By Executive Order of Governor Brian Kemp - flags on all state buildings and grounds ordered lowered to half-staff

Mr. Charles "Charlie" Kirk was killed in a tragic and despicable act of political violence while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025; and ...

Political hate and violence have no place in our democracy, and acts such as the one today that took Mr. Kirk's life should be condemned in the strongest possible terms; and ...

That in honor of Mr. Kirk and in conjunction with the Proclamation of the President of the United States of America, the flag of the United States of America and the flag of the State of Georgia shall be flown at half-staff on all state buildings and grounds from now until sunset on Sunday, September 14, 2025.
