                                 H.R.  3503
    Department of   Homeland Security Support to Fusion Centers Act
                                   of 2015

         As ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security
                             on September 30, 2015


H.R. 3503 would direct the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to evaluate the
effectiveness of information systems and the deployment of department personnel at fusion
centers, which are supported by DHS and facilitate information sharing among federal,
state, and local authorities. The bill also would require the department to establish a
program to provide access to certain classified information for state and local personnel at
fusion centers. Based on information from DHS, CBO estimates that implementing
H.R. 3503 would cost about $1 million in fiscal year 2016, assuming appropriation of the
necessary amounts.

Because enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues,
pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 3503 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2026.

H.R. 3503 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.

The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
