Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would change federal law on how the U.S. flag is displayed. It would require the flag to be flown at half-staff on the first Friday and Saturday after the full Moon that occurs on or after the spring equinox. These dates correspond to the days known as Good Friday and Holy Saturday. The new rule would be added to the existing section of the U.S. Code that lists half-staff days.
