Prohibition of Non-US Flags at Public Buildings

This new law restricts the display of flags other than the United States flag in public buildings accessible to citizens. Its aim is to standardize symbolism in government-managed spaces, which may affect how citizens perceive these areas. However, the law includes several exceptions for flags of special significance.
Key points
Only the United States flag may be displayed at public buildings, including government offices, military installations, and embassies.
The prohibition applies to both the exterior of buildings and publicly accessible interior areas, such as hallways.
Exceptions allow for the display of military, historical, state, Native American tribal, city, diplomatic, and national observance flags.
