S. 2239
Veterans Skills to Jobs Act
As passed by the United States Senate on June 29, 2012
S. 2239 would allow federal agencies to consider certain types of military training to be
sufficient to satisfy training or certification requirements that an individual may need to
obtain a federal license. Examples of such licenses include positions in the aviation and
maritime industries. Information from the Department of Transportation indicates that
this legislation would expand the department's current programs to assist veterans but
would not significantly change its workload. Thus, CBO estimates that implementing
S. 2239 would have no significant effect on the federal budget. Enacting the legislation
would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not
apply.
S. 2239 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.
On July 2, 2012, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 4155, the Veterans Skills to
Jobs Act, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government
Reform on June 27, 2012. The two pieces of legislation are similar, and the CBO cost
estimates are the same.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Matthew Pickford. The estimate was approved
by Peter H. Fontaine, Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
