Membership renewal made easy online

American Legion membership for 2022-2023 is underway. And membership renewal in The American Legion can easily, and safely, be done through your www.mylegion.org account or on www.legion.org.

When your membership becomes eligible for renewal, a “Renew Now” button appears at the top right-hand page of your MyLegion.org account. Click on “Renew Now” and the amount due is displayed in “My Order Balance.”

Select “Pay Now” or “Renew Now” to proceed. American Legion members can renew online with a credit card.

RENEW ON LEGION.ORG

Once a member enters the information requested, he or she can set the account for automatic annual renewal, as well as select the option to receive email renewal notices instead of notices through the mail. If the membership is current, he or she may still choose to sign up for automatic annual renewal and/or to receive renewal notices by email only.

2023 membership card

In June 1923, the Americanism Commission called the first National Flag Conference in Washington, D.C., where more than 60 patriotic, fraternal, civic and military organizations gathered to create a standard set of guidelines relating to the flag – the U.S. Flag Code. The 2023 American Legion membership card celebrates the 100th anniversary of the first Flag Code drafted, which Congress adopted in 1942.
