FIRST ON FOX: 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,” the Kansas senator 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.”

When Marshall tweeted out his criticism of the White House decision to fly a Pride flag, a Twitter community note was added to the post to explain that the flag code was not being violated. But several political figures on social media agreed with the premise of Marshall’s criticism.
“Biden Admin continues to push their ‘woke’ trans agenda with a new ‘Pride Month Display’ which could not only violate US law, it is offensive and shows complete disrespect for the flag so many of my brothers and sisters in uniform fought and died for,” tweeted Tulsi Gabbard, the.former Democratic congresswoman and presidential candidate.
