Dear Orly,
On Nov 29, 2016, Pres-elect Trump tweeted: “Nobody should be allowed to burn the American flag – if they do, there must be consequences..”.
Hopefully, this bill will soon be passed and signed into law by President Trump:
On Dec 2, 2016, Rep. Michael R. Turner, [R-OH] Sponsor, introduced in the House:
H.R.6433 “Protect the Flag Act”
“To render ineligible for Federal funds any institution of higher education that removes, censors, takes down, prohibits, or otherwise halts display of a flag of the United States.”

SEC. 2. Ineligibility for Federal funds.
(a) In general.—Federal funds may not be made available to an institution of higher education (as defined in section 102(a) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1002(a))) that, pursuant to an official policy of the institution to prohibit the display of the flag of the United States by the institution, removes, censors, takes down, prohibits, or otherwise halts display of a flag of the United States.
(b) Reinstatement of eligibility.—The prohibition described in subsection (a) shall cease to apply with respect to an institution described in such subsection upon complete and proper reinstatement, by the institution in its official capacity, of the flag of the United States at any and all locations on campus property (including across multiple campuses, if applicable) from which a previously displayed flag of the United States was removed, censored, taken down, prohibited, or otherwise halted from display pursuant to an official policy of the institution to prohibit the display of the flag of the United States by the institution.
