CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE
           COST ESTIMATE


January 9, 2018


H.R. 4559 would direct the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), in
consultation with other federal agencies, to review security-related standards across the
global aviation system. The bill would require TSA to identify best practices for:

    Enhancing security by collaborating with foreign partners involved in aviation
      security,

     Identifying foreign entities that have not yet implemented international standards,

     Improving processes for issuing security-related directives to air carriers, and

     Assessing cyber-related threats to screening equipment.

Using information from TSA, CBO estimates that meeting the bill's requirements would
increase the agency's costs by less than $500,000 in 2018; such spending would be
subject to appropriation. Enacting H.R. 4559 would not affect direct spending or
revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 4559 would not increase net direct spending or on-
budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 4559 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Megan Carroll. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
