                Amendment No. 5 Offered by Mr. MacArthur

  Mr. MacARTHUR. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
  The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Mooney of West Virginia). The Clerk will 
designate the amendment.
  The text of the amendment is as follows:

       At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the 
     following:
       Sec. __.  None of the funds made available by this Act may 
     be used to divest or retire, or to prepare to divest or 
     retire, KC-10 aircraft.

  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 303, the gentleman 
from New Jersey and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from New Jersey.
  Mr. MacARTHUR. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I may 
consume.
  I have an amendment regarding the KC-10 air-to-air refueling tanker.
  Air superiority is critical if we are going to protect our men and 
women on the ground and our interests, and that requires that we have 
fighters in the air. It is of vital importance. It is why the Air 
Mobility Command is so important. It may not be as exciting as fighters 
and close air support, but it is every bit as essential. The KC-10 air-
to-air refueler is the larger, newer of the tankers, and the KC-135 is 
the smaller, older version.
  This is the problem. The KC-46 is a new tanker that the Air Force is 
introducing. It has had development problems, and it is not ready for 
prime time. General Welch of the Air Force confirmed that the new 
tanker was not intended to replace the KC-10 but that it is at risk of 
being replaced due to budget cuts, and he has confirmed that it would 
cost more in the midterm to replace the KC-10.
  Just to put the difference in capabilities in perspective, the KC-10 
can carry 350,000 pounds of fuel. The other tanker--the older KC-135--
and the new KC-46 can only carry 200,000. It is 200,000 versus 350,000. 
The KC-10 carries double the payload, and it carries more passengers. 
The long and the short is that this tanker is essential for our ability 
to project force, and in this world of increased global threats, we 
cannot afford to deteriorate our capabilities.
  The answer, I believe, is to prohibit the early retirement of the KC-
10 tanker. We did that in the National Defense Authorization Act. There 
is no provision in the budget to replace the KC-10. I am simply looking 
to close the loop tonight and prohibit in the Defense Appropriations 
bill any funding for the early retirement of the KC-10.
  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. MacARTHUR. I yield to the gentleman from New Jersey.
  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Let me congratulate the gentleman from New Jersey, 
my colleague, for his advocacy on behalf of the KC-10.
  Mr. Chairman, none of the good work we have done in the Middle East 
could have been done without the remarkable history of the men and 
women who work on those KC-10s and these tankers, allowing so many 
flights to go without any problems, any issues. That is a remarkable 
plane. I support the gentleman's amendment, and I congratulate him for 
introducing it.
  Mr. NORCROSS. Will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. MacARTHUR. I yield to the gentleman from New Jersey.
  Mr. NORCROSS. Mr. Chairman and my colleagues from New Jersey, I stand 
in support of this amendment, and I appreciate the fact that 
Congressman MacArthur has kept in the forefront how important this is, 
not just for New Jersey but for our Nation as a whole.
  We are strategically located in that one area that makes it extremely 
efficient to refuel. More importantly, we have two ways of getting the 
fuel to those planes, which is so strategically important. It is over 
land and it is underground. That has been why McGuire-Fort Dix has been 
the place for this command to be joined together for years and years. I 
think this is not only strategically smart for our country, but this is 
an efficient way of spending the taxpayers' money to make sure that we 
get the best bang for the buck.
  Mr. MacARTHUR. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
  The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the 
gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. MacArthur).
  The amendment was agreed to.


                    Amendment Offered by Mr. Schiff

  Mr. SCHIFF. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
  The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the 
     following:
       Sec. __.  None of the funds made available by this Act may 
     be used after March 31, 2016, for Operation Inherent Resolve 
     in the absence of a law enacted by Congress before such date 
     that specifically authorizes the use of military force 
     against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 303, the gentleman

[[Page H4114]]

