SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Fire Safety Education Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) the Nation's fire losses are estimated at 5,000 deaths 
        and 29,000 injuries annually, producing an economic loss 
        conservatively estimated at $10,000,000,000 a year plus more 
        than $1,000,000,000 a year in health care costs;
            (2) sustained and targeted fire safety education at the 
        State and local levels, particularly in identifiable high-risk 
        populations, produces dramatic results in preventing fires, 
        fire deaths, and dollar loss from fire;
            (3) in recent years, the Nation's fire departments have 
        seen their fire safety education budgets cut dramatically and, 
        in many cases, eliminated;
            (4) there is a need to expand the availability of State and 
        local fire prevention programs and supporting resources and 
        materials to help State agencies and local fire departments in 
        carrying out effective public education;
            (5) fire departments in other countries with fewer fire 
        deaths per capita than the United States spend an average of 4-
        10 percent of their budgets on fire prevention, versus less 
        than 3 percent for United States departments; and
            (6) only by accurately collecting and analyzing data on 
        fire deaths, injuries and dollar loss can the Nation's fire 
        departments pinpoint the populations and regions where they 
        most need to direct their educational efforts, thus leading to 
        a more efficient and effective use of resources.

SEC. 3. FIRE SAFETY EDUCATION.

            (2) not more than 25 percent may be used to implement new 
        regional or local fire safety and prevention programs targeting 
        high risk populations; and
            (3) at least 50 percent shall be used for awards of not 
        more than $10,000 for existing regional or local fire safety 
        and prevention programs that have been demonstrated to be 
        effective in preventing fires, fire deaths and injuries, and

answer:

Airline Passenger Bill of Rights Act of 2007 - Requires a covered airline to: (1) establish procedures for handling passenger complaints; (2) provide customers at the airport and aboard an aircraft with information regarding delay, cancellation, or diversion; (3) establish procedures to allow passengers to exit the aircraft in the case of a departure or arrival delay which would require passengers to remain on a grounded aircraft for more than three hours, with specified exceptions; (4) provide passengers on a departure- or arrival-delayed grounded aircraft with essential ventilation, food, water, sanitary, and medical services; (5) publish a monthly list of its chronically delayed flights and provide such information upon ticket purchase; (6) publish and update lowest fare and schedule information; and (7) make every reasonable effort to return lost baggage within 24 hours.

Directs the Secretary of Transportation to: (1) review airline and airport emergency contingency plans for bad weather; (2) work with air carriers to ensure that a pilot operating a (long) departure delayed-flight is permitted to return the aircraft to the terminal to allow passengers to exit the aircraft without losing the flight's departure sequence position; and (3) conduct a study of the ability of air carriers to provide for passengers' essential needs in cases of diverted flights.
