            (3) chapter 22 of such Code (relating to Railroad
        Retirement Tax Act).

SEC. 4. NATIONAL COMMISSION ON TAX REFORM AND
              SIMPLIFICATION.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is overly complex,
        imposes significant burdens on individuals and businesses and
        the economy, is extremely difficult for the Internal Revenue
        Service to administer, and is in need of fundamental reform and
        simplification.
            (2) Many of the problems encountered by taxpayers in
        dealing with the Internal Revenue Service could be eliminated
        or alleviated by fundamental reform and simplification.
            (3) The Federal Government's present fiscal outlook for
        continuing and sustained budget surpluses provides a unique
        opportunity for the Congress to consider measures for
        fundamental reform and simplification of the tax laws.
            (4) Recent efforts to simplify or reform the tax laws have
        not been successful due in part to the difficulty of developing
        broad-based, nonpartisan support for proposals to make such
        changes.
            (5) Many of the problems with the Internal Revenue Service
        stem from the overly complex tax code the agency is asked to
        administer.
    (b) Establishment.--
            (1) In general.--To carry out the purposes of this section,
        there is established within the legislative branch a National
        Commission on Tax Reform and Simplification (in this section
        referred to as the ``Commission'').
            (2) Composition.--The Commission shall be composed of 15
        members, as follows:
                    (A) Three members appointed by the President, two
                from the executive branch of the Government and one
                from private life.
                    (B) Four members appointed by the majority leader
                of the Senate, one from Members of the Senate and three
                from private life.
                    (C) Two members appointed by the minority leader of
                the Senate, one from Members of the Senate and one from
                private life.
                    (D) Four members appointed by the Speaker of the
                House of Representatives, one from Members of the House
                and three from private life.
                    (E) Two members appointed by the minority leader of
                the House of Representatives, one from Members of the
                House and one from private life.
            (3) Chair.--The Commission shall elect a Chair (or two Co-
        Chairs) from among its members.
            (4) Meetings, quorums, vacancies.--After its initial
        meeting, the Commission shall meet upon the call of the Chair
(Co-Chairs, if elected) or a majority of its members. Nine members of
the Commission shall constitute a quorum. Any vacancy in the Commission
shall not affect its powers, but shall be filled in the same manner in
which the original appointment was made. Any meeting of the Commission
or any subcommittee thereof may be held in executive session to the
extent that the Chair (Co-Chairs, if elected) or a majority of the
members of the Commission or subcommittee determine appropriate.
            (5) Continuation of membership.--If--
                    (A) any individual who appointed a member to the
                Commission by virtue of holding a position described in
                paragraph (2) ceases to hold such position before the
                report of the Commission is submitted under subsection
                (g); or
                    (B) a member was appointed to the Commission as a
                Member of Congress and the member ceases to be a Member
                of Congress, or was appointed to the Commission because
                the member was not an officer or employee of any
                government and later becomes an officer or employee of
                a government,
        that member may continue as a member for not longer than the
        30-day period beginning on the date that such individual ceases
        to hold such position or such member ceases to be a Member of
        Congress or becomes such an officer or employee, as the case
        may be.
            (6) Appointment; initial meeting.--
                    (A) Appointment.--It is the sense of the Congress
                that members of the Commission should be appointed not
                more than 60 days after the date of the enactment of
                this Act.
                    (B) Initial meeting.--If, after 60 days from the
                date of the enactment of this Act, eight or more
                members of the Commission have been appointed, members
                who have been appointed may meet and select the Chair
                (or Co-Chairs) who thereafter shall have the authority
                to begin the operations of the Commission, including
                the hiring of staff.
    (c) Functions of the Commission.--
            (1) In general.--The functions of the Commission shall be--
                    (A) to conduct, for a period of not to exceed 18
                months from the date of its first meeting, the review
                described in paragraph (2); and
                    (B) to submit to the Congress a report of the
                results of such review, including recommendations for
                fundamental reform and simplification of the Internal
                Revenue Code of 1986, as described in subsection (g).
            (2) Review.--The Commission shall review--
                    (A) the present structure and provisions of the
                Internal Revenue Code of 1986, especially with respect
                to--
                            (i) its impact on the economy (including
                        the impact on savings, capital formation and
                        capital investment);
                            (ii) its impact on families and the
                        workforce (including issues relating to
                        distribution of tax burden);
                            (iii) the compliance cost to taxpayers; and

                        Service to administer such provisions;
                    (B) whether tax systems imposed under the laws of
                other countries could provide more efficient and fair
                methods of funding the revenue requirements of the
                government;
                    (C) whether the income tax should be replaced with
                a tax imposed in a different manner or on a different
                base; and
                    (D) whether the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 can
                be simplified, absent wholesale restructuring or
                replacement thereof.
    (d) Powers of the Commission.--

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Debbie Blanchard Access to Health
Care for Individuals With Disabilities Act of 2010''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

            (1) According to the Bureau of the Census, approximately 1
        in 5 people in the United States lives with some sort of
        physical disability.
            (2) More than 54,000,000 individuals in the United States
        report some level of disability and approximately 34,000,000 of
        such individuals are classified as having a severe disability.
            (3) An estimated 11,000,000 individuals aged 6 and older
        need personal assistance with everyday activities, including
        taking a bath or shower, preparing meals, and getting around
        the home.
            (4) Five percent of the United States population over age
        15 uses a wheelchair or similar device, cane, crutches, or
        walker.
            (5) The number of individuals with physical disabilities
        continues to increase, and the Centers for Disease Control and
        Prevention recently announced that the agency was revising its
        estimate of the number of individuals with spina bifida, the
        most common permanently disabling birth defect in the United
        States, from an estimated 70,000 to an estimated 166,000.
            (6) Studies have found that individuals with disabilities
        have significant difficulty in accessing routine and
        specialized health care and that numerous barriers to acquiring
        health care exist for such individuals.
            (7) Approximately 1 in 3 women with a disability reports
        being denied services at a physician's office solely because of
        her disability.
            (8) Research shows that women with disabilities are less
        likely to have pap smears and mammograms, are more likely to be
        diagnosed with breast cancer at later stages of the disease,
        are less likely to receive standard treatments, and are more
        likely to have worse outcomes.
            (9) Individuals with disabilities report that one of the
        top barriers to accessing necessary health care is the
        inability to find an accessible health care provider or
        identify providers who understand how to treat individuals with
        disabilities and who are willing to have such individuals as
        patients.
            (10) The Spina Bifida Association recently announced that
        one of its volunteers, Debbie Blanchard, a woman who lived with
        spina bifida for 55 years, died from a late stage diagnosis of
        cervical cancer stemming from her inability to find a health
        care provider in her community who had an examination table
        that would lower to the level necessary for her to comfortably
        and safely transfer from her wheelchair to the examination
        table so she could be screened for cervical cancer.
            (11) Organizations representing individuals with
        disabilities report that such individuals need more and better
        information regarding accessible health care providers in their
        communities and additional support and resources to help ensure
        that such individuals receive the care they need and deserve.

SEC. 3. PROGRAMS TO PROMOTE ACCESSIBLE HEALTH CARE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH
              DISABILITIES.
