This article explains the evolution over the past six years of the US government’s clearer awareness of the dangers that Chinese challenges pose to America. It focuses on the central role of the US Congress in advancing US awareness and driving American responses.

Regarding Taiwan, the most important matter in dispute between the United States and China, US resolve in countering China is very much in the interests of the government and people of Taiwan. This article forecasts strong congressional resolve to defend America from Beijing challenges, concluding with brief observations about the implications of the presidential elections in Taiwan in January 2024 and the United States in November 2024.
