        for the contract at the level required to avoid contract 
        cancellation.
            (4) That there is a stable design for the property to be 
        procured and that the technical risks associated with such 
        property are not excessive.
            (5) The estimates of both the cost of the contract and the 
        anticipated cost avoidance through the use of an economic order 
        quantity contract are realistic.

[[Page 131 STAT. 1320]]

        unit cost or procurement unit cost for such system to determine 
        that the estimates of the unit costs are realistic.
            (2) During the fiscal year in which such contract is to be 
        awarded, sufficient funds will be available to perform the 
        contract in such fiscal year, and the future-years defense 
        program submitted to Congress under section 221 of title 10, 
        United States Code, for that fiscal year will include the 
        funding required to execute the program without cancellation.
            (3) The contract is a fixed-price type contract.
            (4) The proposed contract provides for production at not 
        less than minimum economic rates given the existing tooling and 
        facilities.
            (5) The Secretary has determined that each of the conditions 
        described in paragraphs (1) through (6) of subsection (c) will 
        be met by such contract and has provided the basis for such 
        determination to the congressional defense committees.

royalties and other payments as described in this section. Under the 
pilot program, except as provided in subsections (b) and (d), any 
royalties or other payments received by a Federal agency from the 
licensing and assignment of inventions under agreements entered into by 
Department of Defense laboratories, and from the licensing of inventions 
of Department of Defense laboratories, shall be retained by the 
laboratory which produced the invention and shall be disposed of as 
follows:
            (1)(A) The laboratory director shall pay each year the first 
        $2,000, and thereafter at least 20 percent, of the royalties or 
        other payments, other than payments of patent costs as 
        delineated by a license or assignment agreement, to the inventor 
        or coinventors, if the inventor's or coinventor's rights are 
        directly assigned to the United States.
            (B) A laboratory director may provide appropriate 
        incentives, from royalties or other payments, to laboratory 
        employees who are not an inventor of such inventions but who 
        substantially increased the technical value of the inventions.
            (C) The laboratory shall retain the royalties and other 
        payments received from an invention until the laboratory makes 
        payments to employees of a laboratory under subparagraph (A) or 
        (B).
            (2) The balance of the royalties or other payments shall be 
        transferred by the agency to its laboratories, with the majority 
        share of the royalties or other payments from any invention 
        going to the laboratory where the invention occurred. The 
        royalties or other payments so transferred to any laboratory may 
        be used or obligated by that laboratory during the fiscal year 
        in which they are received or during the 2 succeeding fiscal 
        years--
                    (A) to reward scientific, engineering, and technical 
                employees of the laboratory, including developers of

                whether the technology has commercial applications;
                    (B) to further scientific exchange among the 
                laboratories of the agency;
                    (C) for education and training of employees 
                consistent with the research and development missions 
                and objectives of the agency or laboratory, and for 
                other activities that increase the potential for 
                transfer of the technology of the laboratories of the 
                agency;
                    (D) for payment of expenses incidental to the 
                administration and licensing of intellectual property by 
                the agency or laboratory with respect to inventions made 
                at that laboratory, including the fees or other costs 
                for the services of other agencies, persons, or 
                organizations for intellectual property management and 
                licensing services; or
                    (E) for scientific research and development 
                consistent with the research and development missions

        the second fiscal year succeeding the fiscal year in which the 
        royalties and other payments were received shall be paid into 
        the Treasury of the United States.

    (b) Treatment of Payments to Employees.--
            (1) In general.--Any payment made to an employee under the 
        pilot program shall be in addition to the regular pay of the 
        employee and to any other awards made to the employee, and shall 
        not affect the entitlement of the employee to any regular pay, 
        annuity, or award to which the employee is otherwise entitled or 
        for which the employee is otherwise eligible or limit the amount 
        thereof. Any payment made to an inventor as such shall continue 
        after the inventor leaves the laboratory.
            (2) Cumulative payments.--(A) Cumulative payments made under 
        the pilot program while the inventor is still employed at the 
        laboratory shall not exceed $500,000 per year to any one person,

        title 10, United States Code) approves a larger award.
            (B) Cumulative payments made under the pilot program after 
        the inventor leaves the laboratory shall not exceed $150,000 per 
        year to any one person, unless the head of the agency approves a 
        larger award (with the excess over $150,000 being treated as an 
        agency award to a former employee under section 4505 of title 5, 
        United States Code).

    (c) Invention Management Services.--Under the pilot program, a 
laboratory receiving royalties or other payments as a result of

inventors under subparagraph (A) of subsection (a)(1), costs and 
expenses incurred under subparagraph (D) of subsection (a)(2), and the 
cost of foreign patenting and maintenance for any invention of the other 
agency. All royalties and other payments remaining after offsetting the 
payments to inventors, costs, and expenses described in the preceding 
sentence shall be transferred to the agency for which the services were 
performed, for distribution in accordance with subsection (a)(2).
    (d) Certain Assignments.--Under the pilot program, if the invention 
involved was one assigned to the laboratory--
            (1) by a contractor, grantee, or participant, or an employee 
        of a contractor, grantee, or participant, in an agreement or 
        other arrangement with the agency; or
            (2) by an employee of the agency who was not working in the 
        laboratory at the time the invention was made,

the agency unit that was involved in such assignment shall be considered 
to be a laboratory for purposes of this section.
    (e) Sunset.--The pilot program under this section shall terminate 5 
years after the date of the enactment of this Act.

``Sec. 183a. <<NOTE: 10 USC 183a.>>  Military Aviation and 
                  Installation Assurance Clearinghouse for review 
                  of mission obstructions

    ``(a) Establishment.--(1) The Secretary of Defense shall establish a 
Military Aviation and Installation Assurance Siting Clearinghouse (in 
this section referred to as the `Clearinghouse').
    ``(2) The Clearinghouse shall be--
            ``(A) organized under the authority, direction, and control 
        of an Assistant Secretary of Defense designated by the 
        Secretary; and
            ``(B) assigned such personnel and resources as the Secretary 
        considers appropriate to carry out this section.

    ``(b) Functions.--(1) The Clearinghouse shall coordinate Department 
of Defense review of applications for energy projects filed with the 
Secretary of Transportation pursuant to section 44718 of title 49 and 
received by the Department of Defense from the Secretary of 
Transportation. In performing such coordination, the Clearinghouse shall

receiving from the Secretary of Transportation a proper application for 
an energy project under section 44718 of title 49 that may have an 
adverse impact on military operations and readiness, the Clearinghouse 
shall conduct a preliminary review of such application. The review 
shall--
            ``(A) assess the likely scope, duration, and level of risk 
        of any adverse impact of such energy project on military 
        operations and readiness; and
            ``(B) identify any feasible and affordable actions that 
        could be taken by the Department, the developer of such energy 
        project, or others to mitigate the adverse impact and to 
        minimize risks to national security while allowing the energy 
        project to proceed with development.

    ``(2) If the Clearinghouse finds under paragraph (1) that an energy 
project will have an adverse impact on military operations and 
readiness, the Clearinghouse shall issue to the applicant a notice of 
presumed risk that describes the concerns identified by the Department 
in the preliminary review and requests a discussion of possible 
mitigation actions.
    ``(3) At the same time that the Clearinghouse issues to the 
applicant a notice of presumed risk under paragraph (2), the 
Clearinghouse shall provide the same notice to the governor of the State 
in which the project is located and request that the governor provide 
the Clearinghouse any comments the governor believes of relevance to the 
application. The Secretary of Defense shall consider the comments of the 
governor in the Secretary's evaluation of whether the project presents 
an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States and 
shall include the comments with the finding provided to the Secretary of 
Transportation pursuant to section 44718(f) of title 49.
    ``(4) The Clearinghouse shall develop, in coordination with other 
departments and agencies of the Federal Government, an integrated review 
process to ensure timely notification and consideration of energy 
projects filed with the Secretary of Transportation pursuant to section 
44718 of title 49 that may have an adverse impact on military operations 
and readiness.
    ``(5) The Clearinghouse shall establish procedures for the 
Department of Defense for the coordinated consideration of and response 
to a request for a review received from another Federal agency, a State 
government, an Indian tribal government, a local government, a 
landowner, or the developer of an energy project, including guidance to 
personnel at each military installation in the United States on how to 
initiate such procedures and ensure a coordinated Department response.
    ``(6) The Clearinghouse shall develop procedures for conducting 
early outreach to parties carrying out energy projects that could have 
an adverse impact on military operations and readiness and to clearly 
communicate to such parties actions being taken by the Department of 
Defense under this section. The procedures shall provide for filing by 
such parties of a project area and preliminary

develop a comprehensive strategy for addressing the impacts upon the 
military of projects filed with the Secretary of Transportation pursuant 
to section 44718 of title 49.

