“Today is National POW/MIA Recognition Day, a day to remember the brave men and women who served their country and have not returned home. Currently, there are more than 80,000 American servicemembers who are still missing and remain unaccounted for from World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Cold War, and the Gulf wars. Our servicemembers answered the call to protect and defend our country in times of war and in times of peace. We have a sacred compact with the men and women who serve, and we will never stop searching for the ones who remain missing and unaccounted for until they are returned to their loved ones. That is why today I reintroduced a resolution that urges our trading partners to aid in the search and recovery efforts of our Nation's missing servicemembers. Mr. Speaker, we will never stop searching until all our servicemembers are brought home. They and their loved ones deserve no less. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this resolution.”
