It is the sense of Congress that— the latest iteration of the Joint Strategic Plan developed by the Department and USAID does not adequately address the strategic priorities of the United States, identify key threats and opportunities, or offer the rationale for making hard choices with regard to limited resources; and additional requirements to the Joint Strategic Plan are necessary to encourage the development of a national diplomacy and development strategy, elements of which shall be provided to Congress in classified form.
In addition to meeting the requirements described in section 306 of title 5, United States Code, the strategic plan developed by the Department and USAID shall— refer to and support the most recent national security strategy report submitted pursuant to section 108 of the National Security Act of 1947 ( 50 U.S.C. 3043 ); be integrated and coordinated with other relevant national-level plans and with the strategic plans of other Federal departments and agencies, including the current National Defense Strategy; prioritize the leading worldwide diplomatic and development interests and objectives of the United States and the leading threats and challenges associated with those interests and objectives; identify the major diplomatic, economic, and assistance approaches designed to support and further the worldwide interests, goals, commitments, and policies that are vital to the national security of the United States; describe how the diplomatic and development community will utilize personnel, partnerships, alliances, industry, technology, international and nongovernmental organizations, and other capabilities to execute the efforts described in paragraph (4); outline the organizational roles and missions of the elements of the diplomatic and development community as part of an integrated enterprise, and how those elements coordinate and collaborate with other Federal departments and agencies supporting the national security strategy of the United States; include an assessment of each bureau headed by an Assistant Secretary of State or an Assistant Administrator of USAID regarding its current and anticipated contribution to the overall strategic plan, including analysis of personnel, responsibilities, performance, and chain of management; identify sources of strategic, institutional, programmatic, fiscal, and technological risk; analyze factors that may affect the diplomatic and development community’s performance in pursuing the approaches described in paragraph
(4)during the following 10-year period; and identify extraordinary resources and statutory authorities that may be necessary or appropriate to implement this strategy. The plan required under subsection
(b)shall be transmitted in both classified and unclassified form, but may include a classified annex. Not later than 30 days after submission of the strategic plan required under section 306 of title 5, United States Code, the Secretary shall submit to the appropriate congressional committees and to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives any classified annex referred to in subsection (c).
