The resolution calls on the United States Congress to propose a constitutional amendment that would grant both Congress and the states the authority to prohibit the physical desecration of the American flag. It emphasizes the flag as a cherished national symbol, integral to the nation's history and values, and highlights its significance during pivotal moments in American history, including the War of Independence, World War II, and the civil rights movement. The resolution argues that the Supreme Court's decisions have inadequately protected the flag, and it asserts that the right to free speech should not extend to acts of desecration against this important symbol.

Furthermore, the resolution notes that the House of Representatives has previously passed similar resolutions to amend the Constitution, but these efforts have been repeatedly defeated in the Senate. It reflects a broader sentiment among state legislatures urging Congress to take action to safeguard the flag. The resolution concludes by directing that copies be sent to key congressional leaders to ensure they are aware of this memorialization and the call for action.
