The Senate recently passed unanimously a bipartisan act to ally the United States with Indo-Pacific partners in confronting the military rise of Beijing.

Titled the Indo-Pacific Cooperation Act of 2019, the legislation would require U.S. administrations to develop a comprehensive long term strategy for the Indo-Pacific as the ruling Chinese communist regime continues to seek complete military dominance in the region through military modernization, influence operations, and economic inducements.
