Taiwan Relations Reinforcement Act

The Taiwan Relations Reinforcement Act mandates the Secretary of War and the Commander of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command to submit annual reports to Congress for five years. These reports must assess the United States' capacity to deter and resist various threats to Taiwan, including invasion, blockades, and "gray zone tactics" (coercive actions below armed conflict). The assessments cover US military posture, operational readiness, logistical sustainability, the defense industrial base, and allied contributions, even when responding to other global conflicts. Crucially, the reports must identify any capability gaps and recommend specific budgetary, force posture, and legislative changes to enhance US ability to support Taiwan's self-defense and regional stability.
