In accordance with Executive Order #20-30, Governor Laura Kelly directed that flags on all state buildings, grounds, and facilities be flown at half-staff from sunup to sundown on Sunday, May 4, 2025, in recognition of National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Day.

“Our first responders risk their lives every day in service to our communities and Kansans,” Governor Laura Kelly said. “National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Day is a time to honor Kansas firefighters for their tireless work and ensure the ultimate sacrifice that far too many have made will never be forgotten.”
