Definition of Congressional Budget Office
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is an office in the legislative branch of the federal government. Its main responsibilities include:
- Forecasting economic trends
- Making cost estimates
- Conducting special studies in budget-related areas
- Issuing annual reports that discuss federal spending and revenue levels and the allocation of funds
The CBO was established by the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. Its purpose is to provide Congress with nonpartisan analysis and information to help them make informed decisions about the federal budget.
For example, if Congress is considering a new bill that would increase spending on healthcare, the CBO would estimate how much that bill would cost over the next 10 years. This information would help Congress decide whether or not to pass the bill.
