                     Route  66 Centennial  Commission Act

    As ordered reported by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
                                 on June 27, 2018


H.R. 66 would establish a commission to study activities to commemorate the centennial
anniversary of Route 66 and to hold a conference on the U.S. highway system. The
commission would consist of 19 members, who would serve without pay but would be
reimbursed for travel expenses. The bill would authorize the commission to hold
hearings, hire staff, and collect information from federal agencies. The commission
would submit a final report to the Congress within five years and would terminate by
June 30, 2027. In addition, the Department of Transportation would prepare a report on
measures needed to preserve Route 66.

Based on the cost of similar commissions and reports, CBO estimates that implementing
the bill would cost about $3 million over the 2019-2023 period mostly for staff. Such
spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

Enacting H.R. 66 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 66 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget
deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

H.R. 66 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform  Act.

The CBO  staff contacts for this estimate are Matthew Pickford and Sarah Puro. This
estimate was reviewed by Theresa Gullo, Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
