                Proclamation 10677 of November 21, 2023

                
Death of Rosalynn Carter

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                Throughout her life as First Lady of Georgia and First 
                Lady of the United States, Rosalynn Carter exemplified 
                hope, warmth, and a steadfast commitment to doing all 
                she could to address many of our society's greatest 
                needs. She was a champion for equal rights and 
                opportunities for women and girls; an advocate for 
                mental health and wellness for all; and a supporter of 
                the often unseen and uncompensated caregivers of our 
                children, aging loved ones, and people with 
                disabilities. Above all, the deep love shared between 
                Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter is the definition of 
                partnership, and their humble leadership is the 
                definition of patriotism.

                As a mark of respect for the memory of Rosalynn Carter, 
                by the authority vested in me as President of the 
                United States by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States of America, I hereby order that the flag 
                of the United States shall be flown at half-staff at 
                the White House and upon all public buildings and 
                grounds, at all military posts and naval stations, and 
                on all naval vessels of the Federal Government in the 
                District of Columbia and throughout the United States 
                and its Territories and possessions from November 25, 
                2023, until sunset, on the day of interment. I also 
                direct that the flag shall be flown at half-staff for 
                the same length of time at all United States embassies, 
                legations, consular offices, and other facilities 
                abroad, including all military facilities and naval 
                vessels and stations.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                twenty-first day of November, in the year of our Lord 
                two thousand twenty-three, and of the Independence of 
                the United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                eighth.
                <GRAPHIC(S) NOT AVAILABLE IN TIFF FORMAT>
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
