Speaker. I was reminded of some testimony I gave before the Rules Committee in the last Congress concerning the predecessor of this legislation and took a look at what I said at that time in the testimony. I said. "I am sure." speaking to the Rules Committee. "That you will hear. if you have not already. testimony about the cost impact of specific acts of Congress. like section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. which will result in significant costs to State and local governments. particularly those with older subway systems where barrierfree retrofits will be very expensive." Another obvious example would be the Refugee Act of 1980. that is. to the extent that it reflects this Nations refugee policy. Another example would be the Clean Air Act. its impact especially on those States which have to set up inspection and maintenance programs for motor vehicles. Certainly there are other examples.
