Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-SC, is spearheading the effort in response to a handful of past instances in which American embassies around the world flew rainbow flags to promote homosexual "pride" or "rights," the Washington Examiner reports.

Introduced last Thursday, the Old Glory Only Act does not single out LGBT flags; rather, it forbids the flying of any flag other than the American flag. As of Friday it has 26 cosponsors, all Republicans.

"The United States flag is the single greatest symbol of freedom the world has ever known, and there's no reason for anything but Old Glory to be flying over our embassies and posts around the globe," Duncan told the Examiner.

American embassies in Macedonia, Jamaica, Belize, Israel, and Iraqi Kurdistan, are among the locations that have caused controversy in recent years for flying pro-LGBT flags, under both the Obama and Trump administrations. Many other embassies, such as in Prague, the Czech Republic, and even the Vatican, have promoted homosexual "pride" through a variety of other statements and gestures, as well.

While President Donald Trump has overwhelmingly pleased pro-lifers for consistently working against abortion and Planned Parenthood, his failure to crack down on Obama-era holdovers' LGBT advocacy is part of a far more mixed record on LGBT issues.
