Congress and Police Reform: Current Law and Recent Proposals [Updated June 24, 2020]
From the Document: "In May and June 2020, protests erupted nationwide after the publication of video footage of a Minneapolis police officer pressing his knee into the neck of George Floyd, leading to his death. That incident and its aftermath have sparked heightened interest in Congress's ability to implement reforms of state and local law enforcement. [...] This Sidebar provides an overview of existing federal authorities intended to prevent and redress constitutional violations by state and local public safety officials. It then presents some recent proposals that would change federal regulation of state and local law enforcement. The Sidebar concludes with a list of additional CRS [Congressional Research Service] resources related to law enforcement reform."

Navy Ship Names: Background for Congress [Updated June 24, 2020]
From the Summary: "Names for Navy ships traditionally have been chosen and announced by the Secretary of the Navy, under the direction of the President and in accordance with rules prescribed by Congress. Rules for giving certain types of names to certain types of Navy ships have evolved over time. There have been exceptions to the Navy's ship-naming rules, particularly for the purpose of naming a ship for a person when the rule for that type of ship would have called for it to be named for something else. Some observers have perceived a breakdown in, or corruption of, the rules for naming Navy ships. On July 13, 2012, the Navy submitted to Congress a 73-page report on the Navy's policies and practices for naming ships."

COVID-19-Related Suspension of Immigrant Entry [Updated June 24, 2020]
From the Document: "On June 22, President Trump issued a proclamation that, among other provisions, extends Proclamation 10014 issued April 22 suspending the entry into the United States of certain aliens (foreign nationals) who are seeking lawful permanent resident (LPR) status (i.e., immigrants). Both proclamations justify the suspension as protecting American workers from foreign labor market competition during a time of high domestic unemployment and reduced demand for workers caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Both proclamations rely on two immigration-related legal authorities. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), §212(f) (8 U.S.C. §1182(f)), the President may suspend immigration when it would harm U.S. interests. Under INA §215(a) (8 U.S.C. §1185(a)) the President may prescribe limitations and exceptions on who may enter or depart the country."

Regulating Federal Law Enforcement: Considerations for Congress [June 24, 2020]
From the Document: "In the wake of unrest arising from the May 2020 death of George Floyd, broader questions have arisen regarding Congress's authority to regulate law enforcement officers. While federalism principles limit the extent to which Congress may pass laws directly affecting state and local police officers, Congress has broader authority to regulate 'federal' law enforcement officers and agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), or the Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This Sidebar explores the existing criminal, administrative, and civil remedies that impose liability on federal law enforcement officials for claims of excessive use of force, including those brought under the 'Bivens' doctrine and the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA). It then concludes by discussing considerations for Congress regarding further regulation of federal law enforcement officials"

Potential FEMA Emergency Sheltering Options During the COVID-19 Pandemic [June 24, 2020]
From the Document: "Some hazards (e.g., hurricanes, wildfires) may result in evacuations and displacement of survivors. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), state, local, tribal, and territorial governments (SLTTs) are responsible for coordinating emergency sheltering support after a declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act; 42 U.S.C. §§5121 et seq.). The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic may complicate efforts to provide sheltering in typical congregate settings. This Insight discusses potential emergency sheltering models previously used by FEMA and challenges posed by COVID-19, as well as policy considerations."

Grant Funding for Freight Infrastructure: House and Senate Proposals [June 23, 2020]
From the Document: "The Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act of 2015 (FAST Act, P.L. 114-94) created two grant programs to facilitate freight movement, especially multimodal freight using some combination of trucks, trains, and/or ships. The National Highway Freight Program (NHFP, 23 U.S.C. §167) distributes funding to states according to a mathematical formula and can be used for projects located on a predefined highway network with some flexibility for multimodal infrastructure. The Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects Program (23 U.S.C. §117) is a competitive discretionary program that can be used for a wider variety of projects that may outstrip an individual state's financing capacity. Committees in each chamber have advanced legislation reauthorizing these programs with modifications. The House and Senate proposals for the NHFP have relatively few differences. In contrast, the proposals for the Section 117 program differ more dramatically. Broadly speaking, the Senate bill would retain the existing program with slightly increased funding while adding new eligibilities and set-asides, while the House bill would replace it with an entirely new program and nearly twice the funding."

