As a member of Congress, I am able to arrange for an American flag to be flown over the United States Capitol Building. Many people like to give them to friends and loved ones as presents or to commemorate a significant event or accomplishment. Others like to keep them for themselves to display in their home or office. If you’d like to order a United States flag, please read the instructions below before proceeding to the purchase form.
To order flags, you must either be a resident of my district or send the flags to a person who lives in my district. Flags may be flown on any day of the year and for special occasions or events. Each flag is accompanied by a certificate from my office confirming that it was flown over the U.S. Capitol Building.
Before we are able to mail your flag, we must first receive a check or money order for the total amount. This form will help you determine your flag order’s total cost. Unfortunately, we do not accept credit cards.
There is no limit on the number of flags you may order, and flags can be purchased in multiple sizes and materials. If multiple flags are requested to be flown, they will all be flown on the same date and shipped at the same time. If you need flags flown on different dates, you must submit separate order requests for each unique date. All flags are sold at cost and take approximately 4-6 weeks for delivery, depending on the availability of inventory. Please use the online order form to specify the flags and certificate information you want.
If you would like to learn more about the American flag, the proper way to fly it, folding instructions for folding the flag, or how to dispose of unserviceable flags, the American Legion website has more information.
