H.R. 6104 would establish the Federal Internship and Fellowship Center in the Office of Personnel Management to improve the process to attract, hire, and retain interns and fellows in federal agencies. The bill would require federal agencies to appoint coordinators to assist interns and fellows, establish mentor programs, and prepare progress reports. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 6104 would have an insignificant effect on direct spending and no effect on revenues over the 2023-2032 period. CBO has not estimated the discretionary costs of implementing the bill. The bill contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
