Summary

Amends the Trade Act of 1974 to declare that if the President proposes to extend into 1991 for a 12-month period the waiver of human rights and emigration requirements for nondiscriminatory treatment (most-favored-nation treatment) for China, such continuation shall be conditioned on progress made regarding human rights (including in Tibet), settlement of the Cambodian conflict, and termination of assistance to the Khmer Rouge. Expresses the sense of the Congress that the President should take the following steps with respect to China: (1) oppose all loans by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development which do not meet basic human needs; (2) increase funds to the Voice of America for transmissions into China, including Tibet; (3) support Taiwan's accession to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade; and (4) impose further sanctions.
