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.
为纪念我国国旗的采用，国会于1949年8月3日批准了一项联合议案（后经修订，63 Stat.492），将每年6月14日定为“国旗日”，并要求总统发布年度公告，号召民众庆祝此一节日，并在联邦政府的所有建筑物上悬挂国旗。国会还于1966年6月9日批准了另一项联合议案（后经修订，80 Stat. 194），要求总统每年发布公告，将６月14日所在的周宣布为“国旗周”，并号召美国公民在这一周悬挂国旗。

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.
为此，我，美利坚合众国总统巴拉克‧奥巴马，特此宣布2011年6月14日为国旗日，从2011年6月12日开始的一周为国旗周。我指示有关人员这一周在所有联邦政府建筑物上悬挂国旗，并吁请所有美国人通过悬挂国旗来庆祝国旗日和国旗周。我也吁请美国民众从国旗日到亦由国会指定的独立纪念日（89 Stat.211）期间以所有适当典礼自豪地表达对祖国的敬意，在公开集会及活动中弘扬我们的传统，并在公开场合向美利坚合众国国旗宣誓效忠。

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.
我谨于公元2011年，即美利坚合众国独立第235年6月10日，亲笔在此签名为证。

BARACK OBAMA
巴拉克‧奥巴马
