Tribute to Hmong American Veterans

The Senate held a tribute to Hmong American veterans who fought alongside the United States during the Vietnam War, including the CIA-backed Secret War in Laos from 1961 to 1975. Senator Sullivan said the Hmong fighters saved thousands of American lives, that more than 40,000 were killed or wounded, and that their service and sacrifice should be remembered. The time was devoted to honoring the veterans rather than debating legislation.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
