_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Agricultural Trade Act of 1978 to preserve foreign markets
for goods using common names, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Safeguarding American Value-added
Exports Act'' or the ``SAVE Act''.
SEC. 2. PRESERVING FOREIGN MARKETS FOR GOODS USING COMMON NAMES.
(a) Definitions.--Section 102 of the Agricultural Trade Act of 1978
(7 U.S.C. 5602) is amended--
(1) in the matter preceding paragraph (1), by striking ``As

(2) by redesignating paragraphs (2) through (8) as
paragraphs (3), (5), (6), (7), (8), (9), and (4), respectively,
and reordering accordingly;
(3) by inserting after paragraph (1) the following:
``(2) Common name.--
``(A) In general.--The term `common name' means a
name that, as determined by the Secretary--
``(i) is ordinarily or customarily used for
an agricultural commodity or food product;
``(ii) is typically placed on the packaging
and product label of the agricultural commodity
or food product;
``(iii) with respect to wine--
``(I) is--
``(aa) ordinarily or
customarily used for a wine
grape varietal name; or
``(bb) a traditional term
or expression that is typically
placed on the packaging and
label of the wine; and
``(II) does not mean any
appellation of origin for wine listed
in subpart C of part 9 of title 27,
Code of Federal Regulations (or
successor regulations); and
``(iv) the use of which is consistent with
standards of the Codex Alimentarius Commission.
``(B) Considerations.--In making a determination
under subparagraph (A), the Secretary may take into
account--
``(i) competent sources, such as
dictionaries, newspapers, professional journals
and literature, and information posted on
websites that are determined by the Secretary
to be reliable in reporting market information;
``(ii) the use of the common name in a
domestic, regional, or international product
standard, including a standard promulgated by
the Codex Alimentarius Commission, for the
agricultural commodity or food product; and
``(iii) the ordinary and customary use of
the common name in the production or marketing
of the agricultural commodity or food product
in the United States or in other countries.'';
and
(4) in paragraph (7) (as so redesignated), in subparagraph
(A)--
(A) in clause (v), by striking ``or'' at the end;
(B) in clause (vi), by striking the period at the
end and inserting ``; or''; and
(C) by adding at the end the following:
``(vii) prohibits or disallows the use of
the common name of an agricultural commodity or
food product of the United States.''.
(b) Negotiations To Defend Use of Common Names.--Title III of the
Agricultural Trade Act of 1978 (7 U.S.C. 5652 et seq.) is amended by
adding at the end the following:
``SEC. 303. NEGOTIATIONS TO DEFEND THE USE OF COMMON NAMES.
``(a) In General.--The Secretary shall coordinate efforts with the
United States Trade Representative to secure the right of United States
agricultural producers, processors, and exporters to use common names
for agricultural commodities or food products in foreign markets
through the negotiation of bilateral, plurilateral, or multilateral
agreements, memoranda of understanding, or exchanges of letters that
assure the current and future use of each common name identified by the
Secretary in connection with United States agricultural commodities or
food products.
``(b) Report.--The Secretary and the United States Trade
Representative shall submit to Congress a report every 2 years
regarding efforts and successes in carrying out subsection (a).''.

most efficient and effective use of
spectrum by Federal entities in order

reallocation for non-Federal use or
shared Federal and non-Federal use, or
a combination thereof, and for auction
in accordance with such reallocation--

the deadline under subparagraph
(E)(iv)(II)(bb), or if the updated plan is
disapproved under subparagraph (F), the Federal
entity may not, after such deadline or the date

are required and, if so, direct the
Federal entity to revise such
activities;
``(V) in accordance with
subparagraph (E)(iv)(II), consult with

``(ii) Spectrum studies.--
``(I) Activities not identified in
plans of federal entities.--The NTIA,
in coordination with Federal entities,

convene a working group to develop, and periodically update,
criteria, ratings, and other measures, including voluntary
standards of radio receivers operating in Federal systems.
(2) Purpose.--The purpose of the criteria, ratings, and
other measures, including voluntary standards developed by the
working group, shall be to encourage the design, manufacture,
and sale of radio receivers operating in Federal systems that
incorporate appropriate measures to provide interference
immunity to ensure that the reasonable current and future use
of cochannel or non-cochannel spectrum, including use by non-
Federal systems of spectrum designated by the Commission for
commercial operations, will not result in receiver operations
being seriously degraded or obstructed, or their operations
repeatedly interrupted.
(3) Criteria.--In developing the receiver criteria,
ratings, and other measures, the working group shall take into
consideration the unique technical and operational
characteristics of the different Federal systems.
(b) Chair; Members.--The Chair of the working group shall be the
Secretary of Commerce and shall include representatives from the
following:
(1) The Assistant Secretary.
(2) The Commission.
(3) The telecommunications industry.

than 18 months after the date on which the working group is established
pursuant to subsection (a)(1), the Commission and Assistant Secretary
shall publish the criteria, ratings, and other measures developed
pursuant to subsection (a)(1) on a publicly accessible page on the
website of the National Telecommunications and Information
Administration and in the Federal Register.
(d) Periodic Review and Update.--Not less frequently than every 4
years, the working group shall review and update, if appropriate, the
criteria, ratings, and other measures published pursuant to subsection
(c). Any such update shall be published as described in subsection (c)
not later than 14 days after the date on which the update is completed.
(e) Savings Clause.--No action taken by the working group, the
Assistant Secretary, or the Commission pursuant to this section shall
be used to impose any obligation on manufacturers with respect to any
radio receivers designed to operate exclusively in non-Federal systems.
(f) Definitions.--In this section:
(1) Assistant secretary.--The term ``Assistant Secretary''
means the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications
and Information.
(2) Commission.--The term ``Commission'' means the Federal
Communications Commission.
(3) Federal system.--The term ``Federal system'' means a
system of radio stations belonging to and operated by the
United States that receives radio frequency signals on spectrum
that is allocated exclusively for Federal Government use or

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To authorize the Secretary of Education to award grants to eligible
entities to carry out educational programs that include the history of
peoples of Asian, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander descent in the
settling and founding of America, the social, economic, and political
environments that led to the development of discriminatory laws
targeting Asians, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders and their
relation to current events, and the impact and contributions of Asian
Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders to the development
and enhancement of American life, United States history, literature,
the economy, politics, body of laws, and culture, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Teaching Asian American, Native
Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander History Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The United States has benefitted from the integral role
Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders have
played in our Nation's history and contributions to the world.
(2) The Pacific Island Territories of Guam, American Samoa,
and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and all of
the Pacific Islands including Melanesia, Micronesia, and
Polynesia have unique histories that are often overlooked in
American history despite their immense contributions to our
Nation.
(3) The traditional American history curriculum for
kindergarten through grade 12 continues to be taught from a
Eurocentric point of view and excludes histories of racist
immigration laws relevant to policies today.
(4) Social studies textbooks for kindergarten through grade
12 poorly represent Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and
Pacific Islanders, overlook the diversity within those
communities, and print images of Asian Americans, Native
Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in stereotypical roles.
(5) The Federal Government, through support for educational
activities of national museums established under Federal law,
can assist teachers in efforts to incorporate historically
accurate instruction on the comprehensive history of Asian
Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders and assist
students in their exploration of Asian American, Native
Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander history as an integral part of
American history.
(6) The history of America's system of immigration is rife
with racism, embedded with goals of hiring workers to work for
cheaper wages and labor in heinous working conditions.
(7) Congress has continuously passed anti-Asian laws as the
result of the scapegoating of Asian immigrant laborers for
economic downturns in the United States.
(8) The history of South Asian Americans in the United
States dates back to the late 1700s.
(9) The history of Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders
in what is now considered to be the United States predates the
founding of our Nation.
(10) In 1993, Congress passed a joint resolution that was
signed into law formally apologizing for the role of the United
States in the illegal overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii, which
resulted in the suppression of the inherent sovereignty of the
Native Hawaiian people.
(11) Twelve thousand Chinese laborers worked in atrocious
conditions to build the Transcontinental Railroad, many dying
from harsh weather conditions and the dangers of handling
explosives.
(12) The Page Act of 1875, the first restrictive
immigration law in the United States, sought to prevent the
entry of Asian women perceived as immoral or suspected of
prostitution.
(13) After the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 banned Chinese
immigrants from immigrating to the United States, Japanese
immigrants were hired. After the Japanese were banned from
immigrating due to the Gentleman's Agreement of 1907, which
halted immigration from Japan, Filipino immigrants were hired
under 3-year contracts.
(14) Filipino farm workers helped found the farm worker
labor movement in the United States.
(15) The Immigration Act of 1917 restricted immigration to
the United States by barring immigration from the Asia-Pacific
zone.
(16) The Immigration Act of 1924 set a national origin
quota to deter immigration.
(17) President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Executive Order 9066
authorized the incarceration of more than 120,000 persons of
Japanese ancestry, two-thirds of whom were American citizens,
based solely on race.
(18) Beginning in 1954, the United States displaced more
than 3,000,000 refugees from Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam due to
covert and overt United States military operations in Southeast
Asia.
(19) The Immigration Act of 1965 made family unification
and skills-based migration the bedrock principle of immigration
to the United States.
(20) The nuclear testing conducted by the United States on
the Bikini and Enewetak Atoll of the Marshall Islands has made
parts of the island nation uninhabitable and caused forced
migration and health complications that still impact the
community today.
(21) The United States ratified a Compact of Free
Association with the Federated States of Micronesia, Republic
of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau enabling
citizens of these Pacific Island nations to legally migrate to
the United States visa-free while the United States retains
certain strategic military rights over their territorial
waters.
(22) In the aftermath of the Vietnam War, the Refugee Act
of 1980 helped more than 500,000 Southeast Asians gain
permanent resident status in the United States within the first
decade of its passage.
(23) The Pacific Islander community represents the largest
concentration of any ethnic group enlisted in the United States
military, as well as representing the highest numbers of
casualties in recent wars.
(24) The ``model minority'' myth perpetuates the stigma of
Asian Americans as perpetual foreigners, and such stereotypes
are used to pit minority groups against one another.
(25) The pattern of hate crimes and hate incidents directed
at Asians and Asian Americans has repeated itself throughout
history.
(26) Asian American and African American histories of
fighting against oppression and racism are intertwined, from
the Black Power Movement of the 1960s that birthed the Asian
American Movement to civil rights protests in present day.
(27) Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific
Islanders and their allies continue to fight discrimination,
racial prejudice, hate crimes, scapegoating, structural racism,
economic inequities, and benign and overt omission of the
integral role they played in the development of this Nation.

individuals serving as election officials or poll workers on a
temporary or unpaid basis.
``(b) Amount of Payment.--
``(1) Amount.--The amount of a payment made to a State
under the program established under this part shall be equal to
the greater of--

incur in providing increased pay for election workers,
as determined by the Commission taking into account the
information provided by the State in the plan described
in section 297A; or
``(B) the minimum payment amount described in
paragraph (2) with respect to the fiscal year.
``(2) Minimum payment amount.--The minimum payment amount
described in this paragraph with respect to a fiscal year is
equal to one-half of 1 percent of the aggregate amount made
available during the fiscal year for payments under the program
established under this part.
``(c) Application.--In order to be eligible to receive a payment
under the program established under this part, a State shall submit to

the extent to which State and local election officials will be
responsible for carrying out the plan.
``(b) Opportunity of All Election Workers To Receive Pay.--Under
the State's plan, the State may not treat an election worker as
ineligible to receive increased pay solely because the individual does
not interact directly with voters, individuals attempting to vote, or
individuals attempting to register to vote.

``In this part, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands
shall be considered a State.

in person pursuant to clause (iv)(I)) is
required prior to the furnishing of such
service using such technology.

under subclause (I), provide for the
addition or deletion of services (and

furnished using audio-only technology
and authorized for payment pursuant to
this subparagraph.
``(vii) Clarification regarding payment.--
The amount of payment for a specified
telehealth service that is furnished using
audio-only technology shall be equal to the
amount that would have been paid for such
service under this subsection had such service
been furnished via any other telecommunications
system authorized under this subsection.''.

