Expressing the sense of Congress that the International Olympic Committee should allow Taiwan to participate in the 2024 Summer Olympics under the national name, flag, and anthem of its own choosing.
HCONRES 114 is a non-binding congressional resolution expressing that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) should allow Taiwan to compete at the 2024 Summer Olympics using its own national name, flag, and anthem instead of the current "Chinese Taipei" designation. It argues that requiring Taiwan to use this term contradicts the Olympic Charter’s principles of non-discrimination and the right of athletes to represent their country. The resolution cites the IOC’s own charter stating that sport access must be free from discrimination based on "national or social origin," and notes that Taiwan athletes have won 36 Olympic medals under the current system. This resolution directly addresses the IOC’s policy toward Taiwan, not U.S. law or Taiwan’s status.