SEC. 335. REPORT ON EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON DEPARTMENT OF 
                        DEFENSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Secretary of Defense James Mattis has stated: ``It is 
        appropriate for the Combatant Commands to incorporate drivers of 
        instability that impact the security environment in their areas 
        into their planning.''.
            (2) Secretary of Defense James Mattis has stated: ``I agree 
        that the effects of a changing climate -- such as increased 
        maritime access to the Arctic, rising sea levels, 
        desertification, among others -- impact our security 
        situation.''.
            (3) Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Joseph Dunford has 
        stated: ``It's a question, once again, of being forward 
        deployed, forward engaged, and be in a position to respond to 
        the kinds of natural disasters that I think we see as a second 
        or third order effect of climate change.''.
            (4) Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has stated: 
        ``Over the next 20 years and more, certain pressures-population, 
        energy, climate, economic, environmental-could combine with 
        rapid cultural, social, and technological change to produce new 
        sources of deprivation, rage, and instability.''.
            (5) Former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army Gordon Sullivan 
        has stated: ``Climate change is a national security issue. We 
        found that climate instability will lead to instability in 
        geopolitics and impact American military operations around the 
        world.''.
            (6) The Office of the Director of National Intelligence 
        (ODNI) has stated: ``Many countries will encounter climate-
        induced disruptions--such as weather-related disasters, drought, 
        famine, or damage to infrastructure--that stress their capacity 
        to respond, cope with, or adapt. Climate-related impacts will 
        also contribute to increased migration, which can

[[Page 131 STAT. 1358]]

        be particularly disruptive if, for example, demand for food and 
        shelter outstrips the resources available to assist those in 
        need.''.
            (7) The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has stated: 
        ``DOD links changes in precipitation patterns with potential 
        climate change impacts such as changes in the number of 
        consecutive days of high or low precipitation as well as 
        increases in the extent and duration of droughts, with an 
        associated increase in the risk of wildfire. . . this may result 
        in mission vulnerabilities such as reduced live-fire training 
        due to drought and increased wildfire risk.''.
            (8) A three-foot rise in sea levels will threaten the 
        operations of more than 128 United States military sites, and it 
        is possible that many of these at-risk bases could be submerged 
        in the coming years.
            (9) As global temperatures rise, droughts and famines can 
        lead to more failed states, which are breeding grounds of 
        extremist and terrorist organizations.
            (10) In the Marshall Islands, an Air Force radar 
        installation built on an atoll at a cost of $1,000,000,000 is 
        projected to be underwater within two decades.
            (11) In the western United States, drought has amplified the 
        threat of wildfires, and floods have damaged roads, runways, and 
        buildings on military bases.
            (12) In the Arctic, the combination of melting sea ice, 
        thawing permafrost, and sea-level rise is eroding shorelines, 
        which is damaging radar and communication installations, 
        runways, seawalls, and training areas.
            (13) In the Yukon Training Area, units conducting artillery 
        training accidentally started a wildfire despite observing the 
        necessary practices during red flag warning conditions.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) climate change is a direct threat to the national 
        security of the United States and is impacting stability in 
        areas of the world both where the United States Armed Forces are 
        operating today, and where strategic implications for future 
        conflict exist;
            (2) there are complexities in quantifying the cost of 
        climate change on mission resiliency, but the Department of 
        Defense must ensure that it is prepared to conduct operations 
        both today and in the future and that it is prepared to address 
        the effects of a changing climate on threat assessments, 
        resources, and readiness; and
            (3) military installations must be able to effectively 
        prepare to mitigate climate damage in their master planning and 
        infrastructure planning and design, so that they might best 
        consider the weather and natural resources most pertinent to 
        them.

    (c) Report.--
            (1) Report required.--Not later than one year after the date 
        of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall 
        submit to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the 
        House of Representatives a report on vulnerabilities to military 
        installations and combatant commander requirements resulting 
        from climate change over the next 20 years.

                installations within each service based on the effects 
                of rising sea tides, increased flooding, drought, 
                desertification, wildfires, thawing permafrost, and any 
                other categories the Secretary determines necessary.
                    (B) An overview of mitigations that may be necessary 
                to ensure the continued operational viability and to 
                increase the resiliency of the identified vulnerable 
                military installations and the cost of such mitigations.
                    (C) A discussion of the climate-change related 
                effects on the Department, including the increase in the 
                frequency of humanitarian assistance and disaster relief 
                missions and the theater campaign plans, contingency 
                plans, and global posture of the combatant commanders.

        if statutory officer grade caps are relaxed.
            (13) The utility and feasibility of allowing officers to 
        repeatedly and seamlessly transition between active duty and 
        reserve active-status throughout the course of their military 
        careers.

        delivered pursuant to a contract is incomplete or does not 
        comply with the terms of agreements.

    ``(4)(A) In order to achieve the purpose set forth in paragraph (1), 
the Under Secretary shall ensure the cadre has the appropriate number of 
staff and such staff possesses the necessary skills, knowledge, and 
experience to carry out the duties under paragraph (2), including in 
relevant areas of law, contracting, acquisition, logistics, engineering, 
financial analysis, and valuation. The Under Secretary, in coordination 
with the Defense Acquisition University and in consultation with 
academia and industry, shall develop a career path, including 
development opportunities, exchanges, talent management programs, and 
training, for the cadre. The Under Secretary may use existing 
authorities to staff the cadre, including those in subparagraphs (B), 
(C), (D), and (F).
    ``(B) Civilian personnel from within the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense, Joint Staff, military departments, Defense Agencies, and 
combatant commands may be assigned to serve as members of the cadre, 
upon request of the Director.
    ``(C) The Under Secretary may use the authorities for highly 
qualified experts under section 9903 of title 5, to hire experts as 
members of the cadre who are skilled professionals in intellectual 
property and related matters.
    ``(D) The Under Secretary may enter into a contract with a private-
sector entity for specialized expertise to support the cadre. Such 
entity may be considered a covered Government support contractor, as 
defined in section 2320 of this title.
    ``(E) In establishing the cadre, the Under Secretary shall give 
preference to civilian employees of the Department of Defense, rather 
than members of the armed forces, to maintain continuity in the cadre.
    ``(F) The Under Secretary is authorized to use amounts in the 
Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund for the purpose of 
recruitment, training, and retention of the cadre, including paying 
salaries of newly hired members of the cadre for up to three years.''.

            (1) agree not to sell or otherwise make available to any 
        third party any information pertaining to a product ordered by 
        the Federal Government through the commercial e-commerce portal 
        in a manner that identifies the Federal Government, or any of 
        its departments or agencies, as the purchaser, except if the 
        information is needed to process or deliver an order or the 
        Administrator provides written consent;
            (2) agree to take the necessary precautions to safeguard any 
        information pertaining to the Federal Government, especially 
        precautions necessary to protect against national security or 
        cybersecurity threats; and

SEC. 932. REPORT AND SENSE OF CONGRESS ON RESPONSIBILITY FOR 
                        DEVELOPMENTAL TEST AND EVALUATION WITHIN 
                        THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE.

    (a) Report on Plans to Address Developmental Test and Evaluation 
Responsibilities Within the Office of the Secretary of Defense.--

[[Page 131 STAT. 1533]]

            (1) In general.--Not later than 60 days after the date of 
        the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit 
        to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House 
        of Representatives a report containing a strategy to ensure that 
        there is sufficient expertise, oversight, and policy direction 
        on developmental test and evaluation within the Office of the 
        Secretary of Defense after the completion of the reorganization 
        of such Office required under section 901 of the National 
        Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 (Public Law 114-
        328; 130 Stat. 2339).
            (2) Elements.--The report required by paragraph (1) shall 
        address the following:
                    (A) The structure of the roles and responsibilities 
                of the senior Department of Defense official responsible 
                for developmental test and evaluation, as distinct from 
                operational test and evaluation or systems engineering.
                    (B) The location of the senior Department of Defense 
                official responsible for developmental test and 
                evaluation within the organizational structure of the 
                Office of the Secretary of Defense.
                    (C) An estimate of personnel and other resources 
                that should be made available to the senior Department 
                of Defense official responsible for developmental test 
                and evaluation to ensure that such official can provide 
                independent expertise, oversight, and policy direction 
                and guidance Department of Defense-wide.
                    (D) Methods to ensure that the senior Department of 
                Defense official responsible for developmental test and 
                evaluation will be empowered to facilitate Department of 
                Defense-wide efficiencies by helping programs to 
                optimize test designs and activities, including ensuring 
                access to program data and participation in acquisition 
                program oversight.
                    (E) Methods to ensure that an advocate for test and 
                evaluation workforce will continue to exist within the 
                acquisition workforce.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) developmental testing is critical to reducing 
        acquisition program risk by providing valuable information to 
        support sound decision making;
            (2) major defense acquisition programs often do not conduct 
        enough developmental testing, so too many problems are first 
        identified during operational testing, when they are expensive 
        and time-consuming to fix; and
            (3) in order to ensure that effective developmental testing 
        is conducted on major defense acquisition programs, the 
        Secretary of Defense should--
                    (A) carefully consider where the senior Department

SEC. 1085. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING AIRCRAFT CARRIERS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Naval aviation was born in the United States when Eugene 
        Ely launched from the deck of a United States Navy ship on 
        November 14, 1910, in a Curtiss Model D.

