(1) Section 1087 of the John S. McCain National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 115-232;
132 Stat. 1992) established and authorized funding for the
National Commission on Military Aviation Safety (in this
subsection referred to as the ``Commission'').
(2) The mission of the Commission as an independent
establishment was to undertake a comprehensive study of
United States military aviation mishaps that occurred between
fiscal years 2013 and 2018 in order--
(A) to assess the rates of military aviation mishaps
between fiscal years 2013 and 2018 compared to historic
aviation mishap rates;
(B) to make an assessment of the underlying causes
contributing to accidents arising from the unexplained
physiological effects of flying;
(C) to make an assessment of causes contributing to delays
in aviation maintenance and limiting operational availability
of aircraft;
(D) to make an assessment of the causes contributing to
military aviation mishaps; and
(E) to make recommendations on the modifications, if any,
of safety, training, maintenance, personnel, or other
policies related to military aviation safety.
(3) The Commission released its report to the President and
Congress on December 1, 2020, and found that the United
States Armed Forces lost a total of 224 lives,
$11,600,000,000, and 186 aircraft to training accidents or
routine operations between fiscal years 2013 and 2020.

(2) misunderstanding of the physiological effects of the
human-machine interface;
(3) byzantine planning, contracting, and program management
processes;
(4) continued need for predictable and reliable funding;
(5) over-extension of aviation forces as a result of high
demand and low density;

occupational specialties that require complex, career paths
to support aviation safety, readiness, and operational tempo;

not be a source of planning, plotting, or projection of
terrorist attacks around the globe, including against the
United States homeland;
(2) the intelligence community's annual threat assessment
for 2021 warned that ISIS and al-Qaeda remain among ``the
greatest . . . terrorist threats to U.S. interests overseas;
they also seek to conduct attacks inside the United States,
although sustained U.S. and allied [counterterrorism]
pressure has broadly degraded their capability to do so'';
(3) the Afghan Study Group advised ``that a complete U.S.
withdrawal without a peace agreement would allow [al-Qaeda
and ISIS] to gradually rebuild their capabilities in the
Afghanistan-Pakistan region such that they might be able to
attack the U.S. homeland within eighteen to thirty-six
months'';
(4) in the February 2020 agreement signed between the
United States and the Taliban, the Taliban promised not to
allow ``other individuals or groups, including al-Qaeda, to
use the soil of Afghanistan to threaten the security of the
United States and its allies'';
(5) in a report to the United Nations Security Council in
May 2020, a United Nations monitoring team assessed that
``al-Qaeda has been operating covertly in Afghanistan while
still maintaining close relations with the Taliban'';
(6) the transition of United States and coalition forces
from Afghanistan by September 11, 2021, should not be
perceived as marking the end of efforts by the United States
and its allies and partners to counter and degrade the threat
from al-Qaeda, ISIS, and other terrorist groups; and
(7) the United States should continue to devote sufficient
resources, intelligence collection capabilities, and analysis
to counter the terrorist threat from al-Qaeda, ISIS, and
other terrorist groups that may seek to use Afghanistan as a
safe haven.
(b) Briefing.--Not later than January 15, 2022, the
Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Director of
National Intelligence, shall brief the appropriate committees
of Congress on--
(1) the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance
capabilities and the access, basing, and overflight
requirements necessary--
(A) to determine whether the Taliban is abiding by its
commitment to break ties with al-Qaeda;
(B) to determine whether al-Qaeda and ISIS have rebuilt
their capabilities in Afghanistan such that al-Qaeda and ISIS
threaten the security of the United States and its allies;
and
(C) to support counterterrorism operations necessary to
degrade the ability of al-Qaeda and ISIS to threaten the
United States and its allies in the event that al-Qaeda or
ISIS rebuilds their capabilities; and
(2) a plan for fulfilling such requirements.
(c) Appropriate Committees of Congress Defined.--In this
section, the term ``appropriate committees of Congress''
means--
(1) the Committee on Armed Services, the Committee on
Appropriations, the Committee on Foreign Relations, and the
Select Committee on Intelligence of the Senate; and

Appropriations, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and the

(A) ``For decades, our allies have stood by our side
against common threats and adversaries, and worked hand-in-
hand to advance our shared interests and values. They are a
tremendous source of strength and a unique American
advantage, helping to shoulder the responsibilities required
to keep our nation safe and our people prosperous.''.
(B) ``Our democratic alliances enable us to present a
common front, produce a unified vision, and pool our strength
to promote high standards, establish effective international
rules, and hold countries like China to account.''.

