(Des Moines, IA) -- Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds is ordering flags to fly at half-staff to honor Queen Elizabeth. The order takes effect immediately and will continue thru internment, and is in line with President Biden's proclamation to lower all U-S flags to half staff thru internment. Flags will be at half-staff on the State Capitol Building and on flag displays in the Capitol Complex. Flags will also be half-staff on all public buildings, grounds and facilities throughout the state. Individuals, businesses, schools, municipalities, counties, and other government subdivisions are encouraged to fly the flags at half-staff for the same length of time.

“Today we recognize the life and legacy of Queen Elizabeth II,” said Gov. Reynolds. “She was a remarkable and steadfast woman who fought side by side with the United States through some of the Free World’s most trying times. I’ll always admire her fortitude, love of freedom, and tenacity that has inspired other women in leadership. Kevin and I join with Iowans in sharing our condolences to the Royal Family.”