from California and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from California.
  Mr. SCHIFF. Mr. Chairman, 10 months ago, we entered into the war 
against ISIS. During the course of that war, we have put our pilots and 
other servicemembers at considerable risk, and we have suffered 
casualties. We have expended hundreds of millions, if not billions, of 
dollars, and, as yet, there is no end in sight to this conflict.
  In the beginning of the conflict and our participation in it, the 
administration took the position that it didn't need an authorization 
from Congress although it desired one. The administration relied on the 
authorities that were passed in 2001 and 2002. The authority in 2001, 
passed in the hours after 9/11, authorized the use of force against 
those responsible for 9/11. That is al Qaeda. He also relied on the 
authorization passed in 2002, which authorized the use of force against 
Iraq. In fact, neither of those authorities is on point. The use of 
force that we are employing now against ISIL is being used against an 
organization that didn't exist on 9/11 and, in fact, is often at war 
with the organization that was responsible for 9/11. That is al Qaeda.
  Nonetheless, the administration has asserted that it can rely on 
these authorities, and it asked Congress to pass a new authorization 
because it felt that was the preferential course. At the time and 
before the midterm elections, the leadership in the House of 
Representatives took the position that a lame duck Congress should not 
be voting on a new war and that a vote must wait until after the 
elections. So the Congress abdicated its constitutional responsibility 
to have a debate and a war declaration, and, instead, we awaited the 
elections.
  The elections came and the elections went, and those of us who raised 
the cry that it was time for Congress to do its job were met with a new 
response: we couldn't vote on an authorization now because the 
administration had not sent us one, even though there is nothing in the 
Constitution that provides that Congress shall declare war only when 
asked by the Executive or only when asked politely by the Executive. 
Nonetheless, we sat, once again, derelict until the administration sent 
us a draft authorization.

                              {time}  2300

  Then there was a new explanation for inaction. We couldn't act on 
this new authorization because we didn't like the terms of it. This was 
irrespective of the fact that the Congress has all the power it needs 
to change that draft or operate under a completely new draft 
authorization, and still we did nothing.
  Then the explanation was given we couldn't act on a war authorization 
because we had to have a vote on the negotiations with Iran, even 
though those negotiations were not yet complete. So we had a vote on 
the negotiations with Iran, in fact, a vote to later have a vote.
  Now we are here once again with a series of shifting rationales for 
why we don't have a debate on this war ongoing now for 10 months. This 
must come to an end. The amendment that I have offered this evening 
would provide that no funds shall be expended for the war against ISIS 
after a certain date in March of next year unless Congress authorizes a 
war against ISIS. If this is worth fighting--and I believe it is; I 
believe this ought to be authorized--it is worth having Congress do its 
job. If we are going to ask our servicemembers to risk their lives, we 
ought to have the courage ourselves to make a vote on this war.
  I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to the 
amendment.
  The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 
minutes.
  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, currently, U.S. forces are 
conducting multiple airstrikes against ISIL in Iraq and Syria. Without 
this authority, these campaigns would stop immediately.
  Should this Authorization for Use of Military Force be replaced? 
Perhaps it should. On May 19, Speaker Boehner urged President Obama to 
start from scratch on a measure to legally authorize the Islamic State 
conflict, declaring, ``We don't have a strategy.'' I agree with the 
Speaker, we have no strategy with regard to ISIL.
  Recently, President Obama stated he still does not have a complete 
strategy for defeating the Islamic State. A sad commentary--shifting 
rationale, shifting strategy, no strategy. At a time when sectarian 
tensions are at their highest levels since the end of Operation Iraqi 
Freedom in December of 2001, the terrorists have once again succeeded 
in capturing control of major cities in Iraq, killing innocent 
citizens, causing thousands of families to flee.
  What kind of message are we sending with this amendment to both the 
Iraqi people, to our soldiers and marines who have valiantly served and 
sacrificed, and even now the President suggesting sending another 400 
advisers to advise and to train and equip Iraqis to recapture Ramadi?
  This amendment is not about substance; it is about symbolism. 
Unfortunately, its effect would be much more than symbolism. Acceptance 
of this amendment would rob our Nation of one of the key authorities 
our Commander-in-Chief relies on to keep us safe. I strongly urge 
rejection of the amendment.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. SCHIFF. May I inquire how much time I have remaining?
  The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from California has 1\1/2\ minutes 
remaining.
  Mr. SCHIFF. I yield 30 seconds to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. 
Visclosky), my colleague.
  Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chairman, if I could make a comment. As the 
chairman indicated, this is a very complicated situation. Because lives 
are at stake, it is all the more reason, I think, to support the 
gentleman's amendment to force this body, if you would, to very 
carefully define what our purpose is, what our policy is, and how we 
should go about its implementation. I do support the gentleman's 
amendment and thank him for yielding time.
  Mr. SCHIFF. I thank the gentleman and would like to respond to my 
colleague's points.
  First of all, the effect of this is not to end funding immediately. 
The effect of this would end funding in 9 months if we fail to take up 
and pass an authorization. Certainly, 10 months into the war and 9 
months from now ought to be ample time for the Congress to do its 
constitutional duty.
  Second, my colleague makes the point that he doesn't agree with the 
President's strategy. We may take issue with the President's strategy, 
and we all have our opinions about how this war ought to be waged, but 
one thing is clear: it is not going to impact the strategy if Congress 
does its job or not. That impacts our institution; that doesn't impact 
the Presidency. It is our institutional interest in having a voice in 
the war-making authority that is at stake here.
  Finally, the gentleman asked: What kind of a message are we sending 
with an amendment like this? I would say the message we are sending is 
that we value our Constitution; we respect the requirements of our 
Constitution. Our Constitution says that Congress--not the Executive, 
but Congress--shall have the power to declare war.
  My colleague says this is merely a symbolic act. I suppose that is 
true if you think that the constitutional clause that gives the 
Congress the power to declare war is only symbolic, but I think it is 
far more than symbolic and key to the balance of power.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the 
gentleman from California (Mr. Schiff).
  The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes 
appeared to have it.
  Mr. SCHIFF. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further 
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentleman from California 
will be postponed.


