Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Civil War Sesquicentennial 
Commission Act''.

SEC. 2. PURPOSE.

    The purpose of this Act is to establish a Civil War 
Sesquicentennial Commemoration Commission to--
            (1) ensure a suitable national observance of the 
        sesquicentennial of the Civil War that includes recognition of 
        the historic, social, legal, cultural, and political forces 
        that--
                    (A) brought about the Civil War; and
                    (B) influenced the course and outcomes of the Civil 
                War;
            (2) explore the causes of the Civil War to gain a better 
        understanding of the reasons that the democratic framework of 
        the United States failed to resolve the sectional issues 
        without resorting to war;
            (3) fully examine and reflect on the consequences of the 
        Civil War, which Congress directed the National Park Service to 
        address in National Park Service programs and materials 
        beginning in 1999, including consequences such as--
                    (A) the Reconstruction era and the aftermath of 
                that era;
                    (B) the economic devastation of the entire South as 
                a result of long-term post-war policies;
                    (C) the concomitant constriction of equal rights 
                for African-American citizens; and
                    (D) the ultimate economic recovery of the region 
                and the extension of civil rights for the descendants 
                of enslaved peoples almost a century later;
            (4) assist States and national organizations with programs 
        and activities for the observance of the sesquicentennial of 
        the Civil War;
            (5) assist in ensuring that any observance of the 
        sesquicentennial of the Civil War is inclusive and 
        appropriately recognizes the experiences and points of view of 
        all people affected by the Civil War; and
            (6) provide assistance for the development of programs, 
        projects, and activities on the Civil War that have lasting 
        educational and preservation value.

``Sec. 1601. Establishment of waiver process.''.

Answer:
Health Care Waiver Fairness Act of 2011 - Amends the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) to require the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Secretary of Labor, and the Secretary of Treasury to establish waiver processes under which the administrator of a health plan, an employer, an individual, or other entity may seek to waive the application of a health insurance coverage requirement under PPACA. Sets forth PPACA requirements that may be waived, including those related to minimum essential coverage and employers offering health care coverage to employees.

Establishes requirements for the waiver process, including requiring submission of a statement describing how the imposition of the PPACA requirement would result in a significant decrease in access to coverage or a significant increase in premiums or other costs for such plan, employer, individual, or entity. Deems to be approved any waiver including such a statement.

Requires the Secretary of HHS to conduct a public awareness campaign of the waiver process with funds made available for the Prevention and Public Health Fund.
