GOP Senator Seeks To Ban Pride Flags At Govt Buildings

More Fox News lies:

Republican Sen. Roger Marshall introduced a bill on Wednesday, Flag Day, aimed at preventing government buildings from flying any flag other than the American flag.

The bill, known as the One Flag for All Act, will make it illegal to fly, drape or display any flag other than the American flag on federal buildings or properties, with limited exceptions. His bill is a response to the Biden administration’s decision to fly the Pride Flag more prominently than the American flag over the weekend during a gay pride celebration at the White House.

“This is a disgrace,” Marshall tweeted at the time. “Not only is it in breach of US Flag Code, but it’s a glaring example of this White House’s incompetence and insistence on putting their social agenda ahead of patriotism.”

Read the full article. Marshall’s stupid claim about the “prominence” of the White House’s Pride flag has been widely debunked, including in a Community Note appended to his own stupid lying tweet.

Dear Sen @RogerMarshallMD: I assume you did not intend to spread misinformation; however the picture you attached was misleadingly cropped. I have attached the actual picture which shows there has been no violation of the U.S. Flag Code. https://t.co/DDiqnFFffu pic.twitter.com/vUuMxUIddi

The real disgrace is that the LGBTQ+ community still faces discrimination in housing, education, public accommodations and more. We must pass the Equality Act and ensure all Americans are free from discrimination. https://t.co/4j86mCAzvO

I won’t be lectured on patriotism by someone who voted to overturn an election.

Pride is patriotic. https://t.co/9ZvPtMxDro

Yes, it’s only about Flag Code.

Keep telling yourself that. https://t.co/4NZL9bs0r5 pic.twitter.com/W1KrZzN65H
