About today's flag status in Arizona
Flags are at half-staff in honor of Dolly Parton. Flags should return to full staff at sunset on September 1, 2026. Arizona's state-specific source could not be verified, so an additional or longer state order may also exist. The federal order determines the effective status while it remains active. Presidential proclamations and federal orders generally apply nationwide, while the governor can issue a separate order for state property and other covered locations in Arizona.

Order details
How half-staff orders work in Arizona
An official order normally identifies the person or event being honored, when flags should be lowered, when they return to full staff, and which locations are covered. Timing can include sunrise, sunset, noon, or exact dates, so the linked order remains the controlling instruction.
Jurisdiction
Federal vs. Arizona orders
A presidential proclamation is national and governs federal facilities. A Arizona governor's order is state-specific and can have a different reason or schedule. A state page should therefore be read together with the federal status, especially when deciding when to return a flag to full staff.
