Flag Orders 

Order a U.S. Flag, Optionally Flown Over the U.S. Capitol

We are pleased to provide flags upon request. Flags can be flown to honor family and friends of those in the First District. This page will provide you with information on how to order a United States Flag through my Hutchinson office. If you would prefer to order your flag via telephone, please contact Jeanette Suelter in my Washington, D.C. office at (202) 225-2715.

There is no limit on the number of flags you may order. Flags can be purchased in multiple sizes. All flags are sold at cost and take approximately 3 weeks for delivery.

If you choose to, you may have the flag flown over the Capitol Building. All flags flown over the Capitol are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Flags may be flown for a particular person, event, or organization, and may be flown on a specific date. If multiple flags are requested to be flown, they will all be flown on the same date and shipped at the same time. If you need flags flown on different dates, you must submit separate order requests for each separate date to fly the flags.

Here's an example of what a certificate accompanying the flag might say:

This flag was flown for John Smith in recognition of his retirement from teaching after 40 years of dedicated service.

As we do not accept credit card payments, we need all flag requests not ordered through the telephone to be sent by mail with a check. Please use the order form to specify the flags and certificate information you want, then print the resulting order request for mailing.
