John McCain
Madam President, as we debate our system of export controls in this new era, we hear an array of arguments that reflect America's preeminent role in the world, our military and economic power, and the absence of the threat of major war that has prevailed since the demise of the Soviet Union a decade ago. We hear proud claims that trade is the new currency of international politics; that the strength of our economy, now more than ever, underpins our national power and global influence; and that in the brave new world of the Information Age, most technological flows are uncontrollable, or controls are meaningless due to the availability of the same technology from foreign competitors.

John McCain
The business of America is business, we are told, and those of us who believe national security controls exist to protect national security, rather than simply expedite American exports, are accused of old thinking, of living in a dangerous past rather than a prosperous and peaceful present. For many, the new definition of national security -- in a haunting echo of the thinking that inaugurated the last century -- predicates the safety and well-being of the American people upon the free flows of trade and finance that make our economy the envy of the world, and our business leaders a dominant force in our time.

John McCain
I am an ardent free trader, and I believe economic dynamism is indeed a central pillar of national strength. But I do not believe our prosperity requires us to forego very limited and appropriate controls on goods and technologies that, in the wrong hands, could be used to attack our civilian population here at home, or against American troops serving overseas. Experts agree that both rogue regimes and hostile terrorist organizations are actively seeking components for weapons of mass destruction, many of which are included in the list of goods we control under our current export licensing system.

Unlike in the Cold War era, when we created our export control regime to keep sensitive technologies out of the hands of the Soviet Union, this era is characterized by an array of diverse threats emanating from both hostile nations and non-state actors. Hostile nations like Iran and North Korea are disturbingly close to developing multiple-stage ballistic missiles with the capability to target the United States. These and other nations, including Syria and Iraq, receive significant and continuing technical assistance and material support for their weapons development efforts from China and Russia, with whom much of our trade in dual-use items is conducted. The intelligence community has made startlingly clear the proliferation record of China and Russia, as well as North Korea, and the adverse consequences of their weapons development and technology transfers to American security interests.

I do not believe that S. 149 adequately addresses these threats. Unfortunately, the Senate yesterday rejected a reasonable amendment offered by Senator Thompson allowing the relevant national security agencies to receive a 60-day time extension to review particularly complex license applications. This reform, proposed by the Cox Commission, and a number of amendments adopted by the House International Relations Committee in its markup of the Export Administration Act, properly addressed some of the deficiencies in the current version of S. 149.

S. 149 has the strong support of the business community and the Bush Administration. In the short term, proponents of this legislation are correct: loosening our export controls will assist American businesses in selling advanced products overseas. In another age, proponents of free trade in sensitive goods with potentially hostile nations were also correct in asserting the commercial value of such enterprise: Britain's pre-World War I steel trade with Germany earned British plants substantial profits even as it allowed Germany to construct a world-class navy. Western sales of oil to Imperial Japan in the years preceding World War II similarly earned peaceful nations commercial revenues. In both cases, friendly powers caught on to the destructive potential of such sales and embargoed them, but it was too late. Such trade inflicted an immeasurable cost on friendly nations blinded by pure faith in the market, and in the power of commerce to overcome the ambitions of hostile powers that did not share their values.

I resolutely support free trade. But I cannot with a clear conscience support passage of legislation that weakens our national security controls on sensitive exports to a point that we may one day be challenged, or face attack, from weapons derived from the very technologies we have willingly contributed to the world. Our peaceable intentions, our love of prosperity and stability, are not shared by those who would do America harm, and whose hostile ambitions today may well be matched tomorrow by the ability to deliver on that threat. We should make it harder, not easier, for them to do so.

Our export control regime should undergo significant reform to address the challenges and opportunities of our time. Proponents of S. 149 focus on the opportunities this legislation affords American business. I have worked with Senators Thompson, Kyl, Shelby, Helms, and Warner to highlight the reality that this bill does not adequately address the national security challenges we face today. National security controls cover only a tiny fraction of total American exports; the overwhelming majority of export applications for dual-use items are approved by our government; limited controls properly exist to help prevent highly sensitive technologies from falling into the wrong hands; and such safeguards are more relevant than ever in the face of the multifaceted and unconventional threats to our country unleashed by the information revolution.

A number of proponents of S. 149 argue that American companies should not be straitjacketed by U.S. national security controls even as their foreign competitors remain free to peddle similar technologies to proliferators and rogue regimes. This argument overlooks the fact that America continues to lead the world in technological innovation; our products are often unique when compared with those produced by businesses in France, Germany, or Japan. More fundamentally, such an approach only emboldens potential enemies who seek access to our markets in sensitive goods. In concert with friends and allies, we should endeavor to shame foreign companies who sell dangerous items to rogue buyers by making their identities public -- not scramble for market access in dangerous technologies at their expense, as if nothing more than corporate profits were at stake. We should also make it a diplomatic priority to construct a new multilateral export control regime, in concert with like-minded nations, to fill the vacuum created by the collapse of COCOM, which regulated Allied exports during the Cold War to keep critical technologies out of Soviet hands.

As a proud free-trader, I maintain that we should continue to carefully review our most sensitive exports; we can, in fact, exercise some control over their end use. I fear we shall one day reap the bitter harvest we sow in our neglect of the consequences to America's security of an overly complacent export licensing regime. As a nation, we may have to learn the hard way that winking at the proliferation threats we face today, in light of clear evidence that nations to which we export sensitive technologies continue to apply and share them with our enemies, diminishes our national security to a point for which no amount of corporate profits will compensate.

I thank Senator Thompson for his efforts on this legislation. I do not believe that his amendment yesterday should have been defeated. I thought it was a reasonable amendment. I think it is also another example of a compelling requirement for campaign finance reform.

I have great respect for the few opponents of this legislation. However, I believe it is a misstatement to suggest that this bill somehow diminishes our Nation's ability to control technology which needs to be controlled when in fact this legislation imposes greater controls where necessary and significantly increases penalties and decreases the likelihood of sales that are inappropriate.

Advancements in high technology allow us to "run faster" than our enemies. To foster continued advancements, we must take great care not to punish American businesses by limiting unnecessarily their marketplace, if those same products will simply be provided by our foreign competitors.

The observation is made, well, what about unique American technology? This legislation takes that into account. It allows for strong limitations where it is truly unique and where those sales would, in fact, pose some jeopardy to our Nation's security.

S. 149 balances our national security interests and our commercial interests with a first and foremost concern for national security -- appropriately so. But it does recognize that our prosperity and our security are, in fact, interrelated.

I have great gratitude for the work of Chairman Sarbanes, ranking member Gramm, Senator Enzi, and some others who have contributed in a constructive way to this legislation. And Senators Thompson and Kyl have made valuable suggestions to enhance the bill. I thank them for their role and their sincere concern for our Nation's security. I thank Senators Dayton and Roberts for their constructive input on this legislation as well.

