Black Lung Benefits Act of 1973 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Black Lung Benefits Act of 1973 The Black Lung Benefits Act (BLBA) is a U.S. federal law which provides monthly payments and medical benefits to coal miners totally disabled from pneumoconiosis (black lung disease) arising from employment in or around the nation's coal mines. The law also provides monthly benefits to a miner's dependent survivors if pneumoconiosis caused or hastened the miner's death. ==History==
In 1952, Alabama became the first state to provide compensation for coal workers' pneumoconiosis.〔(Black Lung ) - United Mine Workers of America〕 In 1969, the United Mine Workers convinced the United States Congress to enact the landmark Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act which provided compensation for miners suffering from Black Lung Disease. Arnold Miller (1923–1985) a miner and long time labor activist played a big role in the struggle for this legislation.
