HSB 244 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act concerning the display of the national league of families POW/MIA flag.

This bill requires all state-owned buildings in Iowa to display the National League of Families POW/MIA flag on secular days when weather permits, positioned second in precedence directly below or adjacent to the U.S. flag. It mandates that custodians of public buildings raise this flag in accordance with federal rules to honor Iowa veterans who are missing in action or prisoners of war. The law modifies existing flag-display requirements to specifically include this flag alongside the U.S. and Iowa state flags. It applies directly to state building custodians and does not alter other flag-display practices.
