6. H.Res. 85 - Supporting the goals and ideals of "National MPS Day": States that the House of Representatives supports the goals and ideals of “National MPS Day.” Mucopolysaccharidoses and mucolipidoses (commonly known as `MPS disorders') are genetically determined lysosomal storage disorders that result in the inability of the body to produce certain enzymes needed to break down complex carbohydrates. In individuals with MPS disorders, complex carbohydrates are stored in virtually every cell in the body and progressively cause damage to the cells, affecting multiple systems, including the bones, heart and other internal organs, respiratory system, and central nervous system. The cellular damage caused by MPS disorders results in mental retardation, short stature, corneal damage, joint stiffness, loss of mobility, speech and hearing impairment, heart disease, hyperactivity, chronic respiratory problems, and, most importantly, drastically shortened life span.

H.R. 4979 - Local Community Recovery Act of 2006: States that in order to meet a requirement under the Stafford Act, that preference be given to local firms when soliciting for contracts for disaster relief activities.

(Current law requires, to the greatest extent possible, that contracts and awards be given to organizations, firms and individuals "residing or doing business primarily in the area affected by a disaster or emergency.")
