That— (1) any public rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner should be performed as written by Francis Scott Key, in the English language, to preserve its historical and cultural integrity; (2) public performances of the national anthem should reflect the original lyrics to maintain its unifying significance for the people of the United States; and (3) performers and organizers of public events are encouraged to honor the tradition of presenting The Star-Spangled Banner in its original English form, as a tribute to its historical and patriotic importance.