Pacific region, and will maintain very, very close security
ties with our partner nations in the area.''.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that
the Secretary of Defense should recommit to and strengthen

territorial integrity, and collaborate on vetting Chinese
investments in strategic technology sectors and critical
infrastructure;
(5) broadening the engagement of the United States with
India, including through the Quadrilateral Security

Subtitle C--Nuclear Forces

SEC. 1531. PARTICIPATION IN UNITED STATES STRATEGIC COMMAND
STRATEGIC DETERRENCE EXERCISES.

(a) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) presidential decisions to consider or authorize the use
of nuclear weapons are of critical national importance, and
should be informed by senior officials and staff who are
intimately familiar with the likely scenarios in which such
use might be contemplated and trained in the associated
consultation and communications processes;
(2) in a world in which emerging technologies are rapidly
changing the nature of conflict, the considerations
surrounding the use of nuclear weapons have become even more
complex, challenging even those most experienced with the
intricacies of nuclear employment decision-making processes,
and that now, more than ever, effective crisis management
requires improved senior leader understanding of the
complexities of deterrence, escalation and de-escalation, and
the range of options available across all phases of a crisis
or conflict;
(3) as a result of the concerns described in paragraph (2),
section 1669 of the John S. McCain National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 115-232;
132 Stat. 2156) directed the Secretary of Defense to contract
with a federally funded research and development center to
conduct a study on the potential benefits and risks of
options to increase the time the President has to make a
decision regarding the employment of nuclear weapons;
(4) the resulting report, completed by the Institute for
Defense Analyses, found that, ``For the underlying system to
have the best chance of giving a president all of the
decision time the circumstances afford, trusted advisors
cannot be starting to become familiar with nuclear weapons
and operations in the midst of a crisis. Consequently, a
relatively simple path to maximizing presidential decision
time focuses on preparing principals for a type of decision
or situation that will be different than anything they have
encountered previously in their careers.'';
(5) in 2020, the Defense Science Board reached a similar
recommendation in assessing the national leadership command
capability, which was to ``establish an exercise, testing,
and learning regimen that is sustained and provides the
principal source of areas for continuous improvement in
capabilities and processes'';
(6) such preparation is best achieved through participation
in realistic and operationally relevant simulations of
scenarios in which a decision to authorize the use of nuclear
weapons might reasonably be considered and, accordingly,
senior officials, advisors to the President, and staff should
leverage any and all opportunities to improve their
familiarity with such scenarios and processes; and
(7) because of the highly classified nature of such
activities, the most appropriate means of improving
familiarity with such scenarios and processes is through
participation in annual exercises organized and executed by
the United States Strategic Command and Joint Staff or
through other appropriate nuclear and command control
exercises conducted on a regular basis.
(b) Participation in United States Strategic Command
Strategic Deterrence Exercises.--

SEC. 1545. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON NATO SECURITY AND NUCLEAR
COOPERATION BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND THE
UNITED KINGDOM.

It is the sense of the Senate that--
(1) the United States strategic nuclear deterrent, and the
independent strategic nuclear deterrents of the United
Kingdom and

