Today, the Korean War remains the longest ongoing U.S. military conflict.  The time is right to recognize the human costs of the ongoing Korean War, which was never settled with a peace treaty.  At a time when many Americans struggle to pay their bills, vital U.S. dollars are directed into further militarizing the Korean peninsula.  The Korean peninsula remains tragically divided, and millions of Korean and Korean American families remain separated from their loved ones.  We must honor them and all those who fought in the war by replacing hostilities with genuine peace within their lifetimes.
