Centers Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) a local public school often serves as a center for the 
        delivery of education and human resources for all members of a 
        community;
            (2) public schools, primarily in rural and inner city 
        communities, should collaborate with other public and nonprofit 
        agencies and organizations, local businesses, educational 
        entities (such as vocational and adult education programs, 
        school to work programs, community colleges, and universities), 
        recreational, cultural, and other community and human service 
        entities for the purpose of meeting the needs and expanding the 
        opportunities available to the residents of the communities 
        served by such schools;
            (3) by using school facilities, equipment, and resources, 
        communities can promote a more efficient use of public 
        education facilities, especially in rural and inner city areas 
        where limited financial resources have enhanced the necessity 
        for local public schools to become social service centers;
            (4) the high technology, global economy of the 21st century 
        will require lifelong learning to keep America's workforce 
        competitive and successful, local public schools should provide 
        centers for lifelong learning and educational opportunities for 
        individuals of all ages; and
            (5) 21st Century Community Learning Centers enable the 
        entire community to develop an education strategy that 
        addresses the educational needs of all members of local

Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Caribbean Regional Assistance Act of 
2001''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The 16 countries of the Caribbean region constitute a 
        ``third border'' with the United States because of the 
        proximity and importance of countries in this region as a 
        tourist destination.
            (2) Unemployment, weak judicial systems, environmental 
        degradation, and natural disasters in the Caribbean region 
        directly affect the well-being of the United States and the 
        future of the countries in this region will inevitably affect 
        the future of the United States.
            (3) The public sector in many Caribbean countries lacks 
        appropriate training and clearly defined authority and needs to 
        become more efficient.
            (4) In the 1990's economic growth in the Caribbean region 
        lagged seriously behind economic growth in the Latin American 
        region. This discrepancy will produce significantly lower 
        living standards and lower levels of tax revenues with which to 
        address critical social needs for the Caribbean region.
            (5) Highly trained labor is often unavailable in the 
        Caribbean region and governmental red tape limits the ability 
        of the private sector to take full advantage of opportunities 
        in the world marketplace.
            (6) Heavy reliance on relatively few exports and tourism 
        products and the relatively high cost of transportation and 
        telecommunications services further constrain growth in the 
        Caribbean region.
            (7) A more regional corporate strategy for business success 
        and competition in the global marketplace needs to be developed 
        for the Caribbean region.
            (8) Many small Caribbean countries are facing severe 
        economic and social stress due to the decline in banana 
        production and the prospective loss or curtailment of existing 
        European Union trade preferences.
            (9) Economic displacement of small farmers and individuals 
        employed in the supporting infrastructure of the banana 
        industry--individuals who comprise approximately 50 percent of 
        the workforce of some Caribbean countries--will continue and 
        will place added pressures on the economies of these countries.
            (10) In the small open economies of countries in the 
        Caribbean region, growth can only be achieved as the policies 
        and products of these countries, both goods and services, 
        become increasingly competitive in the global market.
            (11) Deterioration in economic, social, and political 
        conditions in the small countries of the Caribbean region is 
        leading to increased crime in the region and increased illegal 
        immigration to the United States.
            (12) The United States is also concerned about narcotics 
        trafficking in the Caribbean region, particularly with respect 
        to continuing bilateral cooperation with Caribbean governments 
        in drug interdiction and combating money laundering.
            (13) The economic and social development of the Caribbean 
        region depends on the efficiency and fairness of the legal 
        systems of this region. There is a widespread perception that 
        the legal systems in the Caribbean region are inefficient and 
        ineffective and that the administration of law and the quality 
        of justice that is rendered needs to be improved.
            (14) The ecosystems which sustain the economies of the 
        countries of the Caribbean region, whether based on 
        agriculture, fisheries, or tourism, are under severe and 
        increasing stress.
            (15) Environmental problems in the Caribbean region arise 
        from inadequate and inappropriate waste management, land use 
        practices, and coastal zone management.
            (16) The Caribbean region currently has the highest HIV/
        AIDS prevalence rate of any region in the world other than sub-
        Saharan Africa. Out of the 12 countries with the highest HIV/
        AIDS prevalence rates in Latin America and the Caribbean 
        region, 9 are in the Caribbean region. HIV/AIDS has spread to 
        the general population in 5 countries in the Caribbean region, 
        and in other Caribbean countries the epidemic is accelerating 
        rapidly and is poised to strike the remaining general 
        populations.
            (17) The enactment in 1983 of the Caribbean Basin Economic 
        Recovery Act represented a successful commitment by the United 
        States to encourage the development of strong democratic 
        governments and revitalized economies in neighboring countries 
        in the Caribbean region.
            (18) In May 1997, United States and Caribbean leaders met 
        in Bridgetown, Barbados, and pledged to strengthen cooperation 
        in responding to the challenges of the coming millennium.
            (19) The Bridgetown Barbados Summit commits the United 
        States and signatory Caribbean countries to a Plan of Action in 
        the areas of trade, economic development, and justice and 
        security.
            (20) In April 1998 leaders from the Western Hemisphere 
        nations met in Santiago, Chile, and noted in their summit 
        declaration that ``the real economic benefits in the Americas 
        [result] from more open trade, transparency in economic 
        regulations, sound market-based policies, as well as efforts by 
        the private sector to increase competitiveness''.
            (21) The United States is committed to completing a Free 
        Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) process by 2005 in order to 
        expand markets for United States goods and services and to help 
        ensure safe destinations for United States foreign investment.
