Countering Gray-zone Aggression by the People’s Republic of China Act

This bill would require the Secretary of State, working with other federal agencies, to give Congress a strategy within 180 days for monitoring and publicly exposing gray-zone tactics used by the People's Republic of China, meaning actions short of open warfare such as vessel incursions, cyberattacks, disinformation, and economic pressure. The strategy would list affected areas, review existing U.S. programs, identify gaps and needed resources, and set an action plan with performance goals. Within 90 days after the strategy is submitted, the State Department would set up an interagency task force to carry it out, track progress, and update it. The Secretary of State and Attorney General would issue a yearly public report to Congress, and the task force would end after 7 years.
