## Summary

**Support Taiwan’s international space through targeted foreign assistance.** This bill would create a Taiwan Allies Fund and authorize $40.0 million for each of fiscal years 2026, 2027, and 2028, drawn from the Countering PRC Influence Fund, to back countries that face pressure from the PRC for their ties to Taiwan. - Eligible partner countries would be those that keep official relations with Taiwan or have meaningfully strengthened unofficial ties, that have faced PRC coercion, and that lack the capacity to respond without U.S. help. No single country could receive more than $5.0 million in a fiscal year. - Funding could back health initiatives as alternatives to the PRC’s Health Silk Road, strengthen civil society and independent media, diversify supply chains away from the PRC, offer alternatives to PRC development financing, advance Taiwan’s participation in international organizations, and support private-sector ICT alternatives. - The Secretary of State, working with USAID and the American Institute in Taiwan, would lead implementation. Funds may be treated as foreign assistance, can be merged or transferred with other aid accounts, remain available until spent, and require a report within one year and then annually for two years on funding, goals, success, and Taiwan’s commensurate contributions.
