Flags to Remain at Half-Staff Through Sunday, September 14

Governor Tim Walz has directed all United States and Minnesota flags at state buildings in Minnesota to remain at half-staff until sunset on Sunday, September 14, the day of celebration for the life of Harper Moyski, in honor and remembrance of the lives lost to gun violence at Annunciation Catholic School.

Individuals, businesses, and other organizations are also encouraged to join in lowering their flags.

Flags at Half-Staff

In keeping with appropriate flag etiquette and U.S. Code, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz may
order the state flag to be flown at half-staff under very limited circumstances. He may also order the national flag to be flown at half-staff on state property only. A state flag on state property is required by law to be flown at half-staff if the national flag is flown at half-staff.
