An Act relative to the flying of the flag of the Commonwealth at half staff on state buildings and installations

This bill requires the flag of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to be flown at half-staff on all state buildings and installations every September 11. The provision specifically honors the Americans who died in the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and mandates that the flag remain at half-staff until sunset each year. By adding this requirement to existing state law, the legislation ensures a consistent annual tribute across the state government.
