[Pen-l] Robert Weissman: No Blank Check for the IMF



I promised PEN-L there would be a campaign against unrestricted
Congressional funding for the IMF. Here is the opening shot:

No Blank Check for the IMF
Multinational Monitor editor Robert Weissman calls on Congress to
impose objectively verifiable reforms on the IMF as a condition of any
increase in U.S. funding, including: the IMF must not impose
contractionary policies during recessions, or must provide
quantitative justification for doing so; the IMF must exempt health
and education spending from any government budget caps; parliaments
must be given authority to approve or reject deals negotiated between
the IMF and finance ministries.
