Taiwan Allies International Protection and Enhancement Initiative (TAIPEI) Act of 2019
This bill requires the Department of State to consult with Congress before decreasing or increasing U.S. government engagement with another nation as a result of that nation's decision to strengthen or undermine ties with Taiwan. (Taiwan is self-governing, but China considers it a renegade province and has taken actions to encourage countries and international organizations to limit or cut off relations with Taiwan.)
The bill states that the U.S. government should support Taiwan in strengthening its relationships with countries around the world.
