The purpose of this legislation is to create a national registry for Korean American families who have been separated from their relatives in North Korea since the Korean War. The aim is to facilitate future reunions between these families and their loved ones, whether through in-person meetings or video calls. This initiative recognizes the emotional and historical significance of these family ties and seeks to provide a structured way for families to reconnect. Key provisions of the legislation include the establishment of a registry managed by the Secretary of State.