Department of Energy Loan Programs: Title XVII Innovative Technology Loan Guarantees [June 23, 2020]
From the Document: "The Department of Energy's (DOE's) Loan Programs Office (LPO) manages the Title XVII Innovative Technology Loan Guarantee Program, the focus of this Insight, and the Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program (TELGP). Table 1 provides a high-level comparison of these programs. LPO also manages the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) direct loan program. Established by the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT05 Title XVII, P.L. 109-58), as amended in 2009 (Sec 406, P.L. 111-5), the Title XVII program has supported projects under two separate loan guarantee authorities with different characteristics (see Table 1). 1. 'Section 1703' authority is currently active and to date has committed funds to one project, and, 2. 'Section 1705' authority expired in September 2011 and committed funds to 28 projects."

Morocco: Background and U.S. Relations [Updated June 23, 2020]
From the Introduction: "Successive U.S. Administrations have viewed Morocco as an important regional partner on security, trade, and development. Historically warm ties expanded after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, when President George W. Bush sought the cooperation of Arab governments in countering terrorism. His Administration designated Morocco a Major Non-NATO Ally in 2004 and concluded a bilateral Free Trade Agreement the same year, which Congress authorized under P.L. 108-302. The United States has continued to build strong relations with the kingdom under President Obama and President Trump, notwithstanding occasional friction over the issue of Western Sahara, a disputed territory that Morocco claims and largely administers. High-level meetings regularly occur, including via a U.S.-Morocco Bilateral Strategic Dialogue (see 'U.S. Relations')."

U.S.-China Strategic Competition in South and East China Seas: Background and Issues for Congress [Updated June 23, 2020]
From the Introduction: "This report provides background information and issues for Congress regarding U.S.-China strategic competition in the South China Sea (SCS) and East China Sea (ECS). In an international security environment described as one of renewed great power competition, the South China Sea (SCS) has emerged as an arena of U.S.-China strategic competition. U.S.-China strategic competition in the SCS forms an element of the Trump Administration's more confrontational overall approach toward China, and of the Administration's efforts for promoting its construct for the Indo-Pacific region, called the Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP)."

Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA): Overview of the Agency and Major Programs [June 23, 2020]
From the Background and Role: "The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is the federal agency primarily responsible for supporting community-based mental health and substance abuse treatment and prevention services. Located within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), SAMHSA provides federal funding for these services by administering two large formula-based block grant programs(one for substance abuse prevention and treatment services, the other for mental health services) and other formula and discretionary grants to local communities, states, and private entities. SAMHSA does not directly deliver treatment services. Rather, it supports state and local efforts in providing mental health and substance abuse (collectively known as behavioral health) services, primarily through funding and technical assistance."

'No-Knock' Warrants and Other Law Enforcement Identification Considerations [June 23, 2020]
From the Document: "In the wake of protests over the death of George Floyd while in police custody, some Members of Congress have expressed interest in passing legislation that would alter the policing practices of federal, state, and local law enforcement officers. One set of practices addressed in recently introduced reform legislation concerns law enforcement identification. The issue has arisen in at least two recent contexts. First, reports of federal law enforcement officers responding to protest activity without displaying badges or other identifying information have prompted questions about whether police may forego such identification when acting in an official capacity in public. Second, questions have arisen as to when officers are required to identify themselves before entering a home when executing a search warrant. An issue of particular focus in this context has been so-called 'no-knock' warrants--that is, warrants that permit law enforcement officers to enter a home without the need to identify their authority and purpose beforehand. In one case that has received renewed attention, a Louisville woman named Breonna Taylor was shot and killed in her home by police during execution of such a warrant. Given congressional interest and legislation that has recently been introduced on both fronts, this Legal Sidebar provides an overview of law enforcement identification issues in the context of (1) public identification and (2) identification prior to execution of a warrant. This Sidebar additionally considers how several bills in the 116th Congress could alter practices on both fronts."

Capital Markets, COVID-19, and Federal Government Emergency Facilities [June 22, 2020]
From the Document: "The spread of COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] induced heavy capital markets selloffs and rebounds in 2020. The crisis induced stress conditions have been broadly felt in all corners of capital markets--stocks, bonds, investment funds, and other segments have all experienced heightened volatility. In response, the Federal Reserve (Fed), sometimes with support from the Treasury Department, has established several emergency facilities to provide support for key capital markets segments (Table 1). As of the publication of this Insight, some markets affected by the announced emergency support appear to have rebounded to a certain extent."

