                                   S.  1443
            Indian  Employment, Training and Related Services
                          Consolidation   Act of 2015

            As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs
                               on October 21, 2015


Under current law, a variety of federal agencies provide financial assistance to Indian
tribes for a wide range of purposes. Under the Indian Employment, Training, and Related
Services Demonstration Act and subject to approval by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA),
tribes can consolidate certain types of federal grants-particularly those that support
programs related to employment, training, and education-to implement tribal plans
related to such activities. S. 1443 would amend that act to expand the types of federal
grants that tribes could consolidate.

CBO  estimates that enacting S. 1443 would have no significant effect on the federal budget
because the legislation would not affect the overall amount of assistance provided by
federal agencies to tribes. Based on information from BIA, CBO estimates that any
increased federal costs to oversee and administer tribal plans under the bill, which would
be subject to appropriation, would not exceed $500,000 in any year.

Enacting S. 1443 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting S. 1443 would not increase net direct
spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in
2026.

S. 1443 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates  Reform Act.

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