[[Page 131 STAT. 1603]]

            (2) In 1915, Cpt. Henry C. Mustin made the first catapult 
        launch aboard a ship underway in a Curtiss Model AB-2, beginning 
        a century of technological advancements that have led to today's 
        Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System.
            (3) In 1924, Lt. Dixie Kiefer made the first night catapult 
        launch in a Vought UO-1 in San Diego harbor.
            (4) The first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, USS 
        Enterprise (CVN 65), was commissioned in 1961, ushering in a new 
        era of the world's most dominant and capable warships.
            (5) In 2013, aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73) 
        provided humanitarian assistance, medical supplies, food, and 
        water to the victims in the Republic of the Philippines of Super 
        Typhoon Haiyan, once again demonstrating the versatility of 
        aircraft carriers for combat, diplomatic, and humanitarian 
        operations.
            (6) In 2017, the first of the next generation of aircraft 
        carriers, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78), was commissioned, marking 
        a continuation of the innovative naval aviation spirit, 
        technological advancement, and war fighting capabilities of 
        aircraft carriers.
            (7) For over 70 years, aircraft carriers have been employed 
        in every major and many smaller conflicts, including World War 
        II, Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Lebanon, Libya, Operation Desert 
        Storm, Afghanistan, Iraq, and the fight against terrorism.
            (8) The United States Navy's aircraft carriers are a 
        cornerstone of the Nation's ability to project its power and 
        strength.
            (9) When aircraft carriers sail the globe they are a 
        statement of national purpose and a symbol of the Nation's 
        industrial strength, competitive edge, and economic prosperity.
            (10) Aircraft carriers are 4.5 acres of sovereign United 
        States territory enabling the Nation to reduce its dependency on 
        other nations while it pursues its national security interests.
            (11) Aircraft carriers enable the United States Armed Forces 
        to carry out operations from international waters, often 
        obviating the need to obtain fly-over rights and land-base 
        rights from other nations.
            (12) Aircraft carriers are modern, mobile United States 
        military bases complete with airfield, hospital, and 
        communications systems from which the United States can strike 
        at its enemies.
            (13) Over 90 percent of world trade is moved by sea, 
        including much of the world's gas and oil supply, and aircraft 
        carriers patrol vital regions of the world to keep shipping 
        lanes open and protect the interests of the United States and

SEC. 1086. SENSE OF CONGRESS RECOGNIZING THE UNITED STATES NAVY 
                          SEABEES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) On March 5, 1942, Navy Construction Force personnel, 
        known as the ``Seabees'', were officially established by the 
        Navy Department.
            (2) The purpose of the Navy Seabees is to build, maintain, 
        and support base infrastructure in remote locations for the Navy 
        and Marine Corps, while simultaneously being capable of engaging 
        in combat operations.
            (3) The Navy Seabees dual-role is exemplified by the Seabee 
        motto Construimus, Batuimus: We Build, We Fight.
            (4) Throughout their history, the Navy Seabees have answered 
        the call of duty to protect the United States and its democratic 
        values both in times of war and peace.
            (5) The Navy Seabees support United States national security 
        at Navy fleet and combatant commands worldwide, through the 
        construction, both on land and underwater, of bases, airfields, 
        roads, bridges, and other infrastructure.
            (6) The Navy Seabees and their families have demonstrated 
        unmatched courage and dedication to sacrifice for the United 
        States, from service in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam to the 
        recent conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere.
            (7) The Navy Seabees exhibit honor, personal courage, and 
        commitment as they sacrifice their personal comfort to keep the 
        United States safe from threats.
            (8) The Navy Seabees continue to display strength, 
        professionalism, and bravery in the all-volunteer force.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress recognizes the United States Navy 
Seabees and the Navy personnel who comprise the construction force for 
the Navy and the Marine Corps as critical elements in deterring 
conflict, overcoming aggression, and rebuilding democratic institutions.

SEC. 1095. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING WORLD WAR I.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The United States declared war against Germany on April 
        6, 1917, to redress wrongs, including Germany's resumption of 
        unrestricted submarine warfare, violation of United States 
        neutrality, meddling in Mexican affairs, and denial of freedom 
        of the seas to nonbelligerent nations.
            (2) The United States associated itself with the allied 
        powers of the United Kingdom and its Commonwealth, France and 
        its colonies, Russia, Italy, and Japan to defeat the German 
        Empire.
            (3) The United States Army, consisting of the Regular Army, 
        National Guard, and Reserve Corps, with the addition of 
        volunteers and the draftees of the National Army, underwent a 
        transformation from a frontier constabulary and coastal defense 
        force to a modern land warfare force.
            (4) Early 20th century military and technological advances 
        resulted in the incorporation of motor transport, aviation, 
        anti-aircraft artillery, tanks, chemical weapons, submarines and 
        anti-submarine warfare, underwater mines, and other innovations 
        into the military arsenal of the United States.
            (5) The need to quickly build a military strength of four 
        million soldiers and half a million sailors required the 
        mobilization of the human resources of the United States, during 
        which members of diverse ethnic groups, races, and creeds, both 
        native-born and immigrant, forged a new American identity.
            (6) The United States Army maintained its defense of 
        American seacoasts, southern border, and overseas possessions, 
        while the Army American Expeditionary Forces arrived in Europe 
        in June 1917 and deployed for combat operations in October.
            (7) By the end of World War I, almost 2,000,000 members of 
        the Army served overseas in the American Expeditionary Forces.
            (8) During World War I, the United States Navy increased in 
        strength from approximately 67,000 sailors and marines to 
        approximately 500,000 sailors and marines by the war's end, and 
        the size of the Navy increased from around 200 ships at the 
        outbreak of war in Europe in 1914, to 342 vessels by the time 
        the United States entered the war, and 774 vessels by the day of 
        the Armistice
            (9) The Navy operated in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, 
        and the North and Mediterranean Seas in cooperation with allied 
        navies.
            (10) The Navy began the fight against the German U-boat 
        menace by first dispatching 34 destroyers stationed specifically 
        for such purpose, which by war's end grew to 110 total 
        destroyers
            (11) Navy vessels escorted troop transports carrying 
        1,250,000 passengers and escorted supply transports carrying 27 
        percent of all cargo shipped to Europe.

[[Page 131 STAT. 1614]]

            (12) The Navy deployed five batteries of large-caliber 
        battleship guns mounted on railroad trains to France for service 
        as long-range artillery for the Army.
            (13) The United States Coast Guard transferred to the 
        operational control of the Navy and augmented that service with 
        officers and sailors, vessels of all types, and shore stations.
            (14) The United States Marine Corps, with an eventual 
        wartime strength of 53,000 officers and men, detached the 5th 
        and 6th regiments and a machine gun battalion to constitute an 
        infantry brigade integrated into the Army's 2d Division for 
        service in France.
            (15) On July 4, 1917, Colonel Charles E. Stanton, one of the 
        officers on the staff of General John Pershing, commander of the 
        American Expeditionary Forces in Europe, famously announced the 
        commitment of the United States to the fight when Colonel 
        Stanton proclaimed upon his arrival in France, ``Lafayette, we 
        are here!''.
            (16) Whereas the American Expeditionary Forces formed three 
        field armies, nine corps and 43 divisions, plus various units of 
        the Services of Supply.
            (17) The American Expeditionary Forces suffered 255,000 
        casualties and over 50,000 non-battle casualties while 
        participating in 13 named campaigns in World War I.
            (18) Participation in World War I resulted in the completion 
        of a period of reform and professionalism that transformed the 
        Armed Forces from a small dispersed organization to a modern 
        industrialized fighting force capable of global reach and 
        influence.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
            (1) honors the memory of the fallen heroes who wore the 
        uniform of the United States Armed Forces during World War I;
            (2) commends the Unites States Armed Forces for preserving 
        and protecting the interests of the United States during World 
        War I;
            (3) commends the brave members of the United States Armed 
        Forces for their courage while preserving the founding 
        principles of the United States at home and abroad during World 
        War I;
            (4) commends the brave members of the United States Armed 
        Forces for preserving and protecting the sea lanes of commerce 
        and communications during World War I that ensured the continued 
        prosperity of the United States;
            (5) celebrates and congratulates the United States Army, 
        Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard during the 
        commemoration of the centennial of World War I for a job well 
        done; and
            (6) calls on all people of the United States to join in the 
        commemoration of the centennial of World War I in events 
        throughout the United States and overseas.

            (1) determines that to do so is in the national security 
        interest of the United States; and
            (2) submits a notification of the waiver, at the time the 
        waiver is invoked, to the Committee on Armed Services and the 
        Committee on Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives and 
        the Committee on Armed Services and the Committee on Foreign 
        Relations of the Senate.
SEC. 1233. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON EUROPEAN SECURITY.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:

[[Page 131 STAT. 1658]]

            (1) Russia's ongoing aggressive actions, including its 
        invasions of Georgia in 2008 and Ukraine in 2014, threats to 
        North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies, rapid military 
        modernization, advanced anti-access and area denial 
        capabilities, increasing military activity in the Arctic region 
        and Mediterranean Sea, evolving nuclear doctrine and 
        capabilities, and violations of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear 
        Forces Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union 
        of Soviet Socialist Republics and the Treaty on Open Skies, 
        constitute a major challenge to the security interests of the 
        United States and its allies and partners in Europe.
            (2) Russia's ongoing malign influence activities, including 
        misinformation, disinformation, propaganda, cyberattacks, 
        election interference, active measures, and hybrid warfare 
        operations pose not only a threat to the security interests of 
        the United States and its allies and partners in Europe, but to 
        the integrity of Western democracies and the institutions and 
        alliances they support.
            (3) Russia's doctrine of ``escalate to de-escalate'', along 
        with its tactical nuclear capabilities, threaten United States 
        forces and European allies and exacerbate the risk of 
        miscalculation and escalation in a crisis.
            (4) The European Deterrence Initiative (EDI) continues to 
        improve credible deterrence against Russian aggression by--
                    (A) training and equipping military forces of NATO 
                allies and European partners;
                    (B) enhancing the indications and warning, 
                interoperability, and logistics capabilities of United 
                States allies and partners; and
                    (C) improving the agility and flexibility of 
                partners and allies to address threats across the full 
                spectrum of domains.
            (5) A strong NATO alliance is the cornerstone of 
        transatlantic security cooperation and the guarantor of peace 
        and stability in Europe.
            (6) The steps taken at the NATO 2014 Wales Summit and the 
        NATO 2016 Warsaw Summit, including the adoption and 
        implementation of the Readiness Action Plan (RAP), the formation 
        of the Very High Joint Readiness Force (VJTF), the Enhanced 
        Forward Presence (EFP) multinational battalions deployed to 
        Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland, and the Tailored Forward 
        Presence in Romania and Bulgaria, have strengthened NATO 
        readiness and collective defense.
            (7) Montenegro's accession into NATO is a strong step toward 
        strengthening the alliance, enhancing security and stability in 
        Southeastern Europe, and reaffirming NATO's commitment to an 
        ``Open Door'' policy.
            (8) Cooperation with non-NATO allies and members of the 
        Partnership for Peace program enhances security and stability in 
        Europe.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United States should support a Europe whole, free, 
        and at peace and the sovereign right of all European states to 
        pursue integration into the Euro-Atlantic community through 
        institutions such as NATO and the European Union;
            (2) the United States should develop and implement a policy 
        and strategy backed by all elements of United States

