Flag Steward - Honors and Awakens Our Flag to Inform and Inspire Citizens

There is quite a bit of talk about the recent stock market decline which reminds of a significant event during a much more difficult economic time for America. On March 8, 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Emergency Relief Act to help kickstart the U.S. economy towards pulling out of the Great Depression. The "New Deal" programs that were created with this law got able workers back in action building highways, schools, hospitals, airports, and more for American communities. Right here in Colorado, we have a shining example of the great works done by "New Deal" programs - our stunning Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
In God We Trust
(Official motto of the United States of America)
