Plain Language Summary

# Green Climate Fund Authorization Act of 2025 - Summary **What the Bill Would Do** The Green Climate Fund Authorization Act of 2025 would authorize U.S. funding for the Green Climate Fund (GCF), an international organization that provides financial assistance to developing countries for climate change initiatives. If passed, the bill would commit American financial resources to help these countries reduce greenhouse gas emissions, adapt to climate impacts, and transition to cleaner energy systems. **Who It Affects and Key Provisions** The bill would primarily affect developing nations receiving GCF support, as well as U.S. taxpayers who would fund the commitment.

It also impacts American businesses and organizations involved in climate technology and renewable energy, which could benefit from increased global demand. However, specific dollar amounts, timeline, and detailed provisions are not provided in the available information. **Current Status** As of now, HR 2997 is in committee, meaning it has been introduced but has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. The bill was sponsored by Representative Adriano Espaillat (D-NY).
