SEC. ____. SENSE OF THE SENATE CONCERNING PROGRAMS OF THE
CORPS OF ENGINEERS.

(a) Findings.--The Senate finds that--
(1) the Corps of Engineers provides quality, responsive
engineering services to the United States, including
planning, designing, building, and operating invaluable water
resources and civil works projects;
(2) the ports of the United States are a vital component of
the economy of the United States, playing a critical role in
international trade and commerce and in maintaining the
energy supply of the United States;
(3) interruption of port operations would have a
devastating effect on the United States;
(4) the navigation program of the Corps enables
2,400,000,000 tons of commerce to move on navigable
waterways;
(5) the Department of Transportation estimates that those
cargo movements have created jobs for 13,000,000 people;
(6) flood damage reduction structures provided and
maintained by the Corps save taxpayers $21,000,000,000 in
damages every year, in addition to numerous human lives;
(7) the Corps designs and manages the construction of
military facilities for the Army and Air Force while
providing support to the Department of Defense and other
Federal agencies;
(8) the Civil Works program of the Corps adds significant
value to the economy of the United States;
(9) through contracting methods, the civil works program
employs thousands of private sector contract employees, as
well as Federal employees, in all aspects of construction,
science, engineering, architecture, management, planning,
design, operations, and maintenance; and
(10) the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that
$1,000,000,000 expended for the Civil Works program generates
approximately 40,000 jobs in support of construction
operation and maintenance activities in the United States.
(b) Budgetary Assumptions.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) to perform vital functions described in subsection (a),
the Corps of Engineers requires additional funding in order
to sustain aging infrastructure of, and address the growing
demand for water supply in, the United States; and
(2) the budgetary totals in this resolution assume that the
level of funding provided for programs of the Corps described
in subsection (a) will not be reduced below current baseline
spending levels established for the programs.

SEC. ____ . SENSE OF THE SENATE ON CORPORATE TAX HAVEN
LOOPHOLES.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds that companies are taking
advantage of loopholes in the United States tax code to
direct taxable income to tax haven jurisdictions, some of
which have excessive bank secrecy laws and a poor record of
cooperation with United States civil and criminal tax
enforcement.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that the Senate should act to stop companies from avoiding
paying their fair share of United States taxes by--
(1) addressing the problem of corporations that have
renounced their United States citizenship (``inverted'') by
relocating their headquarters to tax haven jurisdictions
while maintaining their primary offices and production or
service facilities in the United States; and
(2) addressing the problem of Bermuda-based insurance
companies that are using reinsurance agreements with their
subsidiaries to direct property and casualty insurance
premiums out of the United States into Bermuda to reduce
their United States taxes in a way that places United States
property and casualty insurance companies at a competitive
disadvantage.

SEC. ____ . FUNDING FOR AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
(1) Studies show that organized extracurricular activities,
such as after-school programs, reduce crime, drug use, and
teenage pregnancy.
(2) According to the FBI, youth are most at risk for
committing violent acts and being victims of violent crimes
between 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.--after school is out and
before parents arrive home.
(3) There remains a great need for after-school programs.
The Census Bureau reported that at least 8 to 15 million
children have no place to go after school is out.
(3) There remains a great need for after-school programs.
The Census Bureau reported that at least 8 to 15 million
children have no place to go after school is out.
(4) Current funding for after-school programs provide
almost 1.4 million children across the country a safe and
enriching place to go afterschool instead of being home
alone.
(5) The Administration's proposed FY 04 budget has
recommended funding after school programs at $600,000,000.
This represents a 40-percent cut in program funding and will
result in 570,000 fewer children having access to afterschool
programs.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that the levels in this resolution assume funding for 21st
Century Community Learning Centers is at least enough to
ensure the number of children participating in afterschool
programs does not.

SEC. ____. FUNDING FOR IMPACT AID.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds as follows:
(1) Impact Aid assists 1,275 school districts, serving
15,000,000 children. Of those children 385,171 are military
dependent children.
(2) At a time when many States have initiated steep cuts in
education funding, Impact Aid helps in easing the financial
burden on school districts with large military populations.
(3) At a time when many military parents have been deployed
overseas, schools with large military populations are
reporting many students experiencing difficulty adjusting to
their parents being absent or physically threatened. As a
result, school officials report increased behavioral
problems, academic problems, and an increased need for
school-based counseling.
(4) Increased funding for Impact Aid will ensure that
federally impacted schools will continue to serve some of
these children's basic educational needs, as well as special
needs, such as counseling for children with a parent overseas
on active duty.
(5) Despite the Administration's proposed $173,000,000 cut
in Impact Aid funding both the Senate and House of
Representatives Committees on the Budget rejected this cut.
Furthermore, the budget resolution of the House of
Representatives assumes an increase in Impact Aid funding to
$1,238,226,000.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that the levels in this resolution assume that Impact Aid
funding is funded at $1,238,226,000.

designing, building, and operating invaluable water resources
and civil works projects;
(2) the ports of the United States are a vital component of

international trade and commerce and in maintaining the
energy supply of the United States;

devastating effect on the United States;
(4) the navigation program of the Corps enables

waterways;

cargo movements have created jobs for 13,000,000 people;

maintained by the Corps save taxpayers $21,000,000,000 in

science, engineering, architecture, management, planning,
design, operations, and maintenance; and
(10) the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that
$1,000,000,000 expended for the Civil Works program generates
approximately 40,000 jobs in support of construction
operation and maintenance activities in the United States.
(b) Budgetary Assumptions.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) to perform vital functions described in subsection (a),
the Corps of Engineers requires additional funding; and
(2) the budgetary totals in this resolution assume that the
level of funding provided for programs of the Corps described
in subsection (a) will not be reduced below current baseline
spending levels established for the programs.

SEC. 1. FINDINGS--THE SENATE FINDS THAT:

Twenty-eight years ago, the federal government promised to
pay for 40 percent of the additional cost of special
education. Presently, the federal share is only 17.6 percent.
The nation's school districts cannot afford such a large
unfunded mandate. Thus, it is imperative that Congress
increase IDEA funding to the long-promised 40 percent share.
