AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the State Department and the Treasury Department, working with intelligence and other federal agencies, to set up a task force within 180 days. The task force would identify Chinese military and non-military entities that could face U.S. sanctions or other economic actions if China moved to take control of Taiwan, such as through a blockade, seizing islands, or a major attack. The task force would brief Congress on a sanctions strategy, including economic effects on the U.S. and its allies and coordination with allies. It would then send Congress a classified report every year. The bill states it does not change the U.S. One China policy and that any sanctions must be authorized by existing law or a future act of Congress.
