H.R. 4405 would authorize the appropriation of $31.5 million each year through 2023 for the
Women Business Centers program, administered by the Small Business Administration. That
program distributes grants to centers that provide counseling and training to women-owned
businesses. In 2019, $18.5 million was allocated for those purposes. H.R. 4405 would
expand eligibility, raise the grant maximum, and permit grantees to use funds to cover the
costs of soliciting nonfederal matching dollars.
Assuming appropriation of the authorized amounts, and based on historical spending
patterns, CBO estimates that implementing the program would cost $101 million over the
2020-2024 period. The costs of the legislation, detailed in Table 1, fall within budget
function 370 (commerce and housing credit).
