Summary
This bill would officially honor Cambodian veterans of the Khmer National Armed Forces (FANK) for their sacrifices and support to U.S. forces in Southeast Asia. It notes FANK's role opposing communism, disrupting enemy supplies, providing intelligence that aided U.S. operations, and helping evacuate U.S. Embassy personnel near the fall of Phnom Penh in April 1975. The resolution cites an estimated 1.5 to 3.0 million deaths during the Khmer Rouge genocide, recognizes refugees' mental health and socioeconomic struggles, and praises veterans' nonprofit work and contributions to American communities.
