H.R. 2643
State Licensing Efficiency Act of 2015
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Financial Services
on July 29, 2015
H.R. 2643 would change the process used by state regulators to request that the
Department of Justice (DOJ) conduct criminal history checks on certain providers of
financial services. CBO expects those changes would reduce the number of duplicative
requests for criminal history checks. DOJ collects a fee of about $20 for this service (which
is treated as an offset to discretionary spending) and the department spends those
collections mostly in the same year. Thus, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would
not have a significant net effect on spending for DOJ.
Based on information from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), CBO
expects that enacting H.R. 2643 would not significantly affect the agency's workload
because no additional rulemaking action would be required. The CFPB is permanently
authorized to spend amounts transferred from the Federal Reserve System; therefore, any
changes in spending by the agency would be recorded in the budget as direct spending.
Because the bill could affect direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures would apply;
however, we estimate that any such effects would be negligible. Enacting H.R. 2643 would
not affect revenues.
H.R. 2643 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal
governments.
The CBO staff contacts for this estimate are Mark Grabowicz and Susan Willie. The
estimate was approved by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget
Analysis.