1395m(m)(4)(F))) during the emergency period described in section
1135(g)(1)(B) of such Act (42 U.S.C. 1320b-5(g)(1)(B)) should be
extended on a permanent basis.

or
``(ii) the date on which an application for
a labor certification under section
212(a)(5)(A)(i) is filed with the Secretary of

``(B) Certain dependents of nonimmigrants.--With
respect to an alien who, for an aggregate period of 8

the United States (other than a nonimmigrant described
in subparagraph (A), (G), (N), or (S) of section
101(a)(15)), notwithstanding clause (i), the
determination of the alien's age shall be based on the
date on which such initial nonimmigrant employment-
based petition or application was filed by the alien's
nonimmigrant parent.
``(C) Failure to acquire status as alien lawfully
admitted for permanent residence.--With respect to an
alien who has not sought to acquire status as an alien
lawfully admitted for permanent residence during the 2
years beginning on the date on which an immigrant visa
becomes available to such alien, the alien's age shall
be determined based on the alien's biological age,
unless the failure to seek to acquire such status was
due to extraordinary circumstances.''; and
(B) in section 201(f) (8 U.S.C. 1151)--
(i) by striking the subsection heading and
all that follows through ``Termination Date.--
'' in paragraph (3) and inserting ``Rule for
Determining Whether Certain Aliens Are
Immediate Relatives.--''; and
(ii) by striking paragraph (4).
(2) Effective date.--
(A) In general.--The amendments made by this
subsection shall be effective as if included in the

Stat. 927).
(B) Motion to reopen or reconsider.--
(i) In general.--A motion to reopen or
reconsider the denial of a petition or
application described in the amendment made by
paragraph (1)(A) may be granted if--
(I) such petition or application
would have been approved if the

adjudication of the petition or
application;
(II) the individual seeking relief
pursuant to such motion was in the

U.S.C. 1151, 1152, and 1153).
(b) Nonimmigrant Dependent Children.--Section 214 of the
Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1184) is amended by adding at

``(1) In general.--Except as described in paragraph (2),
the determination as to whether an alien who is the derivative
beneficiary of a properly filed pending or approved immigrant
petition under section 204 is eligible to be a dependent child
shall be based on whether the alien is determined to be a child
under section 101(b)(6).
``(2) Long-term dependents.--If otherwise eligible, an
alien who is determined to be a child pursuant to section
101(b)(6)(B) may change status to, or extend status as, a
dependent child of a nonimmigrant with an approved employment-
based petition under this section or an approved application
under section 101(a)(15)(E), notwithstanding such alien's
marital status.
``(3) Employment authorization.--An alien admitted to the
United States as a dependent child of a nonimmigrant who is
described in this section is authorized to engage in employment
in the United States incident to status.''.
(c) Priority Date Retention.--Section 203(h) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1153(h)) is amended--
(1) by striking the subsection heading and inserting
``Retention of Priority Dates'';
(2) by striking paragraphs (1) through (4);
(3) by redesignating paragraph (5) as paragraph (3); and
(4) by inserting before paragraph (3) the following:

shall be the date on which a petition under section 204 is
filed with the Secretary of Homeland Security or the Secretary
of State, as applicable, unless such petition was preceded by
the filing of a labor certification with the Secretary of
Labor, in which case the date on which the labor certification
is filed shall be the priority date.
``(2) Applicability.--The principal beneficiary and all
derivative beneficiaries shall retain the priority date
associated with the earliest of any approved petition or labor
certification, and such priority date shall be applicable to
any subsequently approved petition.''.

H. R. 3443
To support the establishment or expansion and operation of programs
using a network of public and private community entities to provide
mentoring for children and youth with experience in foster care.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 17, 2023
Ms. Scanlon (for herself, Mr. Bacon, and Ms. Moore of Wisconsin)
introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on
Ways and Means
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To support the establishment or expansion and operation of programs
using a network of public and private community entities to provide
mentoring for children and youth with experience in foster care.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Foster Youth Mentoring Act of
2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Positive relationships are important for children and
youth. An estimated 20 percent of youth do not have caring
adults in their lives--representing 8,500,000 youth. Children
who have a positive caring relationship with an adult can also
benefit from additional positive relationships.
(2) Research shows that mentors make a difference in young
people's lives. At-risk youth who have mentors are 55 percent
more likely to enroll in college. Students who meet regularly
with their mentors are 52 percent less likely than their peers
to skip a day of school. Youth who have mentors are also 130
percent more likely to hold a leadership position.
(3) Young people that have mentors have improved
relationships with adults, fewer disciplinary referrals, and
more confidence to achieve their goals.
(4) In 2017, 442,995 youth were in foster care. Of those
youth 70,858 were between the ages of 10 and 13, and 101,983
were between the ages of 14 and 20.
(5) Mentoring programs that serve foster youth are unique
and require additional considerations, including specialized
training and support necessary to provide for consistent, long-
term relationships for children in foster care.
(6) Mentoring programs can be used as an effective
preventative or intervention strategy to support positive
outcomes for foster youth.
(7) Mentoring programs targeting at-risk youth, community-
based programs, and programs lasting 1 year or more are more
frequently found to be effective.
(8) Increasing evidence is showing that peer mentoring and
support can be very effective in engaging young people. Alumni
of and youth in foster care have noted the importance of the
support and service delivery by individuals with lived
experience, including peers.
SEC. 3. PROGRAMS FOR MENTORING CHILDREN IN FOSTER CARE.
Subpart 2 of part B of title IV of the Social Security Act (42
U.S.C. 629 et seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following:

(B) the likelihood, as determined by the Secretary,
that the eligible entity will use the grant to improve
student outcomes or outcomes on other performance
measures described in section 7; and

seq.).
(B) Second, to an eligible entity that proposes, in
an application submitted under section 5, to use the
grant to support a program that addresses racial
isolation.
(C) Third, to an eligible entity that proposes, in
an application submitted under section 5, to use the
grant to support a program that extends beyond one
local educational agency, such as an inter-district or
regional program.
(D) Fourth, to an eligible entity that demonstrates
meaningful coordination with local housing agencies to
increase access to schools that have a
disproportionately low number of low-income students.
(c) Duration of Grants.--
(1) Planning grant.--A planning grant awarded under this
section shall be for a period of not more than 1 year.
(2) Implementation grant.--An implementation grant awarded
under this section shall be for a period of not more than 3
years, except that the Secretary may extend an implementation
grant for an additional 2-year period if the eligible entity
receiving the grant demonstrates to the Secretary that the
eligible entity is making significant progress, as determined
by the Secretary, on the program performance measures described
in section 7.
SEC. 5. APPLICATIONS.

is amended by adding at the end the following:
``Sec. 607. The violation of any regulation relating to disparate

``(1) designate at least one employee to coordinate its
efforts to comply with requirements adopted pursuant to section
602 and carry out the responsibilities of the recipient under
this title, including any investigation of any complaint
alleging the noncompliance of the recipient with such
requirements or alleging any actions prohibited under this
title; and
``(2) notify its students and employees of the name, office
address, and telephone number of each employee designated under
paragraph (1).
``(b) In this section, the term `recipient' means a recipient
referred to in section 602 that operates an education program or
activity receiving Federal financial assistance authorized or extended
by the Secretary of Education.''.
SEC. 4. SPECIAL ASSISTANT FOR EQUITY AND INCLUSION.
Section 202(b) of the Department of Education Organization Act (20
U.S.C. 3412(b)) is amended--
(1) by redesignating paragraph (4) as paragraph (5); and
(2) by inserting after paragraph (3), the following:
``(4) There shall be in the Department, a Special Assistant for
Equity and Inclusion who shall be appointed by the Secretary. The
Special Assistant shall promote, coordinate, and evaluate efforts to
engender program compliance with title VI of the Civil Rights Act of
1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.) and inform individuals of their rights
under such Act, including the dissemination of information, technical
assistance, and coordination of research activities, in a manner
consistent with such Act. The Special Assistant shall advise both the
Secretary and Deputy Secretary on matters relating to compliance with
title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.).''.

SEC. 3. CONSENT DECREE AND SETTLEMENT REFORM.
(a) Pleadings and Preliminary Matters.--
(1) In general.--In any covered civil action, the agency
against which the covered civil action is brought shall publish
the notice of intent to sue and the complaint in a readily
accessible manner, including by making the notice of intent to
sue and the complaint available online not later than 15 days
after receiving service of the notice of intent to sue or
complaint, respectively.
(2) Entry of a covered consent decree or settlement
agreement.--A party may not make a motion for entry of a
covered consent decree or to dismiss a civil action pursuant to
a covered settlement agreement until after the end of
proceedings in accordance with paragraph (1) and subparagraphs
(A) and (B) of paragraph (2) of subsection (d) or subsection
(d)(3)(A), whichever is later.
(b) Intervention.--
(1) Rebuttable presumption.--In considering a motion to
intervene in a covered civil action or a civil action in which
a covered consent decree or settlement agreement has been

action in dispute would affect the person, the court shall
presume, subject to rebuttal, that the interests of the person
would not be represented adequately by the existing parties to
the action.
(2) State, local, and tribal governments.--In considering a
motion to intervene in a covered civil action or a civil action
in which a covered consent decree or settlement agreement has
been proposed that is filed by a State, local, or tribal
government, the court shall take due account of whether the
movant--
(A) administers jointly with an agency that is a
defendant in the action the statutory provisions that
give rise to the regulatory action to which the action
relates; or
(B) administers an authority under State, local, or
tribal law that would be preempted by the regulatory
action to which the action relates.
(c) Settlement Negotiations.--Efforts to settle a covered civil
action or otherwise reach an agreement on a covered consent decree or

(1) be conducted pursuant to the mediation or alternative
dispute resolution program of the court or by a district judge
other than the presiding judge, magistrate judge, or special
master, as determined appropriate by the presiding judge; and
(2) include any party that intervenes in the action.
(d) Publication of and Comment on Covered Consent Decrees or
Settlement Agreements.--
(1) In general.--Not later than 60 days before the date on
which a covered consent decree or settlement agreement is filed
with a court, the agency seeking to enter the covered consent
decree or settlement agreement shall publish in the Federal
Register and online--
(A) the proposed covered consent decree or
settlement agreement; and
(B) a statement providing--
(i) the statutory basis for the covered
consent decree or settlement agreement; and
(ii) a description of the terms of the
covered consent decree or settlement agreement,
including whether it provides for the award of
attorneys' fees or costs and, if so, the basis
for including the award.
(2) Public comment.--
(A) In general.--An agency seeking to enter a
covered consent decree or settlement agreement shall
accept public comment during the period described in
paragraph (1) on any issue relating to the matters
alleged in the complaint in the applicable civil action
or addressed or affected by the proposed covered
consent decree or settlement agreement.
(B) Response to comments.--An agency shall respond
to any comment received under subparagraph (A).
(C) Submissions to court.--When moving that the
court enter a proposed covered consent decree or
settlement agreement or for dismissal pursuant to a
proposed covered consent decree or settlement
agreement, an agency shall--
(i) inform the court of the statutory basis
for the proposed covered consent decree or
settlement agreement and its terms;
(ii) submit to the court a summary of the
comments received under subparagraph (A) and
the response of the agency to the comments;
(iii) submit to the court a certified index
of the administrative record of the notice and
comment proceeding; and

