Bill > HR57

This resolution expresses the Mississippi House of Representatives' support for strengthening ties with the Republic of China (Taiwan), a democratic nation recognized for its economic strength, particularly in technology, and its role in global stability. It highlights the significant trade relationship between the U.S. and Taiwan, valued at $201.1 billion in 2025, and acknowledges Taiwan's importance as an export market for American agriculture. The resolution advocates for a tax agreement between the U.S. and Taiwan, supports Taiwan's efforts to enhance its undersea cable resilience and counter actions from the People's Republic of China, and asserts that United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 should not prevent Taiwan's participation in international organizations like the World Health Assembly. Furthermore, it supports the establishment of a Mississippi Trade and Investment Office in Taiwan to boost economic opportunities and celebrates the anniversaries of the Taiwan Relations Act and the sister-state relationship between Mississippi and Taiwan.
