H.R. 158, Visa Waiver Program Improvement Act of 2015 1 (July 21, 2015)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo2422 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE July 21, 2015 H.R. 158 Visa Waiver Program Improvement Act of 2015 As ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security on June 25, 2015 H.R. 158 would make administrative changes to the visa waiver program, under which citizens of certain countries may visit the United States temporarily without a visa, and would require the Department of Homeland Security to prepare several reports to the Congress on national security issues affected by the visa waiver program. Based on the costs of similar reports, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 158 would cost about $1 million in 2016 and less than $500,000 annually thereafter, assuming appropriation of the necessary funds. Because enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. H.R. 158 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was approved by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