For those who may have some concern about the expertise of the vast bipartisan majority of this Senate in support of this legislation out of national security concerns, I again remind the body that this legislation not only had the overwhelming bipartisan support of thoughtful Senators on both sides of the aisle but is urgently supported by President Bush, by Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld, Secretary of State Powell, Commerce Secretary Evans, and National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice. Certainly those in the White House have taken national security as a first and foremost concern. Any suggestion that somehow that issue has been taken lightly by the advocates of this bill is simply incorrect.

This has been, frankly, a model for how the Senate can work together for the good of our Nation. It is not a Republican bill. It is not a Democrat bill. But it is a bill put together across the aisle with the cooperation of the White House. It has been extremely gratifying, frankly, to have been so closely involved in the creation of this reauthorization.

To reject this legislation, to fall back on the Executive order, which is under legal challenge, and which extends far less authority to the White House to control the sales of high-tech items around the world, would be a tragic mistake. This Nation needs a modern dual-use technology trade regime. This legislation provides that.

Madam President, this amendment addresses the issue of foreign availability. As all who have listened to our discussion up until now realize, one of the more important pieces of S. 149 has to do with foreign availability. Essentially, what this bill does is say if the Department of Commerce makes a determination that some item has foreign availability status, then that item is essentially decontrolled. It does not go through the licensing process anymore, the idea being that it is out there and anybody can get it, and why control it.

Frankly, I think it is not a good idea. I think that foreign availability should be taken into consideration, as we always have in our export policy taken foreign availability into consideration. We do not want to try to stop the export of items that are clearly out there in the domain, but it should not be an overriding consideration. We should not be deregulating whole categories of items, and not even being able to keep up with how much we are shipping to some country, and what kind of item we are sending to some country.

This foreign availability concept takes these large categories totally outside the regulatory process that we are fearful might contain something that might turn out to be harmful to our national security. We ought to have a way for the appropriate representatives in our Government to judge these matters, item by item, and case by case, to make a determination. It may take a few days, a few weeks in some cases perhaps, to make this determination, but it is well worth it because the reason for export control laws is not primarily commerce; it is primarily national security.

If you look at this bill, you will see that the purpose of the export control law is to prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and things that are detrimental to our national security or things that potentially are. But, anyway, I am in the minority on that.

The administration supports this concept of foreign availability. The majority leadership supports this concept. So that being the case, we have attempted to enter into discussions whereby, hopefully, we could convince our colleagues on the other side of this issue that there is some validity to our concern and, hopefully, the idea being that they would make some accommodation to us on this concept.

This amendment that I have just offered makes an important change to the definition of "foreign availability." Under S. 149, items could be decontrolled and bypass any kind of review so long as similar items that were available from foreign countries were not substantially inferior to U.S. items. In other words, foreign availability would kick in and the decontrol would kick in under the bill as long as countries could get things that were not substantially inferior.

Our belief is that we ought to make sure, before we decontrol our items, they can really get items that are comparable to what we have. If they can get items that are inferior to what we have, then we should still maintain controls because we have something they cannot otherwise get. And they are sensitive matters or they would not have been on the control list. So we ought to be careful about that.

So this amendment changes that standard of "not substantially inferior" to ensure that the items are of "comparable quality" to U.S. items. It is a small but significant change that ensures that we will not decontrol superior American technology just because inferior items are available overseas.

So I think this strengthens this provision in an important way. It certainly does not address all of our concerns, but it does strengthen this provision in an important way to make sure if we are going to enter into this, what I consider to be a very large decontrol process, in a very dangerous time, to very dangerous countries, that we ought to at least make sure that if we are claiming they can get these items anyway, it is really the same kind of items we have, the same quality we have. I think this amendment would go a long way toward ensuring that.

Madam President, I thank the Senator from Tennessee for his contribution throughout this debate. As he said, we have listened and considered carefully. I am perfectly prepared to accept this amendment. And I think introducing this quality concept about which he spoke yesterday is an important improvement and addition to this bill. I am happy to be supportive of it.

Madam President, I suggest that while we are waiting on another Senator, who I believe has one more amendment to consider, we discuss the matters of deemed exports and commodity classification. We have had some discussions about those subjects also. If I may, I will simply relate what my understanding is with regard to those issues.

First of all, on the deemed export issue, we have had concerns on this side that the legislation did not adequately address the problem of deemed exports. As most who follow this issue know, a deemed export comes about when, in a typical situation, sensitive information is passed to a foreign national who perhaps is working at one of our National Laboratories or working in one of our businesses on sensitive information, who may or may not have a government contract, the idea being that with regard to the physical exporting of an item, that information should then be controlled when giving it to a foreign national. That should be reported. We should go through a reasonable process to make sure no damage is being done.

We learned from hearings with regard to our National Laboratories, for example, that we were woefully behind as a government from even private industry; that we were not paying attention in our National Laboratories to the deemed export requirements. There were hardly any deemed export notifications or licenses issued by our laboratories. Our laboratories contain probably the most sensitive matters that we have in this Nation, including the maintenance of our nuclear stockpile, our Stockpile Stewardship Program, including information concerning our most sensitive weapons.

We believed we should deal with the deemed export issue. The administration has said it would like to address this complex issue -- and it is complex -- through regulation rather than include it in the legislation. We have agreed that a letter will be sent to the administration from both supporters and opponents of this bill asking the administration to review existing regulations and address this issue.

Continued control of deemed exports is an essential component of our export control process. Right now there is substantial noncompliance, as I said. This letter is designed to urge the administration to develop new regulations that ensure understanding of and compliance with the responsibility to control deemed exports.

I understand there are some in the business community who do not like the concept of deemed exports at all. My understanding and intention, as far as this letter is concerned, is not to give the administration the option of continuing a deemed export policy or not; it is to tighten up the policy and make sure it is updated and clear in terms of what responsibilities are under that policy.

It is a reasonable request that they be given the opportunity to address it. It is a very complex issue. We don't want to create onerous requirements. These foreign students and scientists who come to America make valuable contributions in many different ways. But we simply have to exercise common sense and protect ourselves and go through an appropriate process when it comes to deemed exports.

Madam President, again, I appreciate the care, concern, and detail in which the Senator from Tennessee and the Senator from Arizona, and others who have participated on this, have expressed their concerns about the deemed export controls. We do recognize that the problem is not primarily in the private sector; that it is primarily in the government and educational and health institutions. The private sector has some proprietary rights they try to preserve, but it would be a problem there, too, and we wanted it addressed in all those sectors.

Madam President, let me explain what this amendment does and indicate to my colleagues that I believe I have the concurrence of the chairman of the committee and the ranking member of the subcommittee and have met this morning with the ranking member of the Banking Committee who worked out the language with us. In fact, much of this is his language.

