This bill prohibits the use of federal, state, foreign, or private funds to install permanent fencing around Lafayette Square, a public park in Washington, DC, located near the White House. The legislation does not prevent the repair or replacement of fencing that already exists at the park as of the bill's enactment date. The bill applies broadly to all funding sources, including government budgets and private contributions, making it illegal to finance new permanent fence construction in this area. No specific funding amount or implementation timeline is included in the legislation. The bill was introduced in July 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources.
