Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 115th
Date Requested March 20, 2017
Requested By the U.S. House of Representatives
Date Sent March 22, 2017
Description:

H.R. 1294 would specify procedures to be followed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) if it fails to meet certain timelines or other performance parameters for its major acquisition programs. Based on information from DHS, CBO estimates that the new administrative procedures would cost less than $500,000 annually; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

Enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 1294 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 1294 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.
