(b) Establishment of Task Force Not later than 180 days after December 23, 2022, the President shall establish an inter- agency task force to be known as the ‘‘Coun- tering Economic Coercion Task Force’’ (referred to in this section as the ‘‘Task Force’’). (c) Duties (1) In general The Task Force shall— (A) oversee the development and imple- mentation of an integrated United States Government strategy to respond to People’s Republic of China (PRC) coercive economic practices, which shall include— (i) systematically monitoring and evalu- ating— (I) the costs of such practices on United States businesses and overall United States economic performance; (II) instances in which such practices taken against a non-PRC entity has ben- efitted other parties; and (III) the impacts such practices have had on United States national interests; and (ii) facilitating coordination among Fed- eral departments and agencies when re- sponding to such practices as well as proactively deterring such economic coer- cion, including by clarifying the roles for Federal departments and agencies identi- fied in subsection (d) in implementing the strategy; and (iii) forming policy recommendations for the implementation of relevant United States authorities to respond to instances of PRC coercive economic practices; (B) consult with United States allies and partners on the feasibility and desirability of collectively identifying, assessing, and re- sponding to PRC coercive economic prac- tices, as well as actions that could be taken
