a state sponsor of terrorism since 1984 and has characterized the Islamic Republic of Iran as the most active state sponsor of terrorism in the world. (11) The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has provided weapons, training, funding, and direction to terrorist groups, including Hamas, Hizballah, and Shiite militias in Iraq that are responsible for the murder of hundreds of United States service members and innocent civilians. (12) The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has provided weapons, training, and funding to the regime of Bashar al Assad that has been used to suppress and murder its own people. (13) Since at least the late 1980s, the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has engaged in a sustained and well-documented pattern of illicit and deceptive activities to acquire a nuclear weapons capability. (14) Since September 2005, the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has found the Islamic Republic of Iran to be in non-compliance with its safeguards agreement with the IAEA, which Iran is obligated to undertake as a non-nuclear-weapon State Party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, done at Washington, London, and Moscow July 1, 1968, and entered into force March 5, 1970 (NPT). (15) The United Nations Security Council has adopted multiple resolutions since 2006 demanding of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran its full and sustained suspension of all uranium enrichment-related and reprocessing activities and its full cooperation with the IAEA on all outstanding issues related to its nuclear activities, particularly those concerning the possible military dimensions of its nuclear program. (16) The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has refused to comply with United Nations Security Council resolutions or to fully cooperate with the IAEA. (17) In November 2011, the IAEA Director General issued a report that documented serious concerns regarding possible military dimensions to Iran’s nuclear programme , and affirmed that information available to the IAEA indicates that Iran has carried out activities relevant to the development of a nuclear explosive device and that some activities may be ongoing. (18) The Government of Iran stands in violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights for denying its citizens basic freedoms, including the freedoms of expression, religion, peaceful assembly and movement, and for flagrantly abusing the rights of minorities and women. (19) In his State of the Union Address on January 24, 2012, President Barack Obama stated, Let there be no doubt: America is determined to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, and I will take no options off the table to achieve that goal. . (20) Congress has passed and the President has signed into law legislation imposing significant economic and diplomatic sanctions on Iran to encourage the Government of Iran to abandon its pursuit of nuclear weapons and end its support for terrorism. (21) These sanctions, while having significant effect, have yet to persuade Iran to abandon its illicit pursuits and comply with United Nations Security Council resolutions. (22) More stringent enforcement of sanctions legislation, including elements targeting oil exports and access to foreign exchange, could still lead the Government of Iran to change course. (23) In his State of the Union Address on February 12, 2013, President Obama reiterated, The leaders of Iran must recognize that now is the time for a diplomatic solution, because a coalition stands united in demanding that they meet their obligations. And we will do what is necessary to prevent them from getting a nuclear weapon. . (24) On March 4, 2012, President Obama stated, Iran's leaders should understand that I do not have a policy of containment; I have a policy to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. . (25) On October 22, 2012, President Obama said of Iran, The clock is ticking * * * And we're going to make sure that if they do not meet the demands of the international community, then we are going to take all options necessary to make sure they don't have a nuclear weapon. . (26) On May 19, 2011, President Obama stated, Every state has the right to self-defense, and Israel must be able to defend itself, by itself, against any threat. . (27) On September 21, 2011, President Obama stated, America's commitment to Israel's security is unshakeable. Our friendship with Israel is deep and enduring. . (28) On March 4, 2012, President Obama stated, And whenever an effort is made to delegitimize the state of Israel, my administration has opposed them. So there should not be a shred of doubt by now: when the chips are down, I have Israel's back. . (29) On October 22, 2012, President Obama stated, Israel is a true friend. And if Israel is attacked, America will stand with Israel. I've made that clear throughout my presidency * * * I will stand with Israel if they are attacked. . (30) In December 2012, 74 United States Senators wrote to President Obama As you begin your second term as President, we ask