This is the amendment I spoke to yesterday regarding the post- shipment verification that sometimes has to occur when we say, in the granting of an export, we will grant the license to send the item overseas but for a peaceful purpose, for a commercial purpose, or research, or university, a business purpose; we don't want you to take this item and put it in your defense facility or a nuclear weapons facility, something of that kind. We are going to verify, after we ship it, that it went to the right place.

Remember these are dual-use items. They have two different uses. They may be very useful in a private way, business way. They may also be useful in a military way. Let me give an example.

Not too long ago, some folks in Germany developed a very important medical device called the lithotriptor which, with a high-energy beam, literally zaps kidney stones so they break up into a million little pieces and surgery is not necessary to remove them. It is a very important medical treatment now for people. It is nonintrusive, no surgery, and has a great success rate.

These are very sophisticated pieces of equipment. They have some special switching components in them. It turns out that Iraq has found that those switches are useful in their nuclear weapons program. This is a good example of a dual-use item. It was not invented for defense purposes. It has an item in it that can be used for weapons. We know that. We don't want that item to be used for that purpose.

Saddam Hussein has ordered 50 of these. I don't think there is a need for 50 lithotriptors in Iraq, frankly. We want to be careful about the export of items that are available on the market. Any hospital can buy a lithotriptor if they have enough money. They are available. By now I am sure there are more companies than just the one German company that make them. These are items that can be acquired. They have dual-use capabilities.

In the granting of an export license on this kind of product, you have to be careful that it is not used for military purposes.

The bill has a provision in it which says that if a company to which you sell, let's say a company in China, uses this product improperly, or they don't let you inspect to see where they have used it to verify that the shipment went to where it was supposed to go, then the Secretary shall cut that company off from further exports; they can't buy anything else from the United States.

But since countries such as China have established a rather gray relationship between the Government and businesses, there also needs to be a way of making the same point with the Government of China or any other government.

I am not trying to pick on China. There happen to be some very egregious examples of the Government of China right now not living up to agreements or post-shipment verification. We need to have some kind of enforcement mechanism in a country such as China as well. I proposed that we have the same kind of provision and say if the Chinese Government won't permit a post-shipment verification, then the Secretary shall stop such exports until they begin to comply. Well, supporters of the bill said, "That is too drastic; why don't you say `may' so that the Secretary has total discretion?" I was willing to do that. That would have been the simplest way to solve the problem.

That is something I would like to offer in the spirit of cooperation with my friend Phil Gramm, who said, "Let's try to work a few of these things out; since we know the bill will pass, you can make it marginally better." So we sat down with him. Frankly, the language we are offering is not what I would have personally offered, but it is acceptable to him and it marginally makes the bill better. I will read it and offer it. It is simple. It says: If the country in which the end user is located refuses to allow post-shipment verification of a controlled item, the Secretary may deny a license for the export of that item, any substantially identical or directly competitive item or class of items, any item that the Secretary determines to be of equal or greater sensitivity than the controlled item, or any controlled item for which a determination has not been made pursuant to section 211 to all end users in that country until such post-shipment verification is allowed.

That latter reference to section 211 has to do with the item subject to foreign availability. It would have been simpler to say the Secretary may deny a license for any item on the list until post- shipment verification is allowed by the country in question. Total discretion of the Secretary would have been easier. We have created jobs for lawyers now. I am not necessarily against that, but when we have terms such as this in the statute, we are going to have litigation on what it means. It would have been easier to do it the other way. But this is the language I will offer. The Secretary, at least with respect to some items on the control list, can say to a country such as China, for example: Until you are willing to allow post-shipment verification of items A and B, which you already have, then we are not going to grant a license on items X, Y, and Z. They can pick what those items are if they so choose.

In closing, I will give examples of what would happen to illustrate the need for this particular provision. In 1998, very recently, China agreed to allow post-shipment verification for all exports. They signed an agreement. But the Cox Commission issued its report and deemed the terms of the agreement wholly inadequate, from the U.S. point of view, to ensure that these verifications really occur.

The amendment I proposed is designed to try to fill a void the Cox Commission identified in the U.S.-China agreement. For example, the Commission's report discusses a number of weaknesses in the agreement as it relates to the export of high-performance computers. According to the Bureau of Export Administration, out of 857 high performance computers that have been shipped to China, only 132 post-shipment verifications have been performed. Some of these have been outstanding for a long time. First you get foot-dragging, and then you get a "no." On other occasions they say: If you allow us to do the post- shipment verification, that ought to suffice. But, of course, it does not. These items would not necessarily be subject to the terms of this section, although they might. I think it illustrates the nature of the problem that exists if you don't have an enforcement mechanism. You have to have the will to enforce.

I think there will be great questions as to whether or not the Secretary, in the exercise of his discretion, is going to be willing to deny a license to an American company which, after all, hasn't done anything wrong and is simply trying to make a buck, in order to get China to enforce the limitation. Let me respond to that point.

Any American company which understands that the item it is wanting to export to a third-tier country, countries of concern here, has dual-use capability has to exercise some responsibility. I think it has to take some of the consequences of the person to whom it is exporting not being willing to guarantee that the item is going to be used for appropriate purposes.

So I don't think you can make the case that all we are doing here is potentially punishing American businesses that are totally innocent and therefore we should not really be very forward-leaning in the enforcement of this section.

The fact is that any American business worth its salt should want to ensure that the terms of the export license are being complied with. It doesn't want to sell dual-use technology to a country that could use it against us militarily. It ought to be willing to ensure that the verification of the end user has in fact been established and enforced.

So it seems to me there is no argument that all we are doing here is hurting American businesses. Any American business would have the same interest as the U.S. Government in ensuring that the end user is in fact who it is supposed to be, both from a national security standpoint and being able to make future exports.

There has even been an idea advanced, that I think has some merit, which would put all of the burden on American business. It would basically privatize this enforcement and say the Government is going to get out of this business; it cost a lot of money, and we have trouble getting in the door to verify these things. Private industry, in effect, has to certify that the item it sold abroad went to the user that filled out on the form the certificate. And if the company isn't willing to verify that, or isn't able to certify it under penalty of some financial detriment here in the United States, then it is going to become much more careful about to whom those items are sold and how the post-shipment verification is actually implemented.

So my suggestion to American businesses is, if you really want to continue to be able to export, then help us work out a system that ensures that these items you are exporting, which have a dangerous potential use, get to the proper people and are not misused. If you are not willing to help us do this and if you are going to argue against enforcement of a section such as this, then something worse could happen. You could have the enforcement responsibility put on your shoulders. And if you are not able to certify that it went to the right place, you are not going to be able to make exports in the future. Everybody should have an interest in making this work.

Let me close with a note about some testimony that verified the need for this. David Tarbell, Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Technology Security Policy, testified in July at a hearing before the House International Relations Committee regarding the right to perform post-shipment verifications. He very diplomatically said:

The point here is to create something that we do have confidence in, that we know would work, that we can enforce and ensure the safety and security of the United States in the future, knowing we have not allowed the wrong people to get the wrong things into their hands in a way that comes back against the United States in a military way.

