On the recordNovember 8, 2023
I would just argue that the Treasury Department is in charge of various activities with regard to the governance of these boards, whether the World Bank, IMF, et cetera. These are entities that we fund. We are on these boards, and these boards direct funds that we have put in these entities. It is our job to make sure that the Treasury Department does its job, which is to monitor this, be on the boards, behave in a responsible fashion, and also to stop the nonsense going on around the world with bad actors such as Iran and this situation where I am talking about here with China. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
