H.R. 2589 would direct the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to manage and provide
guidance for the use of intelligence throughout the department. DHS is currently carrying out
activities similar to those required by the act. Any new activities required under the
legislation would not require substantial action by the department. The act also would require
the Government Accountability Office to report on how the intelligence policies and
standards are implemented throughout the department. In total, CBO estimates that over the
2021-2025  period implementing H.R. 2589 would cost less than $500,000; any spending
would be subject to the availability of appropriated funds.

On May  22, 2019, CBO  transmitted a cost estimate for H.R. 2589, the Unifying DHS
Intelligence Enterprise Act, as ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland
Security on May 15, 2019. The two versions of the legislation are similar, and CBO's
estimates of their budgetary effects are the same.

The CBO   staff contact for this estimate is Madeleine Fox. The estimate was reviewed by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Director of Budget Analysis.
