                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
  Expressing the sense of Congress that provisions that provoke veto 
    threats from the President should not be included on bills that 
appropriate funds for the implementation of recommendations of the Base 
                  Closure and Realignment Commission.

Whereas Congress and President George W. Bush approved the final recommendations 
        of the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission under the 2005 
        round of defense base closure and realignment;
Whereas these recommendations propose major changes in the positioning of United 
        States military personnel;
Whereas the Department of Defense is moving rapidly to implement these 
        recommendations;
Whereas the communities near military installations that are slated to receive 
        major troop increases have already invested time and capital in making 
        preparations for upcoming increases in population; and
Whereas funding these recommendations on an annual basis is absolutely necessary 
        for their implementation and the economic confidence of the communities 
        that are expecting increases in population: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring),  
That it is the sense of Congress that Congress should not include 
provisions that provoke veto threats from the President in bills that 
appropriate funds for the implementation of recommendations of the Base 
Closure and Realignment Commission.
