What this bill would do

This bill aims to authorize the Development Finance Corporation to invest in Venezuela. It functions by amending the BUILD Act of 2018. Specifically, it requires the removal of Venezuela as a country of concern. By doing so, the bill grants the Development Finance Corporation the authority to make investments in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
