Make American Flags in America Act of 2025
Summary
The Make American Flags in America Act of 2025 proposes a requirement that any American flag purchased by the federal government be manufactured completely within the United States using American-made materials. Currently, federal law allows for some exceptions regarding the sourcing of materials for flags used by certain agencies. This legislation aims to close those loopholes to ensure that the national symbol is produced by domestic workers and businesses.
If enacted, the bill would likely impact federal procurement processes and the domestic textile industry. While it specifically targets government purchases rather than private sales, the bill seeks to bolster American manufacturing by ensuring taxpayer dollars are spent on flags that are 100 percent American-made. As this is a standard piece of legislation, it would require approval from both the House and Senate and the President's signature to become law.
