Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has just signed on to the “Old Glory Only Act,” joined Florida Reps. Matt Gaetz and Bill Posey to prohibit the raising of any other flag other than “Old Glory” over U.S. embassies and consulates around the world.
Former President Donald Trump rejected requests to fly the Gay Pride Flag (Rainbow) over three U.S. embassies in 2019, and now it looks like President Joe Biden will now allow the Pride flag and possibly other non-U.S. flags to be hoisted up flagpoles around the world.
The ”Old Glory Only Act” reads as follows:
To prohibit the flying of any flag other than the United States flag over United States diplomatic and consular posts, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1.SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the “Old Glory Only Act”.
SEC. 2. PROHIBITION ON FLYING OF CERTAIN FLAGS OVER UNITED STATES DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR POSTS.
The Secretary of State shall ensure that no United States diplomatic or consular post flies any flag other than the United States flag over such post.
