On May 9 and May 17, 2018, the House Committee on Energy and Commerce ordered 59 bills to be reported related to the nation’s response to the opioid epidemic. Because of the large number of related bills ordered reported by the Committee, CBO is publishing a single comprehensive document that includes estimates for each piece of legislation.
H.R. 4284, Indexing Narcotics, Fentanyl, and Opioids Act of 2017, would increase authorization levels, but CBO has not completed estimates of amounts. All authorizations would be subject to future appropriation action.
