H.R. 863, Commission to Study the Potential Creation of a National Womens History Museum Act of 2013 1 (April 9, 2014)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo1552 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE April 9, 2014 H.R. 863 Commission to Study the Potential Creation of a National Women's History Museum Act of 2013 As ordered reported by the Committee on House Administration on April 2, 2013 CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 863 would have no significant effect on the federal budget. The legislation would affect direct spending because it would authorize the commission to accept and spend monetary gifts. Therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, CBO estimates that the net effect on direct spending would be insignificant. Enacting H.R. 863 would not affect revenues. H.R. 863 would establish a commission to prepare a report containing recommendations for establishing and maintaining a National Women's History Museum in Washington, D.C. The 8-member commission would have 18 months to produce the report and submit it to the Congress. All commission members would serve without pay but would be reimbursed for travel expenses. In addition, the commission would be authorized to hire staff and, while no federal employees could be detailed to the commission, federal agencies could provide technical support. Finally, the bill would prohibit federal funds from being used for commission expenses; it would have to rely on gifts and contributions to cover those costs. H.R. 863 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 Matthew Pickford. The estimate was approved by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
