Just in time to be too late for this week’s email newsletter, the Congressional Budget Office has come out with cost estimates for two of the bills being debated this week.

H.R. 1913, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009 comes in at about nine cents per U.S. family.

And H.R. 627, the Credit Cardholders’ Bill of Rights Act of 2009 costs about $1.35 per family. That credit card bill is undoubtedly quite low. (yuk yuk) Most of the costs from the bill are costs imposed on the private sector, and CBO estimates of private-sector costs tend to be very vague.

Here are the current votes on the two bills. Click to vote, comment, learn more, or edit the wiki articles about the bills.
