(1) The District of Columbia has recently witnessed a spate of
senseless killings of innocent citizens caught in the crossfire of
shootings. A Justice Department crime victimization survey found
that while the city saw a decline in the homicide rate between 1996
and 1997, the rate was the highest among a dozen cities and more
than double the second highest city.
(2) The District of Columbia has not made adequate funding
available to fight drug abuse in recent years, and the city has not
deployed its resources as effectively as possible. In fiscal year
1998, $20,900,000 was spent on publicly funded drug treatment in
the District compared to $29,000,000 in fiscal year 1993. The
District's Addiction and Prevention and Recovery Agency currently
has only 2,200 treatment slots, a 50 percent drop from 1994, with
more than 1,100 people on waiting lists.
(3) The District of Columbia has seen a rash of inmate escapes
from halfway houses. According to Department of Corrections
records, between October 21, 1998 and January 19, 1999, 376 of the
1,125 inmates assigned to halfway houses walked away. Nearly 280 of
the 376 escapees were awaiting trial including two charged with
murder.
(4) The District of Columbia public schools system faces
serious challenges in correcting chronic problems, particularly
long-standing deficiencies in providing special education services
to the 1 in 10 District students needing program benefits,
including backlogged assessments, and repeated failure to meet a
compliance agreement on special education reached with the
Department of Education.
(5) Deficiencies in the delivery of basic public services from
cleaning streets to waiting time at Department of Motor Vehicles to
a rat population estimated earlier this year to exceed the human
population have generated considerable public frustration.
(6) Last year, the District of Columbia forfeited millions of
dollars in Federal grants after Federal auditors determined that
several agencies exceeded grant restrictions and in other
instances, failed to spend funds before the grants expired.
(7) Findings of a 1999 report by the Annie E. Casey Foundation
that measured the well-being of children reflected that, with one
exception, the District ranked worst in the United States in every
category from infant mortality to the rate of teenage births to
statistics chronicling child poverty.
(b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress that in
considering the District of Columbia's fiscal year 2001 budget, the
Congress will take into consideration progress or lack of progress in
addressing the following issues:
(1) Crime, including the homicide rate, implementation of
community policing, the number of police officers on local beats,
and the closing down of open-air drug markets.
(2) Access to drug abuse treatment, including the number of
treatment slots, the number of people served, the number of people
on waiting lists, and the effectiveness of treatment programs.
(3) Management of parolees and pretrial violent offenders,
including the number of halfway house escapes and steps taken to
improve monitoring and supervision of halfway house residents to
reduce the number of escapes.
(4) Education, including access to special education services
and student achievement.
(5) Improvement in basic city services, including rat control
and abatement.
(6) Application for and management of Federal grants.
(7) Indicators of child well-being.

financial, personnel, and management resources; and
(2) submit to Congress a report on the results of the study
under paragraph (1).

an application, a Federal agency that receives an application

exercises control shall take final action on the application,
including action on the issuance of right-of-way permits at market
rates.
(2) Existing law.--Nothing in this subsection shall be
construed to affect the applicability of existing laws regarding--
(A) judicial review under chapter 7 of title 5, United
States Code (the Administrative Procedure Act), and the
Communications Act of 1934;
(B) the National Environmental Policy Act, the National
Historic Preservation Act and other applicable Federal
