The flag of the United States of America has undergone many changes since its inception.
From the first official flag in 1777 to the current version of the flag (which has been in place since 1960), changes to the American flag have mirrored the evolution of the country. π§΅β¬οΈ
In 1776, our founding fathers gathered in the old Pennsylvania State House β what we now know as Independence Hall β to declare their independence from a King.
A decade later, their independence won, they returned to the same room to establish the guardrails for our new nation β the very foundation that members of Congress build upon as they debate and vote on new laws today.
Today, we welcomed a bipartisan, ceremonial session of Congress back to Congress Hall in Philadelphia to take inspiration from the example our founding fathers set β to debate our differences, but to always remember that we are united as Americans.
