Biden Signs Bipartisan Legislation on December 24, 2024, Officially Designating Bald Eagle as National Bird of the U.S.
Dec 30, 2024, 07:30 PM
President Biden has officially designated the bald eagle as the national bird of the United States, signing the law on December 24, 2024. Although the bald eagle has served as a national symbol since 1782, this marks the first time it has been formally recognized as the national bird. The bipartisan legislation, which was supported by various members of Congress, addresses a long-standing oversight in American law. The bald eagle, with its distinctive white head and yellow beak, symbolizes American ideals and has been a prominent emblem since the presidency of George Washington. The legislation was championed by several lawmakers, including Senator Amy Klobuchar and Congressman Brad Finstad, who expressed pride in this historic recognition.
