Answer: Depository Institution Community Development Investments Enhancement Act - Amends the Home Owners' Loan Act to revise requirements for community development investments by federal savings associations.

Authorizes a federal savings association to make investments, directly or indirectly, each of which is designed primarily to promote the public welfare, including the welfare of low- and moderate-income communities or families through the provision of housing, services, and jobs (community development investments).

Permits such investments to be made directly or by purchase of interests in an entity primarily engaged in making such investments.

Prohibits a federal savings association from making an investment which would subject it to unlimited liability to any person.

Requires the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision to establish: (1) the amount any savings association may invest in any one project; and (2) the aggregate amount of investment of any savings association.

Restricts the aggregate amount of investment of any savings association, subject to specified determinations made by the Director.

Prohibits the maximum aggregate amount of investments of any savings association from exceeding the same 15% of its capital stock actually paid in and unimpaired and 15% of its unimpaired surplus as imposed by this Act on national banking associations and state member banks.


Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Safer Officers and Safer Citizens 
Act of 2017''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) While police body worn cameras are not a panacea, they 
        do contribute to keeping both law enforcement officers and 
        citizens safer.
            (2) Increasing the use of body worn cameras by law 
        enforcement officers has been shown by multiple studies to 
        significantly reduce the number of use of force incidents and 
        the number of citizen complaints.
            (3) Increased accountability and transparency in policing 
        activities will benefit all our citizens, including our law 
        enforcement officers.

SEC. 3. GRANT PROGRAM.

    Title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 
(42 U.S.C. 3711 et seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following:

            ``(1) distributed directly to the State, unit of local 
        government, or Indian tribe; and
            ``(2) used for the purchase of--
                    ``(A) body worn cameras for law enforcement 
                officers; and
                    ``(B) necessary initial supportive technological

                    ``(A) developed in consultation with a broad group 
                of criminal justice experts and community members, and 
                that contains policies and procedures addressing

                juvenile advocacy, the media, and the public; and

        Department of Justice shall reasonably specify, for the

        enforcement officers and citizens.
    ``(d) Matching Funds.--The portion of the costs of a program 
provided by a grant under subsection (a) may not exceed 75 percent. Any 
funds appropriated by Congress for the activities of any agency of an

subsection.

``SEC. 3032. APPLICATIONS.

    ``(a) In General.--To request a grant under this part, the chief 
executive of a State, unit of local government, or Indian tribe shall 
submit an application to the Director of the Bureau of Justice 
Assistance in such form and containing such information as the Director

in submitting the applications required under this section.

``SEC. 3033. DEFINITIONS.

    ``For purposes of this part--
            ``(1) the term `Indian tribe' has the same meaning as in 
        section 4(e) of the Indian Self-Determination and Education 
        Assistance Act (25 U.S.C. 450b(e));
            ``(2) the term `law enforcement officer' means any officer, 
        agent, or employee of a State, unit of local government, or 
        Indian tribe authorized by law or by a government agency to 
        engage in or supervise the prevention, detection, or 
        investigation of any violation of criminal law, or authorized 
        by law to supervise sentenced criminal offenders;
            ``(3) the term `State' means each of the 50 States, the 
        District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the 
        United States Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam, and the 
        Northern Mariana Islands; and
            ``(4) the term `unit of local government' means a county, 
        municipality, town, township, village, parish, borough, or

SEC. 4. OFFSET.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) In 2010, the most current year for which figures are 
        available, the Federal Government spent $1,670,000,000 
        operating and maintaining unutilized and underutilized 
        buildings.
            (2) Federal agencies have consistently indicated that the 
        disposal efforts of the agencies are often hampered by 
        statutory requirements.
    (b) Offset.--Notwithstanding subtitle I of title 40, United States 
Code, or any other provision of law, the Administrator of General 
Services, in consultation with the Director of the Office of Management 
and Budget, may immediately identify and dispose of, through sale at 
fair market value or demolition if unsuitable for sale, the most 
financially burdensome excess Federal property, so as to generate not 
more than $500,000,000 in savings by the end of fiscal year 2022.

Answer: Safer Officers and Safer Citizens Act of 2017 This bill amends the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to authorize the Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance to award matching grants to states, local governments, and Indian tribes to purchase body-worn cameras.  The Bureau of Justice Assistance must give preference to grant applications from jurisdictions that: (1) have comprehensive policies and procedures related to implementation of a body-worn camera program, (2) have high percentages of officers without access to body-worn cameras, (3) have violent crime rates above the national average, and (4) agree to submit metrics on the use of body-worn cameras.  As an offset, the bill allows the General Services Administration to identify and dispose of (i.e., sell or demolish) excess federal property. 


