Bill 118 hr 3053, also known as the No Taxpayer Funding for United Nations Green Climate Fund Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the United States Congress. The purpose of this bill is to prohibit the use of taxpayer funds to contribute to the United Nations Green Climate Fund.
The United Nations Green Climate Fund is an international fund that provides financial assistance to developing countries to help them combat climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The fund was established as part of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
The No Taxpayer Funding for United Nations Green Climate Fund Act aims to prevent the United States government from contributing any taxpayer dollars to this fund.

Opponents of the bill argue that climate change is a global issue that requires international cooperation and support. They believe that the United States should be a leader in the fight against climate change and should continue to contribute to the Green Climate Fund.
Overall, the No Taxpayer Funding for United Nations Green Climate Fund Act is a controversial piece of legislation that highlights the ongoing debate over the United States' role in addressing climate change on the global stage.
