PROBLEM: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Arson Prevention Act of 1994''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that_
        (1) arson is a serious and costly problem, and is responsible 
    for approximately 25 percent of all fires in the United States;
        (2) arson is a leading cause of fire deaths, accounting for 
    approximately 700 deaths annually in the United States, and is the 
    leading cause of property damage due to fire in the United States;
        (3) estimates of arson property losses are in the range of 
    $2,000,000,000 annually, or approximately 1 of every 4 dollars lost 
    to fire;
        (4) the incidence of arson in the United States is seriously 
    underreported, in part because of the lack of adequate 
    participation by local jurisdictions in the National Fire Incident 
    Reporting System (NFIRS) and the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) 
    program;
        (5) there is a need for expanded training programs for arson 
    investigators;
        (6) there is a need for improved programs designed to enable 
    volunteer firefighters to detect arson crimes and to preserve 
    evidence vital to the investigation and prosecution of arson cases;
        (7) according to the National Fire Protection Association, of 
    all the suspicious and incendiary fires estimated to occur, only 
    \1/3\ are confirmed as arson; and
        (8) improved training of arson investigators will increase the 
    ability of fire departments to identify suspicious and incendiary 
    fires, and will result in increased and more effective prosecution 
    of arson offenses.

PROBLEM: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Safe Teen and Novice Driver Uniform 
Protection Act of 2011'' or the ``STANDUP Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has 
        reported that--
                    (A) motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of 
                death of Americans between 15 and 20 years of age;
                    (B) between 1999 and 2009, more than 90,000 
                Americans were killed in motor vehicle crashes 
                involving drivers between 15 and 20 years of age, an 
                average of 155 deaths per week;
                    (C) drivers between 16 and 20 years of age have a 
                fatality rate that is 4 times higher than the rate for 
                drivers between 25 and 70 years of age; and
                    (D) teenage drivers who are 16 years of age have a 
                motor vehicle crash rate that is almost 10 times higher 
                than the crash rate for drivers between 30 and 60 years 
                of age.
            (2) The National Transportation Safety Board found that 
        during the most recent 10-year period--
                    (A) teen drivers comprised less than 7 percent of 
                the driving population and accounted for more than 13 
                percent of drivers involved in all deadly crashes; and
                    (B) more than 20 percent of all highway fatalities 
                occurred in crashes that involved teen drivers.
            (3) Analysis by the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia 
        Research Institute shows that--
                    (A) teenage drivers comprise approximately 40 
                percent of the fatalities in motor vehicle crashes in 
                which they are involved; and
                    (B) the other 60 percent of the fatalities in those 
                crashes are--
                            (i) passengers who were riding in the 
                        vehicle with the teen driver;
                            (ii) drivers and passengers in other 
                        vehicles involved in a crash with the teen 
                        driver's vehicle; and
                            (iii) pedestrians.
            (4) According to the Insurance Institute for Highway 
        Safety--
                    (A) the chance that a vehicle driven by a 16- or 
                17-year-old will be involved in an accident--
                            (i) doubles when there are 2 other teens in 
                        the vehicle; and
                            (ii) quadruples when there are 4 teens in 
                        the vehicle;
                    (B) States with strong nighttime driving 
                restrictions experience lower fatal crash rates among 
                drivers ages 15 to 17 years old; and
                    (C) a higher age requirement for licensing teen 
                drivers is correlated with a lower number of fatal 
                crashes per capita.
            (5) The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has 
        found that distraction caused by cellular phones is significant 
        enough to degrade driver performance, and is particularly 
        dangerous for inexperienced drivers between 15 and 20 years of 
        age.
            (6) That National Transportation Safety Board has found 
        that although only 20 percent of driving by teenage drivers 
        occurs at night, more than 50 percent of the motor vehicle 
        crash fatalities involving teenage drivers occur at night.
            (7) According to a 2007 report from the Texas 
        Transportation Institute at Texas A&M University--
                    (A) teenage drivers in rural areas are less likely 
                to be aware of the risks and dangers associated with 
                driving, placing them at higher risk of involvement in 
                crashes;
                    (B) teen drivers are more likely than other 
                drivers--
                            (i) to drive with other teenage passengers;
                            (ii) to drive late at night;
                            (iii) to exceed the speed limit;
                            (iv) to use cell phones while driving; and
                            (v) to fail to use seat belts while 
                        driving.
            (8) The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 
        reports that although 23 percent of the population of the 
        United States lives in rural areas, 57 percent of all traffic 
        fatalities occur on rural roads, underscoring the elevated 
        crash risk for teen drivers in rural areas.
            (9) The American Academy of Pediatrics has found evidence 
        that the area of the brain responsible for planning, impulse 
        control, and executive decisionmaking does not fully mature 
        until a person is between 20 and 25 years of age, placing teen 
        drivers at greater risk of being involved in an accident.
            (10) The Journal of the American Medical Association 
        reports that after Michigan and North Carolina adopted 
        comprehensive graduated driver licensing systems in 1997, 
        crashes involving 16-year-old drivers decreased by 25 percent 
        in Michigan and by 27 percent in North Carolina.
            (11) According to the Office of the Illinois Secretary of 
        State, teen driving deaths dropped by over 40 percent in 
        Illinois in the first full year following the 2007 
        implementation of a stronger graduated driver licensing law.
            (12) The National Transportation Safety Board reports that 
        over 40 States and the District of Columbia have implemented 
        some type of 3-stage graduated driver licensing system. 
        However, most States have not yet enacted all of the lifesaving 
        safety features of graduated driver licensing laws recommended 
        by the National Transportation Safety Board and supported by 
        research to protect the lives of teenage and novice drivers.
            (13) A 2010 national survey by the Insurance Institute of 
        Highway Safety indicates that--
                    (A) parents of teens favor graduated driver 
                licensing laws that are as strict or stricter than 
                those that currently exist in any State;
                    (B) \2/3\ of parents of teens believe that young 
                drivers should begin learning to drive at 16 years of 
                age or older;
                    (C) more than \1/2\ of parents of teens believe 
                that the minimum licensing age should be 17 years of 
                age or older;
                    (D) 90 percent of parents of teens support a 
                restriction on unsupervised nighttime driving;
                    (E) more than 75 percent of parents of teens 
                believe that the restriction on unsupervised nighttime 
                driving should begin at 10 p.m. or earlier;
                    (F) 89 percent of parents of teens support 
                restrictions on teen passengers; and
                    (G) more than 75 percent of parents of teens 
                believe that teen drivers should not be permitted to 
                more than 1 teen passenger in their vehicle.