listed in the index which any party or amicus curiae
appearing before the court in the action submits to the
court.
(3) Public hearings permitted.--
(A) In general.--After providing notice in the
Federal Register and online, an agency may hold a
public hearing regarding whether to enter into a
proposed covered consent decree or settlement
agreement.
(B) Record.--If an agency holds a public hearing
under subparagraph (A)--
(i) the agency shall--
(I) submit to the court a summary
of the proceedings;
(II) submit to the court a
certified index of the hearing record;
and
(III) provide access to the hearing
record to the court; and
(ii) the full hearing record shall be
included in the court record.
(4) Mandatory deadlines.--If a proposed covered consent
decree or settlement agreement requires an agency action by a
date certain, the agency shall, when moving for entry of the
covered consent decree or settlement agreement or dismissal
based on the covered consent decree or settlement agreement,
inform the court of--
(A) any required regulatory action the agency has
not taken that the covered consent decree or settlement
agreement does not address;
(B) how the covered consent decree or settlement
agreement, if approved, would affect the discharge of
the duties described in subparagraph (A); and
(C) why the effects of the covered consent decree
or settlement agreement on the manner in which the
agency discharges its duties is in the public interest.
(e) Submission by the Government.--
(1) In general.--For any proposed covered consent decree or
settlement agreement that contains a term described in
paragraph (2), the Attorney General or, if the matter is being
litigated independently by an agency, the head of the agency
shall submit to the court a certification that the Attorney
General or head of the agency approves the proposed covered
consent decree or settlement agreement. The Attorney General or
head of the agency shall personally sign any certification
submitted under this paragraph.
(2) Terms.--A term described in this paragraph is--
(A) in the case of a covered consent decree, a term
that--
(i) converts into a nondiscretionary duty a
discretionary authority of an agency to
propose, promulgate, revise, or amend
regulations;
(ii) commits an agency to expend funds that
have not been appropriated and that have not
been budgeted for the regulatory action in
question;
(iii) commits an agency to seek a
particular appropriation or budget
authorization;
(iv) divests an agency of discretion
committed to the agency by statute or the
Constitution of the United States, without
regard to whether the discretion was granted to
respond to changing circumstances, to make
policy or managerial choices, or to protect the
rights of third parties; or
(v) otherwise affords relief that the court
could not enter under its own authority upon a
final judgment in the civil action; or
(B) in the case of a covered settlement agreement,
a term--
(i) that provides a remedy for a failure by
the agency to comply with the terms of the
covered settlement agreement other than the
revival of the civil action resolved by the
covered settlement agreement; and
(ii) that--
(I) interferes with the authority
of an agency to revise, amend, or issue
rules under the procedures set forth in
chapter 5 of title 5, United States
Code, or any other statute or Executive
order prescribing rulemaking procedures
for a rulemaking that is the subject of
the covered settlement agreement;
(II) commits the agency to expend
funds that have not been appropriated
and that have not been budgeted for the
regulatory action in question; or
(III) for such a covered settlement
agreement that commits the agency to
exercise in a particular way discretion
which was committed to the agency by
statute or the Constitution of the
United States to respond to changing
circumstances, to make policy or
managerial choices, or to protect the
rights of third parties.
(f) Review by Court.--
(1) Amicus.--A court considering a proposed covered consent
decree or settlement agreement shall presume, subject to
rebuttal, that it is proper to allow amicus participation
relating to the covered consent decree or settlement agreement
by any person who filed public comments or participated in a
public hearing on the covered consent decree or settlement
agreement under paragraph (2) or (3) of subsection (d).
(2) Review of deadlines.--
(A) Proposed covered consent decrees.--For a
proposed covered consent decree, a court shall not
approve the covered consent decree unless the proposed
covered consent decree allows sufficient time and
incorporates adequate procedures for the agency to
comply with chapter 5 of title 5, United States Code,
and other applicable statutes that govern rulemaking
and, unless contrary to the public interest, the
provisions of any Executive order that governs
rulemaking.
(B) Proposed covered settlement agreements.--For a
proposed covered settlement agreement, a court shall
ensure that the covered settlement agreement allows
sufficient time and incorporates adequate procedures
for the agency to comply with chapter 5 of title 5,
United States Code, and other applicable statutes that
govern rulemaking and, unless contrary to the public
interest, the provisions of any Executive order that
governs rulemaking.
(g) Annual Reports.--Each agency shall submit to Congress an annual
report that, for the year covered by the report, includes--
(1) the number, identity, and content of covered civil
actions brought against and covered consent decrees or
settlement agreements entered against or into by the agency;
and
(2) a description of the statutory basis for--
(A) each covered consent decree or settlement
agreement entered against or into by the agency; and
(B) any award of attorneys fees or costs in a civil
action resolved by a covered consent decree or
settlement agreement entered against or into by the
agency.
SEC. 4. MOTIONS TO MODIFY CONSENT DECREES.
If an agency moves a court to modify a covered consent decree or
settlement agreement and the basis of the motion is that the terms of
the covered consent decree or settlement agreement are no longer fully
in the public interest due to the obligations of the agency to fulfill
other duties or due to changed facts and circumstances, the court shall
review the motion and the covered consent decree or settlement
agreement de novo.
SEC. 5. EFFECTIVE DATE.
This Act shall apply to--
(1) any covered civil action filed on or after the date of
enactment of this Act; and

``(E) a new special hearing is required pursuant to
subsection (g); or''.

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To direct the Inspector General of the Department of Veterans Affairs

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Veterans Administration Backlog
Accountability Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. INSPECTOR GENERAL REPORT ON BACKLOG OF DISABILITY COMPENSATION
CLAIMS SUBMITTED TO DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS.
(a) Report.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
enactment of this Act, the Inspector General of the Department of
Veterans Affairs shall submit to Congress a report on the backlog of
disability compensation claims submitted to the Secretary of Veterans
Affairs pursuant to chapter 11 of title 38, United States Code, pending
before the Veterans Benefits Administration or the Board of Veterans'
Appeals.
(b) Matters Included.--The report under subsection (a) shall
include the following:
(1) A description of the status of the backlog described in
such subsection.
(2) An assessment of how the Secretary is addressing such
backlog, including how the Secretary is recruiting staff to
fill open positions within the Department using authorities or
amounts available under the Honoring our PACT Act of 2022
(Public Law 117-168).
(3) An assessment of how such backlog affects the average

1st Session

To authorize the Secretary of Education to establish an Advisory
Commission on Serving and Supporting Students with Mental Health
Disabilities in Institutions of Higher Education, and for other
purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 17, 2023
Mr. Trone (for himself, Ms. Wild, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Ms. Crockett, Ms.
Sewell, Mr. Kilmer, Mr. Payne, Mr. Meuser, Ms. Ross, Mrs. Watson
Coleman, and Ms. Brownley) introduced the following bill; which was
referred to the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To authorize the Secretary of Education to establish an Advisory
Commission on Serving and Supporting Students with Mental Health
Disabilities in Institutions of Higher Education, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Higher Education Mental Health Act
of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) More than 75 percent of mental health conditions begin
before the age of 24.
(2) More than 25 percent of students between the ages of 18
and 24 reported a mental health concern.
(3) More than 50 percent of students between the ages of 18
and 24 reported having a severe psychological problem.
(4) More than 50 percent of students between the ages of 18
and 24 reported feelings of hopelessness.
(5) Higher education counseling centers are devoting more
time to rapid-response treatment with more than 25 percent of
students who sought help reporting they had intentionally hurt
themselves.
(6) Over a 5-year period, counseling center utilization
increased by an average of 30 to 40 percent, while enrollment
increased by only 5 percent, forcing institutions to stretch
mental health services to more students without increasing
resources.
(b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are the following:
(1) To ensure States and institutions of higher education
are provided with accurate information on the mental health
concerns facing students.

of higher education, States, and the Federal Government can
take to improve the mental health services available to
students and properly treat the rising number of students with
mental health issues.

purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Mr. Yakym (for himself and Mr. Menendez) introduced the following bill;
which was referred to the Committee on Transportation and
Infrastructure
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title 49, United States Code, to establish certain rules
relating to unmanned aircraft systems and operations, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Increasing Competitiveness for
American Drones Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. BEYOND VISUAL LINE OF SIGHT OPERATIONS FOR UNMANNED AIRCRAFT
SYSTEMS.
(a) In General.--Chapter 448 of title 49, United States Code, is
amended by adding at the end the following:
``Sec. 44811. Beyond visual line of sight operations for unmanned
aircraft systems
``(a) In General.--Not later than 6 months after the date of
enactment of this section, the Administrator of the Federal Aviation
Administration (in this section referred to as the `Administrator')
shall issue a notice of proposed rulemaking establishing a regulatory
pathway for certification or approval of unmanned aircraft systems to
enable commercial beyond visual line of sight (in this section referred
to as `BVLOS') operations.
``(b) Consultation.--
``(1) In general.--Subject to paragraph (2), in
promulgating the rule under subsection (a), the Administrator
shall implement the final report and recommendations of the
Beyond Visual Line of Sight Aviation Rulemaking Committee which
were submitted to the Administrator on March 10, 2022.
``(2) Exception.--If the Administrator determines not to
implement 1 or more of the recommendations described in
paragraph (1), the Administrator shall provide to the
appropriate committees of Congress a statement of explanation
for such determination.
``(c) Final Rule.--
``(1) In general.--Not later than 2 years after the date of
enactment of this section, the Administrator shall issue a
final rule establishing a regulatory pathway for certification
or approval of unmanned aircraft systems to enable commercial
BVLOS operations.
``(2) Requirements.--The final rule described in paragraph
(1) shall, at a minimum, do the following:
``(A) Establish an applicable risk assessment
methodology for the authorization of BVLOS unmanned
aircraft system operations that includes quantified
measures of acceptability which sufficiently account
for the total air and ground risks associated with such
operations and the means for mitigating such risks,
taking into account an aircraft's size, weight, speed,
kinetic energy, operational capability, proximity to
airports and populated areas, operation over people,
and operation beyond the visual line of sight, or
operation during the day or night, including
consideration of unmanned aircraft using an approved or
accepted detect and avoid system appropriate for the
class and type of airspace in which the operation is
being conducted.
``(B) Establish remote pilot certification
standards for remote pilots for BVLOS operations,
taking into account varying levels of automated control
and management of unmanned aircraft system flights.
``(C) Establish an airworthiness process for small
unmanned aircraft systems that requires a
manufacturer's declaration of compliance to a Federal
Aviation Administration accepted means of compliance,
which shall not require type or production
certification or the issuance of a special
airworthiness certificate.
``(D) Establish a special airworthiness certificate
to be issued upon a manufacturer's declaration of
compliance to a Federal Aviation Administration
accepted means of compliance, which--
``(i) shall not require type or production
certification;
``(ii) shall, at least, govern
airworthiness of any unmanned aircraft system
that--
``(I) is not--
``(aa) a small unmanned
aircraft system; and
``(bb) appropriate for the
process described in
subparagraph (C), as determined
by the Administrator;
``(II) has a maximum gross weight
of not more than 1,320 lbs; and
``(III) has a maximum speed of 100
miles per hour; and
``(iii) may require unmanned aircraft
systems subject to the certificate to operate
in the national airspace system at altitudes
below at least--
``(I) 400 feet above ground level;
or
``(II) with respect to an unmanned
aircraft system flown within a 400-foot
radius of a structure, 400 feet above
the structure's immediate uppermost
limit.
``(E) Amend the Code of Federal Regulations to
establish generally applicable standards for the type
certification of unmanned aircraft systems that the
Administrator determines pose higher air or ground
risks such that those unmanned aircraft systems are not
appropriate for approvals under the processes described
in subparagraph (C) or (D).
``(F) Establish operating rules for--
``(i) the operation of the unmanned
aircraft systems described in subparagraph (C),
(D), or (E); and
``(ii) certain unmanned aircraft systems to
enable lower-risk BVLOS operations without
airworthiness requirements in a manner
consistent with the final report and
recommendations of the Beyond Visual Line of
Sight Aviation Rulemaking Committee described
in subsection (b)(1).
``(3) Rule of construction.--Nothing in this section shall
prohibit the use of the manufacturer declarations of compliance
required under paragraph (2)(C) for other unmanned aircraft
systems.''.
(b) Clerical Amendment.--The analysis for chapter 448 of title 49,
United States Code, is amended by inserting after the item relating to
section 44810 the following:
``44811. Beyond visual line of sight operations for unmanned aircraft
systems.''.
SEC. 3. ESTABLISHMENT OF ASSOCIATE ADMINISTRATOR OF UAS INTEGRATION.
Section 106 of title 49, United States Code, is amended by adding
at the end the following new subsection:
``(u) Office of the Associate Administrator of UAS Integration.--
``(1) Establishment.--There is established in the Federal
Aviation Administration the Office of Associate Administrator
of UAS Integration (in this subsection referred to as the
`Office').
``(2) Associate administrator.--The Office shall be headed
by an Associate Administrator, who shall--
``(A) be appointed by the Administrator, in
consultation with the Secretary of Transportation; and

