Bill Summary

The statement includes a measure digest written in compliance with applicable readability standards. Digest: The Act requires state and U.S. flags on public buildings to be flame hardy flags by July 4, 2026. (Flesch Readability Score: 62.8). Establishes criteria for state and United States flags to be official flags. Directs public buildings to transition from displaying flags manufactured of flammable materials to flags manufactured of flame retardant materials by July 4, 2026.

AI Summary

This bill establishes new requirements for official state and United States flags displayed on public buildings, mandating that these flags be manufactured from flame retardant materials by July 4, 2026. Specifically, a state flag will only be considered "official" if it is made of flame retardant materials and conforms to the existing design and color specifications outlined in Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 186.010. Similarly, a United States flag will be deemed official if it is also made of flame retardant materials. The bill requires the persons or entities responsible for displaying flags at public buildings (such as government offices or schools) to procure new flame retardant flags and completely replace their existing flammable flags by July 4, 2026. The primary goal appears to be improving flag safety by reducing the risk of fire-related incidents through the use of flame-resistant materials.
