Today, Taiwan's underwater internet and power lines are vulnerable to sabotage, and it's hard to hold those responsible accountable. This bill would create a U.S. initiative to boost Taiwan's defenses, set aside $20 million annually for rapid repairs from 2027 to 2032, and allow the U.S. to impose sanctions on those who commit or facilitate sabotage. It would also establish a U.S. planning group to prepare for potential crises involving Taiwan.
