Identifying that the People’s Republic of China is conducting an illegal asymmetric war against the U.S. and West Virginia

Summary

House Concurrent Resolution 18 states that the People’s Republic of China is conducting an illegal, asymmetric war against the United States and West Virginia using chemical, biological, cyber, and influence tactics. It directs the governor and state officials to identify Chinese‑linked entities, forgive any West Virginia public debt held by them since Oct. 1 2019, and invites other states to take similar action. The measure is a formal declaration and call for coordinated response, not a binding law.
