If passed, the Secretary of the Treasury would have 60 days to establish the account. A website would have to be established so people could donate directly to the cause online.
Contact your Congresscritter and tell them to pass it.

Not enough time, damn it.
Call me a pessimist, but how much you wanna bet that even if the wall is funded, it will never be built. We have been debating this since Reagan, and little has been done and we have 22 million illegal in the country.
I thought it was the senate that just ####ed us.
It’s our government, NOT theirs. If we want to direct money to a specific area then our POS non-representatives need to get up of their lazy asses and make sure it happens.
Both houses need to be entirely removed and replaced.
We are allowing ourselves to be ruled rather than represented.
And the traffic will flood to areas without the wall. It will make it easier for the border patrol.
We don’t care!!! It is sending a message, loud and clear, that true no-bot-bs GRASSROOTS Americans WANT THE WALL!!! And we’re putting our money where our moths are.
It’s driving the left bonkers!!!! So they are sending concern trolls out to try to demoralize us.
WON’T WORK!!!!!!!!
We all know ‘they’ could fund the wall; no guts but lots of waste:

My Congresscritter is a ‘RAT. But THIS Congress should vote on it. It will likely pass and, even if it doesn’t, it will get the votes on record. Anyone who votes against it shows that it isn’t about TAXPAYER MONEY IT’S BECAUSE THEY WANT OPEN, UNSECURED BORDERS!
They won’t have to be returned. GoFundMe’s terms have no obligation to use the moneys as advertised. Once you give somebody money there it’s theirs to do with as they please.
Nope. They can easily find someone who wants a free wall.
Your sentiments are correct, but I would bet you a prime rib dinner that the actual number here already is more like 55 million—and I refuse to accept the ‘anchor baby’ theory.
MORE than 1 in 5 prisoners in American jails & prisons are ILLEGALS.
We needed a wall in 1986. It's too late now to stop the demographic disaster that awaits white America. Sure, I suppose we can spend billions of dollars building a wall but if anyone think it's going to change anything, they're wrong. The invaders are here and they are outbreeding us. And when the Democrats regain power, they'll just put doors in it and let everyone through like the countless tens of thousands of Somalis that we imported legally.
Democrat opposition to the wall is purely an effort to deny President Trump a much needed victory in upholding the cornerstone campaign promise that his base is demanding. Demoralizing Trump's base is a massive part of the Democrat's 2020 strategy.
If there is a capitulation here, we'll wind up with bits and pieces of a wall under construction. This will allow President Trump to say "Look! We're building a wall!" We'll never see a total border barrier. There's nobody in DC who wants it. I'm not sure even President Trump does.
The wall was already voted FOR & money was FUNDED—but not used— in 2006.
Exactly! It’s like 75% of the people want a wall but the aholes say you can’t
have a wall...end of story. disgusting!
I know many good people went in for this, but it was always inappropriate. Sorry.
Good point. And I’ll add.. and growing (re the illegal population).
Add to that an explanation: The ones voting against the wall want an excuse to outlaw weapons because of the increase of crime. Increase taxes with the excuse “you need us to protect you” That they can dump the black support because they now have enough illegal voters to replace them.
