This law lets the U.S. Governor of the Inter-American Development Bank vote for a 1970 capital and fund increase. It authorizes the U.S. to subscribe to new Bank shares and pay into the Fund for Special Operations. Congress authorizes the money to cover these payments.

(a) The U.S. Governor of the Bank may vote for two resolutions the Governors proposed at their April 1970 annual meeting, which were still pending before the Board of Governors. The resolutions would (1) increase the Bank's authorized capital stock and members' subscriptions to it, and (2) increase the resources of, and contributions to, the Fund for Special Operations. If the resolutions pass, the Governor may agree, for the United States, to subscribe to 82,352 shares (par value $10,000 each) of the increased capital stock — 67,352 of them callable shares and 15,000 paid-in shares — and to pay the Fund for Special Operations an initial $100,000,000 installment, followed by two more $450,000,000 installments if Congress authorizes them later. (b) Congress authorizes money, with no fiscal-year limit, for the Secretary of the Treasury to pay: three $50,000,000 installments for the U.S.'s paid-in capital stock subscription; two $336,760,000 installments for the U.S.'s callable capital stock subscription; and one $100,000,000 installment for the U.S. share of the Fund for Special Operations increase.
