Recognizing the difficult challenges Black veterans faced when returning home after serving in the Armed Forces, their heroic military sacrifices, and their patriotism in fighting for equal rights and for the dignity of a people and a Nation.

Would recognize the service and sacrifices of Black veterans and urge action to address health and benefit disparities affecting Black and other minority veterans. The resolution cites historical examples from the Revolutionary War through World War II and modern conflicts, highlights groups like the Tuskegee Airmen, the 369th Infantry, and the 6888th Postal Battalion, and points to persistent problems such as disproportionate chronic illness and homelessness among Black veterans while calling on the Department of Veterans Affairs to continue working to eliminate those disparities.
