H.R. 2996
Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act of 2014
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology
on July 25, 2014
SUMMARY
H.R. 2996 would establish the Network for Manufacturing Innovation Program (NMIP)
within the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Under the program,
NIST would award grants to establish a network of centers of innovation to improve the
competitiveness of domestic manufacturers. H.R. 2996 also would reauthorize a program
to develop regional clusters of businesses that operate in similar or complementary
industries. Finally, the bill would require the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to
assess the NMIP every two years and direct NIST to develop a strategic plan for advanced
manufacturing that would be updated every four years.
CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 2996 would cost $105 million over the 2015-2019
period, assuming appropriation actions consistent with the bill. Enacting H.R. 2996 also
would affect direct spending; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. CBO estimates,
however, that such effects would be insignificant. Enacting H.R. 2996 would not affect
revenues.
H.R. 2996 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA), and any costs to state, local, or tribal
governments, including matching funds, would be incurred as conditions of receiving
federal assistance.
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 2996 is shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget functions 370 (commerce and housing credit) and 450
(community development).
