Mr. Speaker. let me begin by saving that like manv of my colleagues I am disturbed by the way this international development banks authorization has been handled. A majority of Members of this House voted to reduce U.S. outlays. to strengthen human rights protections. and to create a special assistance fund for refugees. Yet the conference committee in each case either dropped the House provisions altogether or took the teeth out of them. And all in rather indecent haste. I might add. For this reason I urge my colleagues to vote to recommit this bill to conference. I am also dissatisfied with the way the World Bank and the regional development Banks are being run.
