Brain Injury:
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) legislation, and the TBI Act (Public Law 104-166) can be found at  http://thomas.loc.gov. Click on Public Laws By Law Number 93rd -107th. Then click on Select Congress: "104," scroll down and click on House Bills.  Thomas.loc is the web site for Congress including the Congressional Budget Office and General Accounting Office, etc.  The site, http://thomas.loc.gov, was named after Thomas Jefferson.  The "loc"  stands for Library of Congress, so there's a lot of good stuff available on it.  Pulling down the Committee Report to the Act (from the 104th Congress) is useful for gaining insights into Congress' intentions for the law.
