conclude a maritime agreement for purposes of improving
cooperation between the United States and Mexico in the
interdiction of seaborne drug smuggling;
(2) the maritime agreement should be similar to agreements
between the United States and governments of other countries in
the Caribbean and Latin America which have proven beneficial to
the counterdrug activities of the countries concerned;

promises to the United States Government regarding cooperation
between such governments in counternarcotics activities,
including cooperation in matters relating to extradition,
prosecutions for money laundering, and other matters;
(4) the Government of Mexico is to be commended for its
cooperation with and support of the United States Government in
many law enforcement matters; and
(5) the continuing investigation by the Government of
Mexico of United States law enforcement personnel who
participated in the money laundering sting operation known as
CASABLANCA is an attempt by that government to embarrass and

within the scope of United States law and Mexican law in

narcotics from Turkey and from Afghanistan.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
(1) the dollar amount involved in international money
laundering likely exceeds $500,000,000,000 annually;
(2) organized crime groups are continually devising new
methods to launder the proceeds of illegal activities in an
effort to subvert the transaction reporting requirements of
subchapter II of chapter 53 of title 31, United States Code,
and chapter 2 of Public Law 91-508;
(3) a number of methods to launder the proceeds of criminal
activity were identified and described in congressional
hearings, including the use of financial service providers that
are not depository institutions, such as money transmitters and
check cashing services, the purchase and resale of durable
goods, and the exchange of foreign currency in the so-called
``black market'';
(4) recent successes in combating domestic money laundering
have involved the application of the heretofore seldom-used
authority granted to the Secretary of the Treasury and the
cooperative efforts of Federal, State, and local law
enforcement agencies; and
(5) such successes have been exemplified by the
implementation of the geographic targeting order in New York
City and through the work of the El Dorado task force, a group
comprised of agents of Department of the Treasury law
enforcement agencies, New York State troopers, and New York
City police officers.
(b) Purposes.--The purposes of this title are--
(1) to amend subchapter II of chapter 53 of title 31,
United States Code, to provide the law enforcement community
with the necessary legal authority to combat money laundering;
(2) to broaden the law enforcement community's access to
transactional information already being collected that relates
to coins and currency received in a nonfinancial trade or
business; and
(3) to express the sense of Congress that the Secretary of
the Treasury should expedite the development and implementation
of controls designed to deter money laundering activities at
certain types of financial institutions.

