The bill would

  *  Authorize appropriations for fiscal year 2021 for the Intelligence Community Management Account (ICMA)
  *  Provide 12 weeks of paid leave to employees of the intelligence community for a serious health condition
  *  Provide educational assistance to individuals and institutions of higher learning
  *  Provide whistleblowers a right of action in federal courts to seek compensatory and punitive damages
  *  Impose a private-sector mandate on campaigns for federal office by requiring them to report offers of
     contributions or election coordination from foreign entities to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the
     Federal Election Commission

Estimated  budgetary effects would primarily stem from
    Authorizing appropriations of $750 million to develop fifth-generation wireless communication technologies
    Authorizing appropriations of $683 million for the ICMA
    Providing 12 weeks of paid leave to employees of the intelligence community
    Providing educational assistance to individuals and institutions of higher learning
Areas  of significant uncertainty include
  *  Predicting the number of whistleblowers who would successfully obtain monetary awards through the judicial
     system and the amount of such awards
