HJR 25-1014 Colorado House · 2025 Regular Session

Vietnam Veterans Military Appreciation

HJR 25-1014 is a non-binding resolution passed by the Colorado General Assembly to honor veterans who served in the Vietnam War. It specifically recognizes Colorado veterans' service, sacrifices, and post-war challenges, while expressing appreciation for their community contributions and leadership. The resolution encourages all Coloradans to remember these veterans' sacrifices and directs copies to state officials, veteran organizations, and Colorado's congressional delegation. As a commemorative resolution - not a law - it does not create new policies or benefits but serves as a formal expression of state recognition.