[[Page 131 STAT. 1659]]

        power to deter and, if necessary, defeat Russian aggression, 
        which will require--
                    (A) enhancing United States military capability and 
                capacity in Europe, including strong consideration of 
                investments in increased permanently-stationed and 
                continued rotational forces as well as the facilities 
                and infrastructure necessary to support United States 
                presence and training with its allies and partners; and
                    (B) strengthening United States capability and 
                capacity to counter malign Russian influence, including 
                Russian hybrid warfare operations short of traditional 
                armed conflict, malicious Russian cyber activities, and 
                Russia's use of misinformation, disinformation, and 
                propaganda;
            (3) investments that support the security and stability of 
        Europe, including the EDI, and support to European countries in 
        further developing their security capabilities, are in the long-
        term national security interests of the United States, and as 
        such, funds for such efforts should be included in the 
        President's base budget request for the Department of Defense in 
        order to fully support United States combat capability in 
        Europe, facilitate efficient planning and execution, and ensure 
        budgetary transparency;
            (4) the United States should maintain an ironclad commitment 
        to its obligations under Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, 
        which declares that an ``armed attack against one or more [NATO 
        allies] shall be considered an attack against them all'';
            (5) while NATO allies have made progress toward high levels 
        of defense spending, it is important that all NATO allies 
        fulfill their commitments to levels and composition of defense 
        expenditures as agreed upon at the NATO 2014 Wales Summit and 
        NATO 2016 Warsaw Summit in order to uphold their obligations 
        under Article 3 of the North Atlantic Treaty to ``maintain and 
        develop their individual and collective capacity to resist armed 
        attack'';
            (6) NATO allies should continue to coordinate defense 
        investments to both improve deterrence against Russian 
        aggression and more appropriately balance defense spending 
        across the alliance; and
            (7) because the NATO alliance defends not only the common 
        security of the United States and its NATO allies, but our 
        common values as well, it is essential that all NATO allies 
        uphold their obligations under the North Atlantic Treaty to 
        ``safeguard the freedom, common heritage and civilization of 
        their peoples, founded on the principles of democracy, 
        individual liberty and the rule of law''.

SEC. 1236. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF NUCLEAR CAPABILITIES 
                          OF NATO.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Warsaw Summit Communique, issued on July 9, 2016, by 
        the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (in this section referred 
        to as ``NATO'') clearly defines the need for, and the importance 
        of, the nuclear mission of NATO.
            (2) The Warsaw Summit Communique states--
                    (A) with respect to the nuclear deterrence 
                capability of NATO, ``As a means to prevent conflict and 
                war, credible deterrence and defence is essential. 
                Therefore, deterrence and defence, based on an 
                appropriate mix of nuclear, conventional, and missile 
                defence capabilities, remains a core element of our 
                overall strategy. . . The fundamental purpose of NATO's 
                nuclear capability is to preserve peace, prevent 
                coercion, and deter aggression. Nuclear weapons are 
                unique. Any employment of nuclear weapons against NATO 
                would fundamentally alter the nature of a conflict. The 
                circumstances in which NATO might have to use nuclear 
                weapons are extremely remote'';
                    (B) with respect to the nature of the nuclear 
                deterrence posture of NATO, ``NATO must continue to 
                adapt its strategy in line with trends in the security 
                environment-including with respect to capabilities and 
                other measures required-to ensure that NATO's overall 
                deterrence and defence posture is capable of addressing 
                potential adversaries' doctrine and capabilities, and 
                that it remains credible, flexible, resilient, and 
                adaptable.''; and
                    (C) with respect to the importance of contributions 
                to the nuclear deterrence mission from across the NATO 
                alliance, ``The strategic forces of the Alliance, 
                particularly those of the United States, are the supreme 
                guarantee of the security of the Allies. The independent 
                strategic nuclear forces of the United Kingdom and 
                France have a deterrent role of their own and contribute 
                to the overall security of the Alliance. These Allies' 
                separate centres of decision-making contribute to 
                deterrence by complicating the calculations of potential 
                adversaries. NATO's nuclear deterrence posture also 
                relies, in part, on United States' nuclear weapons 
                forward-deployed in Europe and on capabilities and 
                infrastructure provided by Allies concerned. These 
                Allies will ensure that all components of NATO's nuclear 
                deterrent remain safe, secure, and effective. That 
                requires sustained leadership focus and institutional 
                excellence for the nuclear deterrence mission and 
                planning guidance aligned with 21st century 
                requirements. The Alliance will ensure the broadest 
                possible participation of Allies concerned in their 
                agreed nuclear burden-sharing arrangements.''.
            (3) Secretary of Defense James Mattis, in response to the 
        advance policy questions for his Senate confirmation hearing on 
        January 12, 2017, stated that--

[[Page 131 STAT. 1663]]

                    (A) ``NATO's nuclear deterrence posture relies in 
                part on U.S. nuclear weapons forward-deployed in Europe 
                and on capabilities and infrastructure provided by NATO 
                allies. These capabilities include dual-capable aircraft 
                that contribute to current burden-sharing arrangements 
                within NATO. In general, we must take care to maintain 
                this particular capability, and to modernize it 
                appropriately and in a timely fashion.''; and
                    (B) the role of the nuclear weapons of the United 
                States is ``to deter nuclear war and to serve as last 
                resort weapons of self-defense. In this sense, U.S. 
                nuclear weapons are fundamental to our nation's security 
                and have historically provided a deterrent against 
                aggression and security assurance to U.S. allies. A 
                robust, flexible, and survivable U.S. nuclear arsenal 
                underpins the U.S. ability to deploy conventional forces 
                worldwide.''.
            (4) On March 28, 2017, General Curtis Scaparrotti, Commander 
        of the United States European Command and the Supreme Allied 
        Commander, Europe, testified to the Committee on Armed Services 
        of the House of Representatives that ``NATO and U.S. nuclear 
        forces continue to be a vital component of our deterrence. Our 
        modernization efforts are crucial; we must preserve a ready, 
        credible, and safe nuclear capability.''.
            (5) The Russian Federation is currently undergoing 
        significant modernization and recapitalization of all three legs 
        of its nuclear triad, continues to field and modernize a large 
        variety of non-strategic nuclear weapons, and is developing and 
        deploying new and unique nuclear capabilities.
            (6) Russia remains in violation of the INF Treaty due to the 
        development, testing, and, most recently, the operational 
        deployment of ground-launched cruise missiles in violation of 
        the INF Treaty.
            (7) On March 28, 2017, General Paul Selva, Vice Chairman of 
        the Joint Chiefs of Staff, described the security consequences 
        of the deployment of such INF Treaty-violating missiles, 
        testifying to the Committee on Armed Services of the House of 
        Representatives that ``our assessment of the impact is that it 
        more threatens NATO and infrastructure within the European 
        continent than any other...area of the world that we have 
        national interests in or alliance interests in.''.
            (8) On March 28, 2017, General Curtis Scaparrotti, in 
        testimony before the Committee on Armed Services of the House of 
        Representatives, responded to a question asking if Russia 
        intends to return to compliance with the INF Treaty by stating, 
        ``I don't have any indication that they will at this time.''.
            (9) Rhetoric from Russian officials has demonstrated that 
        Moscow has sought to leverage its nuclear arsenal to threaten 
        and intimidate neighboring countries, including members of NATO, 
        as was the case when the Russian Ambassador to Denmark stated, 
        ``Danish warships will be targets for Russian nuclear missiles'' 
        in response to Denmark's potential cooperation in the NATO 
        missile defense system.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the nuclear and conventional deterrence capabilities of 
        NATO are of critical importance to the security of the United 
        States and of the NATO alliance, and must continue to adapt to 
        the changed security environment in Europe;

[[Page 131 STAT. 1664]]

            (2) the ability of the United States to forward-deploy dual-
        capable aircraft and nuclear weapons, and of select members of 
        NATO to participate in the nuclear deterrence mission of NATO by 
        hosting forward-deployed nuclear weapons of the United States or 
        operating dual-capable aircraft, is central to the credibility 
        of the nuclear deterrence and defense posture of NATO;
            (3) the strategic forces of the United States, the 
        independent nuclear forces of the United Kingdom and the French 
        Republic, and the dual-capable aircraft operated by the United 
        States and other members of NATO constitute foundational 
        elements of the nuclear deterrence and defense posture of NATO;
            (4) NATO should modernize its nuclear-related infrastructure 
        to ensure the highest-level of safety and security;
            (5) effective deterrence requires NATO to conduct nuclear 
        planning and exercises aligned with 21st century requirements 
        and modernize nuclear-related capabilities and infrastructure, 
        including dual-capable aircraft, command and control networks, 
        and facilities; and
            (6) to ensure the continued credibility of the deterrence 
        and defense posture of NATO, the planned completion of F-35A 
        aircraft development and testing, as well as the delivery of 
        such aircraft to members of NATO, must not be delayed.

