## Summary

**Blocks federal funding for key international climate agreements** until other parties change how they classify the People's Republic of China. This bill would tie U.S. payments for the Montreal Protocol and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change to formal changes in China's status under those agreements. - Federal agencies could not obligate or spend federal funds to implement the Montreal Protocol, including its protocols, amendments, or any fund set up under the Protocol, until the President certifies that Parties removed the People's Republic of China from Decision I/12E's "developing countries" list. - Federal funds could not be used to pay for the operations or meetings of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, including its protocols, agreements, or any related fund, until the President certifies that Parties have added the People's Republic of China to Annex I. - The bill conditions resuming funds on a presidential certification delivered to the Senate and House foreign relations and appropriations committees, linking U.S. funding to specific treaty-party actions.
