National Patriot Day Remembrance Flag Act

This bill would add a section to federal law naming the Freedom Flag as the national symbol of remembrance for the September 11, 2001, attacks and for teaching future generations about that day. It would require the flag to be displayed each year from September 11 through the end of September at the Capitol, the White House, national cemeteries, major military installations, the offices of the Secretaries of State, Defense, and Veterans Affairs, and every U.S. post office. The flag would have to be displayed so the public can see it. It would rank directly after the POW/MIA Flag in order of precedence, and its retirement and disposal would follow Veterans Affairs flag practices.
