Marsha Blackburn,
After the Obergfell vs. Hodges decision of 2015 to legalize civil marriage for same-sex couples, supportive politicians have celebrated this every year by flying the "pride" or "progress" flags under American flags every June on government property--especially embassies. This is inappropriate, unpatriotic, and disrespectful to all other minority groups in America. Alas, the red, black and green is not flown in February, the Mexican flag is not flown in September and May, and the Irish flag is not flown in March even though these ethnicities comprise between 10% and 20% of the population, whilst the LGBT are less than 5% of the population.
President Trump discontinued this in his regime, but now Antony Blinken, the new Secretary of State, vows to undo this course of action.*
Proponents of flying the "pride" and "progress" flags in June say that this is important for the sake of inclusivity. The American flag, with red and white stripes, blue field, and 50 white stars, is the symbol of American unity and all the good America stands for. Alas, if the American flag is not inclusive enough for a person, that person does not belong in the United States of America!
Therefore, patriots of America urge you to do all you can to stop this disgusting display of favoritism. Create a law that prohibits the use of any flag on American, federal, property, with the exception of the POW/MIA flag. This includes the White House.
