handle is hein.congrec/cbo11261 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE August 15, 2013 SUMMARY H.R. 813 would authorize appropriations in advance for certain programs within the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and eliminate performance awards for senior executive staff at that agency. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have a net cost of $21 billion over the 2014-2018 period, assuming appropriations action consistent with the bill. Enacting H.R. 813 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you go procedures do not apply. H.R. 813 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA). ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 813 is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget functions 700 (veterans benefits and services) and 800 (general government). BASIS OF ESTIMATE For this estimate, CBO assumes the legislation will be enacted in fiscal year 2014, that the necessary amounts will be appropriated for each year, and that outlays will follow historical spending patterns for similar and existing programs. H.R. 813 Putting Veterans Funding First Act of 2013 As ordered reported by the House Committee on Veterans'Affairs on August1, 2013
