“This message is for all those that are working in the United States Congress…. And what I am about to tell you, I hope that it resonates with you deeply. More than 1 million United States flags are made in China every single year.
I’m here to raise the awareness of the situation and hopefully induce in you a sense of urgency to fix the problem and close the loophole.
Any flag that is funded with American taxpayer dollars or flag that is flying on federal property needs to be made in America. —- Anything shy of that is not in keeping with America’s common sense core values.
All the time and every day, Congressmen are telling veterans, “Thank you for your service.” Well, you can start by closing the loophole.
On behalf of the almost 45 million veterans that have served this great nation & all those who are serving right now on active duty. Will you please get this done?”

The Make American Flags in America Act
(H.R. 1421 in the House; S. 900 in the Senate) closes loopholes and strengthens protections for American flag manufacturing by:
======
The Make American Flags in America Act of 2025, (H.R. 1421/ S.900), is a bipartisan and bicameral bill, requiring American flags displayed on federal property or procured by federal agencies to be manufactured completely in the United States from American materials.
The online marketplace has created an arena where many consumers are deceived and fall victim to the illegal tactics of foreign manufacturers selling and distributing counterfeit “American” flags online.
Imported flags, many deceptively labeled or marketed as “American,” are flooding online marketplaces, undercutting American businesses, and misleading consumers.
More than 100,000 unlabeled U.S. flags, valued at $1.5 million, are made in China and sold every month on Amazon. Some of these foreign-made flags are even displayed in government buildings and on military bases.
This legislation addresses this problem and requires the Federal Trade Commission to conduct a study on the enforcement and violations of country-of-origin labeling requirements for American flags sold in the U.S. to ensure integrity of American-made products for consumers.
========================
CALL TO ACTION:
Tell Congress to protect American flag manufacturing and close the loopholes that allow deceptive imports to flood the domestic marketplace & U.S. taxpayer-funded properties.

WHY THIS MATTERS:
—Evangelo “Vann” Morris,
Combat Veteran & Founder of The Healing America Foundation
"My bill, the Make American Flags in America Act, would ensure that any American flag displayed on federal property is entirely manufactured in the United States from American-produced materials."
— Rep. Nick Langworthy (NY-23)
I’ve also been a voice against Communist China’s ability to falsely label their American flags as “Made in the USA,” a lie that deceives American consumers and robs our domestic U.S. flag industry of well-earned business."
— Rep. Elise Stefanik (NY-21)
Original author of The Make American Flags in America Act
— Senator Ted Cruz (TX)
— Kim Glas, President & CEO, National Council of Textile Organizations (NCTO)
— Rep. Greg Landsman (OH)
“Flying the American flag is an act of patriotism, and it should be backed by American jobs and American materials. It’s just common sense that our government should only buy flags made in the US. This bill closes the loopholes to ensure we do.”
— Senator Ruben Gallego (AZ)
“In this country, we have so much to be proud of. Let’s make sure American flags are American made!”
— Senator Ashley Moody (FL)
“This commonsense bill both honors Old Glory and the many American small businesses that supply our homes and storefronts with these flags, and I’m proud to sponsor it,” said Congressman Johnson. “I look forward to its consideration and speedy passage.”
— Rep. Mike Johnson (LA-4)
Speaker of The House
“Flying American flags on federal property that are 100 percent made in America is common sense,” stated Congressman Balderson. “I am proud to support this bill, which would showcase the craftsmanship of America’s flag makers and support businesses here at home.”
— Rep. Troy Balderson (OH-12)
“The American flag is a symbol of freedom and hope for Texans, Americans, and the world. We should be making our flags in the Land of the Free, and I’m proud to work with Rep. Stefanik to ensure every flag flying over a federal building was manufactured by Americans and made with American materials.”
— Senator Ted Cruz (TX)
“The American flag represents the pride and joy of being an American and the very values of a nation founded upon freedom, democracy and the American dream.
Producing an American flag is a privilege that should only be granted to our fellow Americans who believe in the values it represents, not nations like Communist China who seek to destroy the American way of life.
Our bill preserves and protects the pride of American-made products and the patriotism of the flag and nation we love. I urge my colleagues to support its quick passage.”
— Senator Rick Scott (FL)
— Rep. Elise Stefanik (NY 21)
"On Flag Day and throughout National Flag Week, we celebrate the proud legacy of ‘Old Glory’ and reflect annually upon this enduring symbol of freedom. It is important to remember the purpose and reason for Flag Day, which is to commemorate the adoption of one flag, our American Flag.
