A bill to prohibit the Export-Import Bank of the United States from providing financing to persons with seriously delinquent tax debt.

The Bank may not provide financing to any person with seriously delinquent tax debt or for any project if any person participating in the project has seriously delinquent tax debt.

For purposes of paragraph (1), the Bank shall determine if a person has seriously delinquent tax debt—

(A) using information available through the System for Award Management website and data-analytical approaches; and

(B) in consultation with the Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

The President of the United States may waive the prohibition under paragraph (1) with respect to a person if the President—

(A) determines that there are urgent and compelling circumstances significantly affecting the interests of the United States that require the financing to be provided; and

(B) not later than 30 days after making that determination, submits to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives a report that includes the rationale for the determination and relevant information supporting the determination.

In this subsection, the term seriously delinquent tax debt —

(A) means a Federal tax liability that has been assessed by the Secretary of the Treasury under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and may be collected by the Secretary by levy or by a proceeding in court; and

(B) does not include—

(i) a debt that is being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement under section 6159 or section 7122 of such Code;

(ii) a debt with respect to which a collection due process hearing under section 6330 of such Code, or relief under subsection (a), (b), or (f) of section 6015 of such Code, is requested or pending;

(iii) a debt with respect to which a continuous levy has been issued under section 6331 of such Code (or, in the case of an applicant for employment, a debt with respect to which the applicant agrees to be subject to such a levy); and

(iv) a debt with respect to which such a levy is released under section 6343(a)(1)(D) of such Code.
