Latest Action · August 29, 2025
Referred to the Committee on Armed Services, and in addition to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
H.Res. 667 is a ceremonial resolution honoring the members of the U.S. Armed Forces who served in the Afghanistan war from 2001 to 2021. The resolution recognizes that over 800,000 service members deployed to Afghanistan during the 20-year conflict, with 2,461 killed in action and more than 20,000 wounded, while thousands more continue to suffer from lasting health effects including post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries. The measure specifically memorializes the 13 service members killed during the final evacuation at Kabul airport on August 26, 2021, and acknowledges the sacrifices made by Gold Star families and military families. The House commits to honoring these veterans and their families while affirming the government's responsibility to provide comprehensive support, care, and recognition to Afghanistan veterans and their families going forward. As a resolution, this legislation carries symbolic and moral weight rather than funding or legal requirements.