Congresswoman Stefanik’s bill honors the importance of The Star-Spangled Banner; while celebrating our heritage and supporting an industry primarily comprised of small family businesses, the bedrock of the American workforce,"
— Saratoga Flag Company
“We sincerely appreciate Congressman Langworthy’s leadership and the co-sponsors of this bipartisan bill requiring the federal government to buy 100% American-made U.S. flags, including flags displayed on federal property.
The U.S. flag industry is key part of the broader American textile industry which is a strategic and critical domestic manufacturing sector supporting thousands of companies and 500,000 U.S. jobs.
Many of these companies are generationally owned and based in rural communities across the country.
While the industry remains resilient, it is facing economic distress, due in large part to China’s illegal trade practices such as dumping subsidized and falsely labeled flags on the U.S. market that undermine our vital industry and its workers. U.S. flag makers and textile workers cannot compete against unfair predatory trade practices. No industry can. But we can compete when the playing field is equal.
Ensuring that U.S. government procurement of American flags is fully sourced domestically is imperative to not only helping stabilize our domestic flag industry but also closing a backdoor to cheap, subsidized Chinese-made flags in federal supply chains.
We fully support this legislation and look forward to working with Congressman Langworthy and the other co-sponsors to advance it across the finish line this year.”
— Kim Glas, National Council of Textile Organizations
“As President of the National Independent Flag Dealers Association (NIFDA), I am proud to express our strong support for the Make American Flags in America Act.
We commend Representative Langworthy for his leadership in advancing this critical legislation.
This bipartisan bill ensures that all American flags purchased with taxpayer dollars—regardless of purchase size—and displayed at government buildings are genuinely Made in the USA.
By reinforcing domestic manufacturing, it protects American jobs and upholds the integrity of our nation’s most cherished symbol.
We urge swift passage of this legislation and remain committed to working with lawmakers, industry leaders, and stakeholders to ensure its enactment.”
— David McGehee, National Independent Flag Dealers Association
“The FMAA and its member companies strongly support the leadership efforts of Congressman Langworthy and all the congressional cosponsors in their support of this truly bipartisan legislation protecting the symbol of our Nation, the Flag of the United States of America.
Enactment of this bill, the Make American Flags in America Act, takes the necessary steps to ensure that all American Flags, procured by all federal agencies, and displayed on all federal property, be required to be ‘Made in the United States of America’.
The American flag and the FMAA have been under growing attack from the sale of counterfeit American Flags, mostly from China, being sold on e-commerce platforms to our federal, state, and local governments, as well as to unsuspecting American consumers.
These sales are intentionally misleading Americans, falsely advertising country of origin and bypassing country of origin labeling laws that are explicitly required under the Textile Fiber Products Identification Act.
Passage of this bill will usher in a new chapter of awareness and enforcement for our federal procurement agencies to be made aware and actively participate in the effort to only purchase American flags that are ‘Made in America’. ”
— Lauren VandenBosch, Flag Manufacturers Association of America
“American flags paid for by American taxpayers should be made in America by American workers.
We have some of the best workers in the world right here in Central and Northwestern Illinois, ready to make the flags that accompany our service members into combat and represent our patriotism at home and abroad.”
— Rep. Eric Sorensen (IL-17)
“The American flag is the world’s greatest symbol of freedom and liberty. It is a powerful representation of our values, our history, and our unity.
By ensuring that every flag is manufactured within our own borders, and with American-made materials, we not only support American workers and businesses, but we also guarantee the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
Let us proudly fly flags that are a true reflection of our unwavering commitment to the greatest nation in world history and its people,"
— Rep. Nancy Mace (SC)
“The American flag serves as a symbol of our identity, resolve, and values as one people.
To honor its significance, the federal government should only use flags entirely manufactured in the United States,”
— Senator Susan Collins (ME)
“The American flag is our nation’s most visible symbol and there is no question the United States government should buy flags that are made here at home,”
— Senator Gary Peters (MI)
“American flags should be made in America, period,” said Senator Brown.
“Today, half of the materials that our women and men in uniform fight under can be made in China.
We have to change that. We shouldn’t use taxpayer dollars to purchase American flags made overseas when American companies – and companies right here in Ohio – proudly produce the American flag.
—Senator Sherrod Brown OH-)
“It’s plain and simple: the United States flag, which serves as a symbol of our founding history and values, should not be made overseas.”
— Senator Joe Manchin (WV)
Our Star Spangled Banner remains an inspiration as the most universally recognized symbol for independence, liberty and freedom.
The American flag embodies the values and sacrifices made by all Americans, civilians and veterans since the American Revolution.
Our diverse American laborers produce the highest-quality, most durable flags, right here in the U.S.A.
A majority of the flag industry is comprised of small, independent, family-owned businesses; the bedrock of the American workforce.
This bill succeeds in setting the standard for which all American should embrace with pride and enthusiasm for America."
