Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 116th
Date Requested Nov. 14, 2019
Requested By House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology
Date Sent Dec. 11, 2019
Description:
H.R. 4704 would direct the National Science Foundation (NSF) to award grants to institutions of higher education for research on the science of suicide, including prevention and treatment. Using information from the NSF, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have no significant effect on the federal budget because the agency already awards grants to study the science of suicide. In recent years, the agency has awarded a few million dollars annually for such research.
