Very likely to pass

Bipartisan resolutions honoring veterans almost always pass because they are not controversial and show support for the military.

This resolution officially recognizes the bravery and sacrifice of Americans who served in the Korean War and those who have guarded the border in South Korea since the 1953 ceasefire.
It highlights that nearly 1.8 million U.S. troops served alongside allies to defend South Korea, resulting in over 36,000 deaths and 103,000 injuries during the conflict.
The measure also honors Korean Defense Veterans. This group includes the hundreds of service members who died while maintaining the peace on the Korean Peninsula after the fighting officially stopped.
Lawmakers introduced this to ensure the Forgotten War is remembered. They noted that many who returned from Korea did not receive the same public celebrations as those who fought in the World Wars.