(b) Program Extension.--Section 44803(h) of title 49, United States
Code, is amended by striking ``September 30, 2023'' and inserting
``September 30, 2028''.
SEC. 6. EXTENSION OF SPECIAL AUTHORITY FOR UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the lack of appropriate certification standards, rules,
and processes set by the Federal Aviation Administration for
airworthiness determinations and operational approvals of
unmanned aircraft systems (as defined in section 44801 of title
49, United States Code) puts the United States at a
disadvantage in global competitiveness and delays the
integration of promising new technology into communities in the
United States;
(2) this lack of progress on a standardized airworthiness
and operational approvals approach compels the extension of
authority to issue exemptions under section 44807 of such title
49; and
(3) such section 44807--
(A) should continue to use a risk-based approach to
authorize operations that do not fit within part 107 of
title 14, Code of Federal Regulations; and
(B) should not be limited to type certificate
applicants.
(b) Extension.--Section 44807(d) of title 49, United States Code,
is amended by striking ``September 30, 2023'' and inserting ``on the
date the rules described in section 44811 take effect''.
(c) Clarification.--Section 44807(a) of title 49, United States
Code, is amended by inserting ``or chapter 447'' after
``Notwithstanding any other requirement of this chapter''.
(d) Expedited Exemptions.--In exercising authority under section
44807 of title 49, United States Code (as amended by subsection (b)),
the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration shall, taking
into account the statutory mandate to ensure safe and efficient use of
the national airspace system and without requiring a rulemaking or
imposing the requirements of part 11 of title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, grant exemptions to enable--
(1) low-risk beyond visual line of sight operations, such
as certain package delivery operations or shielded operations
within 100 feet of the ground or a structure; or
(2) extended visual line of sight operations that rely on
visual observers to keep the aircraft or airspace within view.
(e) Clarification of Status of Previously Issued Rulemakings and
Exemptions.--
(1) Rulemakings.--Any rulemaking published prior to the
date of enactment of this Act under the authority described in
section 44807 of title 49, United States Code, shall continue
to be in effect following the expiration of such authority.
(2) Exemptions.--Any exemption granted under the authority
described in section 44807 of title 49, United States Code, and
in effect as of September 30, 2023, shall continue to be in
effect until the date that is 3 years after the date of
termination described in such exemption.
(3) Delegation.--The authority granted to the Secretary of
Transportation in such section 44807 may continue to be
delegated to the Administrator of the Federal Aviation
Administration in whole or in part.
(4) Rules of construction.--Nothing in this section shall
be construed to interfere with the Secretary of
Transportation's--
(A) authority to rescind or amend the granting of
an exemption for reasons such as unsafe conditions or
operator oversight; or
(B) ability to grant an exemption based on a
determination made pursuant to such section 44807
before the expiration of that provision.

1st Session
H. R. 3462
To require elementary schools and secondary schools that receive
Federal funds to obtain parental consent before facilitating a child's
gender transition in any form, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Mr. Banks (for himself, Mrs. Miller of Illinois, Mr. Gosar, Mr.
Grothman, Mr. Babin, Mr. Duncan, and Mr. LaMalfa) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Education and
the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require elementary schools and secondary schools that receive
Federal funds to obtain parental consent before facilitating a child's
gender transition in any form, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Empower Parents to Protect Their
Kids Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) School districts across the country are violating
parental and familial rights by encouraging or instructing
staff to deceive or withhold information from parents if their
child expresses confusion about their gender and is seeking to
``transition''. Without parental knowledge or consent, schools
are facilitating ``social gender transitions'' by changing the
names and pronouns of children in school, or even allowing
children to change which sex-segregated facilities they use,
such as rest rooms, locker rooms, and dormitories or other
housing for overnight field trips.
(2) Powerful teachers unions and activist organizations are
pressuring more schools to adopt policies to enable and
encourage children, of any age, to change their ``gender
identity'' at school without parental notice or consent.
(3) Contrary to the unfounded assertions of activists,
``socially transitioning'' a child is not an evidence-based
practice and it is not a neutral or uncontroversial decision.
This practice is an experimental social and psychological
intervention that has immediate effects on a child's psychology
and a high likelihood of changing the life path of a child. A
``social gender transition'' may make it more difficult for a
child to reverse course later on, thereby increasing the
likelihood that the child will continue on to a ``medical
transition'', resulting in life-changing, irreversible
consequences.
(4) Any policies that attempt to circumvent parental
authority are a violation of parents' constitutionally
protected rights to direct the care, custody, and upbringing of
their children as recognized by the Supreme Court. Further,
policies that withhold information from parents or ask children
about intimate details of their family life violate Federal
statutes designed to uphold a parent's rights and duties in
education. School districts implementing such policies are
misrepresenting or entirely ignoring these statutes and
constitutional protections.
(5) Schools should never be allowed to intrude on family
life by misleading or excluding parents and confusing children.
SEC. 3. REQUIREMENT OF PARENTAL CONSENT.
(a) In General.--No Federal funds shall be made available to any
elementary school or secondary school unless the elementary school or
secondary school, with respect to students enrolled at the school who
have not yet reached 18 years of age, complies with each of the
following requirements:
(1) School employees do not proceed with any accommodation
intended to affirm a student's purported ``gender identity'',
where the student's purported ``gender identity'' is
incongruous with the student's biological sex, or any action to
facilitate a ``gender transition'', including referral or
recommendation to any third-party medical provider, unless the
employees have received express parental consent to do so.
(2) School employees do not facilitate, encourage, or
coerce students to withhold information from their parents
regarding the student's ``gender transition'' or the student's
purported ``gender identity'', where the student's purported
``gender identity'' is incongruous with the student's
biological sex.
(3) School employees do not withhold or hide information
from parents about a student's desired ``gender transition'' or
a student's purported ``gender identity'', where the student's
purported ``gender identity'' is incongruous with the student's
biological sex.
(4) School employees do not encourage, pressure, or coerce
the parents of students, or students themselves, to proceed
with any treatment or intervention to affirm the student's
purported ``gender identity'', where that ``gender identity''
is incongruous with the student's biological sex.
(b) Rules of Construction.--Nothing in this section shall be
construed--
(1) to prevent a school employee from contacting
appropriate legal authorities about an imminent threat to a
student's physical safety in the event that the school employee
knows or has a reasonable suspicion that the student is at risk
of physical abuse, as defined in section 1169 of title 18,
United States Code; or
(2) to deprive any parent of the right to be involved in a
child's actions or discussions about gender transition, without
the due process of law.
(c) Ensuring Compliance.--The head of each Federal agency shall
require each application for Federal assistance submitted by a State
educational agency or local educational agency to the head of such
Federal agency--
(1) to describe the steps that each elementary school and
secondary school served by the State educational agency or
local educational agency proposes to take to ensure compliance
with the requirements under this section and how these steps
preserve and protect the authority of the family; and
(2) to ensure that--
(A) a copy of the written policy that each
elementary school and secondary school served by the
State educational agency or local educational agency
has to ensure compliance with the requirements under
this section is provided to the head of such Federal
agency and to the families of enrolled students; and
(B) each such policy is clearly and publicly posted
on the website of the school.
(d) Civil Action for Certain Violations.--
(1) In general.--A qualified party may, in a civil action,
obtain appropriate relief with regard to a designated
violation.
(2) Administrative remedies not required.--An action under
this section may be commenced, and relief may be granted,
without regard to whether the party commencing the action has
sought or exhausted any available administrative remedy.
(3) Defendants in actions under this section may include
governmental entities as well as others.--An action under this
section may be brought against any elementary school or
secondary school receiving Federal financial assistance or any
governmental entity assisting an elementary school or secondary
school.
(4) Nature of relief.--In an action under this section, the
court shall grant--
(A) all appropriate relief, including injunctive
relief and declaratory relief;
(B) to a prevailing plaintiff, reasonable
attorneys' fees and litigation costs; and
(C) payment for treatments or therapy needed to
repair harm to the child perpetuated by pursuit of
``gender transition'' determined necessary by the
parent and the child's medical providers.
(5) Attorneys fees for defendant.--If a defendant in a
civil action under this subsection prevails and the court finds
that the plaintiff's suit was frivolous, the court shall award
a reasonable attorney's fee in favor of the defendant against
the plaintiff.
(e) Definitions.--In this section:
(1) Biological sex.--The term ``biological sex'' means the
biological indication of male and female as determined by
reproductive potential or capacity, such as sex chromosomes,
naturally occurring sex hormones, gonads, and nonambiguous
internal and external genitalia present at birth, without
regard to a person's psychological, chosen, or subjective
experience of gender.
(2) Designated violation.--The term ``designated
violation'' means an actual or threatened violation of this
section.
(3) ESEA.--The terms ``elementary school'' and ``secondary
school'' have the meanings given the terms in section 8101 of
the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C.
7801).
(4) Gender identity.--The term ``gender identity'' means a
person's self-perception of their gender or claimed gender,
regardless of the person's biological sex.
(5) Gender transition.--
(A) In general.--The term ``gender transition''
includes both medical transition and social transition.
(B) Medical transition.--The term ``medical
transition'' means any medical, hormonal, or surgical
intervention undertaken to alter the body of a person
in order to assert an identity incongruent with
biological sex or undertaken to create or facilitate
the development of physiological or anatomical
characteristics that resemble a sex different from the
person's biological sex.
(C) Social transition.--The term ``social
transition'' means any action taken to affirm a
person's asserted ``gender identity'' that is in
contradiction to the person's biological sex, including
but not limited to decisions pertaining to the use of
sex-specific facilities and accommodations,
participation in sex-segregated sports or activities,
pronoun and name usage, boarding, sleeping and travel
arrangements for field trips (including overnight
trips), and dress code guidelines.
(6) Governmental entity.--The term ``governmental entity''
means a school district, a local educational agency, a school
board, or any agency or other governmental unit or subdivision
of a State responsible for education, or of such a local
government.
(7) Qualified party.--The term ``qualified party'' means--
(A) the Attorney General of the United States; or
(B) any parent or legal guardian adversely affected
by the designated violation.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 3464
To exempt small seller financers from certain licensing requirements.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Mr. Barr (for himself, Mr. Vicente Gonzalez of Texas, Mr. Posey, and
Mr. Cuellar) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Financial Services
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To exempt small seller financers from certain licensing requirements.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Affordable Homeownership Access
Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Real-estate owner financing is a transaction in which
the owner of a real estate property provides financing for the
buyer of that property and the buyer makes some form of a down
payment to the owner, receives the deed or title to the home
and then makes installment payments to the owner over a defined
period of time.
(2) Owner financers provide financing in lieu of the buyer
choosing to obtain a loan from a bank.
(3) The owner finance industry consists of small business
owners who own real estate and provide financing on those
properties to underserved buyers who cannot or would prefer not
to obtain traditional bank or loan based financing.
(4) Owner financers are governed by real estate and
consumer protection laws (including, but not limited to,
ability to repay, deceptive trade practices, and usury laws) of
each State, as well as State and Federal fair housing and equal
opportunity laws.
(5) Using owner financing will benefit home values,
increase neighborhood stabilization, and assist with family
wealth creation through increased homeownership as more homes
are sold with owner financing.
(6) None of the amendments made by this Act, are applicable
to transactions known as Contracts for Deed or Land Installment
Contracts that are not lawfully recorded, Lease Options, Lease
with Option to buy and Rent to Own.
SEC. 3. EXCEPTION FOR OWNER FINANCERS WITH RESPECT TO LOAN ORIGINATOR
LICENSE OR REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS.
Section 1504 of the S.A.F.E. Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 (12
U.S.C. 5103) is amended by adding at the end the following:
``(c) Exception for Owner Financers.--The requirements of this
title shall not apply to any person (other than a depository
institution) who--
``(1) extend credit with respect to not more than 24
residential mortgage loans in a 12-month period; and
``(2) only extend credit with respect to residential
mortgage loans that are with respect to property that is owned
by such person.''.
SEC. 4. EXCEPTION FOR OWNER FINANCERS IN THE DEFINITION OF MORTGAGE
ORIGINATOR.
Subparagraph (E) of section 103(dd)(2) of the Truth in Lending Act
(15 U.S.C. 1602(dd)(2)) is amended--
(1) by redesignating subparagraphs (F) and (G) as
subparagraphs (G) and (H), respectively;
(2) by amending subparagraph (E) to read as follows:
``(E) does not include, with respect to a
residential mortgage sale, a person or entity
(including a corporation, partnership, proprietorship,
association, cooperative, estate, or trust) if--
``(i) such a person or entity provides
owner financing, in a 12-month period, for the
sale of 24 properties; and
``(ii) each piece of real property
described under clause (i) is owned by such a
person or entity and serves as security for the
loan or extension of credit, provided that such
loan or extension of credit--
``(I) is not made by a person or
entity that has constructed, or acted
as a general contractor for the
construction of, a residence on the
property in the ordinary course of
business of such person, corporation,
association, estate, or trust;
``(II) is fully amortizing;
``(III) is with respect to a sale
for which the owner determines in good
faith and documents that the buyer has
a reasonable ability to pay the owner;
``(IV) has a fixed rate or an
adjustable rate that is adjustable
after 5 or more years, subject to
reasonable annual and lifetime
limitations on interest rate increases;
and
``(V) meets any other criteria the
Bureau may prescribe by rule;''; and
(3) by inserting after subparagraph (E) the following:
``(F) does not include, with respect to a
residential mortgage loan or extension of credit, a
person or entity (including a corporation, partnership,
proprietorship, association, cooperative, estate, or
trust) if--
``(i) the loan or extension of credit is
owner financed and is a consumer loan or
extension of credit secured by a security
interest on a manufactured home (as defined
under section 603 of the National Manufactured
Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act
of 1974); and
``(ii) each home described under clause (i)
is owned by such a person or entity and serves
as security for the loan or extension of
credit, provided that such loan or extension of
credit--
``(I) is not made by a person or
entity that has manufactured the
manufactured home;
``(II) is fully amortizing;
``(III) is with respect to a sale
for which the owner determines in good
faith and documents that the buyer has
a reasonable ability to pay the owner;
``(IV) has a fixed rate or an
adjustable rate that is adjustable
after 5 or more years, subject to
reasonable annual and lifetime
limitations on interest rate increases;
and
``(V) meets any other criteria the
Bureau may prescribe by rule;''.
SEC. 5. REPORT ON OWNER FINANCING.
(a) Study.--The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and the
Secretary of the Treasury shall jointly carry out a study on--
(1) the number of homes bought for under $150,000 or 60
percent of the median home value in a given community,
whichever is lower, in the United States by utilizing owner
financing;
(2) the number of homes described under paragraph (1)
financed by licensed mortgage brokers;
(3) the potential number of homes described under paragraph
(1) which could be sold but aren't, because owner financiers
are unwilling, or from a practical standpoint unable, to comply
with mortgage broker rules; and
(4) the potential benefit to home values and wealth
creation if more homes were to be sold utilizing owner finance.
(b) Report.--Not later than the end of the 1-year period beginning
on the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Housing and
Urban Development and the Secretary of the Treasury shall jointly issue
a report to the Committee on Financial Services of the House of
Representatives and the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban
Affairs of the Senate containing--
(1) all findings and determinations made in carrying out
the study required under subsection (a); and
(2) data on the number of transactions utilizing owner
financing 20 years, 15 years, 10 years, and 5 years prior to
the date of the enactment of this Act.

