Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.R. 1933, A Child is Missing Alert and Recovery Center Act   [open pdf - 21KB]

From the Summary: "H.R. 1933 would authorize the appropriation of $5 million for each of fiscal years 2011 through 2015 for the Department of Justice to make grants to a nonprofit agency (A Child Is Missing Alert and Recovery Center) to assist law enforcement agencies in locating missing persons. Assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO [Congressional Budget Office] estimates that implementing the act would cost $15 million over the 2011-2015 period. Enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures would not apply. H.R. 1933 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments."
