H.R. 5663 would revise the membership of the Aviation Consumer Protection Advisory Committee to include ticket agents. The committee evaluates consumer protection programs for air passengers and provides recommendations to the Department of Transportation for the improvement of such programs. Under current law, the committee members serve without pay but are compensated for travel expenses.

Based on the costs of the committee, CBO estimates that adding an additional member would cost less than $500,000 over the 2026-2030 period. Any related spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Emma Uebelhor. The estimate was reviewed by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Director of Budget Analysis.
