issue an executive order declaring it illegal to fly the Confederate Flag over any public or federal building.

Created by J.J. on June 19, 2015

The Confederate Flag flies over government buildings in South Carolina and other places.
This symbol of slavery and racism must be taken off all public and federal buildings immediately.
The shooting deaths of 9 people in Charleston's South Carolina's Mother Emanuel AME Church is only the latest of violent actions in the last few months. We cannot move past racism while a symbol of slavery still flies over government buildings in this land.

The only exception to this executive order should be museum depictions of the Civil War.
