                                 A BILL

 
To amend the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act to provide for partial 
   restitution to individuals who worked in uranium mines, mills, or 
transport which provided uranium for the use and benefit of the United 
               States Government, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE; FINDINGS.

    (a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``Radiation Exposure 
Compensation Improvement Act of 1999''.
    (b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The intent of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act 
        (42 U.S.C. 2210 note), enacted in 1990, was to apologize to 
        victims of the weapons program of the Federal Government, but 
        uranium workers who have applied for compensation under the Act 
        have faced a disturbing number of challenges.
            (2) The congressional oversight hearing conducted by the 
        Committee on Labor and Human Resources of the Senate has shown 
        that since passage of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act, 
        former uranium workers and their families have not received 
        prompt and efficient compensation.
            (3) There is no plausible justification for the Federal 
        Government's failure to warn and protect the lives and health 
        of uranium workers.
            (4) Progress on implementing the Radiation Exposure 
        Compensation Act has been impeded by criteria for compensation 
        that is far more stringent than for other groups for which 
        compensation is provided.
            (5) The President's Advisory Committee on Human Radiation 
        Experiments recommended that amendments to the Radiation 
        Exposure Compensation should be made.
            (6) Uranium millers, aboveground miners, and individuals 
        who transported uranium ore should be provided compensation 
        that is similar to that provided for underground uranium miners 
        in cases in which those individuals suffered disease or 
        resultant death as a result of the failure of the Federal 
        Government to warn of health hazards.

SEC. 2. TRUST FUND.

    Section 3(d) of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 
2210 note) is amended by striking ``of this Act'' and inserting ``of 
the Radiation Exposure Compensation Improvement Act of 1999.''

Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 2210 note) is amended--

            (2) by adding at the end the following:

                comprising the Navajo Nation Reservation that were 
                subjected to fallout from nuclear weapons testing 
                conducted in Nevada; and''.
    (b) Claims Relating to Specified Diseases.--Section 4(b)(2) of the 
Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (42 U.S.C. 2210 note) is amended--
            (1) by striking ``the onset of the disease was between 2 
        and 30 years of first exposure,'' and inserting ``the onset of 
        the disease was at least 2 years after first exposure, lung 
        cancer (other than in situ lung cancer that is discovered 
        during or after a post-mortem exam),'';
            (2) by striking ``(provided initial exposure occurred by 
        the age of 20)'' after ``thyroid'';
            (3) by inserting ``male or'' before ``female breast'';
            (4) by striking ``(provided initial exposure occurred prior
