SUMMARY

S. 1094 would modify administrative and personnel procedures of the Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) and reorganize the Office of Accountability and Whistleblower
Protection. CBO estimates that implementing S. 1094 would increase costs by $3 million
over the 2018-2022 period; such spending would be subject to the availability of
appropriated funds.

Enacting the bill would affect direct spending over the 2017-2027 period; therefore,
pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, CBO estimates those effects would not be
significant. Enacting S. 1094 would not affect revenues.

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

S. 1094 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.

The estimated budgetary effects of S. 1094 are shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget function 700 (veterans benefits and services).
