Honor Inauguration Day Act
HR 342, the Honor Inauguration Day Act, requires the U.S. flag to be flown at its highest peak on every presidential Inauguration Day, overriding any conflicting laws. This procedural bill directly affects all federal buildings and properties where the flag is displayed on that specific day. It mandates a ceremonial flag display to "commemorate and celebrate" the presidential election process, as stated in the congressional findings. The bill makes no substantive policy changes but establishes a specific flag protocol for Inauguration Day.
