Taiwan International Solidarity Act

The Taiwan International Solidarity Act would amend existing law to strengthen U.S. support for Taiwan's participation in international organizations. The bill would clarify that a 1971 United Nations General Assembly resolution does not prevent the United States from using its diplomatic influence to oppose China's attempts to exclude Taiwan from global bodies. It would also encourage the U.S. to work with allies to counter China's efforts to undermine Taiwan's diplomatic relationships worldwide.

The legislation would expand congressional oversight by requiring the State Department to provide detailed reports on China's attempts to undermine Taiwan's membership and observer status in international organizations. These reporting requirements would help Congress monitor and respond to efforts by China to isolate Taiwan on the world stage.

The bill passed the House on May 5, 2025, with bipartisan support and is now under review by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. If enacted, it would represent a formal statement of U.S. commitment to opposing what supporters describe as China's campaign to diplomatically isolate Taiwan, while maintaining existing U.S. policy frameworks regarding Taiwan's international status.
