S. 4611 would authorize the appropriation of $800,000 annually to provide outreach and training for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) staff who have been exposed to trauma from working with victims of human trafficking. The bill also would authorize the appropriation of $25 million annually for a victim assistance program within ICE. CBO estimates that enacting S. 4611 would not affect direct spending or revenues. CBO has not estimated the discretionary costs of implementing the bill because based on information from the agency, we are not sure how much of the authorized amounts would be spent. The bill contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
