Blocks federal money for new permanent fences at the U.S. Capitol
This bill would stop the government from using federal money to build new permanent fences around the U.S. Capitol and its buildings. It would still allow for the repair or replacement of fences already in place. This means federal agencies couldn't add new permanent barriers to the Capitol grounds.
Today, federal money can be used to install new permanent fencing around the U.S. Capitol and its buildings. If this bill becomes law, federal funds would be prohibited from being used for new permanent fencing, though existing fences could still be repaired or replaced.
