GOP Lawmaker Introduces Resolution to Ban Foreign Flags on House Floor

‘On the floor of the United States House of Representatives, there should only be one flag on display: ours,’ Rep. Kat Cammack said.

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.
