H.R. 3490, Strengthening State and Local Cyber Crime Fighting Act (CBO Report for Congress)

Congress 114th
Date Requested Sept. 30, 2015
Requested By House Committee on Homeland Security
Date Sent Oct. 7, 2015
Description:

H.R. 3490 would establish in the Department of Homeland Security a National Computer Forensics Institute to educate and train state and local law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and judges on matters relating to cyber and electronic crime and to share information with such personnel in the prevention and investigation of those crimes. The department is currently carrying out activities similar to those required by the bill, and CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 3490 would not significantly affect spending by DHS. Because enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

H.R. 3490 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
