This resolution directly affects American citizens and other individuals living in the United States, especially scholars, activists, and members of Chinese and Hong Kong diaspora communities, who express views critical of the Chinese government. These individuals are the targets of the alleged harassment and intimidation tactics that the resolution condemns.

It also impacts U.S. federal and local law enforcement agencies, which are called upon to increase their vigilance and take action against such foreign interference. Additionally, American academic institutions and think tanks are urged to protect academic freedom, implying they may need to resist foreign pressure to censor research or debate.
