                                  H.R. 68
     Juvenile Accountability Block Grant Program Reauthorization
                                 Act of 2016

    As ordered reported by the House Committee on the Judiciary on July 13, 2016


SUMMARY

H.R. 68 would authorize the appropriation of $25 million annually over the 2018-2022
period for the Department of Justice (DOJ) to make grants to state and local governments
for programs to strengthen the juvenile justice system, including programs to combat
bullying in schools.

Assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, CBO estimates that implementing
H.R. 68 would cost $50 million over the 2017-2021 period. Pay-as-you-go procedures do
not apply to this legislation because enacting it would not affect direct spending or
revenues.

CBO estimates that enacting the legislation would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027.

H.R. 68 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA); any costs to state, local, or tribal governments
would result from complying with conditions of federal assistance.


ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 68 is shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget function 750 (administration of justice).


BASIS OF ESTIMATE

CBO assumes that the authorized amounts will be appropriated near the start of each fiscal
year and that outlays will follow the historical rate of spending for similar activities. The
Congress did not provide any funds for this program in 2016.
