[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Adult Day Achievement Center
Enhancement Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) One in 6 people in the United States lives with a
neurological disease or condition that can often result in
disability, and which may require the individual to seek
assistance in carrying out the activities of daily living.
Neurological diseases or conditions such as multiple sclerosis
(MS), early-onset Parkinson's disease, and traumatic brain
injury (TBI) often affect younger adults in the middle of their
lives.
(2) Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling
disease that attacks the central nervous system with symptoms
ranging from numbness in limbs to paralysis and loss of vision.
Most individuals with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20
and 50. It is estimated that more than 400,000 individuals in
the United States are living with MS. Individuals living with
MS who experience more severe forms of the disease are likely
to require either home care or nursing home placement, though
the vast majority would prefer to remain at home to receive the
care they need. Where home care is concerned, approximately 80
percent of such care is provided by informal, unpaid,
caregivers who are generally family members.
(3) Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive
neurological disease. The 4 primary symptoms of Parkinson's
disease are tremor, or trembling in hands, arms, legs, jaw, and
face; rigidity, or stiffness of the limbs and trunk;
bradykinesia, or slowness of movement; and postural
instability, or impaired balance and coordination. It is
estimated that nearly 1,000,000 individuals live with
Parkinson's disease and, of those individuals, 5 to 10 percent
are diagnosed with the disease before age 60 and deemed
''early-onset''.
(4) Traumatic brain injury is a neurological condition that
typically results from a blow or jolt to the head or a
penetrating head injury and that can impact one or more parts
of the brain, thereby temporarily or permanently disrupting
normal brain function. The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention estimates that 1,400,000 new cases of TBI occur
annually, resulting in disabilities affecting up to 90,000
individuals among a broad range of age groups. Traumatic brain
injury is a serious issue that affects military service
members. Estimates in prior military conflicts, indicate that
TBI was present in 14 to 20 percent of surviving casualties.
(5) Family caregivers are a crucial source of support and
assistance for individuals suffering with disabilities. Family
caregivers, the majority of whom are women, provide an
estimated $306,000,000,000 in unpaid services annually. The
current pool of potential family caregivers is dwindling, from
11 potential caregivers for each individual needing care today
to a projected ratio of 4 potential caregivers for each such
individual by 2050.
(6) Recent studies indicate that the total estimated cost
to employers for full-time employees with intensive caregiving
responsibilities is $17,100,000,000 annually. The total
estimated cost to employers for all full-time, employed
caregivers is $33,600,000,000 annually.
(7) Adult day programs can offer services, including
medical care, rehabilitation therapies, dignified assistance
with the activities of daily living, nutrition therapy, health
monitoring, social interaction, stimulating activities, and
transportation to seniors, individuals with disabilities, and
younger adults with chronic diseases.
(8) Adult day programs geared toward individuals living
with neurological diseases or conditions such as MS,
Parkinson's disease, TBI, or other similar diseases or
conditions, provide an important response to the needs of
individuals living with these conditions and the caregivers of
such individuals. Adult day programs can help to ameliorate
symptoms, reduce dependency, provide important socialization
opportunities, and maintain quality of life.
(9) Adult day programs have been shown to provide a range
of documented benefits, including improvements in functional
status, social support, and reductions in fatigue, depression,
and pain. Adult day programs also reduce ongoing medical care
and hospital costs and decrease admissions to nursing home
facilities, which can be costly for many families, by allowing
individuals to receive health and social services while
continuing to live at home.
(10) There are currently few adult day programs focused on
younger adult populations in the United States. As a result,
the majority of individuals living with neurological diseases
are unable to access this important opportunity for maximizing
their health and wellness. Although individuals living with
neurological diseases or conditions may be able to access other
existing adult day programs, such programs are not typically
intended for younger adults living with chronic diseases or
conditions, and may not provide the appropriate services to
meet the age-related or disability status of these individuals.

SEC. 3. ESTABLISHMENT OF ADULT DAY PROGRAMS.

(a) Survey of Existing Adult Day Programs.--
(1) In general.--Not later than 90 days after the date of

SEC. 5. DEFINITIONS.

In this Act:
(1) The term ''Administrator'' means the Administrator of
the Environmental Protection Agency.
(2) The term ''Secretary'' means the Secretary of Energy.
[EX A]:
Boutique Fuels Reduction Act of 2005 - Amends the Clean Air Act (CAA) to authorize the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to temporarily waive controls or prohibitions on the use of a fuel or fuel additive regulated under specified provisions of that Act or prescribed in an applicable State Implementation Plan (SIP) if the Administrator determines that: (1) extreme and unusual circumstances exist in a State or region that prevent distribution of an adequate supply of the fuel or fuel additive to consumers; (2) such circumstances are the result of a natural disaster, an Act of God, a pipeline or refinery equipment failure, or another unforeseeable event; and (3) it is in the public interest to grant the waiver. Permits such a waiver only if specified requirements are met.

States that the Administrator shall have no authority, when considering a SIP or SIP revision regarding State controls or prohibitions on motor vehicle fuel or fuel additives, to approve any fuel: (1) if doing so would increase the total number of approved and fully implemented fuels as of September 1, 2004, in all SIPs; and (2) unless that fuel was approved and fully implemented in at least one SIP in the applicable Petroleum Administration for Defense District (with the exception of fuels with a specified summertime Reid Vapor Pressure).

Requires the Administrator and the Secretary of Energy jointly to study and report to Congress on the effects of SIPs adopted pursuant to CAA provisions regarding State controls or prohibitions on motor vehicle fuel or fuel additives.