Madam President, I ask the Senator from Maryland if we may make a brief statement as to our understanding on the second letter we have discussed. That will complete our business, I believe.

Madam President, this has to do with commodity classification. We have had some concern that when people in the business of exporting items come into the Department of Commerce and they get a different classification for a commodity -- in other words, something might be subject to license and they believe it should not be subject to license anymore -- they can come in and get that consideration. That is appropriate. That needs to be done, but it needs to be done in a manner which protects the Government and the country's interest from a national security standpoint.

The executive branch has traditionally dealt with this issue through interagency agreements. We think they need to be updated. The existing agreement is 5 years old and needs to be updated to create an increased role for the Departments of Defense and State.

Both the opponents and supporters of this legislation will send a letter to the administration requesting the issuance of a new Executive order on commodity classification to ensure the participation of the National Security Agency. We believe that with regard to many of these issues, as the administration is trying to staff up and with our discussions with them and among each other, we have realized just how outdated the existing agreement is. We are going to send a letter to them to bring this to their attention further, and suggest they issue an Executive order.

We assume this will be done in an appropriate manner, and we will not have to take additional action. That option, of course, is always there. Pending that, we think this is an appropriate way to proceed.

Madam President, one final note. We have had some discussion in this Chamber concerning the possibility of an amendment that would create a so-called blue ribbon commission to address additional concerns as to how our export policies might be affecting national security. I believe it is fair to say, not having heard from my other colleagues on this issue, that we have not been able to reach agreement with regard to that.

Without a doubt, we will continue to work together among ourselves to try to agree on the composition of such a commission. I think we all agree the concept is a good idea, and that we ought to take a long impassioned look at what we are doing. We will continue to work on that, but for right now I believe we can take that off the table.

Section 211: This provision amends the term "interested party" in Section 211 (foreign availability and mass market status) to ensure its consistency with terms used in the rest of the bill. Sections 205, 302, and 307 all refer to "interested person(s)". The managers' amendment corrects the references in Section 211 by replacing "interested party" with "interested person".

Sections 214 and 701: This provision clarifies the duties of the Office of Technology Evaluation. Section 214 of the bill establishes an Office of Technology Evaluation to analyze information and provide assessments for use in export control policy. The managers' amendment clarifies that when assessing the effect of foreign competition on critical US industrial sectors, the Office is to consider imports of manufactured goods. It also modifies Section 701 (annual report) to ensure that the Commerce Department's annual report to Congress includes a description of such assessments. The managers worked closely with Senator Hollings to include this provision.

Section 311: The next provision modifies Section 311 (crime control instruments). Section 311 preserves authority contained in existing law (Section 6(n) of the Export Administration Act of 1979) to ensure that crime control and detection instruments and equipment may be exported only subject to an export license. The managers' amendment further provides that any item or technology that the Secretary of Commerce determines is a specially designed instrument of torture or is especially susceptible to abuse as an instrument of torture can be exported only pursuant to an individual export license. In addition, the Annual Report of the Bureau of Export Administration must describe the aggregate number of licenses approved during the preceding calendar year for the export of any such items by country and control list number. This provision was included in the Managers Amendment at the request of Senators Leahy and Biden.

Section 401: The next provision makes a technical correction to Section 401 (export license procedures). Section 401 requires Commerce to take four actions -- hold incomplete applications, refer applications to other agencies, confirm commodity classification, and return application -- at the beginning of the license review process. As drafted, however, some of these actions are mutually incompatible (for example, Commerce cannot hold an incomplete application while simultaneously referring the application to another agency). The managers' amendment revises the language to correct this inadvertent incompatibility.

Section 506: This provision amends the term "interested parties" in Section 506 (enforcement) to ensure its consistency with terms used in the rest of the bill. Sections 205, 302, and 307 all refer to "interested person(s)". The managers' amendment corrects the references in Section 506 by replacing "interested parties" with "interested person".

Section 602: This provision further clarifies Section 602 (confidentiality of information). Section 602 provides that information obtained through licenses, classification requests, investigations, treaty, or the foreign availability/mass-market process shall be kept confidential unless its release is in the national interest. It goes on to provide penalties against those who violate this prohibition. The managers' amendment makes three changes: it (1) clarifies the investigations referred to are those carried out by Department of Commerce officials; (2) ensures that penalties on violators are imposed with the agreement of the violators' employing agency; and (3) allows violators to be denied further access to confidential information and to be removed from office.

Section 603: The next provision adds a technical provision relating to the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act of 2000 (TSRA). TSRA established restrictions on sanctions dealing with agricultural commodities, medicine, and medical devices. The managers' amendment adds a new Section 603 that is intended to hold TSRA harmless by (1) ensuring that no authority in this Act may be exercised contrary to TSRA; (2) clarifying the limitations on national security controls; and (3) clarifying the application of TSRA procedures to foreign policy controls. Senators Roberts and Dayton were instrumental in crafting this language, and worked with bill managers to perfect the text.

Section 702: The next provision corrects a drafting error in Section 702 (technical and conforming amendments). Section 702(j) preserves authority contained in existing law (Section 17(c) of the Export Administration Act of 1979) to ensure that standard civil aircraft products remain subject to the EAA. As drafted, Section 702(j) inadvertently departed from current law by breaking the original paragraph into subparagraphs. Because this structure could cause confusion in interpretation, the managers' amendment returns the text to its original structure.

Section 702: This provision addresses a humanitarian issue. U.S. aircraft manufacturers cannot export critical aircraft safety parts to countries subject to U.S. embargo. Without those parts, the planes may crash, with terrible humanitarian implications. A presidential waiver to export such parts is available, but is rarely invoked and takes years. The managers' amendment provides that exports of civil aircraft equipment to comply with flight safety requirements for commercial passenger aircraft may be authorized on a case-by-case basis. Senators Dodd, Bond, Murray, and Roberts expressed particular interest in addressing this problem.

U.S. aircraft manufacturers have sold commercial passenger aircraft internationally since the 1950s. Moreover, some European-made commercial aircraft are made with U.S. components. As a result, U.S. aircraft are used widely around the world.

The safe operation of these aircraft depends on the replacement of worn parts, repair of unsafe components, and receipt of technical bulletins and airworthiness directives. These parts, services, and information are highly specialized, and often are available only from the original manufacturer.

Over the years, several nations that operate U.S.-made aircraft, or European-made aircraft that incorporate U.S. parts, have become subject to U.S. embargo. As a result, U.S.-made aircraft items cannot be exported to those countries. This poses a significant threat to the safe operation of those airplanes. Without replacement parts, repair, and technical information, the planes literally may fall out of the sky, with terrible humanitarian implications for passengers and those on the ground. We all remember with horror the terrible 1992 crash, resulting from a failed part, of an El-Al plane into an Amsterdam apartment complex. All 4 crew and an estimated 70 Amsterdam residents were killed. The risks are real for U.S. citizens traveling to embargoed countries, or making up part of United Nations delegations. Citizens of U.S. allies are at risk. And not least of all, innocent citizens of embargoed countries are particularly vulnerable.