not be referred to a committee.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 3472
To reduce spending on nuclear weapons and related defense spending and
to prohibit the procurement and deployment of low-yield nuclear
warheads, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Mr. Blumenauer introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Armed Services
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To reduce spending on nuclear weapons and related defense spending and
to prohibit the procurement and deployment of low-yield nuclear
warheads, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Smarter Approaches to Nuclear
Expenditures Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The United States continues to maintain an excessively
large and costly arsenal of nuclear delivery systems and
warheads that are a holdover from the Cold War.
(2) The current nuclear arsenal of the United States
includes approximately 3,708 total nuclear warheads in its
military stockpile, of which approximately 1,744 are deployed
with five delivery components: land-based intercontinental
ballistic missiles, submarine-launched ballistic missiles,
long-range strategic bomber aircraft armed with nuclear gravity
bombs, long-range strategic bomber aircraft armed with nuclear-
armed air-launched cruise missiles, and short-range fighter
aircraft that can deliver nuclear gravity bombs. The strategic
bomber fleet of the United States comprises 87 B-52 and 20 B-2
aircraft, over 66 of which contribute to the nuclear mission.
The United States also maintains 400 intercontinental ballistic
missiles and 14 Ohio-class submarines, up to 12 of which are
deployed. Each of those submarines is armed with approximately
90 nuclear warheads.
(3) Between fiscal years 2021 and 2030, the United States
will spend an estimated $634,000,000,000 to maintain and
recapitalize its nuclear force, according to a January 2019
estimate from the Congressional Budget Office, an increase of
$140,000,000,000 from the Congressional Budget Office's 2019
estimate, with 36 percent of that additional cost stemming
``mainly from new plans for modernizing [the Department of
Energy's] production facilities and from [the Department of
Defense's] modernization programs moving more fully into
production''.
(4) Adjusted for inflation, the Congressional Budget Office
estimates that the United States will spend $634,000,000,000
between 2021 and 2030 on new nuclear weapons and modernization
and infrastructure programs, an estimate that in total is 28
percent higher than the Congressional Budget Office's most
recent previous estimate of the 10-year costs of nuclear
forces.
(5) Inaccurate budget forecasting is likely to continue to
plague the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy,
as evidenced by the fiscal year 2023 budget request of the
President for the National Nuclear Security Administration
``Weapon Activities'' account, which far exceeded what the
National Nuclear Security Administration had projected in
previous years.
(6) The projected growth in nuclear weapons spending is
coming due as the Department of Defense is seeking to replace
large portions of its conventional forces to better compete
with the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China
and as internal and external fiscal pressures are likely to
limit the growth of, and perhaps reduce, military spending. As
then-Air Force Chief of Staff General Dave Goldfein said in
2020, ``I think a debate is that this will be the first time
that the nation has tried to simultaneously modernize the
nuclear enterprise while it's trying to modernize an aging
conventional enterprise. The current budget does not allow you
to do both.''.
(7) In 2023, the Government Accountability Office released
a report entitled ``Nuclear Weapons: NNSA Does Not Have a
Comprehensive Schedule or Cost Estimate for Pit Production
Capability'', stating the National Nuclear Security
Administration ``had limited assurance that it would be able to
produce sufficient numbers of pits in time'' to meet the
requirement under section 4219 of the Atomic Energy Defense Act
(50 U.S.C. 2538a) that the National Nuclear Security
Administration produce 80 plutonium pits by 2030.
(8) According to the Government Accountability Office, the
National Nuclear Security Administration has still not factored
affordability concerns into its planning as was recommended by
the Government Accountability Office in 2017, with the warning
that ``it is essential for NNSA to present information to
Congress and other key decision makers indicating whether the
agency has prioritized certain modernization programs or
considered trade-offs (such as deferring or cancelling specific
modernization programs)''. Instead, the budget estimate of the
Department of Energy for nuclear modernization activities
during the period of fiscal years 2021 through 2025 was
$81,000,000,000--$15,000,000,000 more than the 2020 budget
estimate of the Department for the same period.
(9) A December 2020 Congressional Budget Office analysis
showed that the projected costs of nuclear forces over the next
decade can be reduced by $12,400,000,000 to $13,600,000,000 by
trimming back current plans, while still maintaining a triad of
delivery systems. Even larger savings would accrue over the
subsequent decade.
(10) The Department of Defense's June 2013 nuclear policy
guidance entitled ``Report on Nuclear Employment Strategy of
the United States'' found that force levels under the April
2010 Treaty on Measures for the Further Reduction and
Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms between the United
States and the Russian Federation (commonly known as the ``New
START Treaty'') ``are more than adequate for what the United
States needs to fulfill its national security objectives'' and
can be reduced by up to \1/3\ below levels under the New START
Treaty to 1,000 to 1,100 warheads.
(11) Former President Trump expanded the role of, and
spending on, nuclear weapons in United States policy at the
same time that he withdrew from, unsigned, or otherwise
terminated a series of important arms control and
nonproliferation agreements.

``(a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of
enactment of this section, the Secretary shall establish a program, to
be known as the `elderly simplified application program' (referred to
in this section as `ESAP'), under which a State, in carrying out the
supplemental nutrition assistance program, may elect to implement a
streamlined application and certification process for households in
which all adult members--
``(1) are elderly or disabled members; and
``(2) have no earned income.
``(b) Certification Period.--The certification period for
participants in ESAP shall be 36 months.
``(c) Income and Other Data Verification.--
``(1) In general.--A State agency determining the
eligibility for an applicant household under ESAP shall,
notwithstanding section 11(e)(3)--
``(A) to the maximum extent practicable, use data
matching for income verification and household size;
and
``(B)(i) allow self-declaration by the applicant of
the information required under section 273.2(f) of
title 7, Code of Federal Regulations (or successor
regulations); but
``(ii) verify, prior to certification of the
household, factors of eligibility provided by the
applicant that the State agency determines are
questionable.
``(2) Accountability and fraud prevention.--In carrying out
paragraph (1), a State agency shall establish accountability
and fraud protection measures to deter fraud and ensure the
integrity of ESAP and the supplemental nutrition assistance
program.
``(d) Interviews.--Notwithstanding section 11(e)(6)(A), for
recertification of a household under ESAP, the State agency shall not
require an interview unless requested by the household, which may be
conducted virtually.
``(e) Guidance.--Prior to the establishment of ESAP under
subsection (a), the Administrator of the Food and Nutrition Service
shall develop guidance for States, including by consulting with States,
to carry out ESAP, which shall include--
``(1) general implementation guidelines;
``(2) reporting requirements;
``(3) quality control requirements; and
``(4) best practices.''.
(c) Combined Application Program.--The Food and Nutrition Act of
2008 (7 U.S.C. 2011 et seq.) (as amended by subsection (b)) is amended
by adding at the end the following:
``SEC. 32. COMBINED APPLICATION PROGRAM.
``(a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of
enactment of this section, the Secretary, in coordination with the
Commissioner of Social Security, shall establish a program, to be known
as the `combined application program' (referred to in this section as
`CAP'), under which a State, in carrying out the supplemental nutrition
assistance program, may elect to implement a streamlined application
process for households in which all adult members are applicants for or
recipients of benefits under title II of the Social Security Act (42
U.S.C. 401 et seq.) on the basis of a disability or supplemental
security income under title XVI of that Act (42 U.S.C. 1381 et seq.).
``(b) Purposes.--The purposes of CAP are--
``(1) to reduce the need for households described in
subsection (a) to have in-person interviews with State offices
administering the supplemental nutrition assistance program;
and
``(2) to increase participation in the supplemental
nutrition assistance program by simplifying the application
process for that program through increased automation and
simplified calculation of benefits.
``(c) CAP Models.--The Secretary, in coordination with the
Commissioner of the Social Security Administration, shall offer, at a
minimum, each of the following models for States to implement CAP:
``(1) Standard model.--
``(A) In general.--Under the standard model, the
Commissioner of the Social Security Administration and
the State agency administering the supplemental
nutrition assistance program shall coordinate--
``(i) to develop a simplified joint
application process for the supplemental
nutrition assistance program that uses
standardized benefit amounts or standardized
shelter expenses, in accordance with this
paragraph; and
``(ii) to conduct outreach to adult members
receiving supplemental security income under
title XVI of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C.
1381 et seq.) that are not receiving benefits
under the supplemental nutrition assistance
program.
``(B) Standardized benefit amounts.--
``(i) In general.--Under the standardized
model described in subparagraph (A), applicants
shall receive a standardized or automated
benefit level under the supplemental nutrition
assistance program based on their shelter
expenses and other income.
``(ii) Minimum standardized benefit
levels.--At a minimum, there shall be 2
standardized benefit levels under clause (i),
including, as determined by the State--
``(I) a level for participants with
low shelter expenses; and
``(II) a level for participants
with high shelter expenses.
``(iii) Comparable amount.--A State shall
ensure that the amount provided under a
standardized benefit level under clause (i) is
comparable to an amount that a participant
would otherwise receive under the supplemental
nutrition assistance program.
``(iv) Referral.--A State shall refer a
household described in subsection (a) to the
supplemental nutrition assistance program
instead of enrolling that household in CAP if
the standardized amount that the household
would receive under CAP would be significantly
less than the amount of benefits that the
household would receive under the supplemental
nutrition assistance program.
``(C) Standardized shelter expenses.--In computing
an excess shelter expense deduction under section
5(e)(6), a State agency may use a standard utility
allowance in accordance with regulations promulgated by
the Secretary.
``(2) Modified model.--Under the modified model, a State
agency administering the supplemental nutrition assistance
program shall--
``(A) conduct outreach to prospective participants
in the supplemental nutrition assistance program using
information from the Social Security Administration to
identify households described in subsection (a) that
are not participants in the supplemental nutrition
assistance program; and
``(B) send to those households simplified
application forms for the supplemental nutrition
assistance program.''.
SEC. 4. ENROLLMENT AND OUTREACH PILOT PROGRAM FOR OLDER ADULTS, KINSHIP
FAMILIES, AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES.
The Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (7 U.S.C. 2011 et seq.) (as
amended by section 3(c)) is amended by adding at the end the following:
``SEC. 33. ENROLLMENT AND OUTREACH PILOT PROGRAM FOR OLDER ADULTS,
KINSHIP FAMILIES, AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES.

