Flag Lowering - May 25, 2026 (Memorial Day)

Gov. Bob Ferguson hereby directs that Washington State and United States flags at all state agency facilities be lowered to half-staff on Monday, May 25, 2026, in recognition of Memorial Day. 

This federal holiday is in remembrance of those who lost their lives while serving in the country’s armed forces.

I have no objection to agencies lowering the flags at the close of business on Friday, May 22, 2026. Flags should remain at half-staff until noon on Monday, May 25, 2026, or first thing Tuesday morning, May 26, 2026.

Other government entities, individuals, and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
