(2) The Taiwan Relations Act (Public Law 96–

gation. 
(7) Taiwan exemplifies a thriving democracy 
consisting of more than 23,000,000 people who

ess, freedom of expression, and other individual lib-
erties.

lic of China (referred to in this Act as the ‘‘PRC’’) 
continues to repeat his desire to stifle the freedom 
of Taiwan, as evidenced by his July 2021 proclama-
tion, in which he stated, ‘‘All sons and daughters of 
China, including compatriots on both sides of the 
Taiwan Strait, must work together and move for-
ward in solidarity, resolutely smashing any Taiwan 
independence plots.’’.

power in the Chinese Communist Party (referred to 
in this Act as the ‘‘CCP’’), he is escalating the 
PRC’s campaign of coercion and intimidation 
against Taiwan, as evidenced by— 
(A) the accelerated preparations made by 
the PRC and its People’s Liberation Army (re-
ferred to in this Act as the ‘‘PLA’’) for an of-
fensive attack against Taiwan, such as the

tions in the Taiwan Strait, such as amphibious 
assault and live-fire exercises and record-scale 
incursions into Taiwanese air space;

sition in international institutions and multilat-
eral fora to exclude Taiwanese participation de-
spite Taiwan’s demonstrated expertise in rel-
evant subjects, such as public health; 
(D) threats and actions to compromise 
Taiwan’s economy and critical suppliers, such 
as draconian export controls and the ‘‘31 Meas-
ures’’ intended to lure Taiwanese talent to

stage that aim to subvert Taiwan’s democratic insti-
tutions. 
(11) The Indo-Pacific Strategy of the United 
States— 
(A) identifies Taiwan as an important 
leading regional partner; 
(B) seeks to bolster Taiwan’s self-defense 
capabilities; and

determined peacefully and in accordance with 
the wishes and best interests of the people of 
Taiwan. 
(12) The PRC considers stifling the freedom of 
Taiwan as a critical and necessary step to displacing
