Governor Katie Hobbs ordered flags at all state buildings be lowered to half-staff from sunrise to sunset Monday, May 1, in honor of Arizona Peace Officers Memorial Day.

"Today, we honor and mourn the loss of Arizona's Peace Officers who in the last year have made the ultimate sacrifice,” said Governor Hobbs. "Our law enforcement professionals put their lives on the line everyday to keep us safe and their dedication to service will have a lasting impact on the entire state. My sincere condolences to the families of these fallen heroes, your loved ones will never be forgotten."

Individuals, businesses, and other organizations are encouraged to join in this tribute.
