What this seal means
The circular MAST seal means Mast created this record from an official source and normalized its schedule, scope, and details for easier reference.
Mast interpretation
Governor Greg Gianforte and First Lady Susan Gianforte issued a statement on the passing of Dolly Parton.
The source says the flags are to fly at half-staff pursuant to President Donald J. Trump’s proclamation. This indicates the order is tied to the presidential proclamation rather than a separate state-specific date range in the visible text.
The item appears on August 25, 2026, but the source text provided does not give a separate start or end time for the half-staff period. No additional schedule details are stated in the visible source text.
This extraction reflects only the half-staff order explicitly referenced in the source and the reason named there.
The title, summary, or detailed analysis was prepared with AI assistance.
