H.R. 4194
Government Reports Elimination Act of 2014
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
on March 12, 2014, with a subsequent amendment in the nature of a substitute
provided on April 21, 2014
H.R. 4194 would eliminate requirements for 18 federal entities to prepare specific reports
for the Congress. Based on information from the Office of Management and Budget and
some affected agencies, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would reduce costs that
are subject to appropriation by about $1 million over the next five years. Enacting
H.R. 4194 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply.
H.R. 4194 would eliminate the requirement to prepare 85 reports that are produced by
numerous federal agencies, including: the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce,
Defense, Education, Energy, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development,
Interior, Labor, State, Transportation, Treasury, and Veterans Affairs, and the Corporation
for National and Community Service, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Executive
Office of the President, the Government Accountability Office, and the Office of the
Director of National Intelligence. By reducing the number of reports that must be prepared
and printed, implementing H.R. 4194 would reduce the administrative costs of those
agencies.
The bill contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local or tribal
governments.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Matthew Pickford. The estimate was approved
by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
