INDIANAPOLIS (WLS) — American flags in Indiana will fly at full-staff Monday, January 20 despite a national order to fly flags at half-staff in mourning of former President Jimmy Carter.
Indiana Governor Mike Braun announced the order Thursday.
The state will fly flags at full-staff from sunrise to sunset Monday in observance of President-elect Donald Trump's Inauguration Day.
The flags will return to half-staff Tuesday until the 30-day national order in observance of Carter's death issued by President Joe Biden ends.
Trump has previously expressed frustration that flags would be flying at half-staff in many states when he takes office.
