Military Posture
The U.S. delegation in diplomatic talks would consist of 9 members, including the Secretary of State and diplomats under that office delegated for both the PRC and Taiwan. Funds cut from arms sales and direct military aid to Taiwan should be used to fund this diplomatic mission, as well as setting up a host city for peace talks in a third country, such as the Philippines or Singapore. Funding should also be allocated to facilitate the drafting of peace treaties, including potential incentives totaling $1 billion for any agreed to peace treaty, as exemplified in the 1979 Camp David Accords peace treaty facilitated by the U.S.

1. Party Commitment to Cross Recognition and Self Determination
Party Worldwide should direct diplomatic agencies in China under the U.S State Department to set up and facilitate cross-strait negotiations that are fair and under conditions that both nations previously agree to. The U.S. should be seen as the mediator and simply the one facilitating discussion. The U.S should establish itself as a nation that believes in autonomy of all nations and condemn the use of war as a means to do so. That being said, any breach in Taiwan's autonomy in particular will not be tolerated, and should be met with further diplomatic and potentially negative economic measures on China, although direct military intervention should be ruled out. This process of firm diplomatic pressure is key in order to ensure lasting peace in the region.

2. Peace for $ Plan: Scaling Back Unnecessary Military Aid
Party Worldwide is committed to non-interventionalist policy. Scaling back military aid to Taiwan to prevent unnecessary tension between the U.S and China is one key ultimate goal that the party holds. This approximately $7 billion (yearly) decrease in spending in regards to foreign military aid should be used to bolster diplomatic and peace programs in the Indo-Pacific region, and any excess thereafter should be used to fund domestic social programs in the United States. The United States should also call upon its allies and use some reallocated diplomatic funding in the region to burden share to support Taiwan, so the United States can lessen its military aid to Taiwan without leaving the nation in the dark.

3. Commitment to non-involvement and Peace Incentives for the PRC
Neither the President, nor the Department of War should have the authority to conduct any strikes in a potential conflict against China unless explicitly authorized by Congress in an explicit Declaration of War. If China is to take meaningful steps towards true intention for peace and recognition of Taiwan's autonomy, the People's Republic should be awarded lower tariff rates and the ending of certain sanctions on China on part of the United States. However, if Chinese aggression is to be ramped up, tariff rates on the country should be allowed to be increased if authorized by Congress in a two-thirds vote. Sanctions should also be continued to be applied in such circumstances.

Economic Preparedness
Party Worldwide will propose a policy that will grant specific independent rights for Taiwan and increase the influence of the US over the semiconductor market. This policy will contain 4 major parts, the first two focusing on short term resolutions and two of which focusing on the long term. Collectively, it will be deemed the 'Can't Get Enough (Semiconductors)' plan.

1. The 'I Crossed The Globe When I'm With You Baby' Act
Party Worldwide will call for a conference with representatives of China in order to ensure transparency about the next set of acts, and to mitigate tensions that have been established previously. China will be assured that the US does not intend to invest in Taiwan's defense capabilities, nor do they intend on selling any military technology, so weapons, artillery, and soldiers will not be of concern for them. However, the US retains its right to its strategic ambiguity, in the case of Chinese invasion to Taiwan.

2. 'Take the Negatives and turn them into a Positive' Act
$5 billion will be granted to Taiwan over the course of ten years in order for them to establish a more expansive and resilient energy infrastructure and to invest in safer and more reliable methods for shipping and transportation. This will ensure that if Taiwan and China were to engage in military conflict, Taiwan's ability for international trade and communication will not be substantially hindered. Thereby, preserving their semi-autonomous nature, and temporarily supporting their supply chain during times of conflict. Taiwan will ONLY receive this grant if they agree to lower their defense budget from the projected 5% of their GDP in 2030 and maintain it at 3% or lower. The AIT will be granted the ability to be the main consultant for these projects, since they have been granted the funds to do so.

3. The 'Semiconductors Are My Hustle' Act
Current subsidies for the construction of semiconductor manufacturing facilities would be raised by 50%, approximately $26.35 billion, allowing for domestic and international companies to consider American territory for their facilities. Tariffs for semiconductors manufactured outside the United States will be raised by 5% for each proceeding year, over the course of ten years, resulting in an additional 50% tariff for semiconductors manufactured outside of the US by 2036. Revenue from the tariffs will be used to fund the subsidies mentioned prior and to support the establishment of an innovation hub to encourage foreign investment in the research and development of semiconductors.
