As reported by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on December 19, 2013
S. 975 would amend provisions of the Social Security Act to allow existing block grants to states to be used for demonstration programs that would assess the effectiveness and other aspects of adult guardianship and implement changes deemed necessary by those assessments. Because the bill would not change the underlying authorization of appropriations, CBO estimates that implementing S. 975 would not affect the federal budget.
