What it is

Proclamation 10951 is a ceremonial presidential proclamation issued June 13, 2025, fulfilling a standing congressional requirement that the President annually designate Flag Day and National Flag Week. It directs federal officials to fly the U.S. flag on all federal government buildings during the designated week and encourages public observance.

What it changes

Nothing changes in law or regulation; this is a recurring annual proclamation with no new policy. It officially designates June 14, 2025 as Flag Day and the week of June 8–14, 2025 as National Flag Week. Federal buildings are directed to display the flag during that week, consistent with every prior year’s proclamation under the same 1949 and 1966 congressional resolutions. It also reiterates the existing congressional designation of the period from Flag Day (June 14) through Independence Day (July 4) as a time for public ceremonies and Pledge of Allegiance recitations.

Who is affected

Federal agency officials are directed to ensure the U.S. flag is flown on federal government buildings during National Flag Week. All U.S. residents are encouraged — though not legally required — to display the flag and participate in public observances between Flag Day and Independence Day.