you to reiterate your readiness to take military action against Iran if it continues its efforts to acquire a nuclear weapon. In addition, we urge you to work with our European and Middle Eastern allies to demonstrate to the Iranians that a credible and capable multilateral coalition exists that would support a military strike if, in the end, this is unfortunately necessary. . (31) The United States-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012 ( Public Law 112–150 ) stated that it is United States policy to support Israel’s inherent right to self-defense. (b) Sense of Congress Congress— (1) reaffirms the special bonds of friendship and cooperation that have existed between the United States and the State of Israel for more than sixty years and that enjoy overwhelming bipartisan support in Congress and among the people of the United States; (2) strongly supports the close military, intelligence, and security cooperation that President Obama has pursued with Israel and urges this cooperation to continue and deepen; (3) deplores and condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the reprehensible statements and policies of the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran threatening the security and existence of Israel; (4) recognizes the tremendous threat posed to the United States, the West, and Israel by the Government of Iran’s continuing pursuit of a nuclear weapons capability; (5) reiterates that the policy of the United States is to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon capability and to take such action as may be necessary to implement this policy; (6) reaffirms its strong support for the full implementation of United States and international sanctions on Iran and urges the President to continue and strengthen enforcement of sanctions legislation; (7) declares that the United States has a vital national interest in, and unbreakable commitment to, ensuring the existence, survival, and security of the State of Israel, and reaffirms United States support for Israel’s right to self-defense; and (8) urges that, if the Government of Israel is compelled to take military action in legitimate self-defense against Iran’s nuclear weapons program, the United States Government should stand with Israel and provide, in accordance with United States law and the constitutional responsibility of Congress to authorize the use of military force, diplomatic, military, and economic support to the Government of Israel in its defense of its territory, people, and existence. (c) Rule of construction Nothing in this section shall be construed as an authorization for the use of force or a declaration of war. 1273. Sense of Congress on the illegal nuclear weapons programs of Iran and North Korea It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the paramount security concern of the United States is the ongoing and illegal nuclear weapons programs of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea; (2) it should be the primary objective of the President of the United States to ensure that North Korea’s nuclear program is completely and verifiably eliminated and that Iran, and its terrorist proxies, are not allowed to develop nuclear weapons capability and the means to deliver them; (3) the continuing failure to compel Iran and North Korea to comply with their respective obligations under international law risks greater nuclear proliferation throughout already unstable regions by states that have chosen, but not irreversibly so, to refrain from developing or acquiring their own nuclear weapons capability; (4) nuclear arms reductions by the United States and the Russian Federation have not persuaded or otherwise incentivized Iran and North Korea to halt or reverse their destabilizing and dangerous nuclear weapons programs, nor have they resulted in increased cooperation by other states to deal with these threats; and (5) the President should use all international fora available to the President to pursue the complete and verifiable elimination of the nuclear weapons programs of Iran and North Korea as the President’s paramount obligation to the security of the American people. 1274. Limitation on use of funds to purchase equipment from Rosoboronexport (a) Limitation No funds authorized to be appropriated for the Department of Defense for any fiscal year after fiscal year 2013 may be used for the purchase of any equipment from Rosoboronexport until the Secretary of Defense certifies in writing to the congressional defense committees that, to the best of the Secretary's knowledge— (1) Rosoboronexport is cooperating fully with the Defense Contract Audit Agency; (2) Rosoboronexport has not delivered S–300 advanced anti-aircraft missiles to Syria; and (3) no new contracts have been signed between the Bashar al Assad regime in Syria and Rosoboronexport since January 1, 2013. (b) National security waiver (1) In general The Secretary of Defense may waive the limitation in subsection (a) if the Secretary certifies that the waiver in order to purchase equipment from Rosoboronexport is in national security interest of the United States.

