Govenor Kim Reynolds is ordering all flags to be flown at half-staff tomorrow (Wednesday) in honor of Patriot Day and those who lost their lives on the Sept. 11th terrorist attacks. Reynolds says “We will never forget the attack on our country and our freedom 23 years ago. Nearly 3,000 Americans died in the national tragedy, including hundreds of first responders who ran in to save the victims of an evil, unspeakable attack on innocent people. I stand with every American on Patriot Day to honor and forever remember the thousands who senselessly lost their lives and their families who will always long for their loved ones. You will never be forgotten.” Flags will be at half-staff from sunrise to sunset on the State Capitol Building, the flag display at the Capitol Complex and on all public buildings, grounds, and facilities throughout the state. Individuals, businesses, schools, municipalities, and other government subdivisions are encouraged to fly the flag at half-staff for the same length of time as a sign of respect.
