Taiwan Protection and National Resilience Act of 2023
This bill requires U.S. government agencies to produce three key reports within 180 days of enactment. It directs the Defense, State, and Commerce departments to identify U.S. goods China relies on (creating strategic leverage) and U.S. vulnerabilities from Chinese trade dependencies (like critical minerals or pharmaceuticals). The reports will also outline a sanctions strategy to restrict China’s military access to resources if it conducts coercive actions against Taiwan, including invasion. The bill does not impose new sanctions but prepares contingency plans for policymakers, affecting federal agencies and Congress through mandatory reporting.
