Washington, D.C. - House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce (R-CA) issued the following statement on Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen’s visit to Los Angeles.
“It is wonderful to welcome President Tsai to Los Angeles, and see so many from the local Taiwanese American community come join the celebration of the U.S.-Taiwan relationship and strong people-to-people ties. As Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, I can say that Congress looks forward to working closely with Taiwan to strengthen all aspects of the United States-Taiwan relationship, including supporting Taiwan’s bid for entry into the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement."
NOTE: Earlier this month, Chairman Royce led a bipartisan delegation to Taiwan during which he met with President Tsai. Rep. Royce has led delegations to Taiwan each year as Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
