                                  H.R. 6742
                     Secure Border Communications Act

           As passed by the House of Representatives on September 25, 2018


 H.R. 6742 would require Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in the Department of
 Homeland Security (DHS) to equip CBP officers and border patrol agents with radios or
 similar devices that permit secure and effective communication with DHS personnel and
 with other federal and nonfederal law enforcement entities. According to CBP, it outfits
 its officers and agents with radios that largely satisfy the act's requirements, so CBO
 estimates that implementing H.R. 6742 would have no significant effect on agency
 spending.

 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. 6742 would not increase net direct spending or on-
 budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

 H.R. 6742 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
 Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.

 The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was reviewed
 by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
