What this bill would do
This bill, titled the Taiwan International Solidarity Act, aims to amend the Taiwan Allies International Protection and Enhancement Initiative (TAIPEI) Act of 2019. It clarifies that United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 did not address Taiwan's representation or sovereignty. The legislation directs United States representatives in international organizations to use their influence to resist efforts by the People's Republic of China to distort organizational decisions or policies regarding Taiwan. Additionally, it encourages U.S. allies and partners to oppose efforts to undermine Taiwan's diplomatic relationships. Finally, it requires reports to include information on attempts by the People's Republic of China to undermine Taiwan's status and ties.
