Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat and chair of the National Governors Association, on Friday proclaimed that flags should be raised to full-staff on Monday.
President-elect Donald J. Trump will be administered his oath of office as President of the United States at noon Monday, Jan. 20. Meanwhile, flags had previously been ordered to remain at half-staff for 30 days as the nation mourns the death of former President Jimmy Carter.
Flags are ordered to remain at full-staff from sunrise to sunset on Monday throughout Colorado, Gov. Polis’ order reads, and then should be lowered to half-staff for the remainder of the 30 days of mourning, through Jan. 28.