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Mr. Burchett (for himself, Mr. Kustoff, and Mr. Duncan) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and
Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title 39, United States Code, to establish rules and
procedures for the United States Postal Service regarding the use of
centralized delivery of the mail with respect to residential housing
units, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Easy Access to Mail Act''.
SEC. 2. LIMITATION ON CENTRALIZED DELIVERY FOR CERTAIN RESIDENTIAL
HOUSING UNITS.
(a) In General.--Subchapter VII of chapter 36 of title 39, United
States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following:
``Sec. 3693. Limitation on centralized delivery
``(a) Definitions.--In this section--
``(1) the term `centralized delivery' means a primary mode
of mail delivery whereby mail receptacles of a number of
delivery points are grouped or clustered at a single location;
``(2) the term `primary mode of mail delivery' means the
typical method by which the Postal Service delivers letter mail
to the delivery point of a postal patron; and
``(3) the term `housing development' means any single-
family residential home or townhouse, but does not include any
multi-home apartment or condominium building.
``(b) Retroactive Change to Mode of Delivery Prohibited.--For any
housing development with respect to which the primary mode of mail
delivery is any such mode except for centralized delivery on the date
of the enactment of this section, the Postal Service may not change
such mode of delivery to centralized delivery.
``(c) Approval Required.--
``(1) In general.--The Postal Service may not require
centralized delivery with respect to any housing development
constructed after the date of the enactment of this section
without prior approval from the local legislative body, or, in
the absence of a local legislative body, the legislature of the
State with jurisdiction over the affected property.
``(2) Notice and comment.--If approval for centralized
delivery is granted under paragraph (1), at least 60 days
before commencing such delivery, the local postmaster shall
provide--
``(A) written notice to any other units of local
government and any planning commissions located within
the applicable county; and
``(B) a period of 60 days for public comment from
residents, property owners, and home builders within
such county regarding the use of centralized delivery
at the applicable housing development.''.
(b) Clerical Amendment.--The table of sections for chapter 36 of
title 39, United States Code, is amended by adding after the item
relating to section 3692 the following:
``3693. Limitation on centralized delivery.''.
(c) Postal Service Policies Affecting Vulnerable Communities.--The
Postal Regulatory Commission shall ensure that the United States Postal
Service does not change any Postal Service policy in effect on the date
of the enactment of this Act that would result in a disproportionate
negative affect on rural, lower income, elderly, disabled, or
predominately minority communities.

``(a) Definitions.--In this section:
``(1) Covered insurance program.--The term `covered
insurance program' means a plan of insurance offered by the
Corporation.
``(2) Program.--The term `program' means the Good Steward
Cover Crop program established under subsection (b)(1).
``(3) Qualifying cover crop.--The term `qualifying cover
crop' means cereal or other grass, legume, brassica, nonlegume
broadleaf, or any combination thereof that is planted for
conservation purposes in accordance with--
``(A) guidance of the Natural Resources
Conservation Service; and
``(B) any other expert guidance, as determined by
the Secretary.
``(4) Underserved producer.--The term `underserved
producer' has the meaning given the term in section
508(a)(7)(A).
``(b) Establishment.--
``(1) In general.--Beginning with crop year 2023, the
Secretary shall carry out a program, to be known as the `Good
Steward Cover Crop program', to provide additional premium
subsidies to producers for each acre--
``(A) on which qualifying cover crops are planted
during a crop year; and
``(B) for which the producers, during such crop
year--
``(i) plant crops other than the qualifying
cover crops; and
``(ii) purchase insurance under a covered
insurance program with respect to such planted
crops.
``(2) Report.--For each acre described in paragraph (1),
for each crop year, a producer shall be required to submit to
the Secretary a report of acreage form.
``(c) Premium Subsidy Amount.--
``(1) In general.--Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), an
additional premium subsidy provided to a producer under the
program shall--
``(A) be calculated on a common land unit basis or
an equivalent or more precise basis; and
``(B) be in an amount equal to the product obtained
by multiplying--
``(i) $5; and
``(ii) the number of acres of the producer
for which the additional premium subsidy is
provided.
``(2) Limitation.--An additional premium subsidy under
paragraph (1) for an acre described in subsection (b)(1) shall
not exceed the amount of the premium owed by the producer with
respect to that acre.
``(3) Rule with respect to a producer-share.--An additional
premium subsidy under paragraph (1) shall be modified to
reflect the individual producer share of such acres.
``(4) Inclusion.--Participation by a producer in a State
program that provides premium subsidies for conservation
practices, including cover crops, shall not disqualify a
producer from receiving assistance under this section.
``(d) Outreach.--
``(1) In general.--The Secretary shall, in coordination
with the Administrator of the Farm Service Agency and the Chief
of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, conduct outreach
to producers, including underserved producers, to provide
information on--
``(A) the program, including eligibility for the
program; and
``(B) qualifying cover crops under the program.
``(2) Cooperative agreements.--The Secretary shall enter
into 1 or more cooperative agreements with organizations
capable of assisting with the outreach described in paragraph
(1)--
``(A) to carry out such outreach; and
``(B) to coordinate with soil and water
conservation districts to encourage the adoption of
qualifying cover crop practices.
``(e) Reports.--
``(1) In general.--Not later than 1 year after the date of
enactment of this section, and annually thereafter, the
Secretary shall, in coordination with the Administrator of the
Risk Management Agency, the Administrator of the Farm Service
Agency, and the Chief of the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, submit to Congress a report that includes--
``(A) a summary of the activities carried out under
the program, including--
``(i) the number and amount of premium
subsidies provided to producers under the
program;
``(ii) the number of acres of cover crops
planted for which a premium subsidy was
received; and
``(iii) the outreach carried out under
subsection (d); and
``(B) recommendations to increase the number of
producers that qualify for additional premium subsidies
under the program.
``(2) Study; report.--Not later than 4 years after the date
of enactment of this section, the Secretary shall, in
coordination with the Administrator of the Risk Management
Agency, the Administrator of the Farm Service Agency, and the
Chief of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, carry out,
and submit to Congress a report on the results of, a study that
examines whether planting qualifying cover crops in accordance
with this section results in decreased crop insurance payments
and stabilized yields compared to crop insurance payments and
yields for acres not utilizing cover crops.
``(f) Funding.--
``(1) Mandatory funding.--Of the funds of the Corporation,
the Secretary shall use the following amounts to carry out this
section:
``(A) $60,000,000 for fiscal year 2024.
``(B) $66,000,000 for fiscal year 2025.

amended by adding at the end the following:
``(j) Soil Health Pilot Program.--
``(1) In general.--In addition to any other authority of
the Corporation, as soon as practicable after the date of
enactment of this subsection, the Corporation shall establish
and carry out a pilot program (referred to in this subsection
as the `pilot program') under which a producer that uses
innovative soil health practices, as determined by the
Secretary, including conservation crop rotations, may receive
additional premium subsidies on crop insurance.
``(2) Terms and conditions.--The additional premium
subsidies offered under the pilot program shall--
``(A) be offered through reinsurance arrangements
with private insurance companies;
``(B) be actuarially sound; and
``(C) require the payment of premiums and
administrative fees by the producer obtaining the
insurance.
``(3) Location.--The Corporation shall conduct the pilot

and oversight involved in the administration of such Federal

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 3482
To require the Secretary of Labor to establish a pilot program for
providing portable benefits to eligible workers, and for other
purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Ms. DelBene (for herself, Mr. Moulton, Mr. Peters, and Mr. Himes)
introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on
Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require the Secretary of Labor to establish a pilot program for
providing portable benefits to eligible workers, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Portable Benefits for Independent
Workers Pilot Program Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Many independent workers, constituting a growing
percentage of the workforce in the United States, do not have
access to benefits and protections typically provided through
traditional full-time employment.
(2) These independent workers are independent contractors,
temporary workers, or self-employed, or work pursuant to other
contingent or alternative work arrangements.
(3) According to a 2015 study by the Comptroller General of
the United States, the size of the contingent workforce grew
from 35 percent of employed workers in 2006 to 40 percent of
employed workers in 2010.
(4) According to a 2016 study by economists Lawrence Katz
and Alan Krueger, 94 percent of net employment growth in the
United States economy from 2005 to 2015 occurred in alternative
work arrangements.
(5) As the population of independent workers grows, it is
increasingly important that workers are provided portable
benefits.
SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.
In this Act:
(1) Eligible organization.--The term ``eligible
organization'' means any State or local government or any
nonprofit organization.
(2) Eligible work.--The term ``eligible work'' means any
work performed that is not in connection with traditional full-
time employment.
(3) Eligible worker.--The term ``eligible worker'' means
any worker who is not a traditional full-time employee of the
entity hiring the worker for the eligible work, including any
independent contractor, contract worker, self-employed
individual, freelance worker, temporary worker, or contingent
worker.
(4) Portable benefits.--The term ``portable benefits''--
(A) means work-related benefits that are provided
to eligible workers for eligible work in a manner that
allows the worker to maintain the benefits upon
changing jobs; and
(B) includes--
(i) contributions on behalf of the eligible
worker made by an entity (including multiple
entities, if applicable) in connection with
eligible work performed by the worker for the
entity, including entities that facilitate the
sale of such work;
(ii) contributions made by the eligible
worker; or
(iii) a combination of the contributions
described in clauses (i) and (ii).
(5) Secretary.--The term ``Secretary'' means the Secretary
of Labor.
(6) Work-related benefits.--The term ``work-related
benefits'' means benefits, including protections, of a type
that are commonly provided to traditional full-time employees,
such as workers' compensation, skills training, disability
coverage, health insurance coverage, retirement saving, income
security, and short-term saving.
SEC. 4. ESTABLISHMENT OF PORTABLE BENEFITS PILOT PROGRAM.
(a) In General.--The Secretary, in consultation with the head of
any other relevant Federal agency, shall award grants for fiscal year
2024, on a competitive basis, to eligible organizations to support
broad innovation and experimentation with respect to portable benefits.
(b) Uses of Funds.--
(1) Types of grants.--The grants awarded under subsection
(a) shall be grants for--
(A) the evaluation, or improvement to the design or
implementation, of existing models or approaches for
providing portable benefits; or
(B) the design, implementation, and evaluation of
new models or approaches for providing such benefits.
(2) Requirement regarding retirement-related benefits.--An
eligible organization that receives a grant under subsection
(a) may not use the grant to fund a model or approach described
in paragraph (1) that provides only retirement-related
benefits.
(c) Potential for National Applicability.--In awarding grants under
subsection (a), the Secretary shall consider the potential of the model
or approach described in subsection (b)(1) to be replicated on a large
scale or at the national level.
(d) Applications.--Each eligible organization that desires to
receive a grant under subsection (a) shall submit an application to the
Secretary, at such time, in such manner, and accompanied by such
information as the Secretary may require.
SEC. 5. REPORT TO CONGRESS.
Not later than September 30, 2024, the Comptroller General of the
United States shall evaluate the outcome of the grants awarded under
section 4(a) and provide a report on such evaluation to Congress. Such
report shall include an assessment of the impact of such grants on the
compensation of workers receiving portable benefits under section 4.
SEC. 6. AUTHORIZATION OF APPROPRIATIONS.
(a) In General.--There is authorized to be appropriated for fiscal
year 2024--
(1) $5,000,000 to carry out the grants described in section
4(b)(1)(A); and
(2) $15,000,000 to carry out the grants described in
section 4(b)(1)(B).

