Flag Lowering - December 7, 2025 (National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day)
FROM: Bob Ferguson Governor
I hereby direct that Washington State and United States flags at all state agency facilities be lowered to half-staff on Sunday, December 7, 2025, for National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day was created by Congress in 1994 in honor of those Americans killed or injured as a result of the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
I have no objection to agencies lowering the flags at the close of business on Friday, December 5, 2025. Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business or sunset on Sunday, December 7, 2025, or first thing Monday morning, December 8th.
