March 3, 2026 - Half-Staff Alert - Maryland
This is to advise that Governor Wes Moore ordered the Maryland Flag lowered to half-staff from sunrise to sunset, tomorrow, Tuesday, March 3, 2026. This action is for Reverend Jesse Jackson, who passed away on Tuesday, February 17, 2026. Reverend Jesse Jackson was a giant of the civil rights movement and a champion for the dignity of working people. He led with love and reminded all of us of our voice and our power. Reverend Jackson was a trailblazer who never waited for permission or to ask for a seat at the table—he insisted on it, and he widened that table for generations to come.
