H.J. Res. 120 would approve the selection of a site to commemorate and honor African-Americans who fought in the Revolutionary War. In 2013, the National Mall Liberty Fund, a non-profit organization, was authorized to establish the commemorative work on federal land in Washington, DC, or its environs without the use of federal funds. CBO estimates that implementing H.J. Res. 120 would not affect the federal budget. Because enacting H.J. Res. 120 would not affect direct spending or revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
H.J. Res. 120 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal governments.
