Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 114th
Date Requested July 29, 2015
Requested By Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs
Date Sent Aug. 11, 2015
Description:

S. 1808 would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to conduct an analysis of potential threats and security gaps along the northern border of the United States. Based on information from DHS, CBO estimates that implementing S. 1808 would cost about $1 million in 2016, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts. Because enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

S. 1808 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments.

On July 8, 2015, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 455, the Northern Border Security Review Act, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security on June 25, 2015. The two bills are similar and CBO’s estimates of the budgetary effects are the same.