Question: SECTION 1. PARTICIPATION OF TAIWAN IN THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized 
        agency of the United Nations, charged with coordinating health 
        efforts within the United Nations system. The World Health 
        Assembly (WHA) is the decision-making body of the WHO, which 
        convenes annually in May to set the policies and priorities of 
        the organization. Statehood is not a requirement for attendance 
        at the WHA, and numerous observers, including non-members and 
        non-governmental organizations, attended the most recent WHA in 
        May 2017.
            (2) Taiwan began seeking to participate in the WHO as an 
        observer in 1997. In 2009, with strong support from successive 
        United States Administrations, Congress, and like-minded WHO 
        Member States, and during a period of improved Cross-Strait 
        relations, Taiwan received an invitation to attend the WHA as 
        an observer under the name ``Chinese Taipei''. Taiwan received 
        the same invitation each year until 2016, when following the 
        election of President Tsai-Ing Wen of the Democratic 
        Progressive Party, Taiwan's engagement in the international 
        community began facing increased resistance from the People's 
        Republic of China (PRC). Taiwan's invitation to the 2016 WHA 
        was received late and included new language conditioning 
        Taiwan's participation on the PRC's ``one China principle''. In 
        2017, Taiwan did not receive an invitation to the WHA.
            (3) Taiwan remains a model contributor to world health, 
        having provided financial and technical assistance to respond 
        to numerous global health challenges. Taiwan has invested over 
        $6 billion in international medical and humanitarian aid 
        efforts impacting over 80 countries since 1996. In 2014, Taiwan 
        responded to the Ebola crisis by donating $1 million and 
        providing 100,000 sets of personal protective equipment. 
        Through the Global Cooperation and Training Framework, the 
        United States and Taiwan have jointly conducted training 
        programs for experts to combat MERS, Dengue Fever, and Zika. 
        These diseases know no borders, and Taiwan's needless exclusion 
        from global health cooperation increases the dangers presented 
        by global pandemics.
            (4) Taiwan's international engagement has faced increased 
        resistance from the PRC. Taiwan was not invited to the 2016 
        Assembly of the International Civil Aviation Organization 
        (ICAO), despite participating as a guest at the organization's 
        prior summit in 2013. Taiwan's request to participate in the 
        2016 General Assembly of the International Criminal Police 
        Organization (INTERPOL) was also rejected. In May 2017, PRC 
        delegates disrupted a meeting of the Kimberley Process on 
        conflict diamonds held in Perth, Australia, until delegates 
        from Taiwan were asked to leave. In June 2017, the Republic of 
        Panama granted diplomatic recognition to the PRC, terminating a 
        longstanding diplomatic relationship with Taiwan.
            (5) Congress has established a policy of support for 
        Taiwan's participation in international bodies that address 
        shared transnational challenges, particularly in the WHO. 
        Congress passed H.R. 1794 in the 106th Congress, H.R. 428 in 
        the 107th Congress, and S. 2092 in the 108th Congress to direct 
        the Secretary of State to establish a strategy for, and to 
        report annually to Congress on, efforts to obtain observer 
        status for Taiwan at the WHA. Congress also passed H.R. 1151 in 
        the 113th Congress, directing the Secretary to report on a 
        strategy to gain observer status for Taiwan at the ICAO 
        Assembly, and H.R. 1853 in the 114th Congress, directing the 
        Secretary to report on a strategy to gain observer status for 
        Taiwan at the INTERPOL Assembly. However, in 2016 Taiwan did 
        not receive invitations to attend any of these events as an 
        observer.
    (b) Augmentation of Report Concerning the Participation of Taiwan 
in the World Health Organization.--
            (1) In general.--Subsection (c) of section 1 of Public Law 
        108-235 (118 Stat. 656) is amended by adding at the end the 
        following new paragraph:
            ``(3) An account of the changes and improvements the 
        Secretary of State has made to the United States plan to 
        endorse and obtain observer status for Taiwan at the World 
        Health Assembly, following any annual meetings of the World 
        Health Assembly at which Taiwan did not obtain observer 
        status.''.
            (2) Effective date.--The amendment made by paragraph (1) 
        shall take effect and apply beginning with the first report 
        required under subsection


              

         (c) of section 1 of Public Law 108-235 that is submitted after 
        the date of the enactment of this Act.

            Passed the House of Representatives January 9, 2018.

            Attest:

                                                 KAREN L. HAAS,

                                                                 Clerk.

Answer:
 (Sec. 1) This bill requires the annual reports submitted by the Department of State to Congress concerning the U.S. plan to endorse and obtain observer status for Taiwan at the annual summit of the World Health Assembly (WHA) held by the World Health Organization in Geneva, Switzerland, to include an account of the changes and improvements that the State Department has made to such plan following any annual meetings of the WHA at which Taiwan did not obtain such status.
