Bill > S2224

This bill amends the Taiwan Allies International Protection and Enhancement Initiative (TAIPEI) Act of 2019 to strengthen U.S. support for Taiwan's international standing. The bill clarifies that United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758, which recognized the People's Republic of China (PRC) as China's representative at the UN, did not address Taiwan's representation or sovereignty, and explicitly states that the U.S. opposes any changes to Taiwan's status without the consent of its people. It instructs U.S. representatives in international organizations to actively resist PRC efforts to distort decisions, language, policies, or procedures regarding Taiwan. The bill also encourages U.S. allies and partners to oppose PRC attempts to undermine Taiwan's diplomatic relationships and international partnerships. Additionally, it expands existing reporting requirements to include information about PRC efforts to undermine Taiwan's membership or observer status in international organizations and its relationships with other countries. The overall purpose is to support Taiwan's international participation and protect its interests against PRC diplomatic pressure.
