Gov. Brown orders flags to half-staff to honor Va. Beach victims
In honor of the victims of the tragedy in Virginia Beach, Va., Governor Kate Brown ordered all flags at public institutions throughout Oregon be flown at half-staff beginning immediately until sunset on Tuesday.
” Words cannot express the sense of loss yet another tragic shooting brings to Dan and me, ” Brown said in a brief statement Sunday. ” No one should have to face the fear of gun violence anywhere, and especially not at work, at school, or at their place of worship. ”
The full Presidential Proclamation is available on the White House’s website.
