Proud to have worked on the #TaiwanPolicyActof2022 and getting it passed through @SenateForeign yesterday! The manager's package [note: diff from intro'ed text] can be found here: bit.ly/3LjfcEx. [Final text to be posted soon].

Key provisions to highlight (1/🧵): 1) Foreign Military Financing program for Taiwan, first introduced in @SenatorRisch's #TaiwanDeterrenceAct in Nov 2021 & incorporated into TPA. It is a sliding scale that provides $6.5b in grants & $2b in loans over next 5 yrs, contingent on increases in Taiwan's defense spending
