            (2) Data quality principle.--Personal data should be
        accurate, complete, and current.
            (3) Purpose specification principle.--The purposes for
        which personal data are collected should be specified and
        disclosed to the data subject not later than the time of data
        collection, and any subsequent use should be limited to the
        fulfillment of those disclosed purposes, or such other purposes
        as are not incompatible with those disclosed purposes and as
        are also disclosed to the data subject on each occasion of a
        change of purpose.

                    (B) by the authority of law.
            (5) Openness principle.--A data subject should have readily
        available means of establishing the existence and nature of

        controller.

                        to the individual;
                    (C) to be given reasons if a request made under
                subparagraphs (A) and (B) is denied, and to be able to
                challenge such denial; and
                    (D) to challenge data relating to the individual
                and, if the challenge is successful to have the data
                erased, rectified, completed, or amended.
            (7) Accountability principle.--A data controller should be

    (a) Requirement.--Not later than two years after the date of
enactment of this Act, the Attorney General shall submit a report to
the Committees on the Judiciary of the Senate and the House of
Representatives on the feasibility of developing and implementing an
automated entry-exit control system that would collect a record of

United States, including departures and arrivals at the land borders of
the United States.
    (b) Contents of Report.--Such report shall--
            (1) assess the costs and feasibility of various means of
        operating such an automated entry-exit control system,
        including exploring--
                    (A) how, if the automated entry-exit control system
                were limited to certain aliens arriving at airports,
                departure records of those aliens could be collected
                when they depart through a land border or seaport; and
                    (B) the feasibility of the Attorney General, in
                consultation with the Secretary of State, negotiating
                reciprocal agreements with the governments of
                contiguous countries to collect such information on
                behalf of the United States and share it in an
                acceptable automated format;
            (2) consider the various means of developing such a system,
        including the use of pilot projects if appropriate, and assess
        which means would be most appropriate in which geographical
        regions;
            (3) evaluate how such a system could be implemented without
        increasing border traffic congestion and border crossing delays
        and, if any such system would increase border crossing delays,
        evaluate to what extent such congestion or delays would
        increase; and
            (4) estimate the length of time that would be required for
        any such system to be developed and implemented.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The efforts of the Government of Iran to acquire
        weapons of mass destruction and the means to deliver them and
        its support of international terrorism endanger the national
        security and foreign policy interests of the United States and
        those countries with which it shares common strategic and
        foreign policy objectives.
            (2) The objective of preventing the proliferation of
        weapons of mass destruction and international terrorism through
        existing multilateral and bilateral initiatives requires
        additional efforts to deny Iran the financial means to sustain
        its nuclear, chemical, biological, and missile weapons
        programs.

SEC. 3. DECLARATION OF POLICY.

    The Congress declares that it is the policy of the United States to

the development and acquisition of weapons of mass destruction and the
means to deliver them by limiting the development of petroleum
resources in Iran.

Output: Native Health Access Improvement Act of 2017 This bill amends the Public Health Service Act to require the Indian Health Service (IHS) to award grants to Indian health facilities for the prevention and treatment of mental health and substance use disorders. The IHS must establish a technical assistance center for grantees. In addition, this bill amends the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to define “Indian” for purposes of health insurance reform, exchanges, and subsidies. The definition includes individuals of Indian descent who are members of an Indian community served by the IHS and individuals considered by the Department of Health and Human Services to be Indian for purposes of eligibility for Indian health care services. Individuals included in the definition are eligible for special monthly enrollment periods on health insurance exchanges and elimination of cost sharing under individual health coverage for those whose income is not more than 300% of the poverty line. Under current law, only members of Indian tribes are eligible for these benefits. The bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to exempt Indians, as defined by this bill, from the requirement to maintain minimum essential health coverage.

