2024, making Taiwan the 7th largest trading partner of the United
States; and

 WHEREAS, The first agreement under the U.S.-Taiwan Initiative on

deepening the existing trade partnership and enhancing U.S.-Taiwan trade

in 2020 to strengthen cooperation on international education and

companies have invested in the State of New York, contributing to a
mutually beneficial relationship; and

Chinese community, including organizations such as the Chinese
Consolidated Benevolent Association, Taiwan Center, Taiwanese Chamber of
Commerce of New York, and Chinese Chamber of Commerce of New York; these
organizations devote themselves to the harmony and development of the
State of New York; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this legislative body pauses in its deliberations to
