Michael McCaul on New Law Affirming U.S. Support for Tibet

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul praised President Biden's signing of S. 138, the Promoting a Resolution to the Tibet-China Dispute Act. Signed on July 13th, the law reaffirms U.S. policy supporting Tibet's unique culture and religion. McCaul highlighted his satisfaction with the new law despite the administration's failure to take a position on recognizing future Dalai Lamas or implementing the Tibet Policy Act of 2002. He emphasized bipartisan U.S. support for Tibet and criticized China's attempts to undermine Tibetan culture. The law also counters Chinese disinformation and pushes for negotiations between China and Tibet.
