Bills Reviewed by CBO That Contained Mandates

The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) requires CBO to estimate the cost of intergovernmental and private-sector mandates in bills and joint resolutions that have been reported by authorizing committees. CBO’s statements about mandates must indicate whether the aggregate annual cost of mandates in the bill would exceed thresholds established in UMRA ($50M for intergovernmental and $100M for private-sector in 1995, adjusted annually for inflation).

This page lists individual intergovernmental mandates; filters on the left can narrow search results.
