A state delegate in Virginia has sent a letter to the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, demanding that it remove a “rainbow” flag from the flagpole that also holds Old Glory.

“Dear President [Jeffrey M.] Lacker,” wrote state Delegate Bob Marshall, “Flying the homosexual flag just under the American flag outside Richmond’s Federal Reserve Bank building is a serious deficiency of judgment by your organization.”

Marshall said the Federal Reserve policies are supposed to “contribute to the strength and vitality of the U.S. economy,” but “a flagpole in front of a federal building is not a commercial or political message board.”

“What does flying the homosexual flag, or any other similar display, have to do with your central banking mission under the Federal Reserve Act passed by Congress?”

“The Richmond Fed’s endorsement of costly, anti-social, immoral behavior is rejected by 6,000 years of Western religious and moral teaching. You want the American people to trust your judgment in economic matters when your spokesperson celebrates an attack on public morals? Why?” Marshall continued.

“Mr.Lacker, take down that flag!”
