display the National League of Families POW/MIA flag.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Mr. SOLOMON submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Post Office and Civil Service
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the Congress that States and local governments should
display the National League of Families POW/MIA flag.
Whereas more than 2,300 members of the Armed Forces and other citizens of the
United States remain unaccounted for in Southeast Asia since the Vietnam era;
Whereas the families of these individuals have joined together as the National
League of Families to further awareness of POW/MIA issues;
Whereas the official POW/MIA flag of the National League of Families symbolizes
the commitment of the National League of Families and all the people of the
United States to a full accounting of all POW/MIA's of the Vietnam era;
Whereas the National League of Families POW/MIA flag is on display in the
Capitol Rotunda until a satisfactory accounting of all POW/MIA's of the
Vietnam era has taken place; and
Whereas 20 States already display the National League of Families POW/MIA
flag in or over their capitols, and many local governments officially display
the National League of Families POW/MIA flag: Now, therefore, be it
  Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it
  is the sense of the Congress that, until the President determines that a
  satisfactory accounting of all POW/MIA's of the Vietnam era has taken place--
  (1) each State should display the National League of Families POW/MIA flag
  in or over the capitol of such State; and
  (2) local governments in the United States should take appropriate measures
  to officially display such flag.
