GOP Lawmaker Introduces Resolution to Ban Foreign Flags on House Floor

A Republican House member has introduced a resolution to ban members of Congress “from bringing or displaying a flag of a foreign nation on the floor of the House.”

The resolution is a response to last week’s incident where House Democrats and a small number of Republicans waved Ukraine flags after the House passed a $95 billion foreign aid package, which gives $61 billion to Ukraine to support its fight against Russia’s invasion.

“On the floor of the United States House of Representatives, there should only be one flag on display: ours,” Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) said in a press release on April 26 when introducing the bill. “We make serious decisions on behalf of the American people and their taxpayer dollars on the House floor.”

“This business should be carried out beneath no other banner than our stars and stripes to remind us of who we represent and why this nation is the greatest in the history of the world. I’m glad to have earned the support of dozens of my colleagues who join me in standing up for the American people and putting our nation before all others,” Ms. Cammack added.
