H.R. 4193
Smart Savings Act
As ordered reported by House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
on March 12, 2014
H.R. 4193 would change the default investment fund in the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) for
government employees. Currently, contributions of employees who are enrolled in the
TSP, but have not specified where to invest their funds, are automatically invested in the
Government Securities Investment Fund. This bill would shift the default fund to a
Lifecycle fund with an age-appropriate asset allocation.
CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 4193 would not affect direct spending. The Joint
Committee on Taxation (JCT) estimates that there could be a small revenue effect because
enacting the bill might change the number of federal employees who choose to contribute
to the TSP, thus modifying their total tax liability. Therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures
apply. However, JCT estimates that any revenue effects would be negligible.
H.R. 4193 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal
governments.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Santiago Vallinas. This estimate was approved
by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
