Our veterans accepted the responsibility to defend America and uphold our values when duty called.

America's veterans and troops serving abroad today fought hard to preserve our red, white and blue, from the Revolutionary War to today's Global War Against Terrorism, and Congress' action today is appropriate for one of our most sacred symbols.

The flag represents all the values and the liberties Americans have and enjoy everyday.

this was out of touch with mainstream America and their values.

Our first responsibility is to protect the American people and we cannot put on blinders to expect that everyone who seeks asylum does so in good faith.

It is our duty and our privilege to keep America moving forward.
