S. 3340, Mental Health Access to Continued Care and Enhancement of Support Services Act of 2012cost estimate
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs on September 12, 2012 S. 3340 would extend mental health services offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to family members of active-duty servicemembers, enhance programs for homeless veterans, and make other changes to veterans’ health care, compensation and burial benefits. In total, CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have a discretionary cost of $310 million over the 2013-2017 period, assuming appropriation of the specified and estimated amounts.      S.1910, Domestic Partnership Benefits and Obligations Act of 2011cost estimate
As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs on May 16, 2012 S. 1910 would make same-sex domestic partners of certain federal employees (including certain employees of the District of Columbia who were first employed by the District before October 1, 1987) eligible to receive the same employment benefits as married spouses of federal employees. Benefits that would affect the federal budget include health insurance, survivor annuities, compensation for work-related injuries, and travel and relocation benefits. H.R. 4194, a bill to amend the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act to provide that Alexander Creek, Alaska, is and shall be recognized as an eligible Native village under that Act, and for other purposescost estimate
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources on August 1, 2012 CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 4194 would cost $30 million over the 2013-2022 period. Because those costs would increase direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the legislation would not affect revenues or spending subject to appropriation. |
