S. 2646
Runaway and Homeless Youth and Trafficking Prevention Act
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary
on September 18, 2014
S. 2646 would authorize the appropriation of $168 million for each year from 2015 through
2019 for programs that provide services to runaway and homeless youth. CBO estimates
that implementing the bill would cost $20 million in 2015 and $668 million over the
2015-2019 period, assuming the appropriation of the necessary amounts.
Enacting the bill would affect direct spending and revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go
procedures apply. However, CBO estimates that the net effect on the deficit of those
changes would be insignificant.
S. 2646 would expand an existing intergovernmental mandate, as defined in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act (UMRA), that requires state and local law enforcement agencies to
share and update information about missing persons under the age of 21. CBO estimates
that the costs for those agencies to comply with the additional reporting requirements
would be small and well below the annual threshold for intergovernmental mandates
established in UMRA ($76 million in 2014, adjusted annually for inflation). The bill
contains no private-sector mandates as defined in UMRA.
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary effects of S. 2646 are shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget functions 500 (education, training, employment, and
social services) and 750 (administration of justice).
