== Flag Act of 1777 ==
The Flag Act of 1777 () was passed by the Second Continental Congress on June 14, 1777, in response to a petition made by an American Indian nation on June 3 for "an American Flag."〔Mastai, pg 43. "Three strings of wampum" were sent with the petition to cover the cost of the flag.〕 As a result, June 14 is now celebrated as Flag Day in the United States.
=== Text ===
:''Resolved,'' That the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation.
