Indo-Pacific Treaty Organization Act
This bill requires the President to establish a task force within 180 days to analyze China and North Korea's actions and assess whether a new collective security agreement with Indo-Pacific allies (like Japan, South Korea, Australia, and India) could deter further aggression. The task force, chaired by the Secretary of State and including key defense and intelligence officials, must report its findings and recommendations to Congress within one year. The bill does not create a treaty but authorizes a study to inform future policy decisions. It directly affects the executive branch and congressional committees through its procedural requirements.
