house 02/12/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to create a national registry for Korean American families divided by the Korean War, aiming to facilitate reunions and maintain a private repository of information to support future meetings. This proposed legislation seeks to ensure that the dialogue between the U.S. and North Korea includes family reunification efforts, providing hope for those separated by borders for decades.
