HR 7392 United States House · 118th Congress

To reprogram Federal funds appropriated for UNRWA to construct the southwest border wall and to prohibit future funding for UNRWA.

This bill redirects existing federal funds that were previously allocated for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) to construct a permanent barrier along the U.S. southwest border. It directly affects UNRWA, which provides aid to Palestinian refugees, by halting its current funding stream for border construction. The bill mandates that all unspent funds designated for UNRWA be repurposed for border wall construction and prohibits all future federal funding for UNRWA starting upon enactment. These are concrete policy changes: redirecting specific existing funds and banning all future support.
