  • The new Utah law states that only a handful of flags like the American flag are allowed to be displayed in government buildings and schools, the AP reported.

The article from MSN discusses a new law signed by Republican Governor Brad Little in Idaho, which bans the display of political flags, including MAGA (Make America Great Again) and Pride flags, in public schools and government buildings. This legislation, known as House Bill 296, aims to maintain neutrality in educational and governmental environments by prohibiting flags that represent political viewpoints, ideologies, or movements. The law specifically allows for the display of the U.S. flag, the Idaho state flag, and other flags like those representing Native American tribes or POW/MIA. Critics argue that this ban could marginalize certain groups, particularly the LGBTQ+ community, by limiting expressions of identity and support. Supporters of the bill, however, believe it ensures that public spaces remain free from what they perceive as political indoctrination.
