Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.
This bill amends federal law to grant law enforcement authority to the Inspector General of the United States International Development Finance Corporation, an agency that provides financing and investment support for development projects in foreign countries. Currently, the Inspector General lacks the power to conduct criminal investigations and enforce laws directly, limiting their ability to investigate fraud, waste, and misconduct within the organization. By adding law enforcement authority, the Inspector General would be able to investigate crimes and violations more effectively, similar to inspectors general at other federal agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency. The bill was introduced in April 2024 by Representatives Castro and Fitzpatrick and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability. No specific funding or implementation timeline is specified in the legislation.
