AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT WITHIN THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY.

    (a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--

        (1) sexual assault and sexual harassment arise from, and are

    often indicative of, an environment where toxic, provocative, and

    which toxic and disrespectful behavior is tolerated, harassment and

    even assault will often go unaddressed and unpunished;

        (3) while establishing clear policies and procedures and

    enhancing training are necessary first steps toward protecting

    victims and establishing stronger internal mechanisms for

    preventing and responding to future sexual assault and sexual

    harassment within the Central Intelligence Agency, comprehensive

    culture change driven by Agency leadership will be necessary to

    accomplish impactful and enduring improvement; and

        (4) it is vital for the Central Intelligence Agency to maintain

    an independent and neutral person with whom all employees at all

    levels, supervisors and non-supervisors, may speak confidentially,

    informally, and off-the-record about work-related concerns or

    questions.

    (b) Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Within the Agency.--The
