HJR 25-1015 Colorado House · 2025 Regular Session

Korean War

This House Joint Resolution (HJR 25-1015) is a symbolic resolution by the Colorado General Assembly honoring Korean War veterans. It formally recognizes the service of veterans who fought during the 1950-1953 Korean War, acknowledging that the conflict was historically called the "Forgotten War" but their sacrifices will now be remembered. The resolution does not create new laws or provide funding - it is a ceremonial statement of appreciation from Colorado's legislature. It directly affects Korean War veterans by publicly affirming their contributions to national defense.
