I am pleased to note my home State. Idaho. passed just such a resolution 2 years ago. In asking the Congress to present an antiflag desecration amendment to the States for ratification. the Idaho Legislature stated. ... the American Flag to this day is a most honorable and worthy banner of a nation which is thankful for its strengths and committed to curing its faults. and a nation which remains the destination of millions of Immigrants attracted by the universal power of the American ideal .... Should not the symbol of this ideal be protected? Since 1777. when the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution describing what the flag of the fledgling Nation should be. the Stars and Stripes has stood for all that we hold dear.
