AI Summary

This Joint Resolution, concerning Colorado and Taiwan Sister-State Relations, reaffirms Colorado's long-standing and mutually beneficial relationship with Taiwan, which began in 1983 and is founded on shared values of freedom, democracy, and free markets. It highlights recent efforts to strengthen these ties, including a trade and investment delegation to Taiwan and a memorandum of understanding signed by Governor Polis to foster cooperation in emerging technologies like quantum computing, photonics, precision agriculture, and semiconductors. The resolution also acknowledges the significant trade relationship between the United States and Taiwan, noting Taiwan's position as a major trading partner for the U.S. and vice versa, and supports Taiwan's inclusion in international organizations crucial for global health, safety, and well-being, while commending Taiwan's vibrant democracy.