Under current law, the administration has some flexibility to allow flight safety exports to nations such as Sudan and Syria. However, exports to Iran or Iraq require a presidential waiver -- a process that takes years and is rarely invoked. The difficulty of obtaining such a waiver has meant that U.S. manufacturers cannot provide critical flight safety parts or information to those nations.

The managers' amendment addresses this humanitarian issue while retaining the integrity of the embargo. It provides that aircraft equipment exports to comply with safety requirements for commercial passenger aircraft may be authorized on a case-by-case basis. It is tightly circumscribed: it applies only to parts for civil aircraft used for commercial passengers, and it requires a case-by-case analysis.

Madam President, I simply want to make a closing statement on this important bill. I begin by thanking the chairman of the committee, Senator Sarbanes, for his leadership, and Senator Johnson for the work, they have done on the bill. I especially want to thank Senator Enzi for his indispensable leadership on this bill; it is no understatement to say that we would not be here today were it not for Senator Enzi's leadership on this bill for the past two years.

I have had the privilege of serving in the Senate now going into my 18th year, and I have never seen a Senator do the things Senator Enzi has done on this bill -- in terms of being willing to meet the various agencies involved in export administration, sitting for endless hours and watching how the process works, and doing something we seldom do in this line of work: learn how the process works practically. We are often not willing to spend the time or get our hands dirty. The quality of the bill before us is due in very large part to Senator Enzi, and I want to publicly and personally thank him for his leadership. It sets a new standard for what a Senator ought to be in terms of hard work behind the scenes, getting the facts, understanding the mechanism. We like to deal with theory and leave the practical matters up to somebody else. That is not the way Senator Enzi does business.

I thank our two colleagues, Senator Thompson and Senator Kyl. Maybe people listening to this debate wonder why I would thank them, given that we have some fundamental disagreements, but good law is made by basically trying to accommodate people who do not agree with you while maintaining your principles. I think, quite frankly, they have improved the bill.

Counting the two changes that Senator Sarbanes, Senator Enzi and I agreed to this morning, we have made 61 changes in this bill in trying to build a consensus. I believe the product we have produced is a quality product, it will stand the test of time, and it will work.

The points I want to make are: In listening to some of the critics, one may have gotten the idea that somehow this bill lessens our commitment to national security. We have an apparent conflict in America between our desire to produce and sell items that embody high technology, and we want to produce and sell them because the country that develops new technology creates new jobs and creates the best jobs.

So, while we want to be the world leader in that technology, we have a conflicting goal in wanting to prevent would-be adversaries and dangerous people from getting technology that can be used to harm us or to harm our interests. That is what this bill is about.

We have put together an excellent bill. It represents a compromise between two competing national goals. It is legislation at its best. Many times we claim bipartisanship on bills when they really are not totally bipartisan. This bill is about as bipartisan as anything we have ever done on the Banking Committee since I have been in the Senate, and I think it represents good law.

Congress has not reauthorized the Export Administration Act on a permanent basis since 1990, and for close to a decade the export of dual-use goods -- items with both civilian and possible military applications -- have been governed in an ad hoc way by the President using Executive orders under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and without a comprehensive regime in place to monitor exports.

Authorize the President to impose national security controls to restrict items that would contribute to the military potential of countries in a manner detrimental to U.S. national security, directing the Secretary of Commerce, with the concurrence of the national security agencies and departments, to identify items to be included on a National Security Control List. This strengthens the hand of the national security agencies in the export licensing process by giving them for the first time a formal procedure by which to be involved in this process.

Mr. President, I rise today in strong support of S. 149, the Export Administration Act of 2001. From my perspective, consideration of this legislation is long overdue. Congress has extended the Export Administration Act on a temporary basis since 1984, and in doing so has completely ignored the extraordinary changes in technology that have occurred in that timeframe. Current export control policy, formulated during the Cold War several decades ago, no longer fits either the current global context or our specific national security needs. It is time to bring U.S. law into conformity with international reality.

Over the past year I have been involved in two high-level advisory panels that have carefully examined the existing U.S. export control regime. The first was a study group focusing on Enhancing Multilateral Export Controls for U.S. National Security, and was sponsored by the Henry L. Stimson Center and the Center for Strategic for International Studies. The second consisted of two study groups, one on Technology and Security in the 21st Century and one Computer Exports and National Security, sponsored entirely by the Center for Strategic for International Studies. Each of these groups concluded that existing export control policy and procedures are outdated, unsound, ineffective, unrealistic, and counterproductive. Taken as a whole, they impede coordination between the U.S. government agencies responsible for export control policy, they hinder our efforts to cooperate with our most important allies, they ignore the new threats and opportunities in the international system, they expend significant human and financial resources insulating easily available technologies, they limit the ability of our best companies to innovate and compete and, in the final analysis, they harm our military and commercial national security interests.

The first conclusion is that globalization has resulted in what the Defense Science Board has previously called a "leveling" of access to technology and the capacity of the United States to obtain and control technologies critical to its national interest. This concept suggests that access to commercial technology is now universal, and its use for both commercial and military ends is largely unconstrained. Enabling technologies necessary for modern warfare, examples being semiconductors, computer hardware and software, simulation and surveillance devices, advanced telecommunications, and so on, are available to nearly any country that wishes to access them, ally and adversary alike. The result of these changes is an export control regime that is, to quote the Defense Science Board, "for all practical purposes ineffective at manipulating global access to dual-use technology and . . . only marginally more successful in the conventional weapons arena." This is the context within which we debate export control reform today, and these are the changes that the proposed legislation is trying to address.

The second overarching conclusion is that is that we need to put higher fences around much smaller, but more critical, sets of technologies. Because access to advanced technology and technical capabilities have spread so widely and because research and development is now global in nature, it is time that we focus our efforts at export control on limited technologies that directly affect our national security. In particular, we should concentrate on protecting and developing the software and databases that sustain and strengthen our military superiority. The primary objective in the current export control regime is to prevent potential adversaries from obtaining technological components that would allow them to develop weapons systems and manage warfare in a more effective fashion. Unfortunately, this objective is still considered rational, this in spite of the radical changes that have occurred in the international political economic environment. Commercial computers that can be obtained online or through retail outlets can now perform the vast majority of battlefield applications. As a result, a coherent and compelling argument can be made that we need to concentrate on controlling the technologies that will allow advanced components to be integrated into effective systems. This should be one of our primary considerations as we reconsider export control, and this is one of the goals the proposed legislation is trying to achieve.

