In Huntington Beach, California, voters approved Charter Amendment No. 2, which restricts the flags that can be flown on city-owned properties.
Only certain flags are permitted, including the U.S. flag, state and city flags, POW-MIA flag, armed forces flags, and the Olympic flag during the Summer Games.
The amendment is seen as a response to the pride flag, which the council had previously approved to fly annually in June.
