H.R. 1300, First Responder Anthrax Preparedness Act [i] (June 24, 2015)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo2335 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE June 24, 2015 H.R. 1300 First Responder Anthrax Preparedness Act As ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security on May 20, 2015 H.R. 1300 would direct the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in consultation with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), to provide anthrax vaccines from the Strategic National Stockpile to first responders who volunteer to receive them. Under the bill, DHS would establish a tracking system for the vaccine and would provide educational outreach for the program. The bill would direct DHS, in coordination with HHS, to establish a pilot program in at least two states to begin providing the vaccine. Based on information provided by DHS and HHS, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 1300 would cost about $4 million over the 2016-2020 period, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts. Enacting H.R. 1300 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. H.R. 1300 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. The CBO staff contacts for this estimate are Martin von Gnechten (for the Department of Homeland Security) and Rebecca Yip (for the Department of Health and Human Services). The estimate was approved by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
