HOUSE FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE PASSES TAIWAN TRAVEL ACT
 
On October 12, 2017, the House Foreign Affairs Committee unanimously passed the Taiwan Travel Act (HR535) clearing the way for the bill to go to the floor of the House for a vote.
Members of the U.S. House of Representatives Steve Chabot (R-OH), Brad Sherman (D-CA), and chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA) introduced the Taiwan Travel Act on January 13, 2017. It currently enjoys the co-sponsorship of 58 Representatives.
The binding Taiwan Travel Act legislation states that Congress finds that: “Since the enactment of the Taiwan Relations Act, relations between the United States and Taiwan have suffered from a lack of communication due to the self-imposed restrictions that the United States maintains on high-level visits with Taiwan.” It concludes that: “the United States Government should encourage visits between the United States and Taiwan at all levels.”
To co-sponsor, please contact James Burchfield in Rep. Chabot’s office at 226-3200 or James.Burchfield@mail.house. gov or Guido Weiss in Rep. Sherman’s office at 225-5911 or Guido.Weiss@mail.house.gov.

The Apple Daily reported that a small contingent of US military officials boarded the “Panshi” to inspect its facilities and make inquiries regarding its capacity for surgical operations.
The report also indicated that the US might be interested in the Panshi due to the capability of the ship to accommodate a Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion — the largest and heaviest helicopter in the US military — on each of its decks.