                    amendment offered by mr. walberg

  Mr. WALBERG. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
  The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the 
     following:
       Sec. 10003.  None of the funds made available by this Act 
     may be used to promulgate Directive 293, issued December 16, 
     2010, by

[[Page H4115]]

     the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs.

  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 303, the gentleman 
from Michigan and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Michigan.
  Mr. WALBERG. Mr. Chairman, I rise in support of my amendment that 
would reiterate Congress' objection to a proposed policy change by the 
Department of Labor's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, 
OFCCP, that would treat healthcare providers as Federal contractors.
  In December of 2010, OFCCP quietly issued directive 293, asserting 
that contractual arrangements under Medicare, TRICARE, and the Federal 
Employees Health Benefits Program will trigger OFCCP jurisdiction. This 
is absurd. This directive would reclassify a majority of hospitals in 
the United States as Federal contractors, subjecting hospitals in your 
district and mine to OFCCP's often crushing regulatory burden.
  With respect to TRICARE, the agency aggressively asserted its 
jurisdiction in a 2009 administrative case, OFCCP v. Florida Hospital 
of Orlando. OFCCP argued the hospital was a Federal subcontractor by 
virtue of its participation as a provider of a TRICARE network of 
providers. The agency took this troubling position despite the fact 
that the Department of Defense, which regulates TRICARE, previously 
concluded, Mr. Chairman: ``It would be impossible to achieve the 
TRICARE mission of providing affordable health care for our Nation's 
Active Duty and retired military members and their families if onerous 
Federal contracting rules were applied to the more than 500,000 TRICARE 
providers in the United States.''
  Unfortunately, the administrative law judge in the case did not heed 
DOD's warning and failed to see this policy change for what it is--an 
expansion of government power over the healthcare sector. As such, 
Congress acted to oppose this outreach, and in 2012 the National 
Defense Authorization Act clarified that a TRICARE network healthcare 
provider is not--is not--a Federal contractor or subcontractor.
  As chairman of the Subcommittee on Workforce Protections, I am deeply 
concerned by this attempt by OFCCP to expand its jurisdiction through 
executive fiat. In response, I introduced the Protecting Health Care 
Providers from Increased Administrative Burdens Act in the 113th 
Congress, which clarified that healthcare providers are not Federal 
contractors subject to the jurisdiction of the Department of Labor's 
OFCCP.
  Our actions on the committee in bringing attention to this issue have 
been successful in prompting OFCCP to place a moratorium on the policy. 
However, as OFCCP has previously defied Congress and the Department of 
Defense, I believe this amendment is necessary. Therefore, I ask the 
House support my amendment that would prohibit funds to be used under 
this act for implementing this overreaching policy and affirmatively 
show the House will not support such actions by the Department of Labor 
and OFCCP.
  Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.
  The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the 
gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Walberg).
  The amendment was agreed to.
  Mr. VISCLOSKY. Mr. Chair, I move to strike the last word.
  The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Indiana is recognized for 5 
minutes.
  Mr. VISCLOSKY. I yield to the gentlewoman from Michigan for a 
colloquy.
  Mrs. LAWRENCE. I thank the ranking member for yielding.
  As you know, TRICARE provides coverage to over 9.5 million people 
worldwide, including Active Duty, activated Guard and Reserve members, 
retiree survivors, and their families. To ensure coverage, they must 
choose between independently practicing TRICARE certified medical 
health counselors and/or supervised mental health counselors.
  I entered my amendment and withdrew it, but it is important that we 
get this on the Record.
  The independent providers must have a master's degree from a mental 
health counseling program accredited by the Council for Accreditation 
of Counseling and Related Educational Programs, which we call CACREP. 
They must also pass the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Exam 
by January 1, 2017.
  But this rule unfortunately has unintended consequences that require 
counselors to complete their education at an institution that only has 
been accredited by CACREP. This freezes out some of our most respected 
institutions, including Harvard, Columbia, and, in my home State of 
Michigan, the University of Michigan and Michigan State University.
  I am extremely concerned about and would ask for the committee's 
support in addressing this issue. With more time, we can get this 
right, ensure our military members have as much access to care as 
possible.
  Mr. VISCLOSKY. I would like to thank the gentlewoman from Michigan 
for bringing this issue to the committee's attention. I look forward to 
working with her on it to address the unintended consequences of the 
existing DOD rule.
  I yield back the balance of my time.