The final overarching conclusion is that it is time that we begin creating a new international framework that will allow more effective export control between the United States and its allies. Changes in advanced technology and the global environment has undercut or weakened existing agreements, and we must begin creating a foundation upon which new cooperative mechanisms can be established. In the recent past, much of this required change has been blocked by the United States, the primary reason being that its export control system was based on measures, computer MTOPS being the most salient example, that are no longer relevant in the current international environment and are not adhered to by our allies. Regulatory reform in the United States must occur before new international frameworks can be established, and this is one of the goals the proposed legislation is trying to address.

There are those among my colleagues who would argue that even if the international system has changed to this extent, even if globalization has changed the international equation, the United States has a moral obligation to limit access to certain key technologies for a specific group of countries. The example used most frequently on the Senate floor is China, but certainly other countries could be inserted in its place.

Let me state here that I would not disagree that certain countries should be singled out as potential threats to the United States and technology limited to the extent that it is feasible to do so. But the proposed legislation accomplishes this objective. The arguments on the Senate floor that the proposed legislation somehow diminishes our capacity to control sensitive and critical technologies is specious at best. On the contrary, many levels of restrictions remain in place to protect U.S. national security interests. What the proposed legislation does do is provide the U.S. government with the flexibility and focus to address concerns over advanced technology and adapt to changes in the current international environment.

It is time that we change our anachronistic system of export control. This legislation reflects several years of hard work on the part of my colleagues, and I believe it represents a balanced and strategic approach to the problems at hand. The legislation was voted out of the Banking Committee by a 19-1 vote. As the statements on the floor will attest, the legislation has the bi-partisan support of most of the Members of the Senate. President Bush supports it, as does all the relevant officials in his Administration. President Clinton supported it, as did all the relevant officials in his Administration. It is supported by a broad range of organizations, many of which are led by key officials from previous Democratic and Republican Administrations.

However, with that said, I find it disappointing that the legislation has not addressed the important issue of U.S. commercial satellites and space-related component exports. The Defense Authorization Act for FY 1999 moved responsibility for export licensing of these items from the Department of Commerce to the Department of State. By doing so, communications satellite and space-related items were placed on the U.S. Munitions List, effecting a crippling blow to the U.S. aerospace industry. It makes timely deliveries to overseas customers and our allies nearly impossible, and excludes commercial satellite sales from competitive rate financing offered by the Export-Import Bank. While our U.S. companies may find themselves hard-pressed to find institutions to provide reasonable financing for foreign customers, their competitors may not. Last year, the Aerospace Industries Association claimed satellite exports had fallen over 40 percent in the period from late 1999 to early 2000, and the forecast was for the trend to get continually worse. I certainly hope this issue is addressed in the upcoming conference.

Mr. President, I want to express my support for S. 149, the Export Administration Act of 2001. I want to commend Senators Sarbanes, Gramm, Johnson, and Enzi for crafting a balanced, bipartisan bill that brings long-overdue clarity to the regulation of dual-use exports. This bill removes several unnecessary restrictions on exports that only hinder international trade, puts in place a system to track and license those technologies that have the potential to impact national security, and establishes realistic penalties and sanctions for violations of these regulations.

I am pleased that the managers of the bill have accepted the amendment that Senator Biden and I proposed that will place controls on the export of items that are used to perpetrate acts of torture. The "torture trade" is a critical problem that has received too little attention from policymakers, the public, and the press. Too often, companies have exported items, apparently designed for security or crime control purposes, that are actually used to torture people by some of the most inhumane methods imaginable. Amnesty International reports that, over the past decade, more than 80 U.S. companies have been involved in the manufacture, marketing, and export of these types of items, like thumbscrews and electro-shock stun belts, which have been used to commit human rights abuses around the world.

The Leahy-Biden amendment is a modest step to improve the transparency, oversight, and accountability associated with the trade in these items. It builds on existing regulations and requires a license, subject to the approval of the Secretary of Commerce and the concurrence of the Secretary of State, before such items can be exported. It also contains an annual reporting requirement to disclose the aggregate number of licenses to export these items that were granted during the previous year.

This amendment is designed to make sure that certain goods and technologies are not used to commit acts of torture and other human rights abuses. While our amendment moves us in the right direction, I recognize that more can and should be done. Representatives Hyde and Lantos have included an amendment in their version of the bill which contains additional protections that could be very helpful in curtailing the torture trade. I strongly urge the conferees to take a serious look at the Hyde-Lantos amendment when determining the final outcome of the Export Administration Act.

As a number of our colleagues have said during this debate, the purpose of the EAA is not to promote U.S. exports. The purpose of the EAA is to protect the national security of the United States, which may mean barring certain types of sensitive technology from being exported. I fear that this bill tips the scale dangerously in favor of expanded commerce at the expense of our national security.

I disagree with the argument put forth by some during this debate that the foreign availability and mass market provisions included in this bill are key to ensuring that American companies can compete in the foreign market. Just because other countries choose to make a dual- use product available to international buyers does not mean the United States should as well. We should do everything we can to stem the flow of potentially dangerous dual-use technology around the world. We should not use the questionable export decisions of other countries to justify selling products that could be used to harm our country.

There is nothing wrong with having a deliberative process for considering applications to export dual-use technologies. I disagree with the contention that so many in the affected industries have advanced -- that the licensing process puts them at a disadvantage because they have to wait for the licensing process to be completed before they can export the technology. This is not a race. And the object of the EAA is not to unduly delay the approval of export licenses. We should consider carefully each license application. I fear that this bill, and in particular its provisions regarding mass market and foreign availability determinations and the export of high performance computers, will have the practical effect of rendering our export control process meaningless.

Supporters of this bill argue that American businesses need the relaxed controls included in this bill in order to compete in the international marketplace. That is not the case. The vast majority of export license applications submitted to the Department of Commerce are approved. The purpose is to ensure that sensitive technology does not fall into the wrong hands.

Other countries look to the United States for guidance on such issues as export controls and non-proliferation efforts. If we relax controls on dual-use items because other countries are selling them, we are following, not leading. Just last week, the United States imposed sanctions on a Chinese company that transferred missile technology to Pakistan. The administration reportedly has told the Chinese Government that one of the conditions to having these sanctions lifted is for the Chinese to develop a system of export controls to regulate the transfer of sensitive technology. It is curious that the Senate is debating relaxing U.S. control of dual-use technology -- a move the administration supports -- at the same time the administration is calling on the Chinese Government to implement export controls.

The fact is that there is a great deal of pressure from the super computer industry to pass this legislation. I don't say that to impugn the motives of any Member who supports this bill, because we are having an honest debate here about different points of view. But I do think it's important for the American people to understand who some of the strong supporters of this legislation are, so I would like to take a moment to Call the Bankroll on this issue.

