CBO Paper: Reauthorizing Federal Highway Programs: Issues and Options
From the Document: "In 2019, federal spending for highways totaled $46 billion. Such spending is funded primarily by revenues credited to the Highway Trust Fund, which have fallen short of spending from the fund for more than a decade. If the taxes that are credited to the trust fund were continued at their current rates and funding for highway and transit programs increased annually at the rate of inflation, by 2030, the cumulative shortfall in the trust fund would reach $189 billion, according to the Congressional Budget Office's [CBO] latest baseline projections. (Those projections were prepared in March 2020, before the current public health emergency caused by the coronavirus began. The net effect that the crisis will have on that shortfall is unclear.) In this report, CBO discusses choices about revenues and spending that lawmakers face in addressing that shortfall and improving the nation's infrastructure; the agency also analyzes options for subsidizing state and local governments' financing of highway projects."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.R. 2816, Vietnam-Era Veterans Hepatitis C Testing Enhancement Act of 2019
This is the Congressional Budget Office Cost (CBO) Estimate as ordered reported by the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs on March 12, 2020. From the Document: "H.R. 2816 would require the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to conduct a one-year pilot program to test veterans who served during the Vietnam era for the hepatitis C virus, regardless of whether those veterans are enrolled in the VA health care system. According to VA, there were about 6 million living veterans in 2019 who served during the Vietnam era (between February 28, 1961, and May 7, 1975). CBO estimates that implementing the bill would increase spending for VA health care by $8 million over the 2020-2025 period; such spending would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds. The bill also would increase direct spending for Medicare by $16 million over the 2020-2030 period, CBO estimates."

Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate: H.R. 1611, Robert Levinson Hostage Recovery and Hostage-Taking Accountability Act
This is the Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate as ordered reported by the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on March 4, 2020.

The bill also would require the Department of State to review the cases of U.S. nationals who have been detained overseas, determine whether those nationals are being illegally or improperly held, and report annually to the Congress on those determinations. Finally, the department would be required to develop guidance and disseminate information to government officials and to family members of hostages and detainees on the resources that are available to obtain information about, access to, or the release of those people. CBO [Congressional Budget Office] estimates that enacting H.R. 1611 would have insignificant effects on the federal budget and would, on net, reduce the deficit by insignificant amounts over the 2020-2030 period."

Such a council has been operating under Executive Order 13747 since November 2016. Thus, CBO [Congressional Budget Office] estimates implementing that provision would not increase costs because the bill codifies current practice."
