President Woodrow Wilson officially proclaimed June 14 as Flag Day in 1916. In 1949, Congress permanently established it as National Flag Day - a celebration of national unity and patriotism.

The official American flag was adopted by the Continental Congress on June 14, 1777, during the Revolutionary War. Colonial troops fought under many different flags with various symbols—rattlesnakes, pine trees, and eagles—and slogans—”Don’t Tread on Me,” “Liberty or Death,” and “Conquer or Die,” to name a few.

On that 14th of June, Congress made the Flag Resolution of 1777, stating: “The flag of the United States shall be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, with a union of thirteen stars of white on a blue field." The 13 horizontal stars and stripes represented the original 13 colonies that declared independence from Great Britain during the American Revolutionary War. Today, the 50 white stars symbolize the 50 states.

Americans celebrate Memorial Day to honor U.S. military members who died in combat. It was originally called Decoration Day because people would decorate the gravesites of fallen soldiers with flowers, American flags or other tributes. Current estimates suggest that more than 660,000 Americans have died in battle since the Revolutionary War and almost that many more have died from non-combat causes, such as disease and su***de.

This Memorial Day, we remember and honor those who gave it all🇺🇸

Today is Senior Fraud Awareness Day, and it's a reminder that protecting our seniors from financial exploitation starts with awareness, education, and action.

Financial fraud is a growing crisis. In 2024 alone, consumers lost more than $12 billion to scams, while businesses and banks lost over $120 billion more. Scammers are getting more sophisticated, targeting families through phone calls, phishing emails, fake investment schemes, and even instant payment systems.

As Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, I'm fighting back. I recently led my colleagues in demanding answers about what the Fed is doing to stop rising fraud, including fraud in instant payments and email-based scams.

I am also advancing legislation to protect Arkansans, including the GUARD Financial Data Act, the Financial Exploitation Prevention Act, and the Preventing Deep Fake Scams Act.

If you or someone you know has been targeted by fraud, contact the Elder Fraud Hotline at 1-833-FRAUD-11 or report it to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Arkansans deserve to know their hard-earned money is protected. I will keep pressing for stronger protections and tougher oversight to make sure Washington is doing its job.
