Expresses the sense of the Congress that foreign policy actions by the Government of the People's Republic of China which undermine U.S. global interests and which are inconsistent with past U.S.-Chinese cooperation (such as the transfer of missiles covered by the Missile Technology Control Regime and transfers of unsafeguarded nuclear equipment, materials, and technology) will have serious negative consequences for the development of U.S.-Chinese relations, in particular placing in jeopardy the access of Chinese products to the U.S. market through nondiscriminatory tariff status. Urges the Government of China to take constructive steps to reduce tensions in regional military conflicts by restricting the transfer of conventional weapons, working toward the creation of a multilateral conventional arms transfer and control regime, agreeing not to transfer weapons of mass destruction, and agreeing to multilateral controls on the transfer of ballistic missiles and the technology associated with the development of such weapons and delivery systems.
HCONRES 174 - 102Concerning relations between the United States and the People's Republic of China.
Referred to the Subcommittee on Trade.
Bill Text Stats
Affected Sectors
How to read this
Sectors are deterministic matches from official Congress.gov data and cached bill text. They are source-derived signals, not conclusions about intent or economic effect.
Evidence matches count official fields, normalized subjects, cached text snippets, or extracted entities that matched the sector rules.
Impact is a bill-level rollup used for sorting and filtering. It is not an economic impact estimate.
Confidence is the strongest individual match score behind that sector.
Evidence snippets show why a sector matched and can repeat when Congress.gov repeats the same phrase across official fields.
CBO Cost Estimates
Official Congressional Budget Office cost estimate links associated with this bill through Congress.gov records.
How to read this
CBO estimates are official source documents with their own assumptions, scope, and publication dates. They can score a bill, a version of a bill, or a broader legislative package.
LawLinter stores the source link from Congress.gov and does not replace the CBO document. Use these cards as pointers for source review, not as independent fiscal advice.
