To commemorate the adoption of our flag, the Congress, by joint resolution approved August 3, 1949, as amended (63 Stat. 492), designated June 14 of each year as “Flag Day” and requested that the President issue an annual proclamation calling for its observance and for the display of the flag of the United States on all Federal Government buildings. The Congress also requested, by joint resolution approved June 9, 1966, as amended (80 Stat. 194), that the President annually issue a proclamation designating the week in which June 14 occurs as “National Flag Week” and call upon citizens of the United States to display the flag during that week.
為紀念我國國旗的采用，國會于1949年8月3日批準了一項聯合議案（后經修訂，63 Stat.492），將每年6月14日定為“國旗日”，并要求總統發布年度公告，號召民眾慶祝此一節日，并在聯邦政府的所有建筑物上懸掛國旗。國會還于1966年6月9日批準了另一項聯合議案（后經修訂，80 Stat. 194），要求總統每年發布公告，將６月14日所在的周宣布為“國旗周”，并號召美國公民在這一周懸掛國旗。

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim June 14, 2011, as Flag Day and the week beginning June 12, 2011, as National Flag Week. I direct the appropriate officials to display the flag on all Federal Government buildings during that week, and I urge all Americans to observe Flag Day and National Flag Week by displaying the flag. I also call upon the people of the United States to observe with pride and all due ceremony those days from Flag Day through Independence Day, also set aside by the Congress (89 Stat. 211), as a time to honor America, to celebrate our heritage in public gatherings and activities, and to publicly recite the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America.
為此，我，美利堅合眾國總統巴拉克‧奧巴馬，特此宣布2011年6月14日為國旗日，從2011年6月12日開始的一周為國旗周。我指示有關人員這一周在所有聯邦政府建筑物上懸掛國旗，并吁請所有美國人通過懸掛國旗來慶祝國旗日和國旗周。我也吁請美國民眾從國旗日到亦由國會指定的獨立紀念日（89 Stat.211）期間以所有適當典禮自豪地表達對祖國的敬意，在公開集會及活動中弘揚我們的傳統，并在公開場合向美利堅合眾國國旗宣誓效忠。

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of June, in the year of our Lord two thousand eleven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-fifth.
我謹于公元2011年，即美利堅合眾國獨立第235年6月10日，親筆在此簽名為證。

BARACK OBAMA
巴拉克‧奧巴馬
