S.J.Res. 14 - Constitutional Amendment on Physical
Desecration of the Flag
(Hatch (R) Utah and 57 cosponsors)
|
The President is deeply committed to protection of the United States flag
and will continue to condemn those who show it any form of disrespect. The
Administration believes, however, that efforts to limit the First Amendment
to make a narrow exception for flag desecration are misguided. The
Congress should be deeply reluctant to tamper with the First Amendment.