    (c) INF Treaty Defined.--In this section, the term ``INF Treaty'' 
means the Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union of 
Soviet Socialist Republics on the Elimination of Their Intermediate-
Range and Shorter-Range Missiles, commonly referred to as the

December 8, 1987, and entered into force June 1, 1988.

Subtitle E--Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty Preservation 
                               Act of 2017

SEC. 1241. <<NOTE: 22 USC 2551 note.>>  SHORT TITLE.

    This subtitle may be cited as the ``Intermediate-Range Nuclear 
Forces (INF) Treaty Preservation Act of 2017''.
SEC. 1242. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The 2014, 2015, and 2016 Department of State reports 
        entitled, ``Adherence to and Compliance with Arms Control, 
        Nonproliferation, and Disarmament Agreements and Commitments'', 
        all stated that the United States has determined that ``the 
        Russian Federation is in violation of its obligations under the 
        INF Treaty not to possess, produce, or flight-test a ground-
        launched cruise missile (GLCM) with a range capability of 500 km 
        to 5,500 km, or to possess or produce launchers of such 
        missiles''.
            (2) The 2016 report also noted that ``the cruise missile 
        developed by Russia meets the INF Treaty definition of a ground-
        launched cruise missile with a range capability of 500 km to 
        5,500 km, and as such, all missiles of that type, and all 
        launchers of the type used or tested to launch such a missile, 
        are prohibited under the provisions of the INF Treaty''.
            (3) Potential consistency and compliance concerns regarding 
        the INF Treaty noncompliant GLCM have existed since 2008, were 
        not officially raised with the Russian Federation until 2013, 
        and were not briefed to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization 
        (NATO) until January 2014.
            (4) The United States Government is aware of other 
        consistency and compliance concerns regarding Russia actions 
        vis-a-vis its INF Treaty obligations.

[[Page 131 STAT. 1672]]

            (5) Since 2013, senior United States officials, including 
        the President, the Secretary of State, and the Chairman of the 
        Joint Chiefs of Staff, have raised Russian noncompliance with 
        the INF Treaty to their counterparts, but no progress has been 
        made in bringing the Russian Federation back into compliance 
        with the INF Treaty.
            (6) In April 2014, General Breedlove, the Supreme Allied 
        Commander Europe, correctly stated, ``A weapon capability that 
        violates the INF, that is introduced into the greater European 
        land mass, is absolutely a tool that will have to be dealt with 
        . . . It can't go unanswered.''.
            (7) The Department of Defense in its September 2013 report, 
        Report on Conventional Prompt Global Strike Options if Exempt 
        from the Restrictions of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces 
        Treaty Between the United States of America and the Union of 
        Soviet Socialist Republics, stated that it has multiple 
        validated military requirement gaps due to the prohibitions 
        imposed on the United States as a result of its compliance with 
        the INF Treaty.
            (8) It is not in the national security interests of the 
        United States to be unilaterally legally prohibited from 
        developing dual-capable ground-launched cruise missiles with 
        ranges between 500 and 5,500 kilometers, while Russia makes 
        advances in developing and fielding this class of weapon 
        systems, and such unilateral limitation cannot be allowed to 
        continue indefinitely.
            (9) Admiral Harry Harris, Jr., Commander of the United 
        States Pacific Command, testified before the Senate Armed 
        Services Committee on April 27, 2017, that ``[W]e're in a multi-
        polar world where we have a lot of countries who are developing 
        these weapons, including China, that I worry about. And I worry 
        about their DF-21 and DF-26 missile programs, their anti-carrier 
        ballistic missile programs, if you will. INF doesn't address 
        missiles launched from ships or airplanes, but it focuses on 
        those land-based systems. I think there's goodness in the INF 
        treaty, anything you can do to limit nuclear weapons writ-large 
        is generally good. But the aspects of the INF Treaty that limit 
        our ability to counter Chinese and other countries' land-based 
        missiles, I think, is problematic.''.
            (10) A material breach of the INF Treaty by the Russian 
        Federation affords the United States the right to invoke legal 
        countermeasures which include suspension of the treaty in whole 
        or in part.
            (11) Article XV of the INF Treaty provides that ``Each Party 
        shall, in exercising its national sovereignty, have the right to 
        withdraw from this Treaty if it decides that extraordinary 
        events related to the subject matter of this Treaty have 
        jeopardized its supreme interests.''.

                          THE INF TREATY.

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the actions undertaken by the Russian Federation in 
        violation of the INF Treaty constitute a material breach of the 
        treaty;
            (2) in light of the Russian Federation's material breach of 
        the INF Treaty, the United States is legally entitled to

[[Page 131 STAT. 1673]]

        suspend the operation of the INF Treaty in whole or in part for 
        so long as the Russian Federation continues to be in material 
        breach; and
            (3) for so long as the Russian Federation remains in 
        noncompliance with the INF Treaty, the United States should take 
        actions to encourage the Russian Federation return to 
        compliance, including by--
                    (A) providing additional funds for the capabilities 
                identified in section 1243(d) of the National Defense 
                Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-
                92; 129 Stat. 1062); and
                    (B) seeking additional missile defense assets in the 
                European theater to protect United States and NATO 
                forces from ground-launched missile systems of the 
                Russian Federation that are in noncompliance with the 
                INF Treaty.

    (b) Availability of Funds.--Of the funds authorized to be 
appropriated by this Act for fiscal year 2018 for research, development, 
test, and evaluation, as specified in the funding table in division D, 
$58,000,000 shall be made available for the development of--
            (1) active defenses to counter ground-launched missile 
        systems with ranges between 500 and 5,500 kilometers;
            (2) counterforce capabilities to prevent attacks from these 
        missiles; and
            (3) countervailing strike capabilities to enhance the 
        capabilities of the United States identified in section 1243(d) 
        of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 
        (Public Law 114-92; 129 Stat. 1062).

    (c) Development of INF Range Ground-launched Missile System.--
            (1) Establishment of a program of record.--The Secretary of 
        Defense shall establish a program of record to develop a 
        conventional road-mobile ground-launched cruise missile system 
        with a range of between 500 to 5,500 kilometers, including 
        research and development activities with respect to such cruise 
        missile system.
            (2) Report required.--Not later than 120 days after the date 
        of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall 
        submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the 
        cost and schedule for, and feasibility of, modifying United 
        States missile systems in existence or planned as of such date 
        of enactment for ground launch with a range of between 500 and 
        5,500 kilometers as compared with the cost and schedule for, and 
        feasibility of, developing a new ground-launched missile using 
        new technology with the same range.

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the security, stability, and prosperity of the Indo-
        Asia-Pacific region are vital to the national interests of the 
        United States;
            (2) the United States should maintain a military capability 
        in the region that is able to project power, deter acts of 
        aggression, and respond, if necessary, to regional threats;
            (3) the defense of the United States and its allies against 
        North Korean or any other aggression remains a top priority;
            (4) continuing efforts by the Department of Defense to 
        realign forces, commit additional assets, and increase 
        investments to the Indo-Asia-Pacific region are necessary to 
        maintain a robust United States commitment to the region;
            (5) the Secretary of Defense should--
                    (A) assess the current United States force posture 
                in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region to ensure that the 
                United States maintains an appropriate forward presence 
                in the region;
                    (B) invest in critical munitions, undersea warfare

                ranging from grey zone to high-end near-peer conflict;
            (6) the United States commitment to freedom of navigation, 
        ensuring free access to sea lanes and overflights to the United 
        States naval and air forces, remains a core security interest; 
        and
            (7) the United States should continue to engage in the Indo-
        Asia-Pacific region by strengthening alliances and partnerships, 
        supporting regional institutions and bodies such as the 
        Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), building

                          ASIA-PACIFIC REGION.

    (a) Finding.--Congress recognizes that Democratic People's Republic 
of Korea successful test of an intercontinental ballistic

[[Page 131 STAT. 1680]]

missile (ICBM) and nuclear explosive tests constitute a grave and 
imminent threat to United States security and to the security of United 
States allies and partners in the Asia-Pacific region.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the nuclear and missile program of North Korea is one of 
        the most dangerous national security threats facing the United 
        States today and the defense of the Republic of Korea and Japan 
        must remain a top priority for the administration;
            (2) given the threat posed by North Korea to our allies, the 
        United States maintains an unwavering and steadfast commitment 
        to the policy of extended deterrence, especially with respect to 
        South Korea and Japan;
            (3) the Department of Defense's Nuclear Posture Review that 
        is to be completed in 2017 should fully consider--
                    (A) the perspectives of key allies and partners of 
                the United States in the Asia-Pacific region; and

                enduring commitment of the United States to provide its 
                full range of defensive capabilities;
            (4) bilateral extended deterrence dialogues and discussions 
        with South Korea and Japan are of great value to the United 
        States and its allies and partners in the Asia-Pacific region 
        and must remain a central component of these relationships;
            (5) the United States must sustain and modernize current 
        United States nuclear capabilities to ensure the extended 
        deterrence commitments of the United States remain credible and 
        executable; and
            (6) the timely development, production, and deployment of 
        modern nuclear-capable aircraft are fundamental to ensure that 
        the United States remains able to meet extended deterrence 
        requirements in the Asia-Pacific region far into the future.

