SEC. 2. CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Applications for naturalization have increased 
        dramatically in recent years, outpacing the Immigration and 
        Naturalization Service's ability to process them.
            (2) The dramatic increase in applications for 
        naturalization and the inability of the Immigration and 
        Naturalization Service to deal with them adequately has 
        resulted in an unacceptably large backlog in naturalization 
        adjudications.
            (3) The processing times in the Immigration and 
        Naturalization Service's other immigration benefits have been 
        unacceptably long. Applicants for family- and employment-based 
        visas are waiting as long as 3 to 4 years to obtain a visa or 
        an adjustment to lawful permanent resident status.
            (4) In California, the delays in processing adjustment of 
        status applications have averaged 52 months. In Texas, the 
        delays have averaged 69 months. Residents of New York have had 
        to wait up to 28 months; in Florida, 26 months; in Illinois, 37 
        months; in Oregon, 31 months; and in Arizona, 49 months. Most 
        other States have experienced unacceptably long processing and 
        adjudication delays.
            (5) Applicants pay fees to have their applications 
        adjudicated in a timely manner. These fees have increased 
        dramatically in recent years without a commensurate increase in 
        the capability of that Immigration and Naturalization Service 
        to process and adjudicate these cases in an efficient manner.
            (6) Processing these applications in a timely fashion is 
        critical. Each 12-month delay in adjudicating an adjustment of 
        status application requires the alien to file applications to 
        extend employment authorization to work and advance parole 
        documents to travel.
            (7) The enormous delays in processing applications for 
        families and businesses have had a negative impact on the 
        reunification of spouses and minor children and the ability of 
        law-abiding and contributing members of our communities to 
        participate fully in the civic life of the United States.
            (8) United States employers have also experienced 
        debilitating delays in hiring employees who contribute to the 
        economic growth of the United States. These delays have forced 
        employers to send highly skilled and valued employees out of 
        the United States because their immigrant petitions were not 
        approved in a timely fashion. Such disruptions seriously 
        threaten the competitive edge of the United States in the 
        global marketplace.
    (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to--
            (1) provide the Immigration and Naturalization Service with 
        the mechanisms it needs to eliminate the current backlog in the 
        processing of immigration benefit applications within 1 year 
        after enactment of this Act and to maintain the elimination of 
        the backlog in future years; and
            (2) provide for regular congressional oversight of the 
        performance of the Immigration and Naturalization Service in 
        eliminating the backlog and processing delays in immigration 
        benefits adjudications.
    (c) Policy.--It is the sense of Congress that the processing of an 
immigration benefit application should be completed not later than 180 
days after the initial filing of the application, except that a 
petition for a nonimmigrant visa under section 214(c) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act should be processed not later than 30 
days after the filing of the petition.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    In this Act:
            (1) Backlog.--The term ``backlog'' means, with respect to 
        an immigration benefit application, the period of time in 
        excess of 180 days that such application has been pending 
        before the Immigration and Naturalization Service.
            (2) Immigration benefit application.--The term 
        ``immigration benefit application'' means any application or 
        petition to confer, certify, change, adjust, or extend any 
        status granted under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

SEC. 4. IMMIGRATION SERVICES AND INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT ACCOUNT.

    (a) Authority of the Attorney General.--The Attorney General shall 
take such measures as may be necessary to--
            (1) reduce the backlog in the processing of immigration 
        benefit applications, with the objective of the total 
        elimination of the backlog not later than one year after the 
        date of enactment of this Act;
            (2) make such other improvements in the processing of 
        immigration benefit applications as may be necessary to ensure 
        that a backlog does not develop after such date; and
            (3) make such improvements in infrastructure as may be 
        necessary to effectively provide immigration services.
    (b) Authorization of Appropriations.--
            (1) In general.--There is authorized to be appropriated to 
        the Department of Justice from time to time such sums as may be 
        necessary for the Attorney General to carry out subsection (a).
            (2) Designation of account in treasury.--Amounts 
        appropriated pursuant to paragraph (1) may be referred to as 
        the ``Immigration Services and Infrastructure Improvements 
        Account''.
            (3) Availability of funds.--Amounts appropriated pursuant 
        to paragraph (1) are authorized to remain available until 
        expended.
            (4) Limitation on expenditures.--None of the funds 
        appropriated pursuant to paragraph (1) may be expended until 
        the report described in section 5(a) has been submitted to 
        Congress.

Counterterrorism Act of 1999''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) On August 17, 1998, two United States embassies in 
        Nairobi, Kenya, and in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, were destroyed 
        by simultaneously exploding bombs. The resulting explosions 
        killed 220 persons and injured more than 4,000 others. Twelve 
        Americans and 40 Kenyan and Tanzanian employees of the United 
        States Foreign Service were killed in the attack.
            (2) The United States personnel in both Dar Es Salaam and 
        Nairobi showed leadership and personal courage in their 
        response to the attacks. Despite the havoc wrecked upon the 
        embassies, staff in both embassies provided rapid response in 
        locating and rescuing victims, providing emergency assistance, 
        and quickly restoring embassy operations during a crisis.
            (3) The bombs are believed to have been set by individuals 
        associated with Osama bin Laden, leader of a known 
        transnational terrorist organization. In February of 1998 Bin 
        Laden issued a directive to his followers that called for 
        attacks against American interests anywhere in the world.
            (4) Following the bombings, additional threats have been 
        made against United States diplomatic facilities.
            (5) A review board was convened following the bombings, as 
        required by Public Law 99-399. The panel was chaired by Admiral 
        William J. Crowe, United States Navy (Ret).
            (6) The conclusions of the Crowe panel are strikingly 
        similar to those stated by the Inman Commission, which issued 
        an extensive embassy security report more than 14 years ago.
            (7) Admiral Crowe's panel issued a report setting out the 
        following two striking problems:
                    (A) The United States has devoted inadequate 
                resources towards security against terrorist attacks.
                    (B) The United States Government places too low a 
                priority on security concerns. The result has been a 
                failure to take adequate steps to prevent tragedies 
                such as the bombings in Kenya and Tanzania.
            (8) The Crowe panel found that there was an institutional 
        failure on the part of the Department of State and embassies 
        under its direction, to recognize threats posed by 
        transnational terrorism and vehicular bombs.
            (9) Responsibility for obtaining adequate resources for 
        security programs is widely shared throughout the United States 
        Government, including Congress. Unless the vulnerabilities 
        identified in the Crowe report are addressed in a sustained and 
        financially realistic manner, the lives and safety of United 
        States employees in diplomatic facilities will continue to be 
        at risk from further terrorist attacks.
            (10) Although service in the Foreign Service or other 
        Government positions in foreign countries can never be 
        completely without risk, the United States must ensure that the 
        risks are kept to a minimum.
