Reduction to local government aid establishment to a county or city that uses the incorrect state flag

This bill proposes reducing state financial aid by 10% for any Minnesota county or city that displays a state flag different from the officially certified design. To enforce this, the state's commissioner of revenue would cut aid payments for the year following any instance where a local government uses the incorrect flag, and affected localities must notify the commissioner annually by December 31. The penalty applies specifically to aid distributed under state statutes and would only take effect starting with payments made in 2027.
