CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Whereas beginning in April 1975, Pol Pot led the Communist 
guerilla group, the Khmer Rouge, in a large-scale insur-
gency in Cambodia that forcibly removed Cambodians 
from their homes and into labor camps in an attempt to 
restructure Khmer society;
•HCON 238 EH 
Whereas traditional Khmer culture and society were system-
atically destroyed, including the destruction of temples, 
schools, hospitals, homes, and historic buildings; 
Whereas the Khmer Rouge separated and destroyed families 
and punished and killed innocent civilians, including 
women, children, doctors, nurses, clergy, teachers, busi-
ness owners, intellectuals and artisans; 
Whereas more than 1.7 million Cambodians, or approximately 
21 percent of the population, were killed in one of the 
worst atrocities of the last century; 
Whereas many people were executed simply for being edu-
cated, wealthy, or even for wearing glasses as they were 
seen as bourgeois or contaminated with Western influ-
ence; 
Whereas after the Khmer Rouge regime was overthrown in 
1979, thousands of Cambodians fled on foot to refugee 
camps in Thailand and many refugees were processed 
again in other camps in the Philippines and Indonesia; 
Whereas from these refugee camps approximately 145,149 
Cambodians made their way to the United States, with 
the majority arriving in the early 1980s and settling in 
communities across the United States; 
Whereas despite the tremendous loss of family members, 
homes, and even parts of their heritage during the 
Khmer Rouge regime, Cambodians have shown courage 
and enormous resiliency; 
Whereas, according to United States Census Bureau figures, 
there are approximately 206,053 Cambodians currently 
living in the United States;
•HCON 238 EH 
Whereas the new generation of Cambodian-Americans con-
tinues to contribute to all aspects of American society as 
writers, doctors, professors, and community leaders; and 
Whereas the United Nations has taken affirmative steps to 
establish an international criminal tribunal to bring to 
justice the perpetrators of the Cambodian genocide: Now, 
therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That Congress—
(1) honors the victims of the genocide in Cam-
bodia that took place beginning in April 1975 and 
ending in January 1979; and

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Ms. MILLENDER-MCDONALD submitted the following concurrent resolution; 
which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary 
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 
Recognizing the need for judges who hear causes of action 
brought by teenage victims of dating violence to be edu-
cated as to the specific needs of such victims. 
Whereas girls and women between the ages of 16 and 24 are 
the most vulnerable to domestic violence, experiencing the 
highest per capita rates of nonfatal intimate partner vio-
lence; 
Whereas one third of teenagers report experiencing some kind 
of abuse in their dating relationships, including verbal 
and emotional abuse; 
Whereas approximately 1 in 5 adolescent girls report being 
physically or sexually hurt by a dating partner;
•HCON 239 IH 
Whereas 40 percent of teenage girls ages 14 to 17 report 
knowing someone their age who has been hit or beaten 
by a boyfriend; 
Whereas 26 percent of girls in grades 9 to 12 have been the 
victim of physical abuse, sexual abuse, or date rape; 
Whereas victims of dating violence often turn to the criminal 
and civil justice system to get the help they need to extri-
cate themselves from violent relationships as a last re-
sort; 
Whereas a positive or negative reception from the judge will 
effect whether or not a victim will continue with their 
case; and 
Whereas judges who are knowledgeable about the specific 
needs of dating violence victims, especially teenage vic-
tims, and recognize the characteristics of domestic vio-
lence that may affect judicial thinking are more likely to 
make the best possible decisions regarding dating violence 
cases: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That Congress encourages judges who preside 
over dating violence cases to educate themselves or avail 
themselves of educational programs that will promote 
greater understanding of dating violence and the issues 
faced by teenage victims of dating violence and the extent 
to which they as members of the judiciary can help these 
victims extricate themselves from unsafe and unhealthy re-
lationships.
