Legislation Impact Analysis Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

When a bill is proposed, officials need to know who it affects, how much it costs and what could go wrong, often within days. This agent reads the bill, lists each provision and identifies the groups and agencies affected. It pulls administrative data and census figures for each group and estimates a low and high range for every effect, since single numbers hide uncertainty. It then checks that each estimate uses data matching the bill's place and time. If not, it finds matching data or widens the range and notes the gap. The analyst reviews the statement, adjusts assumptions and owns the final version. Edge case: if a provision depends on rules an agency has not written yet, the agent marks its impact as unknown and explains why instead of guessing.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

Each provision gets a low and high estimate from matching data. Mismatched years or areas are recomputed or flagged.

  • Use the most recent data for the bill's jurisdiction
  • Unwritten rules make an impact 'unknown'
  • Show ranges, not single numbers

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

An example run

What happensA bill capped child care copays at 7% of income. The first estimate used national income data, so the place check failed. The agent switched to state survey data and re-estimated: 18,000 to 24,000 families affected at $41 million to $56 million a year. One provision relying on future agency rules was marked unknown. Analyst Priya Shah approved the impact statement on Feb 27.