Subtitle B--Drug-Free Families
SEC. 3101. SHORT TITLE.
This subtitle may be cited as the ``Drug-Free Families Act of
1999''.
SEC. 3102. FINDINGS.
Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The National Institute on Drug Abuse estimates that in
1962, less than one percent of the nation's adolescents had
ever tried an illicit drug. By 1979, drug use among young
people had escalated to the highest levels in history: 34
percent of adolescents (ages 12-17), 65 percent of high school
seniors (age 18), and 70 percent of young adults (ages 18-25)
had used an illicit drug in their lifetime.
(2) Drug use among young people was not confined to initial
trials. By 1979, 16 percent of adolescents, 39 percent of high
school seniors, and 38 percent of young adults had used an
illicit drug in the past month. Moreover, one in nine high
school seniors used marijuana daily.
(3) In 1979, the year the largest number of seniors used
marijuana, their belief that marijuana could hurt them was at
its lowest (35 percent) since surveys have tracked these
measures.
(4) Three forces appeared to be driving this escalation in
drug use among children and young adults. Between 1972 and
1978, a nationwide political campaign conducted by drug
legalization advocates persuaded eleven state legislatures to
``decriminalize'' marijuana. (Many of those states have
subsequently ``recriminalized'' the drug.) Such legislative
action reinforced advocates' assertion that marijuana was
``relatively harmless.''
(5) The decriminalization effort gave rise to the emergence
of ``head shops'' (shops for ``heads,'' or drug users--``coke
heads,'' ``pot heads,'' ``acid heads,'' etc.) which sold drug
paraphernalia--an array of toys, implements, and instructional
pamphlets and booklets to enhance the use of illicit drugs.
Some 30,000 such shops were estimated to be doing business
throughout the nation by 1978.
(6) In the absence of Federal funding for drug education
then, most of the drug education materials that were available
proclaimed that few illicit drugs were addictive and most were
``less harmful'' than alcohol and tobacco and therefore taught
young people how to use marijuana, cocaine, and other illicit
drugs ``responsibly''.
(7) Between 1977 and 1980, three national parent drug-
prevention organizations--National Families in Action, PRIDE,
and the National Federation of Parents for Drug-Free Youth (now
called the National Family Partnership)--emerged to help
concerned parents form some 4,000 local parent prevention
groups across the nation to reverse all of these trends in
order to prevent children from using drugs. Their work created
what has come to be known as the parents drug-prevention
movement, or more simply, the parent movement. This movement
set three goals: to prevent the use of any illegal drug, to
persuade those who had started using drugs to stop, and to
obtain treatment for those who had become addicted so that they
could return to drug-free lives.
(8) The parent movement pursued a number of objectives to
achieve these goals. First, it helped parents educate
themselves about the harmful effects of drugs, teach that
information to their children, communicate that they expected
their children not to use drugs, and establish consequences if
children failed to meet that expectation. Second, it helped
parents form groups with other parents to set common age-
appropriate social and behavioral guidelines to protect their
children from exposure to drugs. Third, it encouraged parents
to insist that their communities reinforce parents' commitment
to protect children from drug use.
(9) The parent movement stopped further efforts to
decriminalize marijuana, both in the states and at the Federal
level.
(10) The parent movement worked for laws to ban the sale of
drug paraphernalia. If drugs were illegal, it made no sense to
condone the sale of toys and implements to enhance the use of
illegal drugs, particularly when those products targeted
children. As town, cities, counties, and states passed anti-
paraphernalia laws, drug legalization organizations challenged
their Constitutionality in Federal courts until the early
1980's, when the United States Supreme Court upheld Nebraska's
law and established the right of communities to ban the sale
of drug paraphernalia.
(11) The parent movement insisted that drug-education
materials convey a strong no-use message in compliance with
both the law and with medical and scientific information that
demonstrates that drugs are harmful, particularly to young
people.
(12) The parent movement encouraged others in society to
join the drug prevention effort and many did, from First Lady
Nancy Reagan to the entertainment industry, the business
community, the media, the medical community, the educational
community, the criminal justice community, the faith community,
and local, state, and national political leaders.
(13) The parent movement helped to cause drug use among
young people to peak in 1979. As its efforts continued
throughout the next decade, and as others joined parents to
expand the drug-prevention movement, between 1979 and 1992
these collaborative prevention efforts contributed to reducing
monthly illicit drug use by two-thirds among adolescents and
young adults and reduced daily marijuana use among high-school
seniors from 10.7 percent to 1.9 percent. Concurrently, both
the parent movement and the larger prevention movement that
evolved throughout the 1980's, working together, increased high
school seniors' belief that marijuana could hurt them, from 35
percent in 1979 to 79 percent in 1991.
(14) Unfortunately, as drug use declined, most of the 4,000
volunteer parents groups that contributed to the reduction in
drug use disbanded, having accomplished the job they set out to
do. But the absence of active parent groups left a vacuum that
was soon filled by a revitalized drug-legalization movement.
Proponents began advocating for the legalization of marijuana
for medicine, the legalization of all Schedule I drugs for
medicine, the legalization of hemp for medicinal, industrial
and recreational use, and a variety of other proposals, all
designed to ultimately attack, weaken, and eventually repeal
the nation's drug laws.
(15) Furthermore, legalization proponents are also
beginning to advocate for treatment that maintains addicts on
the drugs to which they are addicted (heroin maintenance for
heroin addicts, controlled drinking for alcoholics, etc.), for
teaching school children to use drugs ``responsibly,'' and for
other measures similar to those that produced the drug epidemic
among young people in the 1970's.
(16) During the 1990's, the message embodied in all of this
activity has once again driven down young people's belief that
drugs can hurt them. As a result, the reductions in drug use
that occurred over 13 years reversed in 1992, and adolescent
drug use has more than doubled.
(17) Today's parents are almost universally in the
workplace and do not have time to volunteer. Many families are
headed by single parents. In some families no parents are
available, and grandparents, aunts, uncles, or foster parents
are raising the family's children.
(18) Recognizing that these challenges make it much more
difficult to reach parents today, several national parent and
family drug-prevention organizations have formed the Parent
Collaboration to address these issues in order to build a new
parent and family movement to prevent drug use among children.
(19) Motivating parents and parent groups to coordinate
with local community anti-drug coalitions is a key goal of the
Parent Collaboration, as well as coordinating parent and family
drug-prevention efforts with Federal, State, and Local
governmental and private agencies and political, business,
medical and scientific, educational, criminal justice,
religious, and media and entertainment industry leaders.
SEC. 3103. PURPOSES.
The purposes of this subtitle are to--

harmful to their health, well-being, and ability to function
successfully in life;
(4) help parents and families educate society that the best
way to protect children from drug use and all of its related
problems is to convey a clear, consistent, no-use message;
(5) strengthen coordination, cooperation, and collaboration
between parents and families and all others who are interested
in protecting children from drug use and all of its related
problems;
(6) help parents strengthen their families, neighborhoods,
and school communities to reduce risk factors and increase
protective factors to ensure the healthy growth of children;
and
(7) provide resources in the fiscal year 2000 Federal drug
control budget for a grant to the Parent Collaboration to
conduct a national campaign to mobilize today's parents and
families through the provision of information, training,

(2) The drug crisis facing the United States poses a
paramount threat to the national security interests of the
United States.
(3) The trans-shipment of illicit drugs through United
States borders cannot be halted without an effective drug
interdiction strategy.
(4) The Clinton Administration has placed a low priority on
efforts to reduce the supply of illicit drugs, and the seizure
of such drugs by the Coast Guard and other Federal agencies has
decreased, as is evidenced by a 68 percent decrease in the
pounds of cocaine seized by such agencies between 1991 and
1996.
(5) The Western Hemisphere Drug Elimination Act was enacted
into law on October 19, 1998.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--

revise the Global Military Force Policy of the Department of Defense in
order--
(1) to treat the international drug interdiction and
counterdrug activities of the Department as a military
operation other than war, thereby elevating the priority given
such activities under the Policy to the next priority below the
priority given to war under the Policy and to the same priority
given to peacekeeping operations under the Policy; and
(2) to allocate the assets of the Department to such
activities in accordance with the priority given such
activities under the revised Policy.
