This House resolution supports designating the week of May 10 through May 16, 2026, as "Taiwanese American Heritage Week." It states that Taiwanese Americans share values of freedom, democracy, and the rule of law, notes that more than 700,000 Taiwanese Americans live in the United States, and highlights their contributions in business, public service, science, education, the armed forces, and technology — including the semiconductor industry. The resolution also notes the 47th anniversary of the Taiwan Relations Act and the role Taiwanese Americans play in U.S.–Taiwan ties.
