H.R. 5283 would make it easier for certain Haitian children adopted by U.S. citizens to obtain permanent U.S. residence. This legislation would affect a
  small number of children, and CBO estimates that it would have no significant effect on direct spending by the Department of Homeland Security.

  Pursuant to Public Law 111-139, Mr. Spratt hereby submits, prior to 
the vote on passage, the attached estimate of the costs of the bill 
H.R. 5532, the International Adoption Harmonization Act of 2010, as 
amended, for printing in the Congressional Record.

H.R. 5532 would raise the maximum age (from 16 to 18) for foreign children adopted by U.S. citizens to be eligible for permanent U.S. residence. CBO
  estimates that this legislation would affect very few children and would have no significant effect on direct spending by the Department of Homeland
  Security or on federal assistance programs.

  Pursuant to Public Law 111-139, Mr. Spratt hereby submits, prior to 
the vote on passage, the attached estimate of the costs of the bill 
H.R. 5566, the Prevention of Interstate Commerce in Animal Crush Videos 
Act of 2010, as amended, for printing in the Congressional Record.

H.R. 5566 would modify the current laws that prohibit the sale of certain videos or other items that depict animal cruelty. Thus, the government might
  be able to pursue cases that it otherwise would not be able to prosecute. Because those prosecuted and convicted under H.R. 5566 could be subject to
  criminal fines, the federal government might collect additional amounts if the legislation is enacted. Criminal fines are recorded as revenues,
  deposited in the Crime Victims Fund, and later spent. CBO estimates that any additional revenues and direct spending would not be significant because
  of the small number of cases likely to be affected.

  Pursuant to Public Law 111-139, Mr. Spratt hereby submits, prior to 
the vote on passage, the attached estimate of the costs of a House 
amendment to the bill S. 1749, the Cell Phone Contraband Act of 2010, 
for printing in the Congressional Record.

S. 1749 would prohibit the possession of cell Phones or similar wireless devices by federal prisoners (use of cell phones by prisoners is currently
  banned in the federal correctional system). Because the bill would establish a new crime, the government might be able to pursue cases that it
  otherwise would not be able to prosecute. Because those prosecuted and convicted under S. 1749 could be subject to criminal fines, the federal
  government might collect additional amounts if the legislation is enacted. Criminal fines are recorded as revenues, deposited in the Crime Victims
  Fund, and later spent. CBO estimates that any additional revenues and direct spending would not be significant because of the small number of cases
  likely to be affected.
