AI Summary
This bill, the Duplication Scoring Act of 2019, requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to analyze legislation reported by congressional committees in order to identify any new federal programs, offices, or initiatives that would duplicate or overlap with existing ones already identified in previous GAO reports on duplication and overlap in the federal government. The bill directs the GAO to submit these assessments to the Congressional Budget Office, which may then include the GAO's findings in the budget estimates it provides for the legislation. The bill aims to prevent the creation of new duplicative or overlapping federal activities.