Extension of principles of pilot program to additional facilities of the nuclear security enterprise (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) In April 2006, the Administrator for Nuclear Security initiated a pilot program to improve and streamline oversight of the Kansas City Plant of the National Nuclear Security Administration. (2) In a memorandum initiating the pilot, the Administrator cited slow progress in implementing previous efforts to streamline such oversight, saying that such slow progress is a reflection of excessive risk aversion . (3) The pilot program shifted away from reliance on directives of the Department of Energy and toward third-party certification and industrial standards whenever possible—but the pilot program specifically exempted certain high-hazard operations from its scope. (4) An independent assessment conducted one year after initiation of the pilot found approximately $14,000,000 had been saved in fiscal year 2007 because of the pilot program. (5) The independent assessment found that the replacement of Department of Energy prescriptive requirements with site specific standards and operating systems was observed to be a significant cost reduction driver * * * in several business areas, this reduction was accomplished by moving toward the use of metrics and benchmarks rather than transactional oversight. . (6) The independent assessment further found that no immediate or negative impacts were observed as a result of the pilot program and that the lessons learned at [the Kansas City Plant] can and should be applied at other NNSA and DOE sites , while acknowledging that application of such lessons would be limited by the presence of high-risk, high-hazard activities at such locations. (7) The independent assessment concluded, it is our opinion that these elements can be encouraged and developed over time at each NNSA facility, subject to the limitations made necessary by the nature of the site. . (b) Extension of policies (1) In general Except as provided by paragraph (2), the Administrator for Nuclear Security shall— (A) ensure that the principles of the pilot program are permanently implemented at the Kansas City Plant of the National Nuclear Security Administration; and (B) in accordance with paragraph (3), extend such principles of the pilot program, with modifications as the Administrator determines appropriate, to not less than two additional facilities of the nuclear security enterprise (as defined in section 4002(5) of the Atomic Energy Defense Act ( 50 U.S.C. 2501(5) ), with such principles commencing at each facility not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this Act. (2) Exemption In carrying out the extension of the principles of the pilot program pursuant to subparagraph (A) and (B) of paragraph (1), the Administrator— (A) may exempt high-hazard or high-risk activities from such extension; (B) shall exempt nuclear operations from such extension; and (C) shall focus the initial extension of such principles on low-risk, high-reward initiatives. (3) Implementation (A) In extending the principles of the pilot program to not less than two facilities under paragraph (1)(B), the Administrator shall certify to the appropriate congressional committees that— (i) the management and operating contractor for such a facility has sufficiently mature processes, as well as high performance, to enable the extension without undue risk; and (ii) Federal oversight mechanisms are in place and sufficiently mature to enable the extension without undue risk. (B) If the Administrator cannot make a certification under subparagraph (A) with respect to a facility— (i) the Administrator shall delay the extension of the principles of the pilot program to such facility until the date on which the Administrator makes such certification; and (ii) not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Administrator shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees a report regarding— (I) the improvements to processes, procedures, and performance that are required to make such certification; (II) a plan with respect to the activities that the Administrator will carry out to make such improvements; and (III) the date by which the Administrator expects to make such certification and extend the principles of the pilot program.

Sense of Congress (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) It is in the interest of United States national security that the United States merchant marine, both ships and mariners, serve as a naval auxiliary in times of war or national emergency. (2) The readiness of the United States merchant fleet should be augmented by a Government-owned reserve fleet comprised of ships with national defense features that may not be available immediately in sufficient numbers or types in the active United States-owned, United States-flagged, and United States-crewed commercial industry. (3) The Ready Reserve Force of the Maritime Administration, a component of the National Defense Reserve Fleet, plays an important role in United States national security by providing necessary readiness and efficiency in the form of a Government-owned sealift fleet. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) maintaining a United States shipbuilding base is critical to meeting United States national security requirements; (2) it is of vital importance that the Ready Reserve Force of the Maritime Administration remains capable, modern, and efficient in order to best serve the national security needs of the United States in times of war or national emergency; (3) Federal agencies must consider investment options for replacing aging vessels within the Ready Reserve Force to meet future operational commitments; (4) investment in recapitalizing the Ready Reserve Force may include— (A) construction of dual-use vessels, based on need, for use in the America’s Marine Highway Program of the Department of Transportation, as a recent study performed under a cooperative agreement between the Maritime Administration and the Navy demonstrated that dual-use vessels transporting domestic freight between United States ports could be called upon to supplement sealift capacity; (B) construction of tanker vessels to meet military transport needs; and (C) construction of vessels for use in transporting potential new energy exports; and (5) the Department of Transportation, in consultation with the Navy, should pursue the most cost-effective means of recapitalizing the Ready Reserve Force, including by promoting the building of new vessels that are militarily useful and commercially viable. 3504.
