The bill amends Title 38 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to establish July 27 of each year as "Korean War Veterans Armistice Day." It includes a series of legislative findings that highlight the historical context of the Korean War, which took place from 1950 to 1953, and the significant involvement of the United States Armed Forces. The findings emphasize the sacrifices made by American troops during the conflict, noting that approximately 36,000 service members lost their lives, with many more wounded or missing. The bill also addresses the lack of public awareness surrounding the war, often referred to as the "Forgotten War," and recognizes the establishment of the Korean War Veterans Memorial in 1995.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Governor issue an annual proclamation encouraging public schools and educational institutions to observe Korean War Veterans Armistice Day. The proclamation will promote activities that honor the contributions and sacrifices of those involved in the Korean War, although it does not require mandatory participation from schools. This initiative aims to enhance recognition and remembrance of the veterans who served during this critical period in history. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
