AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the State Department's sanctions coordinator and the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control to set up an interagency 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 takes steps to gain control of Taiwan, such as a blockade, invasion, or major attack. Within 180 days of forming, the task force would brief congressional committees on proposed targets, possible economic effects on the U.S. and its allies, and coordination with allies. It would then submit a classified report each year. The bill states that it does not change the U.S. One China policy and that any sanctions it identifies could only be imposed under existing or future laws passed by Congress.
