Capitol Flags

Photo of an American flag flying over the Capitol BuildingAs a service for Arkansans, Senator Mark Pryor can request that an American flag be flown over the United States Capitol on any day of the year. Accompanying a requested flag will be a certificate of authenticity from the Architect of the Capitol. The certificate includes the name of the person or organization for whom the flag was flown, the date and the occasion. The flag and certificate make great gifts for honoring special occasions and anniversaries.

To request that a flag be flown, please complete the order form and print it out. Then, mail the order form along with a check for the correct amount made payable to The Keeper of the Stationery to the following address:

Attention: Flag Request
The Honorable Mark Pryor
The River Market
500 Clinton Ave, Suite 401
Little Rock , AR 72201

Due to increased security, mail screening and high demand, we ask that you send the flag request 4-7 weeks in advance of the date you wish the flag to be flown. Once Senator Pryor's office receives your check, the flag will be purchased and then given to the Architect of the Capitol's Flag Office. The Architect of the Capitol's Flag Office is responsible for flying the flag, printing the certificate and mailing the flag to the recipient. Please note that the processing and delivery of your flag may require another 4-6 weeks after the date of flying.

*Every effort will be made by the Senate Flag Office to fly the flag on the date requested; however, due to high demand on certain dates it may not be possible in all cases. Some dates that have traditionally been in high demand include: New Years Day, Valentine's Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, September 11 th , Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, President's Day, and Christmas Day.

* Payment should be made in checks made out to "Keeper of the Stationary." Cash or blank checks will not be accepted.

*  Payment in the wrong amount will substantially delay the receipt of the flag.

*  Flag requests cannot be processed without payment.

 

   

*  Plan for a minimum of two months between the order date and the date the flag is received.

*  If there is a specific date you would like the flag flown, you should plan to mail the check at least 4 weeks in advance.

*  If the flag is going to be displayed indoors, choose a cotton flag. It looks nicer.

*  If the flag is going to be flown outdoors, choose a nylon flag. It is more durable.

*  If you are not from Arkansas, you will get your flag faster by contacting your home state Senator or your Representative. Requests from Arkansas are always processed as our first priority.
