This section appears in one version only, so there is nothing to compare yet.
The Secretary of the Treasury shall direct the United States Executive Director at the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development— (1) to use the voice, vote, and influence of the United States to oppose the provision of support for any project that has been turned down or withdrawn from by a department or agency of the United States due to environmental, social, or human rights concerns, unless the head of the department or agency, as the case may be, verifies to the United States Executive Director that all such concerns have been adequately resolved; and (2) to inform the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Finance of the Senate whenever the Bank agrees to provide support for any project that has been turned down or withdrawn from by such a department or agency.
