Urges members of United States House of Representatives to refrain from displaying flags of foreign nations within the House of Chamber during sessions.
This New Jersey Assembly Resolution (AR 136) urges U.S. House members to stop displaying foreign flags (like Ukraine's) in the House Chamber during sessions. It references an April 2024 incident where members waved the Ukrainian flag after passing military aid, calling such displays contrary to American sovereignty. The resolution non-bindingly asks the House to exclusively display the U.S. flag, military flags, and POW flags during sessions. It has no legal force and serves only as a symbolic statement to the House leadership.
