Decorah city council denies MAGA flag request

An application to the Decorah City Council from the Winneshiek County Republican Party to fly "Make America Great Again" flags along Water Street in Decorah on Flag Day has been denied.

City Council members voted 4-3 to deny the request according to Decorahnews.com; Mayor Lorraine Borowski questioned why a second flag would be appropriate when the American flag would already be flying.

The Republican Party wanted to fly the flags as part of a birthday party for President Trump at noon at Water Street Park on Flag Day, but the city said the application did not meet a 30-day deadline enacted as part of the city's new flag display policy.
