The bill S.2633 is cited as the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act. The bill is introduced as a result of testimony before various committees of the Senate and House of Representatives that indicated that fallout during the government's above-ground nuclear tests in Nevada exposed civilians who lived in the downwind affected areas in Nevada, Utah, and Arizona to radiation that generated an epidemic of cancer among these civilians. Jurisdiction and procedures for claims by individuals for injuries or death due to exposure to this radiation are the purpose of this bill. The bill was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