          Amendment No. 2 Offered by Mr. Huizenga of Michigan

  Mr. HUIZENGA of Michigan. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the 
desk.
  The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment.
  The text of the amendment is as follows:

       At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the 
     following:
       Sec. 10003.  None of the funds made available by this Act 
     may be used by the Defense Logistics Agency to implement the 
     Small Business Administration interim final rule titled 
     ``Small Business Size Standards; Adoption of 2012 North 
     American Industry Classification System'' (published August 
     20, 2012, in the Federal Register) with respect to the 
     procurement of footwear.

  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 303, the gentleman 
from Michigan and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Michigan.
  Mr. HUIZENGA of Michigan. Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I 
may consume.
  I rise today to offer this amendment that will ensure a fair and open 
bidding process to supply our men and women on the front lines with one 
of the most indispensable pieces of equipment that they use every day--
their boots.
  My amendment would prohibit the use of funds by the Defense Logistics 
Agency to implement the 2012 Small Business Administration's rule in 
regard to footwear preventing the Defense Logistics Agency from bidding 
the contract as a small business set-aside.
  When SBA released this rule, there was significant concern that they 
did not go through the normal rulemaking and public comment process, 
and more specifically did not perform due diligence on how the changes 
would actually affect the footwear industry and military supply base, 
which the SBA has acknowledged.
  This rule dramatically changed the competitive landscape amongst 
companies supplying very compliant footwear to the U.S. military. There 
are very few of these manufacturers here in the United States, and even 
fewer that manufacture Berry Compliant footwear. This amendment would 
ensure that all businesses capable of supplying high-quality footwear 
to our warfighters are able to compete for that contract.

                              {time}  2315

  I might add, Mr. Chairman, that last year, we had been able to get 
language inserted in that would call for a study. I just wanted to have 
a quick quote from that on the impact of jobs. This is from the report 
that was issued:

       Although the overall impact on the industrial base is low, 
     the abrupt and drastic change in the small business size 
     standards is likely to have an impact. The DOD footwear 
     industry is highly capable, but also very dependent on DOD 
     orders. It's important to consider both the short-term and 
     long-term health of the industrial base.
       The industry is also a critical element to the Nation's 
     national security because of the enduring need to meet 
     wartime footwear requirements.

  The emphasis here is mine. Given the industry's sensitive and 
critical position, such abrupt and drastic policy changes that impact 
the competitive landscape should be executed with greater moderation.

[[Page H4116]]

