Enhanced support for defense cooperation with Taiwan is critical to the national security of the United States.
Bill Info
- Sponsor: Rep. Perry, Scott [R-PA-10] (Introduced 03/19/2021)
- Cosponsors: (6)
- Committees: House – Foreign Affairs
- Latest Action: House – 03/19/2021 Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. (All Actions)
- Original Text
What does this bill do?
- Strengthen Taiwan’s self-defense capabilities against China.
- Improve US-Taiwan defense cooperation.
- Make Taiwan a member of the “NATO Plus” group, which currently includes Japan, Australia, South Korea, Israel, and New Zealand.
Why is it important?
Located at the center of the “first island chain,” Taiwan is geopolitically important and plays a key role in the stability and prosperity of the region. Enhancing Taiwan’s security and keeping Taiwan free are therefore a strategic priority not just for the U.S., but for the rest of the world.
The Taiwan PLUS Act would improve Taiwan’s military capabilities against China and treat Taiwan as a country in all relevant laws and regulations for a five-year period. Every five years, the Secretary of State would have the authority to extend the measure if it is found to serve the U.S. national security interest.