    (c) Plan.--Not later than 30 days after the date of the enactment of 
this Act, the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Commander 
of the United States Pacific Command and the Commander of the United 
States Strategic Command, shall submit to the congressional defense 
committees a plan to enhance the extended deterrence and assurance 
capabilities of the United States in the Asia-Pacific region.

deterrence of North Korean aggression and providing increased assurance 
to United States allies in the Asia-Pacific region, including the 
following:
            (1) Increased visible presence of key United States military 
        assets, such as missile defenses, long-range strike assets, and 
        intermediate-range strike assets to the region.
            (2) Increased military cooperation, exercises, and 
        integration of defenses with allies in the region.
            (3) Increased foreign military sales to allies in the 
        region.
            (4) Planning for, exercising, or deploying dual-capable 
        aircraft to the region.
            (5) Any necessary modifications to the United States nuclear 
        force posture, including re-deployment of submarine-launched 
        nuclear cruise missiles to the region.
            (6) Such other actions the Secretary considers appropriate 
        to strengthen extended deterrence and assurance in the region.

may contain a classified annex.

SEC. 1255. SENSE OF CONGRESS REAFFIRMING SECURITY COMMITMENTS TO 
                          THE GOVERNMENTS OF JAPAN AND SOUTH KOREA 
                          AND TRILATERAL COOPERATION BETWEEN THE 
                          UNITED STATES, JAPAN, AND SOUTH KOREA.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United States values its alliances with the 
        Governments of Japan and the Republic of Korea, based on shared 
        values of democracy, the rule of law, free and open markets, and 
        respect for human rights;
            (2) the United States reaffirms its commitment to these 
        alliances with Japan and South Korea, which are cornerstones for 
        the preservation of peace and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific 
        region and throughout the world;
            (3) the United States recognizes the substantial financial 
        commitments of Japan and South Korea to the maintenance of 
        United States forces in these countries, making them among the 
        most significant burden-sharing partners of the United States;
            (4) the United States, South Korea, and Japan are 
        indispensable partners in tackling global challenges, including 
        combating the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, 
        preventing piracy, assisting the victims of conflict and 
        disaster worldwide, safeguarding maritime security, and ensuring 
        freedom of navigation, commerce, and overflight in the Indo-
        Asia-Pacific region;
            (5) the United States reaffirms its commitment to Article V 
        of the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between the 
        United States of America and Japan, which applies to the 
        Japanese-administered Senkaku Islands;
            (6) although the United States Government does not take a 
        position on sovereignty of the Senkaku Islands, the United 
        States acknowledges that the islands are under the 
        administration of Japan and opposes any unilateral actions that 
        would seek to undermine their administration by Japan, and any 
        such unilateral actions of a third party will not affect United 
        States' acknowledgement of the administration of Japan over the 
        Senkaku Islands;
            (7) the United States supports continued strengthening of 
        defense cooperation with Japan in accordance with the 2015 U.S.-
        Japan Defense Guidelines and additional measures to strengthen 
        this defense cooperation, including by expanding foreign 
        military sales, establishing new cooperative technology 
        development programs, increasing military exercises, or other 
        actions as appropriate;
            (8) the United States and South Korea share deep concerns 
        that the nuclear and ballistic missile programs of North Korea 
        and its repeated provocations pose great threats to peace and 
        stability on the Korean Peninsula, and the United States 
        recognizes that South Korea has made important commitments to 
        the bilateral security alliance, including by hosting a Terminal 
        High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system;

[[Page 131 STAT. 1682]]

            (9) the United States and South Korea should continue 
        further defense cooperation, by enhancing mutual security based 
        on the Mutual Defense Treaty between the United States and the 
        Republic of Korea and investing in capabilities critical to the

SEC. 1671. NUCLEAR POSTURE REVIEW.

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the Nuclear 
Posture Review should--
            (1) take into account the obligations of the United States 
        under treaties ratified by and with the advice and consent of 
        the Senate;
            (2) examine the tools required to sustain the stockpile 
        stewardship program under section 4201 of the Atomic Energy 
        Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2521) in the future to ensure the safety, 
        security, and effectiveness of the nuclear arsenal of the United 
        States; and
            (3) consider input and views from all relevant stakeholders 
        in the United States Government, including the Secretary of 
        Energy, the Secretary of State, and the Administrator for 
        Nuclear Security, on issues pertaining to nuclear deterrence, 
        nuclear nonproliferation, and nuclear arms control.

SEC. 1672. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF INDEPENDENT NUCLEAR 
                          DETERRENT OF UNITED KINGDOM.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) nuclear deterrence is foundational to the defense and 
        security of the United States and the security of the United 
        States is enhanced by a nuclear-armed ally with common values 
        and security priorities;
            (2) the United States sees the nuclear deterrent of the 
        United Kingdom as central to transatlantic security and welcomes 
        the commitment of the United Kingdom to the North Atlantic 
        Treaty Organization (NATO) to continue to spend two percent of 
        gross domestic product on defense;
            (3) in the face of increasing threats, the presence of 
        credible nuclear deterrent forces of the United Kingdom is 
        essential to international stability and for NATO;
            (4) the commitment of the United Kingdom to sustaining an 
        independent nuclear deterrent, deployed continuously at sea, 
        provides a vital second decision-making point within the 
        deterrent capability of NATO, creating essential uncertainty in 
        the mind of any potential adversary;
            (5) the United States Navy must continue to execute the 
        Columbia-class submarine program on time and within budget to 
        ensure that the sea-based leg of the nuclear triad of the United 
        States is sustained and the program delivers a Common Missile 
        Compartment, the Trident II (D5) Strategic Weapon System, and 
        associated equipment and production capabilities, to support the 
        successful development and deployment of the Dreadnought 
        submarines of the United Kingdom;
            (6) the support that the United Kingdom provides to 
        deployments of strategic ships and aircraft of the United States 
        at specialized facilities enables a vital part of the deterrence 
        posture of the United States as well as mutual deterrence of

[[Page 131 STAT. 1771]]

        adversaries and assurance to the allies and partners of the 
        United States; and
            (7) the collaboration of the United Kingdom with the United 
        States on the military use of atomic energy ensures a peer in 
        the technology and science of nuclear weapons and provides 
        independent expert peer review of the nuclear programs of the 
        United States, ensuring resilience and cost effectiveness to the 
        nuclear defense programs of both nations.

SEC. 1714. REPORT ON UTILIZATION OF SMALL BUSINESS CONCERNS FOR 
                          FEDERAL CONTRACTS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) since the passage of the Budget Control Act of 2011 
        (Public Law 112-25; 125 Stat. 240), many Federal agencies have 
        started favoring longer-term Federal contracts, including 
        multiple award contracts, over direct individual awards;
            (2) these multiple award contracts have grown to more than 
        one-fifth of Federal contract spending, with the fastest growing 
        multiple award contracts each surpassing $100,000,000 in 
        obligations for the first time between 2013 and 2014;
            (3) in fiscal year 2017, 17 of the 20 largest Federal 
        contract opportunities are multiple award contracts;
            (4) while Federal agencies may choose to use any or all of 
        the various socioeconomic groups on a multiple award contract, 
        the Small Business Administration only examines the performance 
        of socioeconomic groups through the small business procurement 
        scorecard and does not examine potential opportunities for those 
        groups; and
            (5) Congress and the Department of Justice have been clear 
        that no individual socioeconomic group shall be given preference 
        over another.

    (b) Definitions.--In this section--
            (1) the term ``Administrator'' means the Administrator of 
        the Small Business Administration;
            (2) the term ``covered small business concerns'' means--
                    (A) qualified HUBZone small business concerns;
                    (B) small business concerns owned and controlled by 
                service-disabled veterans;
                    (C) small business concerns owned and controlled by 
                women; and
                    (D) small business concerns owned and controlled by 
                socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, as 
                defined under section 8(d)(3)(C) of the Small Business 
                Act (15 U.S.C. 637(d)(3)(C)); and

[[Page 131 STAT. 1814]]

            (3) the terms ``qualified HUBZone small business concern'', 
        ``small business concern'', ``small business concern owned and 
        controlled by service-disabled veterans'', and ``small business 
        concern owned and controlled by women'' have the meanings given 
        those terms in section 3 of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 
        632).

