No Taxpayer Funding for the Wall Act

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``No Taxpayer Funding for the Wall 
Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The construction of a wall along the southern border is 
        estimated to cost tens of billions of taxpayer dollars.
            (2) On June 16, 2015, in New York, NY, while announcing his 
        candidacy for President of the United States, Mr. Donald Trump 
        stated ``I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls 
        better than me, believe me, and I'll build them very 
        inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern 
        border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my 
        words.''.
            (3) On July 31, 2015 in Turnberry, Scotland, during an 
        interview on CNN, Mr. Donald Trump stated ``I will build the 
        wall and Mexico's going to pay for it and they will be happy to 
        pay for it. Because Mexico is making so much money from the 
        United States that that's going to be peanuts and all these 
        other characters say, `Oh, they won't pay, they won't pay.' 
        They don't know the first thing about how to negotiate. Trust 
        me, Mexico will pay for it.''.
            (4) On February 25, 2016, in Houston, TX, during a 
        Republican Presidential Debate, Mr. Donald Trump stated, ``We 
        have a trade deficit with Mexico of $58 billion dollars a year, 
        and that doesn't include all the drugs that are pouring across 
        and destroying our country. We're going to make them pay for 
        that wall.''.
            (5) On August 23, 2015, during an interview on Justice with 
        Judge Jeanine, Mr. Donald Trump stated, ``We're going to build 
        a wall. It's going to be a great wall. Mexico is going to pay 
        for it.''.
            (6) On August 31, 2016, in Phoenix, AZ, during a rally, Mr. 
        Donald Trump stated, ``We will build a great wall along the 
        southern border and Mexico will pay for the wall. One hundred 
        percent. They don't know it yet, but they're going to pay for 
        the wall.''.
            (7) On January 10, 2017, General John Kelly, President-
        elect Trump's nominee for Secretary of Homeland Security, 
        stated during his Senate confirmation hearing, ``A physical 
        barrier in and of itself--certainly as a military person that 
        understands defense and defenses--a physical barrier in and of 
        itself will not do the job, it has to be really a layered 
        defense.''.

        of law, a State that has received or receives any Federal 
        funding in the form of a grant from the Department of Homeland 
        Security or any other Federal department or agency may not use 
        such funding to carry out section 102 of the Illegal 
        Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (8 
        U.S.C. 1103 note) or any other related provision of law, or to 
        otherwise build a border fence, related physical barriers or 
        infrastructure, or wall along the southern border of the United 
        States, including to carry out any activities related to such

        Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (8

        construction.
    (b) Audit and Penalty.--
            (1) Audit.--Not later than 180 days after the end of each 
        fiscal year, the Comptroller General of the United States shall 
        conduct an audit of each Federal department and agency under 
        subsection (a)(1) and each State that has received or is 
        receiving any Federal funding under subsection (a)(2) to assess 
        compliance with the prohibition under such subsections for such 
        preceding fiscal year.
            (2) Penalty.--If the Comptroller General of the United 
        States is unable to confirm the compliance with the 
        prohibitions under subsection (a) by a Federal department or 
        agency or by a State pursuant to an audit conducted under 
        paragraph (1), notwithstanding any other provision of law--

                expend more than 25 percent of funds authorized to be 
                appropriated for such Office for the fiscal year during 
                which such audit is conducted, until such time as the

                and
                    (B) in the case of a State, the heads of 
                appropriate Federal departments and agencies shall take 
                such steps as may be necessary to reduce the amount of 
                Federal funds that are made available to such State and 
                to require such State to repay such amounts previously 
                made available, as appropriate, until such time as the 
                Comptroller General is able to confirm such compliance.
    (c) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the

Summary: No Taxpayer Funding for the Wall Act This bill prohibits: (1) any federal agency from obligating or expending any federal funds to carry out provisions of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 regarding barriers at the border or any related provision of law or to otherwise build a border fence, wall, or related physical barriers along the US southern border. And (2) a state from using federal grant funds for such purpose. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) must conduct an audit each fiscal year to assess compliance with such prohibition.

The Inspector General of the federal agency responsible for carrying out such treaty shall oversee the use of funds received and expended pursuant to such treaty. The OMB shall: (1) include a statement of budgetary impact of and related to any executive order or presidential memorandum issued relating to border security during FY2017-FY2021. And (2) establish a publicly available website to track and display funds received from other non-federal sources, including foreign governments, to build a barrier along the souther border.
