Washington, D.C. (WOLO)–A US Representative from South Carolina has filed a bill that will prevent any flag other than the United States flag from being flown in front of US embassies around the world.
Rep. Jeff Duncan tweeted Thursday that he filed the Old Glory Only Act.
He also posted a picture of the US Embassy in Seoul, South Korea that also shows a Black Lives Matter flag and a gay pride flag.

The decision to allow the flags in the first place was made by Secretary of State Anthony Blinken in 2021.
