Bush urges constitutional flag protection amendment by July
President Bush calls flag desecration unacceptable and asks Congress to pass a constitutional amendment by the Fourth of July to restore protections. House Speaker Foley says a vote will occur within two weeks and will personally vote, arguing against meddling with the First Amendment. Bush marks his 66th birthday with a miniature Iwo Jima Memorial replica as he presses lawmakers to act. Foley warns the move is political and emphasizes Bill of Rights concerns amid partisan tensions.
