                                 H.R.   2258
                               ADVANCE Act

   As ordered reported by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
                                on May  24, 2017


H.R. 2258 would exempt active-duty members or reservists of the armed forces from
certain testing requirements to obtain a state commercial driver's license if they have
qualifying military experience. Under current law, some veterans are exempt from such
requirements.

Under regulations proposed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
(FMCSA),  states could waive testing requirements for current and former members of the
military who regularly operate (or operated within the last year) a commercial motor
vehicle. Under current law, all states are permitted to waive testing requirements, if they so
choose, for qualified veterans, reservists, members of the National Guard, and active-duty
personnel until October 27, 2018. Based on information from FMCSA about the costs of
implementing the pending regulation, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 2258 would
have no significant additional effect on the federal budget over the 2018-2022 period.

Enacting H.R. 2258 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 2258 would not increase net
direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods
beginning in 2028.

H.R. 2258 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 Sarah Puro. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
