In addition, the bill would prescribe a comprehensive process for handling complaints by whistleblowers. CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 571 would, on net, decrease costs by $36 million over the 2016-2020 period, assuming appropriation levels are reduced by those amounts. Enacting the bill would have an insignificant effect on direct spending over the 2016-2025 period; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting H.R. 571 would not affect revenues. H.R. 571 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments. ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 571 is shown in the following table.
