(THE CENTER SQUARE) – A bipartisan bill that would require the U.S. government to buy American flags that are made in the U.S. would have little effect on federal spending, according to a new report.
The Congressional Budget Office, a nonpartisan federal agency that produces hundreds of cost estimates for proposed legislation each year, reported the cost of implementing the All-American Flag Act would be "insignificant."
"Using information from the General Services Administration and flag vendors, CBO expects that many vendors already meet the bill's requirements," according to the agency's analysis. "CBO estimates that the costs of implementing S. 1973 would be insignificant."
