in Pennsylvania, and around the nation, are flying at half staff today in observance of the Sept.11 terror attack 25th anniversary. Sept. 11 is officially known as Patriot Day and the National Day of Service and Remembrance in honor of those lost on Sept. 11, 2001.
Gov. Josh Shapiro ordered United States and Commonwealth flags on all Commonwealth facilities, public buildings, and grounds across the state to fly at half staff, in accordance with the United States flag code and the President’s Proclamation.
All Pennsylvanians are invited to participate in this tribute, the governor's office said in a release.
