Commemorating the 50th anniversary of Southeast Asian refugee resettlement and the many contributions and sacrifices of Southeast Asian Americans to the United States.
HRES 948 is a commemorative resolution honoring the 50th anniversary of Southeast Asian refugee resettlement in the United States, directly affecting over 3 million Southeast Asian Americans. It recognizes their contributions to U.S. society, including military service during the Vietnam War era and ongoing cultural, economic, and social impacts. The resolution specifically commemorates key historical milestones (like the fall of Saigon and Khmer Rouge genocide) and acknowledges challenges these communities continue to face, such as health disparities and language barriers. It does not create new policies but affirms the nation's commitment to supporting refugees and immigrants. The resolution was introduced by Representatives Tran, Meng, Barragán, and others in December 2025.
