(1) Genetic engineering is an artificial gene
transfer process wholly different from traditional
breeding.
(2) Genetic engineering can be used to produce
new versions of virtually all plant and animal foods.
Thus, within a short time, the food supply could
consist almost entirely of genetically engineered
products.
(3) This conversion from a food supply based
on traditionally bred organisms to one based on or-
ganisms produced through genetic engineering could
be one the most important changes in our food sup-
ply in this century.
(4) Genetically engineered foods present new
issues of safety that have not been adequately stud-
ied.
(5) The Congress has previously required that
food additives be analyzed for their safety prior to
their placement on the market.
(6) Adding new genes into a food should be
considered adding a food additive, thus requiring an
analysis of safety factors.
(7) Federal agencies have failed to uphold con-
gressional intent of the Food Additives Amendment
of 1958 by allowing genetically engineered foods to

A BILL
To assign liability for injury caused by genetically engineered
organisms.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Genetically Engineered
Organism Liability Act of 2002’’.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds the following:
(1) The negative consequences of genetically en-
gineered crops may impact farmers who grow these
crops, neighbor farmers who do not grow these
crops, and consumers.
(2) Biotech companies are selling a technology
that is being commercialized ahead of the new and
unknown science of genetic engineering.
(3) Farmers may suffer from crop failures,
neighbor and nearby farmers may suffer from cross
pollination, increased insect resistance, and un-
wanted volunteer genetically engineered plants, and
consumers may suffer from health and environ-
mental impacts.
(4) Therefore, biotech companies should be
found liable for the failures of genetically engineered
crops when they arise.
SEC. 3. LIABILITY.
(a) CAUSE OF ACTION.—A biotech company is liable
to any party injured by the release of a genetically engi-
neered organism into the environment if that injury re-
sults from that genetic engineering. The prevailing plain-
tiff in an action under this subsection may recover reason-
able attorney’s fees and other litigation expenses as a part
of the costs.
(b) INDEMNITY.—For the purposes of subsection (a),
the term ‘‘injury’’ includes any liability of a person who
uses that organism in accordance with applicable Federal
and other law, if that liability arises from that use.
(c) NOT WAIVABLE.—The liability created by sub-
section (a) may not be waived or otherwise avoided by con-
tract.
(d) DEFINITION.—As used in this section, the term
‘‘biotech company’’ means a person—
(1) engaged in the business of genetically engi-
neering an organism; or
(2) obtaining the patent rights to such an orga-
nism for the purposes of commercial exploitation of
that organism.
Æ
of such Code is amended by inserting before the item re-

To provide for various programs and activities to respond to the problem
of asthma in urban areas.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MAY 22, 2002
Mr. TOWNS introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee
on Energy and Commerce
A BILL
To provide for various programs and activities to respond
to the problem of asthma in urban areas.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Urban Asthma Assist-
ance Act’’.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds as follows:
(1) Asthma is a serious chronic condition af-
fecting an estimated 14,000,000 to 15,000,000 indi-
viduals in the United States, including almost
5,000,000 children.
(2) Asthma accounts for an estimated 3 million
lost workdays for adults and 10.1 million lost school
days in children annually. Asthma is one of the Na-
tion’s most common and costly diseases. Over the
past 20 years mortality, morbidity and hospital dis-
charge rates attributed to asthma have substantially
increased. Between 1979 and 1998, the age-adjusted
mortality rate increased 56 per-cent while the preva-
lence rate increased by almost 22 percent in males
and 97 percent in females between 1982 and 1996.
(3) Asthma is a chronic illness that is treatable
with ambulatory and specialty care, but over 43 per-
cent of its economic impact comes from use of emer-
gency rooms, hospitalization, and death.
(4) Certain pests, such as cockroaches and ro-
dents, are known to create public health problems
and proliferate at higher rates in urban areas. These
pests may spread infectious disease and contribute
to the worsening of chronic respiratory illnesses, in-
cluding asthma.
(5) Research supported by the National Insti-
tutes of Health demonstrated that the cockroach, ro-
dent, house dust mite, and mold allergens, as well as
tobacco smoke and feathers, are important environ-
mental causes of asthma-related illness and hos-
pitalization among children in inner-city areas of the
United States.
(6) Morbidity and mortality related to childhood
asthma are disproportionately high in urban areas.
(7) In 1996 the prevalence rate in whites was
53.5 per 1,000 persons while the prevalence rate in
blacks was 69.6 per 1,000 persons. Both of these
rates represent significant differences from the rates
reported in 1982, when they were 34.6 and 39.2 for
whites and blacks, respectively.
(8) In 1995, there were more than 1,800,000
emergency room visits made for asthma-related at-
tacks and among these, the rate for emergency room
visits was 48.8 per 10,000 visits among whites and
228.9 per 10,000 visits among blacks. These statis-
tics confirm that our healthcare system encourages
emergency room and trauma care rather than pre-
vention.
(9) Hospitalization rates were highest for indi-
viduals 4 years old and younger, and were 10.9 per
10,000 visits for whites and 35.5 per 10,000 visits
for blacks.
(1) It is in the national interest that qualifying
active-duty service members be allowed to vote in
Federal elections.
(2) Since 1977, active-duty service members
serving overseas or on the United States mainland
have been excluded from fully participating and vot-
ing in both general and run-off Federal elections in
American Samoa due to several factors, including
local law that requires active duty military members
to register in person, limited air and mail service be-
tween the United States mainland and American
Samoa, and delays in the preparation of new ballots
in the case of runoff elections.
(3) American Samoa law requiring uniformed
and overseas voters to register to vote in person is
contrary to the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens
Absentee Voting Act (42 U.S.C. 1973ff et seq.).
(4) The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Ab-
sentee Voting Act has been in effect for over 15
years and American Samoa has not addressed this
discrepancy between Federal and territorial law de-
spite notice that the discrepancy exists.
(5) It is necessary to take additional action to
ensure that the votes of active-duty service members
are counted in Federal elections conducted in Amer-