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Taxpayer Right-To-Know Act of
1997''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) Individual incomes taxes amount to one of the greatest
        annual expenses for many Americans.
            (2) There is a great deal of uncertainty on the part of
        taxpayers concerning where and how their income tax dollars are
        spent.
            (3) Taxpayers do not receive any acknowledgment of payment
        from the Internal Revenue Service nor any explanation itemizing
        how their tax payments are spent.
            (4) There presently exists no straightforward way for a
        taxpayer to determine exactly how much he or she paid for
        specific governmental activities.
            (5) The failure to provide taxpayers with an itemized
        listing showing how their tax dollars are spent contributes to
        a lack of knowledge about the Government and subsequently to a
        less informed electorate.
            (6) The Internal Revenue Service must update its technology
        and treat taxpayer information as a strategic asset to improve
        customer service.
            (7) Taxpayer education by the Internal Revenue Service
        aimed at showing taxpayers how their tax dollars are spent
        leads to increased compliance.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are as follows:
            (1) To educate individual income tax filers about how much
        they contribute annually, in actual dollars and cents, to
        various governmental programs, projects, and activities.
            (2) To improve the public's understanding of the Federal
        Government.
            (3) To enhance the public's level of satisfaction with the
        Internal Revenue Service.

SEC. 3. ITEMIZED INCOME TAX RECEIPT.

        deemed appropriate by the Secretary and the Director of the
        Office of Management and Budget to enhance taxpayer
        understanding of the Federal budget.

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Women's Cardiovascular Diseases
Research and Prevention Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds as follows with respect to women in the United
States:
            (1) Heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular diseases
        are the leading causes of death in women.
            (2) Heart attacks and strokes are leading causes of
        disability in women.
            (3) Cardiovascular diseases claim the lives of more women
        each year than does cancer. Each year more than 500,000 females
        die of cardiovascular diseases, while approximately 254,000
        females die of cancer. Heart attack kills more than 5\1/2\
        times as many females as breast cancer. Stroke kills twice as
        many females as breast cancer.
            (4) More than 1 in 5 females has some form of
        cardiovascular disease. Of females under age 65, each year
        approximately 20,000 die of heart attacks. In the case of
        African-American women, from ages 35 to 74 the death rate from
        heart attacks is 38 percent higher than that of white women.
            (5) Each year since 1984, cardiovascular diseases have
        claimed the lives of more females than males. In 1993, of the
        number of individuals who died of such diseases, 52 percent
        were females and 48 percent were males.
            (6) The clinical course of cardiovascular diseases is
        different in women than in men, and current diagnostic
        capabilities are less accurate in women than in men. Once a
        woman develops a cardiovascular disease, she is more likely
        than a man to have continuing health problems, and she is more
        likely to die.
            (7) Of women who have had a heart attack, approximately 44
        percent die within 1 year of the attack. Of men who have had
        such an attack, 27 percent die within 1 year. At older ages,
        women who have had a heart attack are twice as likely as men to
        die from the attack within a few weeks. Women are more likely
        than men to have a stroke during the first 6 years following a
        heart attack. More than 60 percent of women who suffer a stroke
        die within 12 years. Long-term survivorship of stroke is better
        in women than in men. Of individuals who die from a stroke,
        each year approximately 61 percent are females. In 1993, 91,060
        females died from strokes. Women have unrecognized heart
        attacks more frequently than men. Of women who died suddenly
        from heart attack, 63 percent had no previous evidence of
        disease.
            (8) More than half of the annual health care costs that are
        related to cardiovascular diseases are attributable to the
        occurrence of the diseases in women, each year costing this
        nation hundreds of billions of dollars in health care costs and
        lost productivity.
            (9) A number of recent studies have found that hormone
        replacement therapy contributes to the reduction of risk
        factors for cardiovascular disease in postmenopausal women and
        may reduce the risk of cardiovascular mortality in such women
        by as much as 50 percent.

SEC. 3. EXPANSION AND INTENSIFICATION OF ACTIVITIES REGARDING HEART
              ATTACK, STROKE AND OTHER CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES IN
              WOMEN.

    Subpart 2 of part C of title IV of the Public Health Service Act
(42 U.S.C. 285b et seq.) is amended by inserting after section 424 the
following section:

   ``heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular diseases in women
