S. 2250
Travel Promotion, Enhancement, and Modernization Act of 2014
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation
on July 23, 2014
SUMMARY
S. 2250 would extend the provisions of the Travel Promotion Act of 2009 (Public Law
111-145), which established the Corporation for Travel Promotion (also known as
Brand USA), through September 30, 2020, and impose new performance and procurement
requirements on the corporation. The bill also would extend the authority of U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) to collect travel promotion fees from certain foreign
individuals traveling to the United States. Those fees are used to partially fund Brand USA.
CBO estimates that enacting S. 2250 would increase direct spending by $467 million and
revenues by $731 million over the 2015-2024 period, resulting in a net decrease in the
deficit of $264 million over the 10-year period. Pay-as-you-go procedures apply because
enacting the legislation would affect direct spending and revenues.
CBO estimates that implementing S. 2250 would not significantly affect discretionary
spending.
S. 2250 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or
tribal governments.
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary effect of 5. 2250 is shown in the following table. The costs of this
legislation fall within budget function 370 (commerce and housing credit).
