                                 H.R.   1372
                    Homeland Security for Children Act

         As ordered reported by the House Committee on Homeland Security
                                on March 8, 2017


H.R. 1372 would require the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to identify
and integrate children's needs when preparing for, responding to, recovering from, and
mitigating against natural disasters, acts of terrorism, and other manmade disasters. The
bill would authorize FEMA to appoint a technical expert on children's needs to coordinate
the integration of the bill's requirements. The bill also would direct the Department of
Homeland  Security (DHS) to submit to the Congress an annual report describing the
agency's efforts to integrate children's needs into DHS polices.

Based on information provided by DHS, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would
have no significant effect on the federal budget. Enacting the legislation would not affect
direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 1372 would not increase net direct spending or
on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 1372 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 Robert Reese. The estimate was approved by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
