                                 A BILL

 
 To enact a comprehensive legislative response to the threats posed by 
  the Chinese Communist Party to the United States of America and to 
         freedom, democracy, and human rights around the world.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``China Task Force Act'' or the ``CTF 
Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is completely 
        committed to a hostile communist ideology in which individuals 
        exist to serve the state, enjoying rights and freedoms only at 
        the state's discretion.
            (2) The CCP applies this ideology onto the People's 
        Republic of China (PRC) through a system of government called 
        ``socialism with Chinese characteristics'', the main tenet of 
        which is the absolute totalitarianism of the CCP. CCP General 
        Secretary Xi Jinping recently described this political system 
        by writing ``the Party, the government, the military, the 
        people, and academia--east, west, south, north, and center--the 
        Party leads everything''.
            (3) The CCP's adherence to communist ideology and its 
        application of this ideology through totalitarianism drives its 
        persistently malign conduct as the CCP seeks to eliminate 
        perceived threats to the security of its regime.
            (4) The CCP has legally defined the national security of 
        the PRC as the ``absence of international or domestic threats 
        to the state's power'', enshrining in law its belief that the 
        CCP will not be secure until all threats foreign and domestic 
        are eliminated, a concept which requires external aggression.
            (5) The CCP considers constitutional democracy, 
        internationally recognized human rights, free markets, 
        independent journalism, and internal dissent to be security 
        threats.
            (6) It is a bedrock American principle that the United 
        States Government is not built to grant rights, but to protect 
        rights inalienable to every human being, and furthermore that 
        the infringement of such rights anywhere is unjust.
            (7) Driven by its hostile communist ideology and enabled by 
        decades of foreign policy from the United States and likeminded 
        democracies which disregarded this ideology, the CCP has risen 
        to become the United States prevailing economic and national 
        security threat of this generation.
            (8) The CCP's malign conduct, its threat to American 
        interests and values, and its fundamental illegitimacy as a 
        means of governing one-fifth of mankind all ultimately derive 
        from the CCP's hostile communist ideology. As in the United 
        States prior great power competition with a communist 
        superpower, the United States goal should be the end of the 
        CCP's monopoly on power, rather than indefinite coexistence 
        with a fundamentally hostile communist state.
            (9) The theory that unprincipled economic entanglement with 
        the PRC's CCP-controlled economy would induce economic and 
        political liberalization while contributing to United States 
        interests has been proven false. Decisive action is required to 
        stop the CCP from further exploiting the United States economy, 
        defend United States national security interests, impose costs 
        on the CCP's malign actions, and uphold American values.
