US HB6262

Secretary of State must develop a strategy to obtain membership status for Taiwan in the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol), including encouraging information sharing between Interpol Washington and Taiwan on global crime fighting

Taiwan held full Interpol membership from 1964 until 1984, when it was ejected after the People's Republic of China applied for membership

U.S. policy would advocate for Taiwan's membership in all international organizations where the U.S. participates, with representatives instructed to use U.S. voice, vote, and influence to support Taiwan's inclusion

Secretary of State must submit an unclassified report to Congress within 90 days describing the U.S. strategy and efforts to obtain observer or membership status for Taiwan in Interpol and other international organizations

Interpol Washington must submit a separate report within 90 days to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees on threats to Taiwan's criminal intelligence resulting from its lack of access to Interpol communications and data