necessary to carry out the purposes of this Act, may restrict exports
of--
``(1) coal, petroleum products, natural gas, or
petrochemical feedstocks; and
``(2) supplies of materials or equipment that the President
determines to be necessary--
``(A) to maintain or further exploration,

any crude oil or natural gas exports that the President
determines to be consistent with--
``(i) the national interest; and
``(ii) the purposes of this Act.
``(B) Requirements.--An exemption from a rule
prohibiting crude oil or natural gas exports under
paragraph (1)--
``(i) shall be--
``(I) included in the rule; or
``(II) provided for in an amendment
to the rule; and
``(ii) may be based on--
``(I) the purpose for export;
``(II) the class of seller or
purchaser;
``(III) the country of destination;
or
``(IV) any other reasonable
classification or basis that the
President determines to be--
``(aa) appropriate; and
``(bb) consistent with--
``(AA) the national
interest; and
``(BB) the purposes
of this Act.
``(c) Imposition of Restrictions.--
``(1) In general.--In order to implement any rule

``(d) Restrictions and National Interest.--Any finding by the
President pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) and any action taken by the

respect to the promulgation of any rule pursuant to this
section.
``(2) Waiver.--
``(A) In general.--The President may waive with
respect to the promulgation of any rule pursuant to
this section the notice and comment provisions of
subchapter II of chapter 5 of title 5, United States
Code, only if the President determines that compliance
with the requirements may seriously impair the ability
of the President to impose effective and timely
prohibitions on exports.
``(B) Opportunity for comment.--If the notice and
comment provisions of subchapter II of chapter 5 of
title 5, United States Code, are waived under
subparagraph (A) with respect to a rule promulgated
under this section, the President shall provide
interested persons an opportunity to comment on the
rule as soon as practicable after the date on which the
rule is promulgated.
``(3) Enforcement and penalty provisions.--If the President
determines to request the Secretary of Commerce to impose
specified restrictions pursuant to subsection (c), the
enforcement and penalty provisions of the Export Control Reform
Act of 2018 (50 U.S.C. 4801 et seq.) shall apply to any
violation of the restrictions.''.

Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. prec. 6201) is
amended by inserting after the item relating to section 101 the
following:

equipment.''.

A BILL
To amend title 10, United States Code, to eliminate the recoupment of
separation pay, special separation benefits, and voluntary separation
incentive payments from members of the Armed Forces who subsequently
receive disability compensation under laws administered by the
Department of Veterans Affairs and to impose limitations on the
authority of the Secretary of Defense to recoup such pay from members
who subsequently receive military retired or retainer pay.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Restore Veterans' Compensation Act
of 2023''.
SEC. 2. RECOUPMENT OF SEPARATION PAY, SPECIAL SEPARATION BENEFITS,
VOLUNTARY SEPARATION INCENTIVE, AND VOLUNTARY SEPARATION
PAY AND BENEFITS FROM MEMBERS OF THE ARMED FORCES.
(a) Separation Pay Upon Involuntary Discharge or Release From
Active Duty and Special Separation Benefits.--
(1) Elimination of recoupment from members receiving
veterans disability compensation.--Paragraph (2) of section
1174(h) of title 10, United States Code, is amended to read as
follows:
``(2)(A) A member who has received separation pay under this
section, or severance pay or readjustment pay under any other provision
of law, based on service in the armed forces shall not be deprived, by
reason of the receipt of such separation pay, severance pay, or
readjustment pay, of any disability compensation to which the member is
entitled under the laws administered by the Department of Veterans
Affairs.
``(B) The amount of disability compensation to which a member may
be entitled under the laws administered by the Department of Veterans
Affairs may not be reduced on account of the receipt of separation pay,
severance pay, or readjustment pay.''.
(2) Recoupment from members receiving retired or retainer
pay limited to net amount of separation pay.--Section
1174(h)(1) of title 10, United States Code, is amended by
inserting before the period at the end the following: ``, less
the amount of Federal income tax withheld from the separation
pay, severance pay, or readjustment pay (such withholding being
at the flat withholding rate for Federal income tax
withholding, as in effect pursuant to regulations prescribed
under chapter 24 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986)''.
(3) Percentage limitations on recoupment from members
receiving retired or retainer pay and recoupment process.--
Section 1174(h)(1) of title 10, United States Code, as amended
by paragraph (2), is further amended--
(A) by inserting ``(A)'' after ``(1)'';
(B) by striking ``shall specify, taking into
account the financial ability of the member to pay and
avoiding the imposition of undue financial hardship on
the member and member's dependents,'' and inserting
``(subject to subparagraph (B)) shall specify''; and
(C) by adding at the end the following new
subparagraphs:
``(B) The amount deducted under subparagraph (A) from a payment of
retired or retainer pay may not exceed 25 percent of the amount of the
member's retired or retainer pay for that month unless the member
requests deductions at an accelerated rate. The Secretary of Defense
shall consult with the member regarding the repayment rate to be
imposed, taking into account the financial ability of the member to pay
and avoiding the imposition of an undue hardship on the member and the
member's dependents.
``(C) The deduction of amounts from the retired or retainer pay of
a member under this paragraph may not commence until the date that is
90 days after the date on which the Secretary of Defense notifies the
member of the deduction of such amounts under this paragraph. Any
notice under this subparagraph shall be designed to provide clear and
comprehensive information on the deduction of amounts under this
paragraph, including information on the determination of the amount and
period of installments under this paragraph.
``(D) The Secretary of Defense may waive the deduction of amounts
from the retired or retainer pay of a member under this paragraph if
the Secretary determines that deduction of such amounts would result in
a financial hardship for the member.''.
(b) Conforming Amendments.--
(1) Voluntary separation incentive.--Section 1175(e) of
title 10, United States Code, is amended--
(A) in paragraph (3)(A)--
(i) by striking the first sentence and
inserting the following new sentence:
``Subsection (h) of section 1174 of this title
shall apply to any member who has received the
voluntary separation incentive and who later
qualifies for retired or retainer pay under
this title or for disability compensation under
the laws administered by the Department of
Veterans Affairs.''; and
(ii) in the second sentence, by striking
``the deduction required under the preceding
sentence'' and inserting ``the deduction from
the member's retired or retainer pay''; and
(B) by striking paragraph (4) and redesignating
paragraph (5) as paragraph (4).
(2) Voluntary separation pay and benefits.--Subsection (h)
of section 1175a of title 10, United States Code, is amended to
read as follows:
``(h) Coordination With Retired or Retainer Pay and Disability
Compensation.--(1) Subsection (h) of section 1174 of this title shall
apply to any member who receives voluntary separation pay under this
section and who later qualifies for retired or retainer pay under this
title or title 14 or for disability compensation under the laws
administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
``(2) No deduction shall be made from the disability compensation
paid to an eligible disabled uniformed services retiree under section
1413, or to an eligible combat-related disabled uniformed services
retiree under section 1413a of this title, who is paid voluntary
separation pay under this section.
``(3) The requirement under this subsection to repay voluntary
separation pay following retirement from the armed forces does not
apply to a member who was eligible to retire at the time the member
applied and was accepted for voluntary separation pay and benefits
under this section.''.
(c) Effective Date and Application of Amendments.--The amendments
made by this section shall take effect on the first day of the first
month beginning on or after the date of the enactment of this Act. In
the case of deductions to be made from the retired or retainer pay of
members of the uniformed services, the amendments shall apply to that
month and subsequent months.

appropriate in order to minimize any adverse impact on
individuals enrolled under a medicare supplemental

Discrimination.--
``(1) In general.--The Secretary shall request the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners to review and revise the
standards for all benefit packages under subsection (p)(1),
including the core benefit package, in order to provide
coverage consistent with paragraph (2). Such revisions shall be
made consistent with the rules applicable under subsection
(p)(1)(E) (with the reference to the `1991 NAIC Model
Regulation' deemed a reference to the NAIC Model Regulation as
most recently updated by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners to reflect previous changes in law and the
reference to `date of enactment of this subsection' deemed a
reference to the date of enactment of this subsection).
``(2) Changes in cost-sharing described.--Under the revised
standards, coverage shall not be available under a Medicare
supplemental insurance policy unless the issuer of the policy,

policy because of the age of the individual to whom the
policy is issued;
``(B) does not, to an extent that jeopardizes the
access to such policy for individuals who are eligible
to participate in the program under this title because
the individuals are individuals described in paragraph
(2) or (3) of section 1811, discriminate in the pricing
of the policy because the individual to whom the policy
is issued is so eligible to participate in such program
because the individual is an individual so described in
such a paragraph; and
``(C) does not establish premiums applicable under
such policy on a basis that would apply to a portion
of, but not the entirety of, a county or equivalent
area specified by the Secretary.
``(3) Application date.--The revised standards shall apply

information regarding the rules that, in each State,
pertain to guaranteed issue of medicare supplemental
health insurance policies prior to implementation of
the provisions of the Close the Medigap Act of 2023
and, in the case that a State has no such rules
pertaining to guaranteed issue of such policies, clear
language explaining the implications of such lack of
rules for individuals with pre-existing conditions;
``(2) not later than January 1, 2024, and periodically
thereafter, perform a review of such website in order to ensure
that such website makes available to individuals entitled to
benefits under part A or enrolled under part B the information
that the Secretary determines is necessary for such individuals
to make informed choices regarding their options under the
program under this title; and
``(3) not later than 12 months after the last day of each
period for the request for information under subsection (e),
update such website, taking into consideration the information
collected pursuant to such subsection, to clarify the
presentation of consumer options for medicare supplemental
health insurance policy options, including by presenting such

regarding the applicable premiums under such policy
options as of the date on which such website is so
updated;
``(B) facilitates consumers' ability to compare and
sort policy options and premium information across plan
offerings in a given location;

drug plans available pursuant to part D.
``(e) Not later than 6 months after the date of the enactment of
this subsection and beginning on December 7 of each year thereafter,

including recommendations, from stakeholders regarding potential
improvements to the presentation of medicare supplemental health
insurance policy options under section 1882 on the Medicare plan finder
internet website of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (or a
successor website).
``(f) With respect to any information that the Secretary makes
available on the Medicare plan finder internet website of the Centers
for Medicare & Medicaid Services (or a successor website) pursuant to
subsection (d), the Secretary shall, prior to making such information
available--
``(1) provide, in consultation with the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners, an opportunity for
consumer testing of such information;
``(2) share the results of such consumer testing of such
information with interested stakeholders; and
``(3) provide a 60-day public comment period with respect
to such information.''.

amended by striking subsection (z).

