Bill Summary
Amending Title 62 (Procurement) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, providing for flags made in America.
AI Summary
This bill amends Pennsylvania's procurement laws to require that flags purchased by the Department of General Services for public display must be entirely made in the United States. Specifically, the bill mandates that these flags must be both produced in the United States and constructed using materials sourced from within the United States. Additionally, each flag must include a label with the words "Made in America" to verify its origin. The legislation aims to support domestic manufacturing by ensuring that government-purchased flags are fully American-made, with the new requirements taking effect 60 days after the bill's passage. This means that any flags bought by the department for public display after the effective date must comply with these new sourcing and labeling standards, promoting transparency and supporting U.S. flag manufacturers.
