A House Republican on Friday introduced legislation that would ban waving foreign flags on the floor of the lower chamber after Democrats unfurled Ukrainian flags to celebrate passing the $95 billion foreign aid package last week.
Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., questions TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew during a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, on the platform’s consumer privacy and data security practices and impact on children, Thursday, March 23, 2023, on Capitol Hill …
“On the floor of the House, there should be only one flag on display: ours,” said Ms. Cammack, Florida Republican. Many conservatives were upset with the April 20 vote, which had more Democrats in favor. The celebratory display prompted an outcry from the already irritated GOP. It also prompted Rep. Thomas Massie, Kentucky Republican, to post a video of the scene on X where he blamed House Speaker Mike Johnson for the rippling sea of blue and yellow. Mr. Massie is part of a small rebellion, led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Georgia Republican, trying to oust Mr. Johnson.
