This legislation mandates the continuation of a pause on financial support to the Government of Burma, specifically targeting disbursements and new financing commitments from the World Bank. It directs the Secretary of the Treasury to instruct the United States Executive Director at the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development to use the U.S. voice and vote to maintain this pause. The original pause was implemented following the 2021 military coup that overthrew Burma's democratically elected government. This directive will remain in effect unless the Secretary of the Treasury determines that continuing the pause is not in the national interest of the United States.
