美國參議院外委會14日才通過修正版的「台灣政策法案」(Taiwan Policy Act)，並刪減敏感條文，美國眾議院28日最新出爐的「台灣政策法案」則在實質方面加強台灣防衛，並把先前參議院版本中經過修改或刪除的象徵性條文加回去，讓參眾兩院的台灣政策法案雖然類似，卻不完全相同。德州州立大學副教授翁履中今(29日)於《FOCUS世界新聞》中，接受主持人游皓婷線上訪問表示，「在參議院版本的台灣政策法案出爐時，看似挑戰過去台灣關係法中保持模糊的策略，凸顯美國對台策略逐漸清晰，也讓各界開始關注眾議院版本的台灣政策法案，但可以從兩點分析，第一點、『時間』，9月30日之後參眾兩院會進入選舉週期，也就是休會期直到11月8日美國期中選舉後才會重新開議，而開議不久就迎來感恩節和聖誕節假期，所以所剩的時間並不足以讓美國國會所有議員湊在一起把法案完全審議完成，這個時間點提出更多的是政治上『象徵性』的表態。」
