Gov. Kim Reynolds has ordered all flags in Iowa to be lowered to half-staff immediately to honor and remember the victims in the Nashville, TN, school shooting yesterday. Reports indicate six victims, three children, and three adults died in the shooting Monday. The governor’s order is issued in conjunction with President Biden’s proclamation to lower all United States flags to half-staff. Flags will be at half-staff on the State Capitol Building and on flag displays in the Capitol Complex. Flags will also be at half-staff on all public buildings, grounds, and facilities throughout the state. Flags are ordered to be at half-staff until Friday, March 31. Individuals, businesses, schools, municipalities, counties, and other government subdivisions are encouraged to fly flags at half-staff for the same length of time.
