of the nuclear triad of the ,united ,states 7a7 ,findings ,the ,senate makes the following findings3 7#a7 ,land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles 7in this section referred to as ,i,c,b,ms7 have been a critical part of the strategic deterrent of the ,united ,states for #f decades in conjunction with air and sea-based strategic delivery systems4 7#b7 ,president ,john ,f4 ,kennedy referred to the deployment of the first ,minuteman missile during the ,cuban ,missile ,crisis as his ace in the hole4 7#c7 ,the ,minuteman ,,iii missile entered service in #aigj and is still deployed in #bjai1 well beyond its originally intended service life4 7#d7 ,the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states peaked at more than #a1bjj deployed missiles during the ,cold ,war4 7#e7 ,the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states currently consists of approximately #djj ,minuteman ,,iii missiles deployed across #dej operational missile silos1 each carrying a single warhead4 7#f7 ,the ,russian ,federation currently deploys at least #cjj ,i,c,b,ms with multiple warheads loaded on each missile and has announced plans to replace its ,soviet-era systems with modernized ,i,c,b,ms4 7#g7 ,the ,people's ,republic of ,china currently deploys at least #ge ,i,c,b,ms and plans to grow its ,,icbm force through the deployment of modernized1 road-mobile ,i,c,b,ms that carry multiple warheads4 7#h7 ,the ,russian ,federation and the ,people's ,republic of ,china deploy nuclear weapons across a variety of platforms in addition to their ,,icbm forces4 7#i7 ,numerous countries possess or are seeking to develop nuclear weapons capabilities that pose challenges to the nuclear deterrence of the ,united ,states4 7#aj7 ,the nuclear deterrent of the ,united ,states is comprised of a triad of delivery systems for nuclear weapons1 including submarine-launched ballistic missiles 7in this subsection referred to as ,s,l,b,ms71 air-delivered gravity bombs and cruise missiles1 and land-based ballistic missiles that provide interlocking and mutually reinforcing attributes that enhance strategic deterrence4 7#aa7 ,weakening one leg of the triad limits the deterrent value of the other legs of the triad4 7#ab7 ,in the nuclear deterrent of the ,united ,states1 ,i,c,b,ms provide commanders with the most prompt response capability1 ,s,l,b,ms provide stealth and survivability1 and aircraft armed with nuclear weapons provide flexibility4 7#ac7 ,the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states forces any would-be attacker to confront more than #djj discrete targets1 thus creating an effectively insurmountable targeting problem for a potential adversary4 7#ad7 ,the size1 dispersal1 and global reach of the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states ensures that no adversary can escalate a crisis beyond the ability of the ,united ,states to respond4 7#ae7 ,a potential attacker would be forced to expend far more warheads to destroy the ,i,c,b,ms of the ,united ,states than the ,united ,states would lose in an attack1 because of the deployment of a single warhead on each ,,icbm of the ,united ,states4 7#af7 ,the ,,icbm force provides a persistent deterrent capability that reinforces strategic stability4 7#ag7 ,i,c,b,ms are the cheapest delivery system for nuclear weapons for the ,united ,states to operate and maintain4 7#ah7 ,united ,states ,strategic ,command has validated military requirements for the unique capabilities of ,i,c,b,ms4 7#ai7 ,in a #bjad analysis of alternatives1 the ,air ,force concluded that replacing the ,minuteman ,,iii missile would provide upgraded capabilities at lower cost when compared with extending the service life of the ,minuteman ,,iii missile4 7#bj7 ,the ,minuteman ,,iii replacement program1 known as the ground-based strategic deterrent1 is expected to provide a land-based strategic deterrent capability for #e decades after the program enters service4 7b7 ,sense of the ,senate ,it is the sense of the ,senate that-- 7#a7 land-based ,i,c,b,ms have certain characteristics1 including responsiveness1 persistence1 and dispersal1 that enhance strategic stability and magnify the deterrent value of the air and sea-based legs of the nuclear triad of the ,united ,states2 7#b7 ,i,c,b,ms have played and continue to play a role in deterring attacks on the ,united ,states and its allies2 7#c7 while arms control agreements have reduced the size of the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states1 adversaries of the ,united ,states continue to enhance1 enlarge1 and modernize their ,,icbm forces2 7#d7 the modernization of the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states through the ground-based strategic deterrent program should be supported2 7#e7 ,i,c,b,ms have the lowest operation1 maintenance1 and modernization costs of any part of the nuclear deterrent of the ,united ,states2 and 7#f7 unilaterally reducing the size of the ,,icbm force of the ,united ,states or delaying the implementation of the ground-based strategic deterrent program would degrade the deterrent capabilities of a fully operational and modernized nuclear triad and should not take place at the present time4 #ffjc4 ,reports by military departments on operation

