The following is the White House’s published text. Wording is reproduced without editorial corrections; the surrounding explanation is separate from the presidential document.
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
As a mark of respect for the memory of Dolly Parton, I hereby order, by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, that the flag of the United States shall be flown at half-staff at the White House and upon all public buildings and grounds, at all military posts and naval stations, and on all naval vessels of the Federal Government in the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its Territories and possessions until sunset, September 1, 2026.
I also direct that the flag shall be flown at half‑staff for the same period at all United States embassies, legations, consular offices, and other facilities abroad, including all military facilities and naval vessels and stations.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-fifth day of August, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and fifty-first.
DONALD J. TRUMP
Official sources and archive notes
- Original White House proclamation
- Federal Register record — Proclamation 11057
- Official Federal Register PDF on GovInfo
The signed date and flag instruction were cross-checked against the official Federal Register PDF. Federal Register publication can occur after a proclamation was issued or after its flag-display period ended. This entry preserves that distinction.
This record is part of FORTISVEX’s archive for January 20, 2025 through October 25, 2026. It does not cover President Trump’s first term or state-only orders. Presidential source text is a U.S. federal government work reproduced for historical reference; reproduction does not imply government endorsement of FORTISVEX.
