Mast interpretation
Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota issued a half-staff order honoring Reverend Jesse Louis Jackson, Sr., whose life and legacy are described in the proclamation as spanning civil rights, economic justice, human dignity, civic participation, and advocacy for communities across the United States.
The proclamation states that Reverend Jackson passed away peacefully in February 2026 and that his work touched Minnesota in several ways, including advocacy for farmers facing foreclosure, encouragement for young Minnesotans to register to vote, and solidarity with communities following the killings of Philando Castile, George Floyd, and Daunte Wright.
The order directs that all United States flags and Minnesota flags be flown at half-staff at all state buildings in the State of Minnesota from sunrise on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, to sunset on Thursday, February 26, 2026.
This order applies statewide to all state buildings in Minnesota. The source does not limit the order to specific counties, cities, or facilities beyond state buildings generally.
