A 30-page draft bill, introduced by Mr. Hart in the 96th Congress, to set minimum standards for state workers' compensation laws covering occupational diseases and death from asbestos exposure. It defines "responsible parties" (employers and asbestos product manufacturers), sets benefit levels, creates a commission to apportion liability, and makes the compensation remedy exclusive.
