Introduced Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.

RESOLUTION

Acknowledging the courage and sacrifice of veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans.

Whereas, on June 25, 1950, North Korea invaded the Republic of Korea with approximately 135,000 troops, starting the Korean War; Whereas nearly 1,800,000 members of the United States Armed Forces served along the armed forces of the Republic of Korea and 20 other allied nations under the United Nations Command to defend freedom and democracy on the Korean Peninsula; Whereas the United States suffered 36,574 dead and 103,284 wounded during the Korean War in some of the most horrific conditions in the history of warfare; Whereas 73 years have passed since the signing of the cease-fire agreement at Panmunjom on July 27, 1953, and the Korean Peninsula still technically remains in a state of war; Whereas, members of the United States Armed Forces, including approximately 25,000 members today, have served in South Korea ever since, continuing to protect democracy, and hundreds of these brave servicemembers have tragically perished in their efforts to preserve the armistice; Whereas veterans who performed such service are known as “Korean Defense Veterans”; Whereas the Korean War has become a forgotten war for many Americans; Whereas many members of the Armed Forces who fought in the Korean War returned home without the fanfare that greeted the heroes of World Wars I and II; Whereas veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans deserve to be recognized by all Americans for their honorable service, during and after the Korean War, in defense of democracy and freedom; and Whereas the people of the United States and the Republic of Korea are eternally grateful to the veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives recognizes the importance of the contributions and sacrifices made by the veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans. <all>
