Idaho governor orders flags to be lowered to half-staff for Sept. 11
Little
Idaho Gov. Brad Little issued a directive ordering that U.S. and state flags be lowered to half-staff for the entire day today to mark the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
“Twenty-five years after 9/11, we honor the heroes who ran toward danger, remember the innocent lives taken and recognize the extraordinary unity and patriotism that emerged from that terrible day,” Idaho Gov. Brad Little said in a statement Thursday. “Nearly a quarter of Americans alive today were born after 9/11 and never experienced it firsthand. That makes it even more important that we pass its lessons to the next generation. We must keep alive the legacy of those we lost and those who served by teaching our children to remember, to honor, and to love our country. God bless America.”
