Overview

• The All-American Flag Act, introduced by Sens. Susan Collins and Sherrod Brown, has passed both the Senate and the House.
• The bill mandates that federal agencies purchase flags made entirely from U.S.-produced materials.
• In 2017, the U.S. imported 10 million American flags, with the majority coming from China.
• Current federal rules require only 50% of materials in U.S. flags to be American-made.
• The legislation now awaits President Joe Biden's signature to become law.