A BILL
To expedite completion of the Mountain Valley Pipeline, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Mountain Valley Pipeline Completion
Act''.
SEC. 2. EXPEDITING COMPLETION OF THE MOUNTAIN VALLEY PIPELINE.
(a) Definition of Mountain Valley Pipeline.--In this section, the
term ``Mountain Valley Pipeline'' means the Mountain Valley Pipeline
project, as generally described and approved in Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission Docket Nos. CP16-10, CP19-477, and CP21-57.
(b) Congressional Findings and Declaration.--The Congress hereby
finds and declares that the timely completion of construction and
operation of the Mountain Valley Pipeline is required in the national
interest. The Mountain Valley Pipeline will serve demonstrated natural
gas demand in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast regions, will
increase the reliability of natural gas supplies and the availability
of natural gas at reasonable prices, will allow natural gas producers
to access additional markets for their product, and will reduce carbon
emissions and facilitate the energy transition.
(c) Approval and Ratification of Existing Authorizations.--Congress
hereby ratifies and approves all authorizations, permits,
verifications, extensions, biological opinions, incidental take
statements, and any other approvals or orders issued pursuant to
Federal law related to the Mountain Valley Pipeline.
(d) Expedited Approval.--Notwithstanding any other provision of
law, not later than 21 days after the date of enactment of this Act and
for the purpose of facilitating the completion of the Mountain Valley
Pipeline--
(1) the Secretary of the Army shall issue all permits or
verifications necessary--
(A) to complete the construction of the Mountain
Valley Pipeline across the waters of the United States;
and
(B) to allow for the operation and maintenance of
the Mountain Valley Pipeline;
(2) the Secretary of Agriculture shall amend the Land and
Resource Management Plan for the Jefferson National Forest in a
manner that is substantively identical to the record of
decision with respect to the Mountain Valley Pipeline issued on
January 11, 2021, as may be modified by a subsequently issued
record of decision following the Supplemental Environmental
Impact Statement issued on April 13, 2023; and
(3) the Secretary of the Interior shall grant and maintain
all necessary rights-of-way and temporary use permits in a
manner that is substantively identical to those rights-of-way
and temporary use permits approved with respect to the Mountain
Valley Pipeline issued on January 14, 2021, or as may be
modified by any subsequently issued rights-of-way and temporary
use permits.
(e) Judicial Review.--
(1) No action taken by the Secretary of the Army, the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Secretary of
Agriculture, the Secretary of the Interior, or a State
administrative agency acting pursuant to Federal law that
grants an authorization, permit, verification, biological
opinion, incidental take statement, or any other approval
related to the Mountain Valley Pipeline, including the issuance
of any authorization, permit, extension, verification,
biological opinion, incidental take statement, or other
approval described in subsection (c) or (d) of this section for
the Mountain Valley Pipeline, whether issued prior to or
subsequent to the date of enactment of this section shall be
subject to judicial review, and any lawsuit (including any
lawsuit pending in a court as of the date of enactment of this
section) seeking judicial review of such an agency order or
action shall not be filed or maintained in any court and shall
be promptly dismissed.
(2) The United States Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit shall have original and exclusive jurisdiction
over any claim alleging the invalidity of this section or that
an action is beyond the scope of authority conferred by this
section.
(f) Effect.--This section supersedes any other provision of law
(including any other section of this Act or other statute, any
regulation, any judicial decision, or any agency guidance) that is
inconsistent with the issuance of any authorization, permit,
verification, biological opinion, incidental take statement, or other
approval for the Mountain Valley Pipeline.

H. R. 3501
To amend the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to
authorize a grant program for law enforcement agencies and corrections
agencies to obtain behavioral health crisis response training for law

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Ms. Kaptur (for herself, Mrs. Bice, Mr. Carter of Louisiana, Mr.
Landsman, Ms. Brownley, and Ms. Titus) introduced the following bill;
which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to
authorize a grant program for law enforcement agencies and corrections
agencies to obtain behavioral health crisis response training for law
enforcement officers and corrections officers, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Law Enforcement Training for Mental
Health Crisis Response Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS; PURPOSE.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Law enforcement and corrections officers routinely
respond to emergencies involving individuals suffering from a
mental health crisis.
(2) Recent statistics have shown that as many as--
(A) 1 in every 10 calls for police response involve
a person suffering from a mental illness;
(B) 1 in every 4 people killed by police suffer
from a mental health problem; and
(C) 1 in 3 people transported to a hospital
emergency room for psychiatric reasons are taken by the
police.
(3) Law enforcement response calls to individuals suffering
from substance use disorder have increased during the current
opioid epidemic.
(4) There is a need to ensure that law enforcement officers
have access to proper evidence-based training in responding to
mental health crises.
(5) Proper training for response to individuals suffering
from a mental health crisis can better protect the safety of
the general public and law enforcement officers.
(6) Law enforcement and corrections officers in the United
States can better serve their communities if the officers
receive training to effectively and safely resolve the mental
health crises.
(b) Purpose.--The purpose of this Act is to provide grants to
State, local, and Tribal law enforcement agencies and corrections
agencies to obtain behavioral health crisis response training for law
enforcement officers and corrections officers to--
(1) better train law enforcement officers and corrections
officers to resolve behavioral health crisis situations;
(2) reduce the number of law enforcement officers and
corrections officers killed or injured while responding to a
behavioral health crisis; and
(3) reduce the number of individuals killed or injured
during a behavioral health crisis in which a law enforcement
officer or corrections officer responds.
SEC. 3. LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING FOR MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS GRANT
PROGRAM.
(a) Reservation of Funds.--Section 506 of the Omnibus Crime Control
and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (34 U.S.C. 10157) is amended by adding at
the end the following:
``(c) Of the total amount made available to carry out this subpart

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
May 18, 2023
Ms. Kelly of Illinois (for herself and Mr. Fitzpatrick) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To direct the Secretary of Health and Human Services, acting through
the Director of the National Institutes of Health, to take certain
steps to increase clinical trial diversity, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``NIH Clinical Trial Diversity Act of
2023''.
SEC. 2. DIVERSITY GOALS FOR CLINICAL TRIALS.
(a) Applications.--Beginning on the date of the enactment of this
Act, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, acting through the
Director of the National Institutes of Health (in this section referred
to as the ``Secretary''), shall require that a sponsor seeking to
conduct a clinical trial investigating a drug, device (as those terms
are defined in section 201 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(21 U.S.C. 321 et seq.)) biological product (as defined in section
351(i) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 262(i))), or
behavioral intervention, the protocol for which is approved by the
National Institutes of Health, to submit an application (or renewal
thereof) for such approval that includes--
(1) clear and measurable goals for the recruitment and
retention of participants that reflect--
(A) the race, ethnicity, age, and sex of patients
with the disease or condition being investigated; or
(B) the race, ethnicity, age, and sex of the
general population of the United States if the
prevalence of the disease or condition is not known;
(2) a rationale for the goals specified under paragraph (1)
that specifies--
(A) how investigators will calculate the number of
participants for each population category that reflect
the population groups specified in paragraph (1); or
(B) strategies that will be used to enroll and
retain participants across the different race,
ethnicity, age, and sex categories;
(3) a detailed plan for how the clinical trial will achieve
the goals specified under paragraph (1) that specifies--
(A) the requirements for researchers, in conducting
the trial, to analyze the population groups specified
in paragraph (1) separately;
(B) the role of community partners or community
institutional review boards in reviewing the plans; and
(C) how the trial will recruit a study population
that is--
(i) in proportion to the prevalence of the
disease or condition in such groups relative to
the prevalence of the disease or condition in
the overall population of the United States;
(ii) in sufficient numbers to obtain
clinically and statistically meaningful
determinations of the safety and effectiveness
of the drug, device, biological product, or
behavioral intervention being studied in the
respective race, ethnicity, age, and sex
groups; and
(iii) consistent with the guidance under
section 505(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(b)(1)) and
guidance issued by the National Institutes of
Health on the inclusion of women and minorities
in clinical trials;
(4) the sponsor's plan for implementing, or an explanation
of why the sponsor cannot implement, alternative clinical trial
follow-up requirements that are less burdensome for trial
participants, such as--
(A) requiring fewer follow-up visits;
(B) allowing phone follow-up or home visits by
nurse trial coordinators (in lieu of in-person visits
by patients);
(C) allowing for online follow-up options;
(D) permitting the patient's primary care provider
to perform some of the follow-up visit requirements;
(E) allowing for evening and weekend hours for
required follow-up visits;
(F) allowing virtual or telemedicine visits;
(G) use of wearable technology to record key health
parameters; and
(H) use of alternate labs or imaging centers, which
may be closer to the residence of the patients
participating in the trial; and
(5) the sponsor's education and training requirements for
researchers and other individuals conducting or supporting the
clinical trial with respect to diversity and health inequities
in, and the development of, curricula for healthcare
professionals on how to participate in clinical trials as an
investigator and how they can enroll patients in trials, which
may include consultation with, and the review of materials made
available by, such committees, task forces, working groups, and
other entities the Director determines are appropriate,
including the following:
(A) The Equity Committee of the National Institutes
of Health.
(B) The National Advisory Council on Minority
Health and Health Disparities.
(C) The Advisory Committee on Research on Women's
Health.
(D) The Tribal Health Research Coordinating
Committee of the National Institutes of Health.
(b) Terms.--
(1) In general.--As a condition on the approval of a
protocol to conduct a clinical trial by the National Institutes
of Health, as described in subsection (a), the sponsor of the
clinical trial shall agree to terms requiring that--
(A) the aggregate demographic information of trial
participants be shared on an annual basis with the
Secretary while participant recruitment and data
collection in such trial is ongoing, and that such
information is provided with respect to--
(i) underrepresented populations, including
populations grouped by race, ethnicity, age,
and sex; and
(ii) such populations that reflect the
prevalence of the disease or condition that is
the subject of the clinical trial involved (as
available and as appropriate to the scientific
objective for the study, as determined by the
Director of the National Institutes of Health);
(B) the sponsor submits to the program officer and
grants management specialist of the specific National
Institutes of Health national research institute or
national center, annually or as frequently as such
officer or specialist determines necessary, the
retention rate of participants in the clinical trial,
disaggregated by race, ethnicity, age, and sex;
(C) both the clinical trial researchers and the
applicant reviewers complete education and training
programs on diversity in clinical trials; and
(D) at the conclusion of the trial, the sponsor
submits to the Secretary the number of participants in
the trial, disaggregated by race, ethnicity, age, and
sex.
(2) Privacy protections.--Any data shared under paragraph
(1) may not include any individually identifiable information
or protected health information with respect to clinical trial
participants and shall only be disclosed to the extent allowed
under Federal privacy laws.
(c) Exception.--In lieu of submitting an application under
subsection (a) and documentation of goals as required by paragraph (1)
of such subsection, an applicant may provide reasoning for why the
recruitment of each of the population groups specified in paragraph (1)
of subsection (a) is not necessary and why such recruitment is not
scientifically justified or possible.
(d) Publication.--The Secretary shall--
(1) publish on a public website of the National Institutes
of Health, upon receipt of an application to which subsection
(a) applies--
(A) a summary of the disease being targeted in the
clinical trial that is the subject of the application
and the prevalence of such disease across race,
ethnicity, age, sex, and the clinical trial
representation in each such category;
(B) the goals specified in such application, as
required by subsection (a)(1); or
(C) the reasoning described in subsection (c); and
(2) ensure that, in publishing information relating to an
application under paragraph (1), the design of the study
involved is not disclosed.
(e) Remediation.--
(1) In general.--In the case of a clinical trial subject to
subsection (a) that fails to meet the condition specified
pursuant to subsection (a) by such date as may be agreed upon
by the sponsor of the trial and the program officer and grants
management specialist of the specific National Institutes of
Health national research institute or national center, the
Secretary shall require the sponsor of that clinical trial, not
later than 90 days after such date occurs--
(A) to develop, in consultation with the Secretary
and advocacy and community-based organizations
representing individuals who are members of relevant
demographic groups specified in subsection (a)(1), a
strategic plan to increase participation in such
clinical trial of such individuals; and
(B) to submit to the Secretary such strategic plan.
(2) Publication.--The Secretary shall make publicly
available on the website of the National Institutes of Health,
the strategic plan received under paragraph (1) as soon as
possible after receipt. The Secretary shall ensure that, in
publishing such plan under the preceding sentence, the design
of the study involved is not disclosed.
(3) Implementation.--The sponsor of the clinical trial that
is the subject of the strategic plan published under paragraph
(2), shall, not later than 90 days after such date as may be
agreed upon by the sponsor of the trial and the appropriate
program officer and grants management specialist of the
National Institutes of Health, implement the strategic plan.
(4) Technical assistance.--The Secretary may provide
technical assistance to a sponsor of a clinical trial, as
necessary for the sponsor to meet the requirements of paragraph
(3).
(f) Waiver for Certain Clinical Trials.--
(1) In general.--In the case of a clinical trial that
received funding through the National Institutes of Health and
is ongoing as of the date of the enactment of this Act, the
sponsor of such clinical trial is exempt from the requirements
of (and associated penalties imposed by) this Act.
(2) Report.--The Secretary shall include in the triennial
report required to be submitted under section 403 of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 283), a list of all clinical
trials receiving funding through the National Institutes of
Health that requested and received waivers under this section.
(g) Study.--
(1) In general.--The Comptroller General of the United
States shall conduct a study that--
(A) examines which actions Federal agencies have
taken to address barriers to participation in federally
funded clinical trials by the demographic groups
specified in subsection (a)(1); and
(B) identifies challenges, if any, in implementing
such actions.
(2) Report.--Not later than 1 year after the date of the
enactment of this Act, the Comptroller General of the United
States shall submit to Congress a report on the findings of the
study conducted under paragraph (1).
