Congress cannot simply re-write history and strip the Confederate flag from existence. Members of Congress from New York and California cannot wipe away 150 years of Southern history with sleight-of-hand tactics. I will fight to ensure that this language is not included in any bill signed into law. f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
