What is the title of the proposed anti-terrorism bill that I believe
has something to do with trust funds and where can I find a copy?

Are you referring to the creation of a Counterterrorism Trust Fund by
the U.S. government? If not, please be more specific and also state
what jurisdiction (U.S., another country, a state, etc.) you are
looking at.

You're right, the U.S.'s Counterterrorism Trust Fund is what I'm
curious about.  Are there "official" documents?  (e.g. hearings,
debates, proposals, etc.)  Where can I get copies?

The proposed legislation that you are wondering about is H.R. 2930,
known as the "Terrorism Elimination Act of 2001" (short name) or "A
Bill to provide for creation of a Counter-terrorism Trust Fund, to
provide for the issuance of Freedom Bonds, to allow taxpayers to
contribute income tax refunds and other amounts to support
counter-terrorism efforts, and for other purposes." (official).  This
bill was introduced on September 21, 2001 by Representative Robert E.
Cramer, Jr. (D-AL).  Currently this bill is still being discussed in
the House Judiciary Committee Subcommittee on Crime.
