Flag Day June 14 – Two House Votes on the Flag This Session
Saturday June 14 is Flag Day. During the 2007-2008 General Assembly, the Iowa House took two votes regarding the flag. Click on the following links to see how your state representative voted. Amendment H-8507 (by Rep. Baudler, at the request of his granddaughter, Lauren, who noticed that an American Flag was not displayed at a school assembly at her school) would have required the display of the American flag in school gyms or where the school holds assemblies. It was defeated on a nearly straight party line vote. H-1954 would have required schools to say the Pledge of Allegiance each school day. It was defeated on a nearly straight party line vote.
