Governor Walz Orders Flags at Half-Staff for U.S. Representative Donald McEachin

In accordance with a notice from the White House, Governor Tim Walz has ordered all Minnesota flags to be flown at half-staff at all state buildings in Minnesota effective immediately until midnight today, Tuesday, November 29, in honor and remembrance of U.S. Representative Donald McEachin of Virginia.

Representative McEachin died on Monday, November 28, at the age of 61.

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.
