Speaker Pelosi's visit signal that the US firmly stands with Taiwan. Not only it is a significant step forward in Taiwanese-American relations but also enshrines the significance of our Legislative Yuan as the first stop of Speaker Pelosi's visit.

This morning I used video-call to show 🇺🇸Speaker Pelosi my sincere welcome. I thanked her for the firmly support for Taiwan. She kindly asked about my health condition and after some greetings, she said "see you soon". We had a really great chat & hope we would meet up very soon.

On March 11, Congress passed the FY22 Consolidated Appropriations Act (H.R.2471), which includes a provision that bans the use of funds to "create, procure, or display any map that inaccurately depicts the territory and social and economic system of Taiwan." 1/2

#快訊
今（11）日院會總質詢上，中國國民黨立委 #蔣萬安 針對 3 月 3 日的 #全臺大停電，向行政院長蘇貞昌提出質疑。他也要求蘇貞昌承諾，未來不會發生大停電。
但蘇貞昌回應，要解決問題不是用這樣拍胸捕、給承諾的方式，反嗆「這種政府的承諾過去看多了，中國國民黨 #從你祖父開始說要反攻大陸。」