    (c) Report.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than 180 days after the date of 
        enactment of this Act, the Administrator shall submit to the 
        Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship of the Senate 
        and the Committee on Small Business of the House of 
        Representatives a report that includes--
                    (A) a determination as to whether small business 
                concerns and each category of covered small business 
                concern are being utilized in a significant portion of 
                the multiple award contracts awarded by the Federal 
                Government, including--
                          (i) whether awards are reserved for concerns 
                      in 1 or more of those categories; and
                          (ii) whether concerns in each such category 
                      are given the opportunity to perform on multiple 
                      award contracts;
                    (B) a determination as to whether performance 
                requirements for multiple award contracts, as in effect 
                on the day before the date of enactment of this Act, are 
                feasible and appropriate for small business concerns and 
                covered small business concerns; and
                    (C) any additional information as the Administrator 
                may determine necessary.
            (2) Requirement.--In making the determinations required 
        under paragraph (1), the Administrator shall use information--
                    (A) from multiple award contracts with varied 
                assigned North American Industry Classification System 
                codes; and
                    (B) about the awards of multiple award contracts 
                from not less than eight Federal agencies.

        and exception reports), including transactions that

[[Page 131 STAT. 1816]]

        occur with high-risk activities, and suspicious timing or 
        amounts of cash withdrawals or advances;
            (3) provide for the appropriate sharing of information

SEC. 3111. NUCLEAR SECURITY ENTERPRISE INFRASTRUCTURE 
                          MODERNIZATION INITIATIVE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) On September 7, 2016, during testimony before the 
        Subcommittee on Strategic Forces of the Committee on Armed 
        Services of the House of Representatives--
                    (A) the Administrator for Nuclear Security, Frank 
                Klotz, said--
                          (i) ``Our infrastructure is extensive, 
                      complex, and, in many critical areas, several 
                      decades old. More than half of NNSA's 
                      approximately 6,000 real property assets are over 
                      40 years old, and nearly 30 percent date back to 
                      the Manhattan Project era. Many of the 
                      enterprise's critical utility, safety, and support 
                      systems are failing at an increasing and 
                      unpredictable rate, which poses both programmatic 
                      and safety risk.''; and

[[Page 131 STAT. 1880]]

                          (ii) ``I can think of no greater threat to the 
                      nuclear security enterprise than the state of 
                      NNSA's infrastructure.'';
                    (B) the President and Chief Executive Officer of 
                Consolidated Nuclear Security, Morgan Smith, said, 
                ``Many key facilities at both [Pantex and Y-12] were 
                constructed in the 1940s and were intended to operate 
                for as little as one decade. Many facilities and their 
                supporting infrastructure have exceeded or far exceeded 
                their expected life, and major systems within the 
                facilities are beginning to fail.''; and
                    (C) the Director of Los Alamos National Laboratory, 
                Dr. Charlie McMillan, said, ``One of the things that 
                keeps me up at night is the realization that essential 
                capabilities are held at risk by the possibility of such 
                failures; in many cases, our enterprise has a single 
                point of failure.''.
            (2) In a letter sent on December 23, 2015, by the Secretary 
        of Energy, Ernest Moniz, to the Director of the Office of 
        Management and Budget, Shaun Donovan, the Secretary said, ``A 
        majority of the National Nuclear Security Administration's 
        (NNSA) facilities and systems are well beyond end-of-life.... 
        Infrastructure problems such as falling ceilings are increasing 
        in frequency and severity, unacceptably risking the safety and 
        security of both personnel and material at NNSA facilities, as 
        well as in some instances, potential offsite risks. The entire 
        complex could be placed at risk if there is a single failure 
        where a single point would disrupt a critical link in 
        infrastructure.''.
            (3) The Nuclear Posture Review published in April 2010 
        stated that ``In order to sustain a safe, secure, and effective 
        U.S. nuclear stockpile as long as nuclear weapons exist, the 
        United States must possess a modern physical infrastructure.... 
        Today's nuclear complex, however, has fallen into neglect. 
        Although substantial science, technology, and engineering 
        investments were made over the last decade under the auspices of 
        the Stockpile Stewardship Program, the complex still includes 
        many oversized and costly-to maintain facilities built during 
        the 1940s and 1950s. Some facilities needed for working with 
        plutonium and uranium date back to the Manhattan Project. 
        Safety, security, and environmental issues associated with these 
        aging facilities are mounting, as are the costs of addressing 
        them.''.
            (4) In 2009, the bipartisan Congressional Commission on the 
        Strategic Posture of the United States established by section 
        1062 of the National Defense Authorization for Fiscal Year 2008 
        (Public Law 110-181; 122 Stat. 319) stated, with regards to key 
        production facilities, that ``existing facilities are genuinely 
        decrepit and are maintained in a safe and secure manner only at 
        high cost''.
            (5) Previous efforts to address the deferred maintenance and 
        repair challenges within the nuclear security enterprise, such 
        as the Facilities Infrastructure and Recapitalization Program 
        and the recent halt in the growth of backlog metrics, are 
        laudable but insufficient for the magnitude of the problem.
            (6) Recent figures provided by the Administrator for Nuclear 
        Security estimate the backlog of deferred maintenance

[[Page 131 STAT. 1881]]

        and repair needs of the nuclear security enterprise to be 
        approximately $3,700,000,000.

    (b) <<NOTE: 50 USC 2402 note.>>  Infrastructure Modernization 
Initiative.--
            (1) Establishment.--Not later than 30 days after the date of 
        the enactment of this Act, the Administrator for Nuclear 
        Security shall establish and carry out a program, to be known as 
        the ``Infrastructure Modernization Initiative'', to reduce the 
        backlog of deferred maintenance and repair needs of the nuclear 
        security enterprise (as defined in section 4002(6) of the Atomic 
        Energy Defense Act (50 U.S.C. 2501(6))). In carrying out that 
        program, the Administrator shall establish and execute 
        infrastructure modernization milestones that reduce the deferred 
        maintenance and repair needs of the nuclear security enterprise 
        by not less than 30 percent by 2025.
            (2) Authorities.--
                    (A) Process.--
                          (i) In general.--The Secretary of Energy shall 
                      provide to the Administrator a process that will 
                      enhance or streamline the ability of the 
                      Administrator to carry out the program under 
                      paragraph (1) in an efficient and effective 
                      manner, including with respect to--
                                    (I) the demolition or construction 
                                of non-nuclear facilities of the 
                                Administration that have a total 
                                estimated project cost of less than 
                                $100,000,000; and
                                    (II) the decontamination, 
                                decommissioning, and demolition (to be 
                                performed in accordance with applicable 
                                health and safety standards used by the 
                                Defense Environmental Cleanup Program) 
                                of process-contaminated facilities of 
                                the Administration that have a total 
                                estimated project cost of less than 
                                $50,000,000.
                          (ii) Funding.--Clause (i) may be carried out 
                      using amounts authorized to be appropriated for 
                      fiscal year 2018 or any subsequent fiscal year.
                    (B) Application of certain requirements.--For 
                purposes of the Management Procedures Memorandum 2015-01 
                of the Office of Management and Budget, or a successor 
                memorandum, in carrying out the program under paragraph 
                (1), the Administrator may--
                          (i) perform new construction during a fiscal 
                      year that differs from the fiscal year of 
                      corresponding facility demolition;
                          (ii) perform demolition of different facility 
                      category codes and have that demolition credit 
                      count towards the construction of new facilities 
                      with a different facility category code; and
                          (iii) have the net reduction in infrastructure 
                      footprint for the five fiscal years prior to the 
                      date of the enactment of this Act, and the 
                      demolition during the five fiscal years following 
                      such date of enactment, considered as a factor for 
                      the purpose of meeting the intent of such 
                      memorandum.
            (3) Initial plan.--Not later than March 1, 2018, the 
        Administrator shall submit to the congressional defense 
        committees an initial plan to carry out the program under

                          ``(I) the metrics (based on industry best 
                      practices) used by the Administrator to determine 
                      the infrastructure deferred maintenance and repair 
                      needs of the nuclear security enterprise; and
                          ``(II) the percentage of replacement plant 
                      value being spent on maintenance and repair needs 
                      of the nuclear security enterprise; and

                      of the Administration and the employees of such 
                      contractors to participate in rotational 
                      assignments; and
                          (ii) the departments and agencies of the 
                      Federal Government specified in such paragraph to 
                      facilitate such assignments;
                    (B) providing professional and leadership 
                development opportunities during such assignments;
                    (C) using details and other applicable authorities 
                and programs, including the mobility program under 
                subchapter VI of chapter 33 of title 5, United States 
                Code (commonly referred to as the ``Intergovernmental 
                Personnel Act Mobility Program''); and
                    (D) taking such other actions as the Administrator 
                determines appropriate to increase the use of such 
                rotational assignments.

