The Senate resolution celebrates the 50th anniversary of Hmong American communities, recognizing their journey and contributions to the United States. It highlights the historical context of the Hmong people, including their recruitment as proxy soldiers during the Vietnam War and the subsequent challenges they faced after the U.S. withdrawal from Southeast Asia in 1975. Many Hmong families fled persecution in Laos, seeking refuge in Thailand before ultimately resettling in America. The resolution acknowledges the resilience and progress of Hmong Americans over the past five decades, emphasizing their transition from hardship to self-sufficiency and family stability.

In honoring this milestone, the resolution expresses gratitude to the veterans of the Secret War for their service and contributions. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare an official copy of the resolution for distribution to relevant organizations, including the Fresno Center, SGU Veterans and Families of California, and the Lao Veterans of America Institute. The resolution serves as a formal recognition of the Hmong American community's enduring legacy and their significant role in the fabric of American society.
