Affirming the alliance between the United States and the Republic of Korea.

This resolution would express the sense of the House of Representatives on several related matters: reaffirming the importance of the U.S.-Republic of Korea alliance, highlighting its role in Indo-Pacific security, underscoring the need to strengthen security, economic, and cultural ties, celebrating the contributions of Korean Americans to American society, and supporting the goals of Korean Culture-Kimchi Day. The resolution also notes the 80th anniversary of Korean liberation from colonial rule in 2025 and cites historical milestones in the bilateral relationship going back to the 1882 Treaty of Peace, Amity, Commerce, and Navigation. It makes no binding legal requirements, appropriates no funds, and changes no existing law.

The resolution is purely symbolic and directs no specific agency or program. It honors the over 2 million Korean Americans living in the United States and recognizes the broader U.S.-South Korea diplomatic and security relationship, including military personnel stationed on the Korean Peninsula.

As a House resolution rather than legislation, this measure would have no direct legal or financial effect. Its significance is political and diplomatic — signaling congressional support for the U.S.-South Korea alliance at a moment the resolution identifies as the 80th anniversary of Korean liberation, and affirming the House's commitment to the bilateral security and economic relationship.