The computer industry has a huge stake in the passage of EAA. They want a relaxation of the export controls on supercomputers, and they are lobbying hard for their cause. And, as is usually the case, lobbying means donating big money, and that means donating soft money to the party committees. In this case, the computer industry gave $20.5 million in soft money during the 2000 election cycle. The industry ranked seventh in overall donations in the last cycle, a meteoric rise for an industry that ranked 55th in donations a decade earlier. This is clearly an industry that has learned how to play the soft money game, and play it well.

Unisys Corporation and its executives gave more than $142,000 in soft money in the 2000 election cycle; Sun Microsystems gave more than $24,000 in soft money during the last cycle; and United Technologies and its subsidiaries gave a whopping $338,300 in soft money in the 2000 election cycle.

As I said, this is in no way a comprehensive list, since the industry gave more than $20 million in soft money during the last cycle. But I point out these donations now because they are relevant to this debate -- and relevant to the way many Americans view this debate, and so many others like it here on the Senate floor.

When wealthy interests are allowed to give an unlimited amount of money to a political party, it makes the American people question us and the work we do. And I can think of few issues where the public might be more disturbed by the potential influence of soft money than an issue like this one, where national and international security are at stake. Whether or not soft money clouds our own judgment, it clouds the public's judgement of each and every one of us.

Mr. President, it has been 16 years since the United States Congress last enacted re-authorizing legislation governing our controls on the export of dual-use technology, those items suited for both civilian and military uses. For much of the past 7 years, the President has been forced to exercise emergency powers to maintain dual-use export controls following the expiration of the 1979 Export Administration Act. This temporary exercise of authority has limited the penalties the Federal Government can enforce on export control violators and has opened up existing export controls to a series of legal challenges.

We owe this to U.S. companies, which deserve a rational and predictable framework of export controls. We owe this to our friends and allies, who look to the U.S. export control system as a model in devising their own systems. And, most importantly, we owe this to our national security, we cannot rely forever on an ad hoc system that metes out insufficient penalties and is based on shaky legal ground.

Export controls exist, first and foremost, for reasons of national security. The United States must not export items when the item or the end-user may contribute to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, strengthen the military capabilities of those who would oppose us, or otherwise endanger U.S. national security. A comprehensive export control system is just as important to preserving America's freedom and security as a strong military.

I think all of us can agree that national security considerations must always come first in devising export controls. We can all agree that such controls should not be so arbitrary as to stifle legitimate trade. We may differ, however, on where we draw the line in balancing these two opposing considerations.

Export controls can also serve another purpose. They can help reaffirm America's global leadership on human rights. Let me take this opportunity to commend Senators Sarbanes and Enzi for accepting an amendment proposed by Senator Leahy and me in this regard. The managers' amendment to S. 149 will tighten the controls on the export of items expressly designed for torture or especially susceptible to use in torture.

We are talking about items such as stun guns and shock batons, leg cuffs and restraint chairs. Yes, some of these items can have legitimate law enforcement uses and are in fact employed in a manner that does not abuse human rights. That is why this amendment would continue to allow their export, but make them subject to the licensing process and require the specific concurrence of the State Department as well as the approval of the Commerce Department.

The items covered by this amendment are devices that governments around the world too often use in suppressing political dissidents and ethnic opposition. This amendment requires the U.S. government to license each and every export of such items. It will help ensure that the United States does not indirectly contribute to the torture of individuals by engaging in the unlicensed trade of items used for torture. It is my hope that the Commerce and State Departments, working together, will see to it that licensed exports of these items are permitted only to those countries whose governments carry unblemished human rights records.

During this debate, a group of Senators, led by my good friends Senator Thompson and Senator Kyl, has led an intense effort against S. 149. They argue that this bill fundamentally favors commercial equities over our national security interests. They are skeptical that the Commerce Department, which is responsible for cultivating U.S. business interests around the world, can play an impartial role in weighing national security considerations.

Truth be told, I have shared some of their concerns. That's why I am pleased that the floor managers have reached a compromise with Senators Thompson and Kyl. This compromise includes amendments to S. 149 to: 1. enhance the discretionary authority of the Commerce Department to deny export licenses to another country when it is blocking legitimate post- shipment verifications of sensitive exports and 2. tighten the definition of foreign availability determinations which can exempt items from export controls. These changes to S. 149 approved today offer real improvements to this bill.

I plan to vote for S. 149. On the whole, this bill takes the right steps to bring our export controls for dual-use technologies into the 21st century. Is it a perfect bill? No. The House International Relations Committee, in marking up this bill last month, approved dozens of amendments, on a bipartisan basis. I would hope, therefore, to see further improvement of this bill in conference.

Mr. President, I rise today to address an issue that is critical to the national security of our Nation: the adequate control of the export of sensitive technologies. I have been active in this debate for the past 2 years, together with Senators Helms, Shelby, McCain, Thompson, and Kyl. We have worked with our colleagues on the Banking Committee, particularly Senators Gramm, Sarbanes, and Enzi, to craft a bill that protects our Nation's security, while at the same time allowing for appropriate commercial activity.

In April, I reluctantly objected to the motion to proceed to S.149, the Export Administration Act. At that time, I thought it was premature for the Senate to consider this bill until we had received detailed information from the Administration on this issue. I believe the Senate is now in a position to act on this important legislation.

I have tried for the past 2 years to work in a conscientious way with all parties to resolve the differences over this legislation. These differences have cut to the very essence of how the United States plans to protect its national security in an era of rapid globalization and proliferation of technology.

My goal in this debate has been to strike the proper balance between national security and commercial interests. As we all know, the high tech industry in the United States is currently second to none. We must ensure our domestic industry remains competitive without limiting access to new markets. Considering the rate at which technology becomes obsolete, being the first to deliver a product to a market is crucial. And while we cannot completely abandon national security concerns in favor of industry, we must not unnecessarily hinder the ability of our high tech companies to compete on the world stage. That is what I believe we have accomplished with this bill.

This is a complicated issue that cuts across the jurisdiction of six Senate Committees. Five Committee Chairmen with responsibility for national security matters in the U.S. Senate have continuously worked to improve this bill -- myself as chairman of the Armed Services Committee, Senator Shelby of the Intelligence Committee, Senator Thompson of the Governmental Affairs Committee, Senator Helms of the Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator McCain of the Commerce Committee. In addition, Senator Kyl has been a leading participant in our discussions with the Banking Committee, the committee of primary jurisdiction.

The higher penalties and increased enforcement authority, the authority to require enhanced controls on items that need to be controlled for national security reasons, the requirement for the Department of Commerce to notify the Department of Defense of all commodity classifications are examples of progress made on the national security front.

I have great respect for the tireless efforts and dedication of my distinguished Banking committee colleagues, Senator Gramm and Senator Enzi, in creating the EAA of 2001. I thank them for meeting with me and others several times throughout the past two years to listen to our concerns with balancing national security matters with economic interests. I hope these concerns will remain a priority for all of us.

