Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would bar the use of federal money to put up new permanent fencing around the U.S. Capitol Buildings or around the Capitol Grounds, or any part of the grounds. The buildings and grounds covered are those defined in sections 5101 and 5102 of title 40 of the U.S. Code. The bill would still allow federal funds to be used to repair or replace fencing that already exists in those areas on the date the bill becomes law.
