Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the enhancement of unity in America.

Summary

Expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the United States can achieve a more perfect union: through avoidance of "government speech" (as the state of Texas did in Walker III v. Texas Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans, Inc. ) that promotes or displays symbols, signs, and vestiges of racism, oppression, and intimidation; by abating the use of government speech through signs, actions, and words that promote division and tear at the fabric of American society; and by taking actions to ensure that government speech does not foster division, disharmony, intolerance through government-issued or sponsored flags, signs, images, or other symbols.
