What’s in it

This bill requires the custodian and the board of public officers of a public building to comply with a proclamation issued by the governor for the flags of the United States and the state of Iowa to be flown at half-staff. The bill allows a person to report alleged violations to the attorney general, who may initiate a legal action to obtain compliance with the bill’s provisions.
