Flag Folly Finished

Routinely, United States Capitol flags are flown and sold. Accompanying certificates are inscribed. Recently, Andrew Larochelle purchased a flag. Unfortunately, his certificate arrived altered. The reason? Religious expressions are forbidden.

On Thursday, the Architect of the Capitol amended their guidelines. Henceforth, inscriptions will not change. Simply stated, the Architect’s posturing was repugnant. Their reversal was appropriate.
