Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 115th
Date Requested March 7, 2018
Requested By House Committee on the Judiciary
Date Sent April 5, 2018
Description:

H.R. 2152 would require states and localities that receive grants from the Department of Justice (DOJ) for programs that provide pretrial services to report to DOJ about those programs. The bill also would direct DOJ to publish the data annually, including prior convictions of program participants and amounts spent on the programs.

 

Using information from DOJ, CBO estimates that implementing the bill’s provisions would cost the department less than $500,000 each year; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

 

Enacting H.R. 2152 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

 

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 2152 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

 

H.R. 2152 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
