Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced

A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution condemns the coercive actions taken by the People's Republic of China against Japan following statements made regarding Taiwan. It aims to reaffirm the United States' commitment to its alliance with Japan under the United States-Japan Mutual Security Treaty. The resolution highlights various instances of diplomatic, economic, and military pressure exerted by the PRC. It supports Japan's right to express its foreign policy positions without fear of retaliation. Finally, it calls for the cessation of coercive actions and urges the President to work with regional partners to counter such practices.
