Governor Walz Orders Flags at Half Staff in Honor of September 11
Governor Tim Walz has ordered all United States and Minnesota flags to fly at half-staff at all state buildings in Minnesota on Thursday, September 11, 2025, in honor of the victims of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
*“On September 11, thousands of innocent lives were lost in an unthinkable tragedy that profoundly changed our nation,”* said Governor Walz. *“On this day of remembrance, we mourn the lives lost, honor the heroism of our first responders, and reflect on the resilience of the American people.”*
Flags are also currently lowered in honor of the lives lost at Annunciation Catholic School and will remain at half-staff through Sunday, September 14, 2025. Individuals, businesses, and other organizations are also encouraged to join in lowering their flags.
The Governor's proclamation can be found here [ [link removed] ]. He has also proclaimed September 11, 2025 as Patriot Day.
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.
