CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE
            COST ESTIMATE


August 19, 2016


SUMMARY

H.R. 5178 would reduce the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for recipients of certain
education benefits that are administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The
bill also would increase the total amount of education benefits that are available under the
Post-9/11 GI Bill. In total, the bill would reduce net direct spending by $18 million over the
2017-2026 period, CBO estimates.

Pay-as-you-go procedures apply because enacting the legislation would affect direct
spending. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues.

CBO estimates that enacting the legislation would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

H.R. 5178 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.
