                                     Preface

This report is the Congressional Budget Office's (CBO's) annual review of its activities
under the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995. The report covers legislation before the
Congress in 2002 that would impose federal mandates on other levels of government or the
private sector.

The report was prepared by Theresa Gullo, chief of the State and Local Government Cost
Estimates Unit of CBO's Budget Analysis Division, under the supervision of Robert
Sunshine, and by Patrice Gordon, chief of the Private-Sector Mandates Unit of CBO's
Microeconornic and Financial Studies Division, under the supervision of Roger Hitchner.
Many CBO staff members contributed to the analyses underlying this report; they are listed
in Appcndix C.

Christian Spoor edited the report, and Leah Mazade proofread it. Ernestine McNeil prepared
the tables, Lenny Skutnik produced the printed copies, and Annette Kalicki prepared the
electronic versions of the report for CBO's Web site.
