SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Children's Health Insurance for 
Long-Term Development Act of 1996''.

SEC. 2. PURPOSE.

    The purpose of this act is to provide health insurance coverage for 
children during the Infant Neurological Risk Exposure Period (INREP). 
The INREP extends through age 3 and encompasses the period of most 
rapid neurological changes in young children. Health coverage will 
improve children's health and, through routine health supervision, 
promote parents' caregiving skills through these critical years.

SEC. 3. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) 86 percent of children with private health insurance 
        are under-insured with respect to well-child care;
            (2) because the human brain develops rapidly until the age 
        of 3, children need regular screenings and follow-up care to 
        detect neurological abnormalities and ensure normal 
        development;
            (3) regular pediatric visits enable physicians to provide 
        guidance on parental activities, such as reading, that 
        stimulate the brain development of infants; and
            (4) children deserve health care coverage that promotes 
        normal brain and nervous system development.

Native American Children's Safety Act - Amends the Indian Child Protection and Family Violence Prevention Act (Act) to prohibit any foster care placement over which an Indian tribe has exclusive jurisdiction from being ordered until the tribal social services agency: (1) completes an investigation of the character of each covered individual who resides in the household or is employed at the institution in which the foster care placement will be made, and (2) concludes that each of those individuals meets the standards of character the tribe is required to establish.  Defines a &quot;covered individual&quot; as an adult and any other individual the tribe determines is subject to such character investigation. Requires the tribal social services agency, as part of those investigations, to: (1) perform criminal records checks, including fingerprint-based checks of national crime information databases; (2) check any child abuse and neglect registry maintained by the state in which the individual resides; and (3) request any other state in which the individual resided during the preceding five years to allow the agency to check its registry. Prohibits a foster care placement from being ordered if the investigation reveals that the covered individual: (1) has been found guilty by a federal, state, or tribal court of a felony involving child abuse or neglect, spousal abuse, a crime against a child, violence, or drugs; or (2) is listed on a child abuse and neglect registry in the state where the individual resides or resided within the preceding five years. Excepts emergency foster care placements from such requirements. Requires each Indian tribe to establish procedures to recertify homes or institutions in which foster care placements are made. Directs the Secretary of the Interior to promulgate a regulation establishing: (1) procedures for investigating the character of any covered individual who resides in the home or is employed at the institution in which the child is placed after the investigations that preceded that placement occurred, (2) self-reporting requirements for foster care homes or institutions that have knowledge that a covered individual residing on their premises would fail the character investigation, (3) procedures and guidelines for emergency foster care placements, and (4) procedures for certifying compliance with the Act.

SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) Ukraine has adopted administrative procedures that 
        accord its citizens the right to emigrate, travel freely, and 
        to return to their country without restriction, and has been 
        found to be in full compliance with the freedom of emigration 
        requirements under title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 since 
        1997;
            (2) since reestablishing independence in 1991, Ukraine has 
        taken important steps toward the establishment of a genuine 
        democracy, and the people of Ukraine deserve praise for 
        demonstrating a deep commitment to democracy through peaceful 
        civil action;
            (3) Ukraine has demonstrated a commitment to adopting the 
        full range of internationally recognized core labor standards 
        and to continue to improve the effective enforcement of its 
        laws reflecting such standards;
            (4) as a participating state of the Organization for 
        Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Ukraine has 
        committed to developing a system of governance in accordance 
        with the provisions of the Final Act of the Conference on 
        Security and Cooperation in Europe (also known as the 
        ``Helsinki Final Act'') and successive documents regarding 
        human rights and humanitarian affairs, including respect for 
        freedom of the media;
            (5) Ukraine has endeavored to address issues related to its 
        national and religious minorities and, as a member state of the 
        OSCE, has committed to adopting special measures for ensuring 
        that persons belonging to national minorities have full 
        equality both individually and communally;
            (6) Ukraine has enacted legislation providing protection 
        against incitement to violence against persons or groups based 
        on national, racial, ethnic, or religious discrimination, 
        including anti-Semitism, and has committed itself, including 
        through a letter to the President of the United States, to 
        ensuring freedom of religion and combating racial and ethnic 
        intolerance and hatred;
            (7) Ukraine has continued to return communal properties 
        confiscated from national and religious minorities during the 
        Soviet era, facilitating the reemergence of these communities 
        in the national life of Ukraine, and remains committed, through 
        a letter to the President of the United States, to establishing 
        the legal framework for completion of this process in the 
        future;
            (8) Ukraine has taken important steps toward the creation 
        of a free market economic system and has received normal trade 
        relations treatment since concluding a bilateral trade 
        agreement with the United States that entered into force on 
        June 23, 1992; and
            (9) Ukraine is seeking admission to the World Trade 
        Organization, which would be a welcome step, recognizing that 
        many issues remain to be resolved, including protection of 
        intellectual property rights, access for United States 
        agricultural products, tariff and excise tax reductions for 
        goods (including automobiles), access for financial services 
        providers of the United States, elimination of export 
        incentives for industrial goods, and reform of customs 
        procedures and other nontariff barriers.

to respond to import surges from Ukraine, recognizing that these rights 
may terminate upon Ukraine's accession to the WTO.

            (1) Introduction.--If a Congressional Oversight Resolution 
        is introduced in the House of Representatives or the Senate 
        during the 30-day period (excluding any day described in 
        section 154(b) of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2194(b)), 
        beginning on the date on which the President first notifies the 
        Congress under subsection (a) of the agreement referred to in 
        that subsection, that Congressional Oversight Resolution shall 
        be considered in accordance with this subsection.
            (2) Congressional oversight resolution.--In this 
        subsection, the term ``Congressional Oversight Resolution'' 
        means only a joint resolution of the two Houses of the 
        Congress, the matter after the resolving clause of which is as 
        follows: ``That it is the sense of the Congress that the 
        agreement between the United States and Ukraine on the terms of 
        accession by Ukraine to the World Trade Organization, of which 
        Congress was notified on ____, does not adequately advance the 
        interests of the United States.'', with the blank space being 
        filled with the appropriate date.
            (3) Procedures for considering resolution.--The provisions 
        of subparagraphs (B), (C), and (D)(i) and (ii) of paragraph (5) 
        of section 2103(c) of the Trade Act of 2002 shall apply to
