Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: S. 2964, War Risk Insurance Extension Act of 2019
This is the Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate as ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation on December 11, 2019. From the Document: "S. 2964 would reauthorize the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA's) Aviation War Risk Insurance Program through December 31, 2020. The program provides free insurance to certain air carriers engaged in operations that are deemed essential to the foreign policy or national security interests of the United States. Under current law, the FAA is authorized to issue such insurance through September 30, 2023. Because the insurance may be offered under current law through December 31, 2020, CBO [Congressional Budget Office] estimates that implementing S. 2964 would have no effect on the federal budget."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.R. 3830, Taxpayers Right-To-Know Act
This is the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) Cost Estimate as ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on December 19, 2019. From the Document: "H.R. 3830 would change how information about federal programs is provided online. The legislation would require that specific information about each program administered by a federal agency be available to the public on a website operated by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). That information would include: [1] Expenditure data for three fiscal years, [2] Any performance reviews of the program, [3] Statutes authorizing the program, [4] Major regulations related to the program, and [5] Any federal assistance provided by the program. [...] At the conclusion of the pilot program, CBO estimates that it would cost $8 million over the 2023-2024 period for administrative expenses to develop a website that links all federal programs to existing online information, including such sites as USASpending.gov, Acquisition.gov, Grants.gov, DisasterAssistance.gov, and Regulations.gov. [...] If OMB determined that significant additional data needed to be collected from agencies to develop the proposed website, the cost to implement H.R. 3830 would be larger."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: S. 2660, Wind Energy Research and Development Act of 2019

For this estimate, CBO [Congressional Budget Office] assumes S. 2660 will be enacted near the end of 2020. Based on historical spending patterns for similar activities, and assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts starting in 2021, CBO estimates that implementing S. 2660 would cost $282 million over the 2021-2024 period and $198 million after 2024."

CBO estimates that implementing S. 389 would have an insignificant cost over the 2020-2024 period; any spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.R. 4753, the Drone Origin Security Enhancement Act
This is the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) Cost Estimate as ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security on November 19, 2019. From the Document: "H.R. 4753 would prohibit the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from operating, financing, or entering into or renewing a contract for unmanned aircraft systems (drones) that are manufactured in certain foreign countries or by certain companies, and other specific requirements. The bill would allow DHS to waive the prohibition on a case-by-case basis, subject to the approval of the Congressional homeland security committees. DHS's current operations are generally consistent with the bill's requirements, and any changes required under the bill would not require substantial action by the department. Thus, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would not have a significant cost; any spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds."

CBO Paper: The Foreign-Born Population and Its Effects on the U.S. Economy and the Federal Budget--An Overview
From the Document: "About 47 million people living in the United States in 2018 were born in other countries. Roughly three-quarters of those people were here legally. They included naturalized citizens, lawful permanent residents (who are also known as green-card holders), refugees, people who were granted asylum, and people who were temporarily admitted for a specific purpose, such as extended work or study. (The people accounted for in this document do not include visitors for business or pleasure.) The remaining one-quarter, or about 11 million people, were here illegally, having either remained here when their temporary legal status expired or crossed the border illegally. For more than a decade, the number of people remaining when their temporary status expired has exceeded the number crossing the border illegally, mostly because the number of illegal border crossings has declined."

Congressional Budget Office: Final Sequestration Report for Fiscal Year 2020
From the Document: "After a session of Congress ends, the Congressional Budget Office [CBO] is required to issue a report that provides estimates of the limits (often called caps) on discretionary budget authority that are in effect through 2021. CBO also must report whether, according to its estimates, enacted legislation for the current fiscal year has exceeded the caps and thus would trigger a cancellation of budgetary resources, known as a sequestration. In CBO's estimation, a sequestration will not be required for 2020. However, the authority to make that determination--and, if so, how to cut budget authority--rests with the Administration's Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Those determinations are based on OMB's own estimates of federal spending."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.R. 3642, Improving Credit Reporting for All Consumers Act
This is the Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate as ordered reported by the House Committee on Financial Services on July 11, 2019. From the Document: "H.R. 3642 would amend the Fair Credit Reporting Act to require consumer reporting agencies (CRAs) to adhere to new processes to resolve disputes and protect consumers. Title 1 would change how consumers dispute aspects of their credit file held by a CRA and would require CRAs and entities that furnish information to CRAs to hire and maintain sufficiently trained staff to handle such disputes. The bill would authorize consumers to appeal, free of charge, the results of a dispute reinvestigation by a CRA or a dispute investigation by an entity that furnishes information for their credit file. H.R. 3642 would require consumer information held by a CRA to be accurate, complete, and verifiable; consumers would be able to dispute the validity of their file on each of those grounds. Any entities that repeatedly provide inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information to CRAs would be subject to corrective action by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.J. Res. 79, A Joint Resolution Removing the Deadline for the Ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment
This is the Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate as ordered reported by the House Committee on the Judiciary on November 13, 2019. From the Document: "In 1972, the 92nd Congress passed H.J. Res. 208, which proposed an amendment to the Constitution providing that equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the federal government or by states on the basis of sex (known as the equal rights amendment). That resolution contained a seven-year deadline--later extended to 1982--by which three-quarters of the states could vote to ratify the amendment. H.J. Res. 79 would permanently reopen the ratification process for the amendment by eliminating the deadline. By itself, CBO [Congressional Budget Office] estimates that the resolution would have no effect on the federal budget. If the states approve the proposed amendment, it could potentially affect the federal budget; however, CBO has not analyzed those effects."
