S. 2840, POLICE Act of 2016 1 (May 18, 2016)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo2970 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE May18, 2016 S. 2840 POLICE Act of 2016 As reported by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on May 12, 2016 Under the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) program, the Department of Justice makes grants to state, local, and tribal governments and other entities. Recipients of the grants may use the funds for hiring law enforcement officers, providing equipment and training for those personnel, and for more than a dozen other related activities. (For fiscal year 2016, the Congress appropriated about $200 million for this program.) S. 2840 would specifically permit grant recipients to use funds to train officers to respond to active shooters. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have no budgetary effect because it would not affect amounts authorized to be appropriated for the program. Enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. CBO estimates that enacting S. 2840 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027. S. 2840 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and any costs incurred would result from participation in a voluntary federal program. The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was approved by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
