Honor Inauguration Day Act

# Honor Inauguration Day Act (HR 342) Summary **What the Bill Does:** This straightforward bill would require the U.S. flag to be flown at its highest point on each presidential Inauguration Day (January 20th, or the following day if the 20th falls on a Sunday). The measure treats Inauguration Day as a special commemorative occasion worthy of this flag display protocol. **Who It Affects:** The bill would primarily affect federal buildings and institutions that display the American flag.

It establishes a symbolic requirement for flag placement on a specific national day and doesn't appear to impose significant costs or operational changes. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced by Rep. Monica De La Cruz (R-TX) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. No further action has been taken as of now.