[[Page S8627]]

the French Republic, are the supreme guarantee of the
security of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (commonly
referred to as ``NATO'') and continue to underwrite peace and
security for all members of the NATO alliance;
(2) the security of the NATO alliance also relies upon
nuclear sharing arrangements that predate, and are fully
consistent with, the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of
Nuclear Weapons, done at Washington, London, and Moscow July
1, 1968, and entered into force March 5, 1960 (commonly
referred to as the ``Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty'');
(3) such arrangements provide for the forward deployment of
United States nuclear weapons in Europe, along with the
supporting capabilities, infrastructure, and dual-capable
aircraft dedicated to the delivery of United States nuclear
weapons, provided by European NATO allies;
(4) in parallel to the independent commitments of the
United States and the United Kingdom to the enduring security
of NATO, the nuclear programs of the United States and the
United Kingdom have enjoyed significant collaborative
benefits as a result of the cooperative relationship
formalized in the Agreement for Cooperation on the Uses of
Atomic Energy for Mutual Defense Purposes, signed at
Washington July 3, 1958, and entered into force August 4,
1958, between the United States and the United Kingdom
(commonly referred to as the ``Mutual Defense Agreement'');
(5) the unique partnership between the United States and
the United Kingdom has enhanced sovereign military and
scientific capabilities, strengthened bilateral ties, and
resulted in the sharing of costs;
(6) as the international security environment deteriorates
and potential adversaries expand and enhance their nuclear
forces, the extended deterrence commitments of the United
Kingdom play an increasingly important role in supporting the
security interests of the United States and allies of the
United States and the United Kingdom;
(7) additionally, the extension of the nuclear deterrence
commitments of the United Kingdom to members of the NATO
alliance strengthens collective security while reducing the
burden placed on United States nuclear forces to deter
potential adversaries and assure allies of the United States;
(8) it is in the national security interest of the United
States to support the United Kingdom with respect to the
decision of the Government of the United Kingdom to maintain
its nuclear forces to deter countries that are
``significantly increasing and diversifying their nuclear
arsenals'' and ``investing in novel nuclear technologies and
developing new `warfighting' nuclear systems'' that could
threaten NATO allies, as outlined in the March 2021 report of
the Government of the United Kingdom entitled, ``Global
Britain in a Competitive Age: The Integrated Review of
Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy'';
(9) as the United States continues to modernize its aging
nuclear forces to ensure its ability to continue to field a
nuclear deterrent that is safe, secure, and effective, the
United Kingdom faces a similar challenge;
(10) bilateral cooperation on such programs as the Trident
II D5 weapons system, the common missile compartment for the
future Dreadnought and Columbia classes of submarines, and
the parallel development of the W93/Mk7 warhead of the United
States and the replacement warhead of the United Kingdom,
will allow the United States and the United Kingdom to
responsibly address challenges within their legacy nuclear
forces in a cost-effective manner that--
(A) meets national requirements and preserves independent,
sovereign control;
(B) is consistent with each country's obligations under the
Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty; and
(C) supports nonproliferation objectives; and
(11) continued cooperation between the nuclear programs of
United States and the United Kingdom is essential to ensuring
that the NATO alliance continues to be supported by credible
nuclear forces capable of preserving peace, preventing
coercion, and deterring aggression.

SEC. 1546. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON MAINTAINING DIVERSITY IN
THE NUCLEAR WEAPONS STOCKPILE.

(a) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) in order to ensure adequate confidence in the
functionality of the United States nuclear weapons stockpile,
the National Nuclear Security Administration must maintain
sufficient diversity in the designs and types of nuclear
weapons it makes available to the Department of Defense;
(2) the Department of Defense should leverage that
diversity to field a force with an appropriate mix of
capabilities and technological distinctiveness to ensure that
the United States nuclear deterrent remains capable of
meeting military requirements, even during the unlikely event
of a technical issue that renders one particular type of
nuclear weapon temporarily or permanently unsuitable for
deployment; and
(3) accordingly, it is in the national security interest of
the United States to maintain no fewer than two distinct
types of deployed nuclear weapons per leg of the nuclear
triad in order to ensure that no potential adversary, nor
United States ally, doubts the continuing effectiveness of
the United States nuclear deterrent.
(b) Definitions.--In this section:
(1) Types of nuclear weapons.--The term ``type'', with
respect to nuclear weapons, means a unique configuration of
nuclear explosive packages contained within a warhead or
gravity bomb assembly.
(2) Nuclear triad.--The term ``nuclear triad'' means the
combination of platforms and delivery systems that comprise
the strategic nuclear forces of the United States, organized
by domain (known as a ``leg''), and consists of the
following:
(A) For the land leg, LGM-30G Minuteman III
intercontinental ballistic missiles, any associated reentry
vehicles, and the planned replacement systems for such
missiles and vehicles.
(B) For the sea leg, Ohio class fleet ballistic missile
submarines, UGM-133 Trident II submarine-launched ballistic
missiles, any associated reentry vehicles, and the planned
replacement systems for such submarines, missiles, and
vehicles.
(C) For the air leg, B-52H Stratofortress long-range heavy
bombers, B-2A Spirit stealth bombers, AGM-86B air-launched
cruise missiles, and the planned replacement systems for such
bombers and missiles.