  I think, Mr. Chairman, that is the concern here today, and that is 
why I would urge my colleagues to support this vital amendment.
  I do appreciate the opportunity for dialogue that I have been having 
with my colleague from Illinois and also with the Small Business 
Committee on that.
  I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. BOST. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to the gentleman's 
amendment.
  The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from Illinois is recognized for 5 
minutes.
  Mr. BOST. Mr. Chairman, as you may know, the reason I stand in 
opposition is the Small Business Administration sets these standards. 
As of 2012, this standard was set in place.
  Though I am more than willing to work with the gentleman in the 
future on what might come forward actually through the Small Business 
Committee, the concern I have is that those that do qualify under small 
business inadvertently, through his language, would be removed from 
that.
  The concern I have also is that is located in my district, with a 
company that has already received a contract under that.
  It is a process that we have in place. We know that there may be 
flaws in the process, and in the Small Business Committee, we are going 
to be working on those. I believe that the gentleman has sincere hopes 
to try to straighten this problem out for his district. I understand 
that.
  I believe that this is not the way to do this. I stand in opposition. 
I hope that others will join me in voting ``no'' on this, but I do give 
the commitment that, if a ``no'' vote does occur, I will be working 
with him.
  Mr. VISCLOSKY. Will the gentleman yield?
  Mr. BOST. I yield to the gentleman from Indiana.
  Mr. VISCLOSKY. I appreciate the gentleman yielding, and I simply 
would add my voice to his in opposition to the gentleman's amendment.
  It is certainly my belief and understanding that the Defense 
Logistics Agency is executing an acquisition program that maximizes to 
every extent possible long-term contracts and multiple award strategies 
that limit variability to limit each vendor's economic risk.
  The gentleman mentions small manufacturers. Some of the largest 
companies in the country are involved at the Department of Defense, 
which is fine. They do wonderful work for our country. We ought to make 
sure that we protect the prerogatives of small businesses to make sure 
that they are on equal footing for these contracts so that you have 
that limit on economic risk for all vendors, big and small.
  I appreciate the gentleman's objection, and I would join him in it.
  Mr. BOST. I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. HUIZENGA of Michigan. Mr. Chairman, in closing, I do appreciate 
my colleague from Illinois and other members from the Small Business 
Committee who are committed to working at this.
  The concern, again, would be one of our capacity and our industrial 
base and being able to supply that most vital of needs for our men and 
women in uniform, which is their footwear. When we talk about large, we 
talk about small at the same time because 400 is the number of west 
Michigan jobs that are in the balance here; but we wouldn't be able to 
reach the full capacity if we needed to surge again in a very unstable 
world, as we have been dealing with a number of crises around the 
world.
  Mr. Chairman, I urge a ``yes'' vote, and I yield back the balance of 
my time.
  The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the 
gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Huizenga).
  The amendment was agreed to.


                      Amendment Offered by Ms. Lee

  Ms. LEE. Mr. Chairman, I have an amendment at the desk.
  The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will report the amendment.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       At the end of the bill (before the short title), add the 
     following:
       Sec. __.  None of the funds made available by this Act may 
     be obligated or expended pursuant to the Authorization for 
     Use of Military Force (Public Law 107-40; 50 U.S.C. 1541 
     note) after December 31, 2015.

  Ms. LEE (during the reading). Mr. Chair, I ask unanimous consent to 
dispense with the reading.
  The Acting CHAIR. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from California?
  There was no objection.
  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to House Resolution 303, the gentlewoman 
from California and a Member opposed each will control 5 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from California.
  Ms. LEE. Mr. Chairman, my amendment is really very simple. It is 
cosponsored by Representatives Grijalva and Ellison. It prohibits any 
funding in this bill pursuant to the 2001 Authorization for the Use of 
Military Force after December 31, 2015.
  This timeline gives the President and the Congress sufficient time--
that is 8 months after this is signed into law--to determine what if 
any authorization would be needed to replace the 2001 AUMF.
  This amendment is not only timely, but it really is necessary. On 
September 14, 2001, I could not vote for the 2001 AUMF. That was an 
authorization that I knew would provide a blank check to wage war any 
time, for any length, anywhere.
  In the last 14 years, it has become increasingly clear that this 
authorization has essentially provided the President--this is any 
President--President Bush, now President Obama--the authority to wage 
war against anyone, anywhere, at any time, against any country, with no 
authorization from Congress.
  In fact, the Congressional Research Service has found that the 2001 
AUMF has been used more than 30 times to justify military action and 
other activities, including warrantless surveillance and wiretapping, 
indefinite detention practices at GTMO, targeted killing operations 
using lethal drones, and the open-ended expansion of military 
operations abroad, which have nothing to do with the original 
congressional intent.
  In addition to the activities I mentioned, the AUMF has reportedly 
been invoked to deploy troops in Afghanistan, Yemen, Djibouti, Kenya, 
Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Somalia. The 2001 AUMF is now being cited as the 
authority for the now 10-month-long war against ISIL--and, yes, we are 
in a war.
  We know that ISIL must be degraded and dismantled, but Congress must 
do our job. We should debate and vote on the use of force. That is our 
constitutional responsibility.
  I know that, while many of us may not share a common position on how 
to deal with the 2001 authorization, many of us do agree that the 
overly broad authority is a major and concerning deterioration of 
congressional oversight and warmaking authority.
  I think many of us can agree that a robust debate and vote is 
necessary, long overdue, and must take place, whatever we believe about 
how we should vote. The American people deserve to have their 
Representatives speak for them on these grave matters which the 
Constitution requires.
  Let me be clear. With the 2001 authorization still on the books in 
its current form, any administration can continue to rely on this blank 
check to wage endless war. That is why my amendment to prohibit funding 
for the 2001 AUMF after December 31, 2015, is so important.
  There was very little debate. I remember that very moment that we had 
this debate on this resolution 12 years ago. I think the debate maybe 
was about 1 hour--pro and con, 30 minutes. I probably was the only one 
who voted and said ``no'' in terms of the debate, but it wasn't a very 
long debate, and I am sure, if we had had more time to debate this, 
more Members would have realized that this was a blank check.
  Let's repeal this. I have introduced this legislation once again to 
get this off the books. Congress cannot continue to abdicate its 
constitutional responsibility while the United States now is embroiled 
in yet another open-ended war in the Middle East.
  We can begin to address this today by passing this amendment, 
providing Congress and the President with plenty of time to decide what 
measures should replace this authorization before the end of the year.
  I yield to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Visclosky), our ranking 
member, and thank him for his leadership.

