Reminder: Flags to Return to Full-Staff Today

This is a reminder that all United States and Minnesota flags at all state buildings in the State of Minnesota should return to full-staff at sunset today, Wednesday, February 28, 2024, following the memorial service for Police Officers Paul Elmstrand and Matthew Ruge, and Burnsville Firefighter/Paramedic Adam Finseth.

The Governor's original proclamation is linked here for reference.

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.
