A Democrat congressional candidate refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance and repeatedly turned her back on the American flag at Sacramento City Council meetings. My message for Mai Vang and to anyone who thinks about serving in elected office: That flag is not a prop. It is not a political inconvenience. It represents the sacrifice of generations of Americans who bled, fought, and died so that free people could disagree openly in this country. And the least we can do, the absolute bare minimum, is stand for 30 seconds and say the Pledge of Allegiance. That flag is the one thing that is supposed to unite all of us. So yes, we should say the pledge. In Every committee. Every public meeting. Every generation of Americans has stood up willing to fight and die for that flag. The least we can do is stand up and honor it. #pledge #flag
