TITLE VIII—NONSMOKING POLICY
SEC. 801. SHORT TITLE.
This title may be cited as the ‘‘Preventing Our Federal
Building Workers and Visitors From Exposure to Deadly
Smoke (PRO–FEDS) Act of 1993’’.
SEC. 802. FINDINGS.
Congress finds that—
(1) environmental tobacco smoke comes from sec-
ondhand smoke exhaled by smokers and sidestream
smoke emitted from the burning of cigarettes, cigars,
and pipes;
(2) since citizens of the United States spend up
to 90 percent of a day indoors, there is a significant
HR 2403 EAS
potential for exposure to environmental tobacco smoke
from indoor air;
(3) exposure to environmental tobacco smoke oc-
curs in schools, public buildings, and other indoor fa-
cilities;
(4) recent scientific studies have concluded that
exposure to environmental tobacco smoke is a cause of
lung cancer in healthy nonsmokers and is responsible
for acute and chronic respiratory problems and other
health impacts in sensitive populations (including
children);
(5) the health risks posed by environmental to-
bacco smoke exceed the risks posed by many environ-
mental pollutants regulated by the Environmental
Protection Agency; and
(6) according to information released by the En-
vironmental Protection Agency, environmental to-
bacco smoke results in a loss to the economy of over
$3,000,000,000 per year.
