[Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Women and Children's HIV Protection 
Act of 2003''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds as follows:
            (1) Perinatal transmission is the leading cause of 
        pediatric HIV infections, including AIDS cases.
            (2) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
        (``CDC'') estimates that nearly 7,000 HIV-infected women give 
        birth in the United States each year and as many as 400 babies 
        continue to be born with HIV infection each year.
            (3) Medical advances have made it possible to nearly 
        eliminate perinatal HIV transmission.
            (4) Research studies have demonstrated that the 
        administration of antiviral medication during pregnancy, during 
        labor, and immediately following birth can significantly reduce 
        the transmission of HIV from an infected mother to her baby. 
        Caesarean section further reduces the risk of transmission.
            (5) Even if treatment begins shortly after birth, 
        antiretroviral therapy can substantially reduce the chance that 
        an HIV-exposed infant will become infected.
            (6) Breastfeeding by HIV-infected mothers poses additional 
        significant risk of infection to babies.
            (7) The Institute of Medicine (``IOM'') has recommended the 
        adoption of a national policy of universal HIV testing, with 
        patient notification, as a routine component of prenatal care. 
        However, 15 percent of HIV-infected pregnant women receive no 
        prenatal care according to the IOM.
            (8) The CDC has recommended since 1995 that all pregnant 
        women be counseled and offered voluntary HIV testing. Yet 
        nearly half of pregnant women are still not tested according to 
        the CDC. The CDC has found that mandatory testing of newborns 
        and universal HIV testing of pregnant woman are the best 
        approaches for identifying, treating, and preventing HIV among 
        pregnant women and children.
            (9) The American Medical Association recommends mandatory 
        HIV testing of all newborns with appropriate treatment for 
        affected mothers and children.
            (10) Testing newborns whose mothers' status is unknown 
        ensures that every child at risk for HIV is identified.
            (11) More than a third of the HIV infections that occur 
        annually among newborns in the United States could be prevented 
        with routine HIV testing of pregnant woman or newborns 
        according to a 2002 report by the Inspector General of the 
        Department of Health and Human Services. This represents over 
        100 babies born every year that are needlessly infected.
            (12) The provision of testing of pregnant women and 
        newborns with appropriate counseling and treatment can 
        significantly reduce the number of pediatric HIV infections, 
        including AIDS cases, can improve access to and medical care 
        for the woman and children, and can provide opportunities to 
        further reduce transmission among adults.
            (13) The provision of such testing, counseling, and 
        treatment can reduce the overall cost of pediatric HIV 
        infections, including AIDS cases.
            (14) New York State has required mandatory HIV counseling 
        and voluntary testing for pregnant women and mandatory HIV 
        testing of all newborns since February 1997. As a result, the 
        perinatal HIV transmission rate in the State has dropped from 
        25 percent to an all time low of 3.5 percent and over 99 
percent of HIV-infected women and their children have been linked to 
care.
    (15) For the foregoing reasons--
                    (A) universal routine HIV testing of pregnant women 
                and newborns should be the standard of care; and
                    (B) the relevant medical organizations, as well as 
                public health officials, should issue guidelines making 
                such testing, counseling, and treatment the standard of 
                care.

SEC. 3. GRANTS REGARDING COUNSELING AND TESTING OF PREGNANT WOMEN AND 
              NEWBORN INFANTS.

[Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Veterans Mental Health Care Capacity 
Enhancement Act of 2005''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Mental health treatment capacity at community-based 
        outpatient clinics remains inadequate and inconsistent, despite 
        the requirement under section 1706(c) of title 38, United 
        States Code, that every primary care health care facility of 
        the Department of Veterans Affairs develop and carry out a plan 
        to meet the mental health care needs of veterans who require 
        such services.
            (2) In 2001, the minority staff of the Committee on 
        Veterans' Affairs of the Senate conducted a survey of 
        community-based outpatient clinics and found that there was no 
        established systemwide baseline of acceptable mental health 
        service levels at such clinics.
            (3) In 2004, the Department of Veterans Affairs workgroup 
        on mental health care, which developed and submitted a 
        Comprehensive Mental Health Strategic Plan to the Secretary of 
        Veterans Affairs, found service and funding gaps within the 
        Department of Veterans Affairs health care system, and made 
        numerous recommendations for improvements. As of May 2005, 
        Congress had not received a final report on the workgroup's 
        findings.
            (4) In February 2005, the Government Accountability Office 
        reported that the Department of Veterans Affairs had not fully 
        met any of the 24 clinical care and education recommendations 
        made in 2004 by the Special Committee on Post-Traumatic Stress 
        Disorder of the Under Secretary for Health, Veterans Health 
        Administration.

        for various programs (including mental health services at 
        community-based outpatient clinics);
            ``(ii) fostering collaborative environments for providers;

            ``(iii) encouraging clinicians to conduct mental health 
        consultations during primary care visits.''.
    (b) Inflationary Indexing of Capacity Requirements.--Section

services for disabled veterans are adjusted for inflation each fiscal 
year.''.
    (c) Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.--Section 1706(c) of 
title 38, United States Code, is amended--

    ``(2) The Secretary shall ensure that not less than 90 percent of 
community-based outpatient clinics have the capacity to provide onsite, 
contract-referral, or tele-mental health services--
            ``(A) for at least 10 percent of all clinic visits by not

        onsite or at a nearby contracted or Department facility; and
            ``(B) a case manager is assigned to coordinate follow up

[A]:
Student Loan Repayment Act of 2016  This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow a work opportunity tax credit for employers who hire a qualified student loan repayer. A &quot;qualified student loan repayer&quot; is any individual who is certified by the designated local agency as: (1) having at least an associate's degree, and (2) having outstanding education loans of at least $10,000.  The bill also allows a business tax credit equal to 50% of the student loan program startup costs paid by employers during the year, subject to a limit of $500 per employee participating in the program. The credit applies to the ordinary and necessary expenses for the establishment or administration of a student loan repayment plan through which the employer provides specified annual matching contributions to each employee. The credit does not apply to payments made to, or on behalf of, any employee pursuant to the plan. An employer may claim the credit for three years if the employer has not established or maintained a plan for substantially the same employees during the three-year period immediately preceding the first year in which the credit is otherwise allowable.
