Bill Summary
A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION celebrating the sister-state relationship with Taiwan.
AI Summary
This concurrent resolution celebrates the 42nd anniversary of the sister-state relationship between South Dakota and Taiwan, which began in 1984 and is founded on shared values of freedom, democracy, and market economies. The resolution highlights the mutually beneficial trade relationship, referencing recent events like the Taiwan Agricultural Trade Goodwill Mission and a letter of intent for wheat purchases, and acknowledges broader U.S.-Taiwan economic initiatives that could lead to a bilateral trade agreement. It further supports strengthening trade and academic exchanges, the signing of an Agreement on Avoidance of Double Taxation between the U.S. and Taiwan, Taiwan's participation in international organizations crucial for global well-being, and commends Taiwan's democracy.
