SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Taiwan is a free and prosperous democracy of nearly 
        24,000,000 people, an important contributor to peace and 
        stability around the world, and continues to embody and promote 
        democratic values, freedom, and human rights in Asia.
            (2) The policy of the United States toward Taiwan is guided 
        by the Taiwan Relations Act (22 U.S.C. 3301 et seq.), the 
        United States-People's Republic of China joint communiques 
        concluded in 1972, 1978, and 1982, and the Six Assurances that 
        President Ronald Reagan communicated to Taiwan in 1982.
            (3) Under section 2 of the Taiwan Relations Act (22 U.S.C. 
        3301), it is the policy of the United States--
                    (A) ``to preserve and promote extensive, close, and 
                friendly commercial, cultural, and other relations 
                between the people of the United States and the people 
                on Taiwan, as well as the people on the China mainland 
                and all other peoples of the Western Pacific area'';
                    (B) ``to declare that peace and stability in the 
                area are in the political, security, and economic 
                interests of the United States, and are matters of 
                international concern'';
                    (C) ``to make clear that the United States decision 
                to establish diplomatic relations with the People's 
                Republic of China rests upon the expectation that the 
                future of Taiwan will be determined by peaceful 
                means'';
                    (D) ``to consider any effort to determine the 
                future of Taiwan by other than peaceful means, 
                including by boycotts or embargoes, a threat to the 
                peace and security of the Western Pacific area and of 
                grave concern to the United States'';
                    (E) ``to provide Taiwan with arms of a defensive 
                character''; and
                    (F) ``to maintain the capacity of the United States 
                to resist any resort to force or other forms of 
                coercion that would jeopardize the security, or the 
                social or economic system, of the people on Taiwan''.
            (4) Since the election of President Tsai Ing-wen as 
        President of Taiwan in 2016, the Chinese Communist Party has 
        employed a variety of coercive military and nonmilitary tactics 
        short of armed conflict in its efforts to exert existential 
        pressure on Taiwan, including through diplomatic isolation, 
        restricting tourism, cyberattacks, spreading disinformation, 
        and controlling the ability of Taiwan to purchase COVID-19 
        vaccines from other countries.
            (5) In 2021, there was a notable increase in military 
        provocations by the People's Liberation Army against Taiwan, 
        including increased flights of military aircraft within 
        Taiwan's air defense identification zone, holding military 
        exercises in the vicinity of Taiwan's controlled waters, and 
        performing live-fire exercises in the South China Sea.
            (6) In March 2021, then Commander of the United States 
        Indo-Pacific Command Admiral Philip Davidson testified that the 
        threat of a military invasion of Taiwan by the People's 
        Liberation Army ``is manifest during this decade, in fact in 
        the next six years''.
            (7) In March 2021, then Commander of the United States 
        Pacific Fleet Admiral John Aquilino testified that the threat 
        of a military invasion by the People's Liberation Army of 
        Taiwan is ``much closer to us than most think'' and could 
        materialize well before 2035.
            (8) In October 2021, President Joseph R. Biden publicly 
        affirmed that the United States would come to the defense of 
        Taiwan, saying, ``yes, we have a commitment to do that''.
            (9) In addition to military power, economic and financial 
        instruments of United States power and their potential use can 
        have an important deterrent effect on the actions of other 
        countries.

SEC. 3. SENSE OF CONGRESS.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) it is in the interests of the United States to maintain 
        a free and open Indo-Pacific region, with peace and stability 
        in the Taiwan Strait as a critical component;
            (2) efforts by the Chinese Communist Party to unilaterally 
        determine the future of Taiwan through non-peaceful means, 
        including threats and the direct use of force, military 
        coercion, economic boycotts or embargoes, and efforts to 
        internationally isolate or annex Taiwan--
                    (A) directly undermine the spirit, intent, and 
                purpose of the Taiwan Relations Act (22 U.S.C. 3301 et 
                seq.);
                    (B) undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan 
                Strait;
                    (C) limit a free and open Indo-Pacific region; and
                    (D) are of grave concern to the Government of the 
                United States;
            (3) the initiation of a military invasion of Taiwan by the 
        People's Liberation Army would--
                    (A) disrupt the peace and stability of the region 
                and threaten the peace and stability of the entire 
                globe; and
                    (B) undermine core the political, security, and 
                economic interests of the United States; and
            (4) as an important deterrent measure against a military 
        invasion of Taiwan, the Chinese Communist Party must understand 
        that initiating such an invasion will result in catastrophic 
        economic and financial consequences for the People's Republic 
        of China.

SEC. 4. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

1978, and 1982, and the Six Assurances that President Ronald Reagan

military invasion of Taiwan by the People's Liberation Army, it is the 
policy of the United States--
            (1) to use and deploy all economic, commercial, and 
        financial instruments and levers of power, including--

                members of the Chinese Communist Party and financial 
                institutions and other entities affiliated with the 
                Chinese Communist Party;
                    (B) prohibiting the listing or trading of the 
                securities of Chinese entities on United States
