HF 2517 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to the display of flags at half-staff on public buildings.

HF 2517 requires public building custodians and boards of public officers in Iowa to fly U.S. and Iowa state flags at half-staff whenever the governor issues a proclamation directing this. The bill directly affects those responsible for managing public buildings, such as courthouses or government offices. It adds enforcement by allowing anyone to report violations to the attorney general, who can then seek court orders to ensure compliance with the governor's half-staff directives.