particularly the ,augmenting ,intelligence ,using ,machines initiative and the ,joint ,artificial ,intelligence ,center4 #idjd4 ,encouraging cooperative actions to detect and counter foreign influence operations 7a7 ,findings ,congress makes the following findings3 7#a7 ,the ,russian ,federation1 through military intelligence units1 also known as the ,,gru1 and ,kremlin-linked troll organizations often referred to as the ,internet ,research ,agency1 deploy information warfare operations against the ,united ,states1 its allies and partners1 with the goal of advancing the strategic interests of the ,russian ,federation4 7#b7 ,one line of effort deployed as part of these information warfare operations is the weaponization of social media platforms with the goals of intensifying societal tensions1 undermining trust in governmental institutions within the ,united ,states1 its allies and partners in the ,west1 and generally sowing division1 fear1 and confusion4 7#c7 ,these information warfare operations are a threat to the national security of the ,united ,states and that of the allies and partners of the ,united ,states4 ,as ,director of ,national ,intelligence ,dan ,coats stated1 ,these actions are persistent1 they are pervasive and they are meant to undermine ,america's democracy44 7#d7 ,these information warfare operations continue to evolve and increase in sophistication4 7#e7 ,other foreign adversaries and hostile non-state actors will increasingly adopt similar tactics of deploying information warfare operations against the ,west4 7#f7 ,technological advances1 including artificial intelligence1 will only make it more difficult in the future to detect fraudulent accounts1 deceptive material posted on social media1 and malign behavior on social media platforms4 7#g7 ,because these information warfare operations are deployed within and across private social media platforms1 the companies that own these platforms have a responsibility to detect and remove foreign adversary networks operating clandestinely on their platforms4 7#h7 ,the social media companies are inherently technologically sophisticated and adept at rapidly analyzing large amounts of data and developing software-based solutions to diverse and ever-changing challenges on their platforms1 which makes them well-equipped to address the threat occurring on their platforms4 7#i7 ,independent analyses confirmed ,kremlin-linked threat networks1 based on data provided by several social media companies to the ,select ,committee on ,intelligence of the ,senate1 thereby demonstrating that it is possible to discern both broad patterns of cross-platform information warfare operations and specific fraudulent behavior on social media platforms4 7#aj7 ,general ,paul ,nakasone1 ,director of the ,national ,security ,agency1 emphasized the importance of these independent analyses to the planning and conduct of military cyber operations to frustrate ,kremlin-linked information warfare operations against the #bjah mid-term elections4 ,general ,nakasone stated that the reports were very1 very helpful in terms of being able to understand exactly what our adversary was trying to do to build dissent within our nation44 7#aa7 ,institutionalizing ongoing robust1 independent1 and vigorous analysis of data related to foreign threat networks within and across social media platforms will help counter ongoing information warfare operations against the ,united ,states1 its allies1 and its partners4 7#ab7 ,archiving and disclosing to the public the results of these analyses by the social media companies and trusted third-party experts in a transparent manner will serve to demonstrate that the social media companies are detecting and removing foreign malign activities from their platforms while protecting the privacy of the people of the ,united ,states and will build public understanding of the scale and scope of these foreign threats to our democracy1 since exposure is one of the most effective means to build resilience4 7b7 ,sense of the ,senate ,it is the sense of the ,senate that-- 7#a7 the social media companies should cooperate among themselves and with independent organizations and researchers on a sustained and regular basis to share and analyze data and indicators relevant to foreign information warfare operations within and across their platforms in order to detect and counter foreign information warfare operations that threaten the national security of the ,united ,states and its allies and partners2 7#b7 these analytic efforts should be organized in such a fashion as to meet the highest standards of ethics1 confidentiality1 and privacy protection of the people of the ,united ,states2 7#c7 these analytic efforts should be undertaken as soon as possible to facilitate countering ongoing ,kremlin1 ,kremlin-linked1 and other foreign information warfare operations and to aid in preparations for the ,united ,states presidential and congressional elections in #bjbj and beyond2 7#d7 the structure and operations of social media companies make them well positioned to address foreign adversary threat networks within and across their platforms1 and these efforts could be conducted without direct ,government involvement1 direction1 or regulation2 and 7#e7 if the social media industry fails to take sufficient action to address foreign adversary threat networks operating within or across their platforms1 ,congress would have to consider additional safeguards for ensuring that this threat is effectively mitigated4 7c7 ,authority to facilitate establishment of ,social ,media ,data ,analysis ,center 7#a7 ,authority ,the ,director of ,national ,intelligence1 in coordination with the ,secretary of ,defense1 may