    (c) Red-team Analysis.--
            (1) Analysis.--The Director for Cost Estimating and Program 
        Evaluation of the National Nuclear Security Administration shall

                    (A) the number of Federal employees within each 
                program of the Administration, and whether such numbers 
                are appropriately balanced with respect to the size, 
                scope, functions, budgets, and risks, of the program; 
                and
                    (B) the number of Senior Executive Service positions 
                (as defined in section 3132(a) of title 5, United States

SEC. 3118. <<NOTE: 50 USC 2521 note.>>  NUCLEAR WARHEAD DESIGN 
                          COMPETITION.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) In January 2016, the co-chairs of a congressionally 
        mandated study panel from the National Academies of Science 
        testified to the following before the Committee on Armed 
        Services of the House of Representatives:
                    (A) ``The National Nuclear Security Administration 
                (NNSA) complex must engage in robust design competitions 
                in order to exercise the design and production skills 
                that underpin stockpile stewardship and are necessary to 
                meet evolving threats.''.
                    (B) ``To exercise the full set of design skills 
                necessary for an effective nuclear deterrent, the NNSA 
                should develop and conduct the first in what the 
                committee envisions to be a series of design 
                competitions that integrate the full end-to-end process 
                from novel design conception through engineering, 
                building, and non-nuclear testing of a prototype.''.
            (2) In March 2016 testimony before the Committee on Armed 
        Services of the House of Representatives regarding a

[[Page 131 STAT. 1891]]

        December 2016 Defense Science Board report entitled, ``Seven 
        Defense Priorities for the New Administration'', members of that 
        Board said the following:
                    (A) ``A key contributor to nuclear deterrence is the 
                continuous, adaptable exercise of the development, 
                design, and production functions for nuclear weapons in 
                both the DOD and DOE.... Yet the DOE laboratories and 
                DOD contractor community have done little integrated 
                design and development work outside of life extension 
                for 25 years, let alone concept development that could 
                serve as a hedge to surprise.''.
                    (B) ``The Defense Science Board believes that the 
                triad's complementary features remain robust tenets for 
                the design of a future force. Replacing our current, 
                aging force is essential, but not sufficient in the more 
                complex nuclear environment we now face to provide the 
                adaptability or flexibility to confidently hold at risk 
                what adversaries value. In particular, if the threat 
                evolves in ways that favorably change the cost/benefit 
                calculus in the view of an adversary's leadership, then 
                we should be in a position to quickly restore a credible 
                deterrence posture.''.
            (3) In a memorandum dated May 9, 2014, then-Secretary of 
        Energy Ernie Moniz said the following:
                    (A) ``If nuclear military capabilities are to 
                provide deterrence for the nation they need to be 
                relevant to the emerging global strategic environment. 
                The current stockpile was designed to meet the needs of 
                a bipolar world with roots in the Cold War era. A more 
                complex, chaotic, and dynamic security environment is 
                emerging. In order to uphold the Department's mission to 
                ensure an effective nuclear deterrent.... we must ensure 
                our nuclear capabilities meet the challenges of known 
                and potential geopolitical and technological trends. 
                Therefore we must look ahead, using the expertise of our 
                laboratories, to how the capabilities that may be 
                employed by other nations could impact deterrence over 
                the next several decades.''.
                    (B) ``We must challenge our thinking about our 
                programs of record in order to permit foresighted 
                actions that may reduce, in the coming decades, the 
                chances for surprise and that buttress deterrence.''.

    (b) Design Competition.--
            (1) In general.--In accordance with paragraph (2), the 
        Administrator for Nuclear Security, in coordination with the 
        Chairman of the Nuclear Weapons Council, shall carry out a new 
        and comprehensive design competition for a nuclear warhead that 
        could be employed on ballistic missiles of the United States by 
        2030. Such competition shall--
                    (A) examine options for warhead design and related 
                delivery system requirements in the 2030s, including--
                          (i) life extension of existing weapons;
                          (ii) new capabilities; and
                          (iii) such other concepts as the Administrator 
                      and the Chairman determine necessary to fully 
                      exercise and create responsive design capabilities 
                      in the enterprise and ensure a robust nuclear 
                      deterrent into the 2030s;

[[Page 131 STAT. 1892]]

                    (B) assess how the capabilities and defenses that 
                may be employed by other countries could impact 
                deterrence in 2030 and beyond and how such threats could 
                be addressed or mitigated in the warhead and related 
                delivery systems;
                    (C) exercise the full set of design skills necessary 
                for an effective nuclear deterrent and responsive 
                enterprise through production of conceptual designs and, 
                as the Administrator determines appropriate, production 
                of non-nuclear prototypes of components or subsystems; 
                and
                    (D) examine and recommend actions for significantly 
                shortening timelines and significantly reducing costs 
                associated with design, development, certification, and 
                production of the warhead, without reducing worker or 
                public health and safety.
            (2) Timing.--The Administrator shall--
                    (A) during fiscal year 2018, develop a plan to carry 
                out paragraph (1); and
                    (B) during fiscal year 2019, implement such plan.

    (c) Briefing.--Not later than March 1, 2018, the Administrator, in 
coordination with the Chairman, shall provide a briefing to the 
congressional defense committees on the plan of the Administrator to 
carry out the warhead design competition under subsection (b). Such 
briefing shall include an assessment of the costs, benefits, risks, and 
opportunities of such plan, particularly impacts to ongoing life 
extension programs and infrastructure projects.

                          NUCLEAR WEAPONS AND FISSILE MATERIAL.

    (a) Findings and Sense of Congress.--
            (1) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                    (A) A January 2014 Defense Science Board report 
                found that ``The nuclear future will not be a linear 
                extrapolation of the past... [and] [t]he technologies 
                and processes designed for current treaty verification 
                and inspections are inadequate to future monitoring 
                realities.''.
                    (B) Section 3133 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. 
                ``Buck'' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for 
                Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291; 127 Stat. 3896) 
                required an interagency plan for monitoring of nuclear 
                weapons and fissile material, and section 3132 of the 
                National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 
                (Public Law 114-328; 130 Stat. 2768) required an update 
                of such plan. In both instances, the reports submitted 
                failed to answer the congressional requirements, and 
                instead provided only a brief summary of the National 
                Security Council structure and processes.
            (2) Sense of congress.--It is the sense of Congress that 
        verification, detection, and monitoring of nuclear weapons and 
        fissile material should be a priority for national security, and 
        that the reports submitted to date do not reflect this priority, 
        or the current and planned initiatives related to nuclear 
        verification and detection.

    (b) Plan.--The President, in consultation with the Secretary of 
State, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Energy, the Secretary 
of Homeland Security, and the Director of National Intelligence, shall 
develop a plan for verification and monitoring relating to the potential 
proliferation of nuclear weapons, components of such weapons, and 
fissile material.
    (c) Elements.--The plan developed under subsection (b) shall include 
the following:
            (1) A plan and road map for verification, detection, and 
        monitoring, with respect to policy, operations, and research, 
        development, testing, and evaluation, including--
                    (A) identifying requirements for such verification, 
                detection, and monitoring;
                    (B) costs and funding requirements over 10 years for 
                such verification, detection, and monitoring; and
                    (C) identifying and integrating roles, 
                responsibilities, and planning for such verification, 
                detection, and monitoring.
            (2) A detailed international engagement plan for building 
        cooperation and transparency, including bilateral and 
        multilateral efforts, to improve inspections, detection, and 
        monitoring.
            (3) A detailed description of--

[[Page 131 STAT. 1900]]

                    (A) current and planned research and development 
                efforts to improve monitoring, detection, and in-field 
                inspection and analysis capabilities, including 
                persistent surveillance, remote monitoring, and rapid 
                analysis of large data sets, including open-source data; 
                and
                    (B) measures to coordinate technical and operational 
                requirements early in the process.
            (4) Engagement of relevant departments and agencies of the 
        Federal Government and the military departments (including the 
        Open Source Center and the United States Atomic Energy Detection 
        System), national laboratories, industry, and academia.

    (d) Designation of DOE.--The President shall designate the 
Department of Energy as the lead agency for development of the plan 
under subsection (b).
    (e) Briefing.--Not later than 30 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Energy, acting through the 
Administrator for Nuclear Security, shall provide to the appropriate 
congressional committees an interim briefing on the plan under 
subsection (b).
    (f) Limitation.--Of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this 
Act or otherwise made available for fiscal year 2018 for the Department 
of Defense for supporting the Executive Office of the President, 
$10,000,000 may not be obligated or expended until the date on which the 
President submits to the appropriate congressional committees the plan 
under subsection (g)(1).
    (g) Submission.--
            (1) Deadline.--Not later than April 15, 2018, the President 
        shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees the 
        plan developed under subsection (b).

        in unclassified form, but, consistent with the protection of 
        intelligence sources and methods, may include a classified 
        annex.

    (h) Appropriate Congressional Committees Defined.--In this section, 
the term ``appropriate congressional committees'' means the following:
            (1) The congressional defense committees.
            (2) The Select Committee on Intelligence of the Senate and 
        the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House of

                        Subtitle D--Other Matters

SEC. 3151. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING COMPENSATION OF INDIVIDUALS 
                          RELATING TO URANIUM MINING AND NUCLEAR 
                          TESTING.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 2210 
        note) was enacted in 1990 to provide monetary compensation to 
        individuals who contracted certain cancers and other serious 
        diseases following their exposure to radiation released during 
        atmospheric nuclear weapons testing during the Cold War or 
        following exposure to radiation as a result of employment in the 
        uranium industry during the Cold War.
            (2) The Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation 
        Program Act of 2000 (42 U.S.C. 7384 et seq.) formally 
        acknowledged the dangers to which some employees of sites of the 
        Department of Energy and its vendors during the Cold War were 
        exposed. That Act also acknowledged that, although establishing 
        the link between occupational hazards and specific diseases can 
        be difficult, scientific evidence exists to support the 
        conclusion that some activities related to Cold War nuclear 
        weapons production have resulted in increased risk of illness 
        and death to workers. That Act established a formal process for 
        the submission of claims for medical expenses and lump sum 
        compensation for former employees and contractors and survivors 
        of those former employees and contractors.
            (3) As of the date of the enactment of this Act, more than 
        145,775 claims have been paid out under the Radiation Exposure 
        Compensation Act and the Energy Employees Occupational Illness 
        Compensation Program Act of 2000, for a total of at least 
        $16,400,000,000 in lump sum compensation and medical expenses.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the United 
States Government should appropriately compensate and recognize the 
employees, contractors, and other individuals described in subsection 
(a).
