Concerning expedited security determinations relating to nonimmigrant visa requests for certain artists and entertainers from countries that are state sponsors of international terrorism.

Calls for: (1) the Secretary of State and the heads of other appropriate U.S. agencies to expedite and coordinate determinations with respect to the application for a non-immigrant visa of an artist or entertainer from a country that is a state sponsor of international terrorism who is seeking to enter the United States to attend a public awards ceremony to recognize excellence in the arts where the alien has been nominated or selected to receive an award; and (2) U.S. national security interests to continue to be of paramount importance in any such expedited determination.
