In accordance with the President’s proclamation, Governor Chris Sununu has directed flags on all public buildings and grounds in the State of New Hampshire to fly at half-staff beginning immediately until sunset, October 30, 2023, as a mark of respect for the victims of the domestic terror attack in Lewiston, Maine.

“Valerie and I are heartbroken at the senseless act of violence in Lewiston, and are thinking of the victims and their families during this horrific time,” said Governor Chris Sununu. “The State of New Hampshire stands with the people of Maine — they are our friends, families, and neighbors. State officials have been in constant contact with our counterparts in Maine, and have been assisting in the response and manhunt since last evening. We will continue to provide as many resources as necessary so that justice is served.”