    (a) Minimum Requirements.--
            (1) In general.--A State is in compliance with this section 
        if the State has a graduated driver licensing law that requires

                        in a nonemergency situation; and
                            (iv) remains in effect until--
                                    (I) the commencement of the 
                                intermediate stage; or
                                    (II) the driver reaches 18 years of

SOLUTION: Safe Teen and Novice Driver Uniform Protection Act of 2011 or STANDUP Act - Authorizes the Secretary of Transportation to award incentive grants to states with graduated driver licensing laws that require novice drivers younger than age 21 to comply with a two-stage licensing process before receiving an unrestricted driver's license.

Requires such laws, at a minimum, to include: (1) a learner's permit stage that commences at age 16 or older, lasts at least six months, prohibits driver use of a cellular phone or other communications device in nonemergency situations, and remains in effect until commencement of the intermediate stage or the driver attains age 18; (2) an intermediate stage in effect until the driver attains age 18 that commences immediately after expiration of the learner's permit stage, lasts at least six months, prohibits driver use of a cellular phone or other communications device in nonemergency situations, prohibits nighttime driving, prohibits more than one non-familial passenger under age 21 unless there is a licensed driver at least age 21 present in the vehicle; and (3) any other requirement that the Secretary may require.

Deems a state that meets such minimum requirements to be in compliance regardless of whether a state law, enacted before January 1, 2011, establishes a class of license that permits licensees younger than age 18 to drive a motor vehicle in connection with work performed on or for the operation of a farm owned by family members of the licensees.

Directs the Secretary to withhold a certain percentage of federal-aid highway funds from states that do not comply with the requirements of this Act.

SOLUTION:
Safe Academic Facilities and Environments for Tribal Youth Act or the SAFETY Act This bill directs the Department of the Interior to carry out a Tribal School Construction Demonstration Program to award grants to Indian tribes for the construction of replacement tribal schools. The program provides additional funding and opportunities for tribes to construct schools. Tribes on the Interior priority list for construction of tribal schools receive the highest priority for a grant under this program. This bill amends the Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities Assistance Act of 1978 to revise the grant program for construction at tribal colleges and universities. The bill eliminates the requirements for Interior to identify the need for construction and tribal colleges and universities to provide matching funds. Restrictions on grant amounts and the use of constructed facilities are removed. This bill amends the Housing Act of 1949 to authorize the Department of Agriculture to award grants to Indian tribes, tribal organizations, and tribal housing entities for the construction or renovation of housing in rural areas for educators at Indian schools and schools where at least 25% of the students are Indian. The Bureau of Indian Education and the Office of Management and Budget must develop a 10-year plan to bring up to good condition certain Bureau of Indian Education school facilities. The Government Accountability Office must report on Impact Aid for construction provided to local education agencies impacted by military dependent children and children who reside on Indian lands.
