                                   S. 1620
                DHS   IT Duplication  Reduction   Act of 2015

         As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security
                    and Governmental Affairs on June 24, 2015


S. 1620 would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), within 90 days of the
bill's enactment, to prepare a report for the Congress on duplicative information
technology systems in the department. DHS is currently carrying out activities similar to
those required by the bill. Thus, CBO estimates that implementing S. 1620 would not
significantly affect spending by the department. Enacting S. 1620 would not affect direct
spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

S. 1620 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.

On June 3, 2015, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 1626, the DHS IT Duplication
Reduction Act of 2015, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland
Security on May 20, 2015. The two bills are identical and CBO's estimates of budgetary
effects are the same.

The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
