In the summer of 2007, a bill was introduced to the state legislature to add "Pennsylvania" to the bottom of the flag in golden letters. The Pennsylvania House of Representatives voted in favor of the change. The legislation was proposed by State Representative Tim Solobay. The Senate has not yet taken action on the bill.

William Penn was the founder of Province of Pennsylvania, that became the current Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. During his government, the city of Philadelphia was planned and developed. Moreover, he was also an early champion of democracy and religious freedom.
In his honor, Pennsylvania received the "The Quaker State" nickname, in reference to Penn's belonging in the quaker moviment.
