SUBJECT: 75th Anniversary of the Korean War
SOURCE: Author
DIGEST: This resolution commemorates June 25, 2025, as the 75th anniversary
of the Korean War to honor the courage, service, and sacrifice of all who served
during the Korean War.
ANALYSIS: This resolution makes the following legislative findings:
1) The Korean War began on June 25, 1950, when North Korean forces crossed
the 38th parallel and invaded the Republic of Korea, marking the start of a
three-year conflict.
2) The Korean War ended with the signing of the Korean Armistice Agreement on
July 27, 1953, which halted hostilities without a formal peace treaty and left the
Korean Peninsula divided to this day.
3) The bravery, sacrifice, and commitment of Korean War veterans have too often
been overlooked, and they should be rightfully remembered as part of the
“Forgotten War”.
4) In the 75 years since the outbreak of the Korean War, the Republic of Korea has
emerged from a war-torn economy into one of the major economies in the
world and one of the United States’ largest trading partners.
This resolution commemorates June 25, 2025, as the 75th anniversary of the
Korean War to honor the courage, service, and sacrifice of all who served during
the Korean War.
