GOP governors of at least eight states ordered flags to be flown at full-staff on Inauguration Day, bucking tradition by raising flags before the end of a customary 30-day mourning period following the death of former President Jimmy Carter.

Several Republican Governors have pledged to fly their flags at full-staff, despite President Biden’s former directive.

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey has announced that she too will be raising the American flag at all Alabama government buildings on January 20th, during Donald Trump's inauguration. Governor Ivey made this announcement shortly following Texas Governor Greg Abbott's decision to raise the American flag from half-staff to full-staff on the day of the inauguration.

Democrats are all ‘giddy’ about our magnificent American Flag potentially being at ‘half mast’ during my Inauguration. They think it’s so great” Trump posted.

Republican Gov. Jeff Landry says the “Make America Great Again” flag will be raised at the governor’s mansion in honor of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Despite the national mourning period for the late Jimmy Carter, Washington's Gov. Bob Ferguson is directing flags to be raised Monday for Inauguration Day.
