US would set up a team to plan economic responses if China acts against Taiwan.
This bill would create a government team to plan how the U.S. could use economic tools, like sanctions, if China acts aggressively towards Taiwan. This team would find potential targets and make a strategy. It would help the U.S. be ready while keeping its "One China" policy. The team would also report its plans to Congress every year.
Today, the U.S. does not have a dedicated government team specifically tasked with planning economic responses to potential Chinese aggression against Taiwan. If this bill becomes law, such a team would be set up within 180 days. This team would identify potential targets for economic penalties and create a full plan for how to respond. The team would then brief Congress on its strategy and send annual reports, but no penalties would be put in place automatically.