SEC. 1547. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON GROUND-BASED STRATEGIC
DETERRENT.

(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile in
service as of the date of the enactment of this Act was first
deployed in 1970, with a planned 10-year service life.
(2) The Minuteman III force will begin experiencing
attrition and age-related component degradation, resulting in
the number of available intercontinental ballistic missiles
falling below military requirement levels in the late 2020s.
(3) In a 2014 analysis of alternatives, the Air Force
concluded that replacing the Minuteman III missile would
provide necessary capabilities at lower cost when compared
with extending the service life of the Minuteman III missile.
(4) The Director of Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation
of the Department of Defense reviewed and validated the Air
Force's 2014 analysis of alternatives, stating, ``We
recommend moving expeditiously to a Milestone A decision to
ensure the timely fielding of the future capability.
Additionally, prompt action would demonstrate Air Force and
DOD commitment to the following: the nuclear mission to the
Airmen serving in the field; our allies relying on our
umbrella nuclear deterrent coverage; the American public who
has been following recent news reports; and the world at
large.''.
(5) In February, 2015, President Barack Obama's budget
requested $75,166,000 for a new program of record to develop
a replacement for the Minuteman III intercontinental
ballistic missile, named the ground-based strategic
deterrent.
(6) In connection with the decision to begin the ground-
based strategic deterrent program in 2015, the Department of
Defense did not undertake new engineering and production
efforts for components necessary to conduct a long-term life
extension of the current Minuteman system.
(7) General Timothy Ray, former Commander of Air Force
Global Strike Command, testified before the Subcommittee on
Strategic Forces of the Committee on Armed Services of the
Senate on May 12, 2021, that the most recent cost estimate
indicates that attempting a long-term life extension of the
Minuteman III system would--
(A) cost $38,000,000,000 more than the ground-based
strategic deterrent program;
(B) deliver a less-capable, less-secure, less-sustainable
system; and
(C) be unable to deliver life-extended systems in time to
offset age-related erosion of the Minuteman fleet, resulting
in ``a significant gap, in [intercontinental ballistic
missile] capability''.
(8) Since 2015, and during multiple presidential
administrations, Congress has authorized and appropriated
more than $2,800,000,000 to develop the ground-based
strategic deterrent.
(9) The ground-based strategic deterrent program has been
shown to be a cost-effective solution to maintain the land-
based leg of the nuclear triad.
(10) The ground-based strategic deterrent program has been
leading the efforts of the Department of Air Force at digital
engineering able to run millions of scenarios on the most
cost-effective design and government-owned baseline.
(11) The ground-based strategic deterrent will provide the
United States with a modern, reliable system capable of
meeting emergent challenges while lowering sustainment costs
and also improving safety and security.
(12) The Air Force's comprehensive approach to the ground-
based strategic deterrent will also address aging
infrastructure and modernize nuclear command and control
capabilities associated with the intercontinental ballistic
missile fleet, much of which remains predominantly unchanged
since the 1960s.
(13) The marked erosion of global security conditions and
continued increase in the quantity and quality of foreign
nuclear arsenals reinforces the need to modernize the United
States nuclear deterrent, including the land-based leg of the
nuclear triad.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) intercontinental ballistic missiles are a critical
component of the United States nuclear deterrent, providing
the ability to hedge between legs of the nuclear triad in

