H.R. 5161
Enhance Labeling, Accessing, and Branding
of Electronic Licenses Act of 2014
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce on July 30, 2014
CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 5161 would have a negligible effect on net
discretionary costs over the 2015-2019 period. Enacting H.R. 5161 would not affect direct
spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
H.R. 5161 would direct the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to allow
manufacturers of electronic devices with a screen to display information required by the
agency digitally on the screen rather than on a label affixed to the device. On July 10, 2014,
the FCC issued guidance that describes how devices with integrated displays can present
label information electronically.
Based on information from the FCC, CBO expects that any additional actions that agency
would take to comply with the bill's requirements would not have a significant effect on
the agency's workload, and thus, its spending. In addition, the FCC is authorized to collect
fees sufficient to cover its annual appropriation; therefore, CBO estimates that
implementing H.R. 5161 would have a negligible effect on net discretionary costs,
assuming appropriation action consistent with that authority.
H.R. 5161 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 Susan Willie. The estimate was approved by
Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
