MEMORANDUM FOR: DCI
FROM: Dave Grie
SUBJECT: Scorecard with Congress
?
8 October 1986
Chiles Amendment on Moscow Embassy Construction: Chiles
attempted to submit an amendment requiringtithe Director to
certify publicly concerning engineering and security aspects of
the Embassy. We were able to get this deleted and inserted
instead in modified form in the classified annex of the Senate
Intelligence Authorization Bill.
NASA Authorization Bill HR 5495: The bill is now in
Conference. Sen. Hollings is moving to arrange DCI membership
on the National Aeronautics and Space Council. House staff is
aware of our request and are working on it. There is a 50-50
chance that the entire NASA bill may not be enacted because of
opposition by the Administration to other provisions in the bill.
Status of Intelligence Authorization Bill: Differences
between the House and Senate versions have been resolved and
final passage of the bill occurred earlier this week.
--Status of Helms Amendments: The Helms amendments have
been deleted from the bill that emerged from conference.
However, much of the Helms language remains in the
legislative report accompanying the Senate bill. Although
it does not have the force of law and did not survive
conference, we can comply with portions of it.
--Status of Hamilton Proposal: We lost this battle. The
proposal to enact into permanent law the requirement to
report to HPSCI and SSCI on transfer of defense articles and
service in excess of $1 million has been adopted. This
requirement was originally contained in the FY 86
Intelligence Authorization bill, but its duration in that
bill was only I year.

SECRET
Report on Counterintelligence and Security: The SSCI has
published an unclassified version of its counterintelligence and
security report after making more than 100 deletions from the
original draft.
Report on the Estimative Process: The SSCI agreed to delete
classified portions of its staff report on the estimative
process. Comm4ttee members are now being polled on whether or
.not to publish the report.
Enhanced MG: Although Rep. Chappell's attitude is not
completely clear, we have a commitment from Sen. Stevens' staff
director to call immediately if he senses a problem. We have
also polled two of Rep. Chappell's staffers. Currently, all
these indicators are positive.

MEMORANDUM FOR: DCI
FROM: Dave Grie
SUBJECT: Weekly Report
3 October 1986
oc/R
to Rif M---'sTAT
Continuing Resolution (CR): The House plans to name its
conferees for the CR conference on Monday. The official line
is that they hope to bring the conference report to the floor
by the end of next week. Another view is that the Iceland
meeting has completely thrown the House leadership off
schedule. Tip O'Neill had planned to leave the arms control
provisions in the Defense portion of the bill as his final
legacy. They cannot do this two days before the President
goes to Iceland without paying an enormous political price.
Therefore, according to this hypothesis, the leadership will
stall and delay in conference and not have a CR for floor
consideration until 14 or 15 October--after the Iceland
conference.
The Senate is expected to pass on the CR today. The CR
must be enacted by 8 October or another interim will be
needed. SSCI is now doing behind-the-scenes work to prevent
any cuts and to ensure that exemptions on undistributed cuts
and inflation that are in the defense authorization bill
(still in Committee) are included in the defense
appropriations bill. To this end, SSCI has written Senators
Stevens and Stennis.
Conference Report on Intelligence Authorization Bill: On
Thursday, the House passed the conference report on the
intelligence authorization bill. The Senate is scheduled to
approve the report today, thereby clearing the measure for
Presidential action. We are preparing a routine "enrolled
bill" letter to OMB Directorate Miller from the DCI
recommending Presidential signature of the bill, together
with an accompanying proposed signing statement.
Congressional Access to Contractors: At least one
staffer has told the Members of the HAC Defense Subcommittee
that our recent letter on this topic implied that contractors
had to report back to the Agency the substance of their
meetings with Congressional Members and staff. We have
solicited assistance from the Minority staff in ensuring that
Members understand that your letter said no such thing. We
have emphasized your security concerns, which the Members
understand and support, and we hope that this issue will be
tamped down before Congress reconvenes in January.