Debates Over Currency Manipulation [Updated June 22, 2020]
From the Overview: "Some Members of Congress and policy experts argue that U.S. companies and jobs have been adversely affected by the exchange rate policies adopted by other countries. They allege that these countries use policies to 'manipulate' the value of their currency in order to gain an unfair trade advantage against other countries, including the United States. Other analysts are more skeptical about currency manipulation being a significant problem. They raise questions about whether government policies have long-term effects on exchange rates, whether it is possible to differentiate between 'manipulation' and legitimate central bank activities, and the net effect of currency manipulation on the U.S. economy."

Business Use of Tax and Other Provisions in the CARES Act and Other COVID-19 Legislation: Evidence from Surveys [June 22, 2020]
From the Document: "The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act; P.L. 116-136) provided a range of benefits to businesses and their employees. [...] Three of the act's major programs are mutually exclusive (overall, or at least with respect to a given employee) and require employers to decide about whether to retain workers and how to pay them. [1] The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) for small businesses allowed low-interest loans that could be forgiven if employees were retained. [2] Expanded unemployment insurance (UI) benefits helped workers laid off or furloughed (as well as the small number of employees using work sharing under short-time compensation [STC]). [3] The employee retention tax credit (ERTC) provided a credit for 50% of wages up to a ceiling for retained workers."

Women in the Middle East and North Africa: Issues for Congress [June 19, 2020]
From the Summary: "The status of women in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) has garnered widespread interest among many Members of Congress. Many experts have found that women in this region fare worse than those in other parts of the world on a range of social, economic, legal and political measures. Some attribute this underperformance to gender roles and perspectives (including discriminatory laws and beliefs), and challenges facing the region overall (such as a preponderance of undemocratic governments, poor economic growth, civil wars, and mass displacement, which often disproportionately affect women)."

Comparing Police Reform Bills: The Justice in Policing Act and the JUSTICE Act [June 19, 2020]
From the Document: "On May 25, 2020, George Floyd died in the custody of the Minneapolis police after an officer pressed his knee into Floyd's neck while restraining him. That incident, others like it, and subsequent nationwide protests have sparked heightened interest in the federal government's ability to prevent and remedy police misconduct, especially the use of excessive force against people of color. The events of May and June 2020 have prompted action by the Executive Branch and legislative proposals in both houses of Congress. On June 16, 2020, President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order on Safe Policing for Safe Communities. On June 8, 2020, Members of the House of Representatives, led by the Congressional Black Caucus, introduced the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2020 (Justice in Policing Act), and on June 17, 2020, Senate Republicans unveiled the Just and Unifying Solutions To Invigorate Communities Everywhere Act of 2020 (JUSTICE Act). A previous Legal Sidebar briefly summarized the Executive Order and both bills, along with other recent reform proposals. This Legal Sidebar provides a comparison of the Justice in Policing Act and the JUSTICE Act. While this Sidebar does not purport to detail every provision of the two bills exhaustively, it analyzes key similarities and differences that are most relevant when evaluating the two proposals. The Sidebar first outlines subject matters that both bills cover, detailing similarities and differences between each bill on those subjects. It concludes by discussing provisions unique to each bill."

Diplomacy with North Korea: A Status Report [Updated June 19, 2020]
From the Overview: "United States-North Korea diplomacy to curb North Korea's nuclear and missile programs has been stalled since February 2019, and observers see little chance for progress in the coming months. In June 2020, tension increased on the Korean Peninsula, when the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK, North Korea's official name) turned more belligerent, blowing up an inter-Korean liaison office inside North Korea and threatening to interfere in upcoming U.S. elections, among other moves. Since President Donald Trump first agreed in March 2018 to hold a summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to discuss North Korea's nuclear and missile programs, the Trump Administration has emphasized the importance of developing a strong leader-to-leader relationship. The strategy appears to presume better results than the working-group negotiations employed by previous administrations. Trump and Kim have held three meetings: in Singapore (June 2018); Hanoi (February 2019); and Panmunjom (June 2019). The personal diplomacy defused the U.S.-DPRK hostility that had developed in 2017, raising alarms that war could break out on the Korean Peninsula. The diplomacy also has helped preserve North Korea's self-imposed moratoria on nuclear tests and intercontinental ballistic missile tests. Despite Kim's 2018 pledge to denuclearize, President Trump's approach to North Korea has been called into question by the absence of progress in negotiations, the DPRK's renewed hostility, allegations of sanctions-busting trade, and Pyongyang's continued enhancements to its military capabilities."
