Summary

Honors the memory of all U.S. service members killed in Afghanistan, including the thirteen who died on August 26, 2021. Extends gratitude to all men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who served in Afghanistan. Urges the federal government to secure the safety and evacuation of any U.S. citizens still remaining in Afghanistan. Further urges the federal government to work with international, state, and local governments to assist displaced Afghan allies to resettle in safe communities. Further urges the federal government to somberly evaluate the failures of U.S. leadership that led to this grim denouement of Operation Enduring Freedom, to stand boldly against totalitarian regimes emboldened by this perceived American weakness, and to once again take up America's historic position as the leader of the free world and as a beacon of liberty across the globe.