[[Page S8628]]

the case of a component-wide failure in another leg;
(2) the continued development of the ground-based strategic
deterrent system, and its eventual replacement of the
Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile, is needed
to maintain an effective intercontinental ballistic missile
capability into the future;
(3) ensuring the continued effectiveness of the United
States nuclear deterrent through modernization programs such
as the ground-based strategic deterrent may also increase
opportunities for effective arms control in the future by
enhancing the confidence of the United States in the
sustainability and effectiveness of each leg of the triad,
once replaced with modern equivalents; and
(4) it is in the national security interests of the United
States that the Department of Defense prioritize an effective
and cost-efficient execution of the ground-based strategic
deterrent program before the retirement of the Minuteman III
intercontinental ballistic missile in the mid-2030s.

SEC. 6013. UNITED STATES GRAND STRATEGY WITH RESPECT TO
CHINA.

(a) Findings; Sense of Congress.--
(1) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(A) The United States is in a new era of geostrategic and
geoeconomic competition with the People's Republic of China,
a great power that seeks to challenge international norms,
laws and institutions, and confront the United States across
diplomatic, economic, military, technological, and
informational domains.
(B) As it has during previous periods of great power
competition, the United States must articulate and refine its
grand strategy, including through rigorous testing of
assumptions and by drawing on expertise outside the United
States Government, to ensure its ultimate success, as well as
global peace, stability, and shared prosperity.
(C) Historically, presidents of the United States have used
different models for grand strategy development, including
the following efforts:
(i) In January 1950, President Truman requested an in-depth
report on the state of the world, actions taken by
adversaries of the United States, and the development of a
comprehensive national strategy, resulting in a paper

SEC. 6211. SHORT TITLE.

This subtitle may be cited as the ``U.S.-Greece Defense and
Interparliamentary Partnership Act of 2021''.

SEC. 6212. FINDINGS.

Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The United States and Greece are strong allies in the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and have deepened
their defense relationship in recent years in response to
growing security challenges in the Eastern Mediterranean
region.
(2) Greece participates in several NATO missions, including
Operation Sea Guardian in the Mediterranean and NATO's
mission in Kosovo.
(3) The Eastern Mediterranean Security and Energy
Partnership Act (title II of division J of Public Law 116-
94), authorized new security assistance for Greece and
Cyprus, lifted the United States prohibition on arms
transfers to Cyprus, and authorized the establishment of a
United States-Eastern Mediterranean Energy Center to
facilitate energy cooperation among the United States,
Greece, Israel, and Cyprus.
(4) The United States has demonstrated its support for the
trilateral partnership of Greece, Israel, and Cyprus through
joint engagement with Cyprus, Greece, Israel, and the United
States in the ``3+1'' format.
(5) The United States and Greece have held Strategic
Dialogue meetings in Athens, Washington D.C., and virtually,
and have committed to hold an upcoming Strategic Dialogue
session in 2021 in Washington, D.C.
(6) In October 2019, the United States and Greece agreed to
update the United States-Greece Mutual Defense Cooperation
Agreement, and the amended agreement officially entered into
force on February 13, 2020.
(7) The amended Mutual Defense Cooperation Agreement
provides for increased joint United States-Greece and NATO
activities at Greek military bases and facilities in Larissa,
Stefanovikio, Alexandroupolis, and other parts of central and
northern Greece, and allows for infrastructure improvements
at the United States Naval Support Activity Souda Bay base on
Crete.
(8) In October 2020, Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias
announced that Greece hopes to further expand the Mutual
Defense Cooperation Agreement with the United States.
(9) The United States Naval Support Activity Souda Bay
serves as a critical naval logistics hub for the United
States Navy's 6th Fleet.
(10) In June 2020, United States Ambassador to Greece
Geoffrey Pyatt characterized the importance of Naval Support
Activity Souda Bay as ``our most important platform for the
projection of American power into a strategically dynamic
Eastern Mediterranean region. From Syria to Libya to the
chokepoint of the Black Sea, this is a critically important
asset for the United States, as our air force, naval, and
other resources are applied to support our Alliance
obligations and to help bring peace and stability.''.
(11) The USS Hershel ``Woody'' Williams, the second of a
new class of United States sea-basing ships, is now based out
of Souda Bay, the first permanent United States naval
deployment at the base.
(12) The United States cooperates with the Hellenic Armed
Forces at facilities in Larissa, Stefanovikio, and
Alexandroupolis, where the United States Armed Forces conduct
training, refueling, temporary maintenance, storage, and
emergency response.
(13) The United States has conducted a longstanding
International Military Education and Training (IMET) program
with Greece, and the Government of Greece has committed to
provide $3 for every dollar invested by the United States in
the program.
(14) Greece's defense spending in 2020 amounted to an
estimated 2.68 percent of its gross domestic product (GDP),
exceeding NATO's 2 percent of GDP benchmark agreed to at the
2014 NATO Summit in Wales.
(15) Greece is eligible for the delivery of excess defense
articles under section 516(c)(2) of the Foreign Assistance
Act of 1961 (22 U.S.C. 2321j(c)(2)).
(16) In September 2020, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos
Mitsotakis announced plans to modernize all three branches of
the Hellenic Armed Forces, which will strengthen Greece's
military position in the Eastern Mediterranean.
(17) The modernization includes upgrades to the arms of all
three branches, including new anti-tank weapons for the
Hellenic Army, new heavy-duty torpedoes for the Hellenic
Navy, and new guided missiles for the Hellenic Air Force.
(18) The Hellenic Navy also plans to upgrade its four MEKO
200HN frigates and purchase four new multirole frigates of an
undisclosed type, to be accompanied by 4 MH-60R anti-
submarine helicopters.
(19) The Hellenic Air Force plans to fully upgrade its
fleet of F-16 jets to the F-16 Viper variant by 2027 and has
expressed interest in participating in the F-35 Joint Strike
Fighter program.

