U.S. flags purchased by government agencies in Kentucky will have to be made in America under a measure passed by the state legislature. State Sen. Gary Tapp, R-Shelbyville, sponsor of the bill, said it would affect both U.S. and Kentucky flags. Minnesota and Tennessee have passed similar laws. International trade agreements pose problems for such movements at the federal level, but individual states generally do not have those concerns.
