Congress asks the President to declare a National Flag Week each year, covering whichever week June 14 falls in, and to urge people to fly the American flag during that week.
This section is a request to the President about National Flag Week.
It asks the President to issue a proclamation every year that does two things: (1) names the week containing June 14 as National Flag Week; and (2) calls on citizens to display the United States flag during that week.
This is a "request" to the President rather than a command, and the section does not create any enforceable duty.

designating the week in which June 14 falls as National Flag Week; and