SEC. 6213. SENSE OF CONGRESS.

(1) Greece is a pillar of stability in the Eastern
Mediterranean region and the United States should remain

TITLE I--ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS OF THE DEPARTMENT OF STATE

SEC. 10101. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF DEPARTMENT OF
STATE'S WORK.

It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) United States global engagement is key to a stable and
prosperous world;
(2) United States leadership is indispensable in light of
the many complex and interconnected threats facing the United
States and the world;
(3) diplomacy and development are critical tools of
national power, and full deployment of these tools is vital
to United States national security;
(4) challenges such as the global refugee and migration
crises, terrorism, historic famine and food insecurity, and
fragile or repressive societies cannot be addressed without
sustained and robust United States diplomatic and development
leadership;
(5) the United States Government must use all of the
instruments of national security and foreign policy at its
disposal to protect United States citizens, promote United
States interests and values, and support global stability and
prosperity;
(6) United States security and prosperity depend on having
partners and allies that share our interests and values, and
these partnerships are nurtured and our shared interests and
values are promoted through United States diplomatic
engagement, security cooperation, economic statecraft, and
assistance that helps further economic development, good
governance, including the rule of law and democratic
institutions, and the development of shared responses to
natural and humanitarian disasters;
(7) as the United States Government agencies primarily
charged with conducting diplomacy and development, the
Department and the United States Agency for International
Development (USAID) require sustained and robust funding to
carry out this important work, which is essential to our
ability to project United States leadership and values and to
advance United States interests around the world;
(8) the work of the Department and USAID makes the United
States and the world safer and more prosperous by alleviating
global poverty and hunger, fighting HIV/AIDS and other
infectious diseases, strengthening alliances, expanding
educational opportunities for women and girls, promoting good
governance and democracy, supporting anti-corruption efforts,
driving economic development and trade, preventing armed
conflicts and humanitarian crises, and creating American jobs
and export opportunities;
(9) the Department and USAID are vital national security
agencies, whose work is critical to the projection of United
States power and leadership worldwide, and without which
Americans would be less safe, United States economic power
would be diminished, and global stability and prosperity
would suffer;
(10) investing in diplomacy and development before
conflicts break out saves American lives while also being
cost-effective; and
(11) the contributions of personnel working at the
Department and USAID are extraordinarily valuable and allow
the United States to maintain its leadership around the
world.
