           Federal Aviation Administration Veteran Transition
                          Improvement Act of 2016

   As ordered reported by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
                              on September 14, 2016


Under current law, the personnel management system of the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) is exempt from many of the requirements of Title V of the United
States Code, which governs the organization and personnel policies of most federal civilian
agencies. H.R. 5957 would require the FAA to adopt policies, specified in Title V, related
to the use of medical leave by certain disabled veterans.

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 5957 would not affect the federal budget. According to
the FAA, the agency is already in the process of updating its personnel policies to provide
medical leave benefits for disabled veterans that are consistent with the provisions of
Title V. As a result, CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 5957 would have no further effect
on the agency' s personnel policies or federal spending for the compensation and benefits of
FAA employees, which is subject to appropriation. H.R. 5957 would not affect direct
spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 5957 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

H.R. 5957 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal
governments.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Megan Carroll. The estimate was approved by
Theresa Gullo, Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
