Congressman Higgins Sponsors a New Purple Heart Flag Bill
Congressman Brian Higgins is presenting a new way to honor those killed or wounded in combat with the introduction of the Purple Heart Flag Act.
It would require the display of a Purple Heart Flag at federal facilities such as war memorials, VA hospitals and national cemeteries and other federal buildings. The Purple Heart flag would be required by congressional law to be flown on specific days of year such as Memorial Day, Flag Day - June 14, 4th of July, Purple Heart Day - August 7th, Veterans Day and other days to be considered.
