H.R. 95, Veterans' Access to Child Care Act 1 (July 24, 2017)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo3724 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE July 24, 2017 H.R. 95 Veterans' Access to Child Care Act As ordered reported by the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs on July 19, 2017 SUMMARY H.R. 95 would extend the current limitation on pensions for certain veterans using Medicaid and increase the fees charged to veterans who obtain loans guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This bill also would require VA to provide assistance for child care (through subsidies, on-site services, or direct payments to service providers) to veterans receiving mental health care at a VA medical facility. CBO estimates that enacting the bill would decrease direct spending by $635 million over the 2017-2027 period. CBO also estimates that implementing the bill would cost $96 million over the 2017-2022 period, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts. Because enacting the bill would affect direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 95 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028. H.R. 95 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. ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary effects of H.R. 95 are shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget functions 700 (veterans benefits and services) and 550 (health).
