Show full summary
  • People of Taiwan: The bill would affirm that the United States will provide Taiwan with arms of a defensive character and will maintain the capacity to resist any resort to force or coercion that would jeopardize Taiwan's security, social, or economic system.
  • Businesses and cultural ties: It would note that the Taiwan Relations Act preserves extensive commercial and cultural links and acknowledges Taiwan as a significant trading and investment partner of the United States.
  • U.S. policy limits and messaging: The bill would state the One China policy is guided by the Taiwan Relations Act, the three Joint Communiques, and the Six Assurances and would recall that the United States did not agree to set a date to end arms sales, consult the People’s Republic of China before arms sales, play a mediation role, revise the Taiwan Relations Act, take a position on Taiwan's sovereignty, or pressure Taiwan to negotiate.
