AI Summary

  • Codifies the Six Assurances as official U.S. policy toward Taiwan, reaffirming commitments made by the Reagan Administration in 1982: no date set for ending arms sales, no consultation with China on Taiwan arms sales, no mediation role, no revision of the Taiwan Relations Act, no position on Taiwan sovereignty, and no pressure on Taiwan to negotiate with China

  • Requires the President to notify Congress before taking any action that would alter these commitments, including pausing arms sales to Taiwan, negotiating with China about Taiwan arms sales, mediating between Taiwan and China, changing U.S. position on Taiwan sovereignty, or pressuring Taiwan to negotiate with China

  • Establishes a 30-day congressional review period (60 days during summer recess) during which no appropriated funds may be spent to further proposed actions unless Congress passes a joint resolution of approval

  • Prohibits the President from taking notified actions if Congress enacts a joint resolution of disapproval, with expedited floor procedures in both chambers for considering such resolutions

  • Declares that peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait is a matter of international concern and that Taiwan's future must be determined by peaceful means with consent of both sides
