Biden Signs Bill Officially Designating Bald Eagle as U.S. National Bird, Symbol for Over 240 Years
Dec 24, 2024, 11:40 PM
President Joe Biden has signed into law legislation that officially designates the bald eagle as the national bird of the United States. The bill, which amends the United States Code, was sent to Biden by Congress. The bald eagle, a symbol of the power and strength of the U.S. for over 240 years, had never been officially recognized as the national bird despite its widespread use as a national emblem on official documents, the presidential flag, military insignia, and U.S. currency. The bald eagle has been featured on the Great Seal of the United States since 1782, when the design was finalized, and is indigenous to North America.
