(b)  [1] It is the sense of the Congress that every such firm should—
(1) apply for and use all adjustment assistance for which it is eligible under this subchapter,
(2) offer employment opportunities in the United States, if any exist, to its employees who are totally or partially separated workers as a result of the move, and
(3) assist in relocating employees to other locations in the United States where employment opportunities exist.
