The House received a communication from the Honorable Bill Shuster. Mr. Shuster notified the House that on April 20, 2016, pursuant to section 3307 of Title 40, United States Code, the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure met in open session to consider two resolutions included in the General Services Administration's Capital Investment and Leasing Programs. The Committee continues to work to reduce the cost of federal property and leases. The two resolutions considered for alteration projects address serious health and life safety issues and will consolidate agencies out of leased space into owned space reducing the costs to the taxpayer. The amounts authorized are consistent with existing funding. In total, these resolutions represent more than $27 million in avoided lease costs.
