Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 113th
Date Requested May 29, 2014
Requested By House Committee on Foreign Affairs
Date Sent July 3, 2014
Description:

As ordered reported by the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on May 29, 2014

H.R. 4449 would expand training for federal employees on methods of identifying and protecting victims of human trafficking. The primary federal agencies affected—the Departments of State, Homeland Security, Health and Human Services, Labor, and Justice, as well as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission—have existing programs to train employees. CBO estimates that the additional personnel who might require training and the new training required under the bill would not impose significant costs on those agencies. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would cost less than $500,000 over the 2015-2019 period; those costs would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds. Enacting the bill would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
