Peace on the Korean Peninsula Act

HR 1369, the "Peace on the Korean Peninsula Act," directs the U.S. State Department to review restrictions on Americans traveling to North Korea, particularly for humanitarian reasons like family reunions (affecting approximately 100,000 Americans with relatives there). It also requires the State Department to create a diplomatic roadmap for ending the Korean War through formal negotiations with North and South Korea, including establishing liaison offices. The bill mandates reports to Congress within 180 days detailing these reviews and strategies, without changing existing military deployments or U.S. policy on North Korea's nuclear program. It focuses on diplomatic engagement to replace the 1953 armistice with a permanent peace agreement.
