Ending Lending to China Act of 2025
S 2362, the Ending Lending to China Act of 2025, directs the U.S. Treasury to instruct American representatives at multilateral development banks (like the World Bank and Asian Development Bank) to oppose all new loans and financial assistance to China. It targets China specifically because the bill states China has "graduated" from needing such aid (exceeding the income threshold for borrowing since 2016). The bill requires the Treasury to submit annual reports to Congress on China’s borrowing status, voting power at these banks, and efforts to encourage other countries to graduate from borrowing eligibility. This legislation changes U.S. voting policy at these institutions but does not alter China’s actual eligibility or stop existing loans.