[[Page H4117]]

  Mr. VISCLOSKY. I thank the gentlewoman for yielding, and I join in 
support of her amendment.
  As she indicated, more than 14 years have passed. The United States 
withdrew their large troop presence and marked the end of combat 
operations in Iraq since then. Security operations for Afghanistan were 
transferred to the Afghan National Security Forces in June of 2013. The 
basic mission of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan has been to train 
those forces, including the Afghan Army.
  I think the gentlewoman made a very good point. She and I may not 
agree on what that resolution and authority should look like in the 
end, all the more reason for all of us collectively, both parties, to 
have a fulsome debate on that issue.
  Ms. LEE. I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I claim the time in opposition.
  The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman from New Jersey is recognized for 5 
minutes.
  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I rise in opposition to the 
gentlewoman's amendment.
  In order to prosecute the global war on terrorism, one of our primary 
current missions, the President, our Commander in Chief, relies on this 
Authorization for the Use of Military Force, which he is trying and 
attempting to repeal.
  This AUMF, better known as the 9/11 AUMF, is necessary for the 
Department of Defense and U.S. military forces to address conducting 
campaigns against al Qaeda and al Qaeda-related affiliated forces 
worldwide by using this authority. It has been used by both this 
President and his predecessor since 2001.
  Granted, this amendment was written to sunset on the last day of this 
calendar year, but without a follow-on authority in place, killing the 
9/11 AUMF would tie our Nation's hands and our Commander in Chief's 
hands with regard to combating worldwide terrorism in 7 short months.
  This amendment cripples our ability to conduct counterterrorism 
operations with partner nations and our allies against al Qaeda and 
their affiliates.
  Once again, the gentlewoman attempts to put in place a major policy 
change that does not belong in an appropriations bill, this Defense 
bill.
  The terrorist threat today is no less real and, in many ways, far 
more dangerous than it was when Congress overwhelmingly gave the 
President that authority in 2001 to protect us against those who want 
to do us harm.
  These terrorist organizations pose a real threat to United States 
persons and interests. It is my judgment this amendment erroneously 
assumes that al Qaeda and its affiliates ended their terrorist acts 
once major military operations ceased in Afghanistan. Obviously, they 
haven't.
  Recent disastrous events in Yemen and, most recently, frightening 
developments in Iraq and Syria have shown its affiliates and new 
terrorist groups are on the rise.
  This amendment would effectively eliminate the President's ability to 
address that threat or other emerging threats from al Qaeda and like-
minded groups in north Africa, the Horn of Africa, and elsewhere and 
leave our Nation and our allies more vulnerable to attacks.
  Therefore, I strongly urge opposition to this amendment, and I yield 
back the balance of my time.
  The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the 
gentlewoman from California (Ms. Lee).
  The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes 
appeared to have it.
  Ms. LEE. Mr. Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
  The Acting CHAIR. Pursuant to clause 6 of rule XVIII, further 
proceedings on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from California 
will be postponed.

                              {time}  2330

  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Mr. Chairman, I move that the Committee do now 
rise.
  The motion was agreed to.
  Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr. 
Woodall) having assumed the chair, Mr. Mooney of West Virginia, Acting 
Chair of the Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union, 
reported that that Committee, having had under consideration the bill 
(H.R. 2685) making appropriations for the Department of Defense for the 
fiscal year ending September 30, 2016, and for other purposes, had come 
to no resolution thereon.

                          ____________________