In this year's version of the EAA, the Banking Committee has included additional national security protections at the urging of the administration. As the debate on these issues has shown, there were concerns about the last administration's record in protecting some of our vital technology. A new administration is able to look at old problems with a fresh approach. It is in that context that the administration reviewed this bill at the request of myself, Senators McCain, Shelby, Thompson, Helms and Kyl. The National Security Advisor and three cabinet Secretaries were intimately involved in this review. As a result, the administration proposed a series of legislative changes that the Banking Committee has included in the bill that is before us.

Once these changes were made and the administration was actively engaged on the issue, the question then became a technical matter of how the administration would implement the statute. When the Senators expressing concerns regarding this bill were briefed on the results of the administration's review, we were informed that an interagency agreement had been achieved on how the administration would enhance national security controls during the course of implementing the EAA. Under the administration's proposal, we were informed that some national security protection that we had sought in the past would be included in the executive order that implements S. 149. Thus began a dialogue with the administration to come up with a better understanding of how this bill would be implemented.

My past concerns with earlier versions of EAA were based on concerns expressed by the Department of Defense. Last year, DOD provided the Senate Armed Services Committee with specific legislative changes that were necessary in their judgement to fix last year's EAA bill. This included addressing issues related to a national security carve-out or enhanced controls, commodity classifications, the enhanced proliferation control initiative, and deemed exports.

The Bush administration shares the concerns of the previous administration but has chosen to pursue some needed changes administratively. In this regard, I ask unanimous consent that a copy of a letter I received from Secretary of Commerce Evans be made a part of the legislative record. This letter provides some insight into the administration's interpretation of the bill language and commits the administration to implementing, for example, a "disciplined and transparent process for escalating and deciding disputes" on commodity classifications.

I am satisfied with the response that the administration has given me that they can work within the confines of this statute to protect national security. I trust that this administration will be able to do so. The Congress will, however, need to provide diligent oversight to ensure that this administration will conform to the high national security standards that they have set for themselves. When the EAA comes up for renewal in three years time, we may have to be more stringent in putting explicit national security protections in statute rather than leaving it to the discretion of the administration.

It is time for the Congress to act on this bill. There is a need to reauthorize the EAA. The national security protections such as the national security carve out, increased penalties for export control violations, and greater visibility for the DOD over commodity classifications are positive steps. We need to lock in these improvements and work to ensure that nonproliferation concerns are protected and strengthened and that vital technology is protected. And we need to allow our domestic industry to compete in the world market without unnecessary and outmoded restrictions.

Neither I nor Senators Thompson, Kyl, Helms or McCain desire to impede American business entities in their pursuit of new markets. I for one tend to agree with President Calvin Coolidge, who said that, "The chief business of the American people is business." Every Senator here today is an advocate for enhanced trade and for helping U.S. industry to export its goods and services. Exports bring prosperity to this Nation's companies and work to its citizens. If my advocacy for the U.S. technology industry were the sole basis upon which my decision on this legislation was to be based, I could easily change my past position and support passage of the Export Administration Act, or EAA as it is known. However, the other basis upon which the EAA should be measured is its effect upon the national security of the United States.

The pending bill addresses the control of "dual use" technology, that is, technology that has both commercial and military applications. Most commonly, our current export controls entail a licensing process for the export of most dual use technologies. Rather than prohibit exports outright, we generally ensure that we can determine which countries are receiving technology and keep track of anomalies in exporting so that we can measure whether technology is being put to military use. The EAA also regulates which countries will be permitted to import U.S. dual-use technologies. Generally, U.S. companies are not permitted to export dual use products to countries like Iran and Iraq.

This bill is an attempt to rewrite our export control laws to make them more rational. I too believe that this nation needs new export laws to meet today's trade realities. However, this effort must not open the floodgates for our dual use technology to be exported, without the ability for the U.S. Government to follow where that technology goes and its ultimate application.

For an export control regime to function properly, it must provide for a balancing of the commercial benefits involved -- which are generally obvious, easily-quantified, concentrated, and immediate -- with the national security concerns, which are typically shrouded in secrecy, difficult to quantify, diffuse, and long-term in nature. In this equation, national security can easily get the short end of the stick.

Not everything is shrouded in secrecy. In accordance with Section 721 of the 1997 Intelligence Authorization Act, twice a year the Director of Central Intelligence submits a report on trends in the proliferation of weapons technologies. Part of the report is unclassified. The report identifies key suppliers of dual use missile, nuclear, and conventional arms technologies, as well as dual-use biotechnology and chemical technology. Nations such as China and Russia are identified as key suppliers. They export their technology to the likes of Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, Sudan, Pakistan and India. The report received last winter detailed a continuing and significant problem.

With respect to India, "India continues to rely on foreign assistance for key missile and dual-use technologies where it still lacks engineering or production expertise in ballistic missile development." The report goes on to cite Russia and Western Europe as the primary conduits of India's missile related technology.

As stated in the Report, Pakistan received significant assistance from Communist China for its ballistic missile program in the early part of last year. As recently as this past weekend, the administration was forced to impose sanctions on the China Metallurgical Equipment Corporation for selling missile technology to Pakistan. The corporate entity in Pakistan which received the technology was also sanctioned. I know this has been and continues to be an issue of great concern to Senator Thompson. I commend him for his efforts to publicize Communist China's blatant disregard for its pledge not to support foreign nuclear missile programs.

The report did contain one note of optimism, which I believe is also directly applicable to today's debate. Nations such as Libya and Iran continued to attempt to acquire needed materials for weapons of mass destruction in Western Europe. They had some success in the first half of 2000, but the CIA report states that, "Increasingly rigorous and effective export controls and cooperation among supplier countries have led the other foreign WMD programs to look elsewhere for many controlled dual-use goods." The point is, that while we cannot stop all proliferation, a rigorous export control regime can be effective in diffusing the spread of potentially threatening dual-use technology.

Mr. President, the problem is real. I believe it is a significant statement when the Chairmen and now Ranking Members of the Senate Armed Services Committee, the Foreign Relations Committee, the Intelligence Committee, the Committee on Governmental Affairs and the Subcommittee on Technology, Terrorism and Government Information, have serious issues with the protections this legislation provides our national security. I am deeply disappointed that the new administration was not able to support reasonable amendments which would address the national security equities which we have highlighted. I am concerned that the interests of the high tech business community have replaced reasonable consideration of our dual use export control regime.

Technologies which are exported today can and will have to be dealt with by this Nation's national security apparatus. Consequently, I urge my colleagues to support the amendments of Senators Thompson, Kyl, Helms, and others, which will strengthen S. 149 with respect to national security. They are only a handful of the changes which should be made to this bill but they will serve to give the Defense Department and the State Department a more level playing field in the export control process from which to protect national security.

There is a proper balance between promoting business and preserving the national security. This bill does not strike that balance. As a conferee, I am hopeful that in conference, I can work with the members of the House, especially Chairman Hyde and continue these efforts to tilt the balance in favor of national security.
