Flags Flown Over the Capitol

My Washington, D.C. office staff will be happy to help Delaware residents purchase an American flag flown over the U.S. Capitol to commemorate a special occasion, event or holiday.

Along with the flag, you will receive a certificate stating that the flag was flown over the Capitol. The certificate will include the name of the person or organization for whom the flag was flown, the occasion for which it was flown and the date it was flown.

To order a flag, print and fill out the Flag Request Form . Please make your check or money order payable to "Keeper of the Stationary" and return with the completed form to:

Senator Tom Carper
U.S. Senate
Attn: Flag Coordinator
Washington, DC 20510

My office cannot accept flag orders via the Internet or over the phone. A check or money order for the complete amount must be received before an order can be processed. Send order form and payment at least four weeks prior to the fly date. Once a date has passed, it is no longer possible to purchase a flag flown on that date. Allow an additional four to six weeks after the fly date for delivery. Only American flags can be purchased and flown over the Capitol.
