LIVESTOCK AND AGRICULTURE PRODUCERS.

It is the sense of the Senate that the Senate develop a long-term
drought plan that effectively recognizes the recurring nature of
drought cycles and adequately supports emergency and disaster
assistance to livestock and agricultural producers hurt by drought and
that the Senate establish an agricultural reserve to fund these
activities.

SEC. 604. SOCIAL SECURITY RESTRUCTURING.

It is the sense of the Senate that--
(1) the President, the Congress and the American people
(including seniors, workers, women, minorities, and disabled
persons) should work together at the earliest opportunity to enact
legislation to achieve a solvent and permanently sustainable Social
Security system; and
(2) Social Security reform must--
(A) protect current and near retirees from any changes to
Social Security benefits;
(B) reduce the pressure on future taxpayers and on other
budgetary priorities;
(C) provide benefit levels that adequately reflect
individual contributions to the Social Security System; and
(D) preserve and strengthen the safety net for vulnerable
populations, including the disabled and survivors.

SEC. 605. SENSE OF THE SENATE CONCERNING STATE FISCAL RELIEF.

It is the Sense of the Senate that the functional totals in this
resolution assume that any legislation enacted to provide economic
growth for the United States should include not less than
$30,000,000,000 for State fiscal relief over the next 18 months (of
which at least half should be provided through a temporary increase in
the Federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP)).

SEC. 606. FEDERAL AGENCY REVIEW COMMISSION.

It is the sense of the Senate that a commission should be
established to review Federal domestic agencies, and programs within
such agencies, with the express purpose of providing Congress with
recommendations, and legislation to implement those recommendations, to
realign or eliminate government agencies and programs that are
duplicative, wasteful, inefficient, outdated, or irrelevant, or have
failed to accomplish their intended purpose.

SEC. 607. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING HIGHWAY SPENDING.

(a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following findings:

if such legislation changes highway user fees to pay for such increased
spending.

program to spend $30,000,000 a year on research and treatment on
diabetes in the Native American community. This amount was increased to
$100,000,000 a year in 2000 and further increased to $150,000,000 a

focuses on prevention and treatment for a major disease in the Native
American community.

SEC. 612. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON PROVIDING TAX AND OTHER INCENTIVES TO
REVITALIZE RURAL AMERICA.

help rural communities attract individuals to live and work and start
and grow a business in those communities.

years 2004 through 2007.

PROGRAMS.
