Promoting American Patriotism In Our Schools Act

What this bill does

  • Schools must display the U.S. flag, teach about it, and have daily Pledge of Allegiance recitations to receive federal education funding.
  • Public elementary and secondary school students, teachers, and staff are affected, with exceptions for religious or personal objections.
  • Schools must certify annual compliance or risk losing federal education funds; the Education Department enforces the requirements.

  2. 02

    What evidence exists that daily Pledge of Allegiance recitations and flag displays measurably improve student civic engagement or patriotism compared to other civics instruction methods?

  3. 03

    How should schools handle the enforcement and documentation of religious or personal objection exemptions while maintaining accountability to the Education Department?
