All-American Flag Act

Floor Speech

Date: July 22, 2024
Location: Washington, DC


Mr. Speaker, the American flag should be made in the USA. The All- American Flag Act is a bipartisan bill that I invite all Members to support. It would require all Federal agencies to purchase American flags that are manufactured right here in the USA, using materials grown and produced in the United States.

Under current law, this requirement applies only to the DOD and VA. This bill would extend it to all Federal agencies. I commend the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Sorensen), our distinguished colleague and the author of the House bill, for his diligent and important work on this issue.
