 Mr. Shuster, from the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, 
                        submitted the following

                              R E P O R T

                        [To accompany H.R. 965]

      [Including cost estimate of the Congressional Budget Office]

    The Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, to whom 
was referred the bill (H.R. 965) to designate the Federal 
building located at 600 Martin Luther King, Jr. Place in 
Louisville, Kentucky, as the ``Romano L. Mazzoli Federal 
Building'', having considered the same, report favorably 
thereon without amendment and recommend that the bill do pass.
    Romano L. Mazzoli was born in Louisville, Kentucky on 
November 2, 1932. He attended grade school in Louisville, 
Kentucky and graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 
1954. From 1954 to 1956, he served in the Army. In 1960, he 
graduated from the University of Louisville Law School. Romano 
Mazzoli was admitted to the Kentucky bar in 1960, and began 
practicing law in Louisville. In 1967, he was elected to the 
Kentucky Senate where he served from 1968 to 1970. In 1970, he 
was elected to the United States House of Representatives. The 
people of Kentucky's Third Congressional District sent him back 
to Congress in eleven subsequent elections, where he served 
from 1970 to his retirement in 1994. Mr. Mazzoli built a strong 
reputation as one of the most dedicated, ethical, and 
courageous Members ever to serve in Congress.
    Mr. Mazzoli may be best known for his work on immigration 
issues. He also was active on issues involving campaign finance 
reform, smoking in public places, and cigarette advertising. 
Naming the Federal building in Louisville, Kentucky would be a 
fitting tribute to this distinguished former Member of 
Congress.

                        COMPLIANCE WITH RULE XI

    With respect to the requirements of clause 2(l)(3) of rule 
XI of the Rules of the House of Representatives:
    (1) The Committee held hearings on this legislation on June 
15, 1995.
    (2) The requirements of section 308(a)(1) of the 
Congressional Budget Act of 1974 are not applicable to this 
legislation since it does not provide new budget authority or 
new or increased tax expenditures.
    (3) The Committee has received no report from the Committee 
on Government Reform and Oversight of oversight findings and 
recommendations arrived at under clause 4(C)(2) of rule X of

Congressional Budget Office was received by the Committee. The 
report follows:

                                     U.S. Congress,
                               Congressional Budget Office,
                                 Washington, DC, November 20, 1995.
Hon. Bud Shuster,
Chairman, Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, House of 
        Representatives, Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Chairman: The Congressional Budget Office has 
reviewed H.R. 965, a bill to designate the federal building 
located at 600 Martin Luther King, Jr. Place in Louisville, 
Kentucky, as the ``Romano L. Mazzoli Federal Building.'' The 
bill was ordered reported by the House Committee on 
Transportation and Infrastructure on November 16, 1995.
    We estimate that enacting this bill would result in no 
significant cost to the federal government and in no cost to 
state or local governments. The bill would not affect direct 
spending or receipts. Therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures would 
not apply.
    If you wish further details on this estimate, we will be 
pleased to provide them. The CBO staff contact is John R. 
Righter.
            Sincerely,
                                              James L. Blum
                                   (For June E. O'Neill, Director).

                     inflationary impact statement

    Under (2)(l)(4) of rule XI of the Rules of the House of 
Representatives, the Committee on Transportation and 
Infrastructure estimates that enactment of H.R. 965 will have 
no significant inflationary impact on prices and costs in the 
operation of the national economy.

                          cost of legislation

    Clause 7(a) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of 
Representatives requires a statement of the estimated cost to 
the United States which will be incurred in carrying out H.R. 
965, as reported, in fiscal year 1996, and each of the 
following 5 years. Implementation of this legislation is not 
expected to result in any increased costs to the United States.

                       committee action and vote

    In compliance with clause (2)(l)(2) (A) and (B) of rule XI 
of the Rules of the House of Representatives, at a meeting of 
the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure on November 
16, 1995, a quorum being present, H.R. 965 was unanimously 
approved by a voice vote and ordered reported.
