H.Res. 291

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the Republic of Argentina's membership in the G20 should be conditioned on its adherence to international norms of economic relations and commitment to the rule of law.

Finds that Argentina has failed to meet G20 membership responsibilities.

Calls upon the President and the Secretary of the Treasury to work the G20 members to terminate Argentina's participation until Argentina has: (1) reversed efforts to expropriate foreign investment, (2) satisfied U.S. court judgements against it, (3) honored awards of international arbitral panels against it, and (4) complied with Financial Action Task Force recommendations.

Conditions Argentina's G20 membership on its adherence to international norms of economic relations and commitment to the rule of law.

Referred to the Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere.
