            (2) Congress remains supportive of and inspired by the

        a democratic, stable, and prosperous Iraq displayed by the

        in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Iraqi patriots 
        working toward a better future for their country and the 
        children of Iraq.
            (3) Congress recognizes the complex and interdependent 
        nature of the challenges associated with the political, 
        security, infrastructure, and economic development of and 
        governance capacity building at and between the national,

        attacks and threats against United States Armed Forces, 
        Coalition Forces, Iraqi Security Forces, and civilians in Iraq.

        sectarian violence in Iraq following the February 22, 2006, 
        bombing of the Askariya mosque in Samarra, Iraq, and about 
        continued ethnic and sectarian tensions across Iraq and within

        Forces.
            (11) Congress urges the Government of Iraq to continue to 
        pursue policies to promote the development of--
                    (A) a market-based economy in Iraq that increases

                workers;
                    (B) private-sector investment opportunities for 
                domestic and international investors; and

                appropriate level of investment in the development of 
                and the continued operations and maintenance for Iraq's 
                national infrastructure.
            (12) Congress notes that the National Strategy for Victory 
        in Iraq is not specific regarding vital measures or other 
        benchmarks in Iraq's political, security, infrastructure, and 
        economic development that need to be met to signal to Congress 
        and the American people that victory in Iraq has been achieved 
        and the majority of United States Armed Forces currently 
        deployed in Operation Iraqi Freedom can be redeployed to their 
        peacetime duty stations.
            (13) Congress notes the findings of the reports pursuant to 
        the section entitled ``Measuring Stability and Security in 
        Iraq'' of House Conference Report 109-72 accompanying H.R. 
        1268, Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, 
        the Global War on Terror, and Tsunami Relief, 2005 (Public Law 
        109-13), submitted by the Secretary of Defense (in consultation 
        with other appropriate members of the National Security 
        Council) to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the 
        Majority Leader of the Senate, and the congressional defense 
        committees that identifies security, economic, and Iraqi 
        Security Force training performance standards and goals, 
        accompanied by a notional timetable for achieving these goals.
            (14) Congress notes the report submitted pursuant to the 
        United States Policy in Iraq Act (section 1227 of the National 
        Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2006 (Public Law 109-
        163); 119 Stat. 3465-3467), and the current military mission 
        and the diplomatic, political, economic, and military measures 
        that are being or have been undertaken to successfully complete 
        or support that mission.
            (15) Congress reaffirms the findings of the section 
        entitled ``Measuring Stability and Security in Iraq'' of House 
        Conference Report 109-72 and of section 1227 of the National 
        Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2006, and notes the 
        advantages of consolidating various reports into a single 
        report, from the President, that reflects the requirements of 
        both laws referenced in paragraphs (13) and (14) and that 
        includes the requirements of section 4 of this Act.
            (16) Congress is concerned that the reports submitted to 
        Congress pursuant to the section entitled ``Measuring Stability 
        and Security in Iraq'' of House Conference Report 109-72 and of 
        section 1227 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 
        Fiscal Year 2006, do not provide sufficient content, 
        information, data, and analysis for Congress to comprehensively 
        evaluate the mission in Iraq.
            (17) Congress urges that the reports transmitted pursuant 
        to section 4 of this Act be organized and written to provide 
        content, information, data, and analysis on the mission in Iraq 
        as it pertains to the political, security, infrastructure, and 
        economic development of and governance capacity building at and 
        between the national, national capital city, regional, 
        provincial, provincial capital city, and strategic municipal 
        levels of government within Iraq.
            (18) It is the duty of Congress under Article I, Section 8 
        of the United States Constitution to ``raise and support 
        Armies,'' and that by requiring the President to report to 
        Congress on Operation Iraqi Freedom, Congress is better able to 
        carry out this constitutional duty.
