Whereas, on June 25, 1950, North Korea invaded the Republic of Korea with approximately 135,000 troops to initiate the Korean War; Whereas nearly 1,800,000 members of the United States Armed Forces served along with the forces of the Republic of Korea and 20 other allied nations under the United Nations Command to defend freedom and democracy in the Korean Peninsula; Whereas the United States suffered 36,574 dead and 103,284 wounded during the Korean War in some of the most horrific conditions in the history of warfare; Whereas nearly 70 years have passed since the signing of the cease-fire agreement at Panmunjom on July 27, 1953, and the Korean Peninsula still technically remains in a state of war; Whereas, known as Korean Defense Veterans , nearly 25,000 United States soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines remain stationed in South Korea to continue protecting democracy, and hundreds of these brave servicemembers have tragically perished in their efforts to preserve the armistice; Whereas the Korean War has become a Forgotten War for many Americans; Whereas many members of the Armed Forces who fought in the Korean War returned home without the fanfare that greeted the heroes of World Wars I and II; Whereas veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans deserve to be recognized by all Americans for their honorable service during and after the Korean War in defense of democracy and freedom; and Whereas the people of the United States and the Republic of Korea are eternally grateful to the veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives recognizes the importance of the contributions and sacrifices made by the veterans of the Korean War and Korean Defense Veterans.

Whereas President Woodrow Wilson declared November 11, 1919, as the first observance of Armistice Day, on the one-year anniversary of the end of hostilities in World War I; Whereas, in 1938, Congress passed a law to establish November 11 annually as Armistice Day to honor World War I veterans; Whereas, following heroic actions from servicemembers in World War II and the Korean War, Congress passed Public Law 380 in 1954, to change Armistice Day to Veterans Day; Whereas Veterans Day honors all veterans who have served in the United States military; Whereas, since the founding of the country, more than 41,000,000 Americans have earned the title of veteran; Whereas the United States Census Bureau reports that approximately 16,500,000 Americans were veterans in 2021, having served in the Armed Forces from before World War II to the Global War on Terror; Whereas veterans have kept the darkness of evil from extinguishing the blessed light of freedom; Whereas veterans have gone forward to fight kaisers, commissars, fascists, Nazis, and terrorists to preserve the freedoms of the United States; Whereas the families of America’s veterans also sacrifice greatly for the United States; Whereas veterans must continue to receive the services and support they rightfully deserve; and Whereas veterans service organizations and other groups provide critical advocacy on behalf of America’s veterans: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives— (1) honors the service and sacrifice of America’s veterans; and (2) calls on the people of the United States to observe Veterans Day in recognition of the heroic actions of America’s veterans to protect the United States and allow freedom to endure.
IV 117th CONGRESS 2d Session H. RES. 1463 In the House of Representatives, U. S., November 15, 2022 RESOLUTION Supporting the goals and ideals of move over laws.

Whereas the House of Representatives recognizes law enforcement, fire and rescue, emergency medical services, tow truck operators, and transportation workers as traffic incident management responders (as such term is defined by the Traffic Incident Management Handbook of the Federal Highway Administration); Whereas due to the increasingly high rate of drivers engaging in risky behaviors on our roadways, including distracted driving, impaired driving, and speeding, many traffic incident management responders lose their lives while performing their duties each year; Whereas, nationally in 2021, 65 traffic incident management responders were killed due to roadside collisions; Whereas every State has a move over law, which has correlated directly to a safer environment along our Nation’s roadsides for traffic incident management responders and stranded citizens; Whereas move over laws generally require motorists to move at least 1 lane over when there is an emergency or rescue activity taking place on the shoulder or side of the roadway, or, if unable to do so safely, to slow down and pass the scene with caution; Whereas a Government Accountability Office report (GAO–21–166) on Emergency Responder Safety noted that State officials cite raising public awareness as the most prevalent challenge to move over laws; and Whereas providing traffic incident management responders an enhanced opportunity to inform the motoring public about these laws is critical to the public safety: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives— (1) supports the goals and ideals of move over laws; (2) urges relevant Federal and State agencies, as well as nongovernmental organizations involved in traffic incident management response, to spread awareness and promote the existence of, and adherence to, State move over laws; and (3) urges relevant Federal and State agencies, as well as nongovernmental organizations involved in traffic incident management response, to educate the public further on the dangers and potential loss of life if the provisions and requirements of State move over laws are not faithfully observed.
