HJR 1006 Colorado House · 2026 Regular Session

Latina & Latino Veterans

HJR 1006 is a ceremonial resolution recognizing the contributions of Latina and Latino veterans to U.S. military service. It formally acknowledges their historical service from the Revolutionary War through modern conflicts, citing specific units like the WWII "Bushmasters" and the "Borinqueneers" of the Korean War. The resolution does not create new benefits or policies; it simply expresses the General Assembly's commendation of these veterans' sacrifices. It directs that a copy be sent to the American GI Forum of Colorado. This is a symbolic gesture with no binding legal effect or direct impact on veterans' services.
