STATEMENT OF ADMINISTRATION POLICY
(THIS STATEMENT HAS BEEN COORDINATED BY OMB WITH THE CONCERNED AGENCIES.)

May 8, 1998 (Senate)

S. 1618 - Protection of Consumers Against "Slamming" (McCain (R) Arizona and 18 cosponsors)

The Administration supports Senate passage of S. 1618. Pay-As-You-Go Scoring S. 1618 would affect receipts; therefore, it is subject to the pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) requirements of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. OMB's preliminary PAYGO estimate is that the net effect of S. 1618 on the deficit would be negligible.
