I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, One Nation under
God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for ALL.
And now the Texas flag. Honor the Texas Flag. I pledge Allegiance to Thee, Texas, One State under God, One and

Help Shine a Light on America's Veterans
America’s veterans are some of our nation’s bravest, hardest-working men and women. However, it’s hard to show them the appreciation they deserve when, back home and out of uniform. Greenlight A Vet is a campaign to establish visible national support for our veterans.Green is the color of hope, renewal and well-being.
“Greenlight” is also a term commonly used to activate forward movement. Change one light to green in a visible location-on your porch, in your home, or at your office-and keep it glowing every day as a symbol of appreciation and support for our veterans. Then, share your support by taking a picture of your green light and posting it using the hashtag #greenlightavet.
