                Proclamation 10643 of September 29, 2023

                
Death of Dianne Feinstein

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                Senator Dianne Feinstein was a pioneering American and 
                a true trailblazer. In San Francisco, she showed 
                enormous poise and courage in the wake of tragedy, and 
                became a powerful voice for American values. In the 
                United States Senate, she turned passion into purpose, 
                and led the fight to ban assault weapons, also making 
                her mark on everything from national security to the 
                environment to protecting civil liberties. Senator 
                Feinstein was a role model for so many Americans and 
                she had an immense impact on younger female leaders for 
                whom she generously opened doors. She was a historic 
                figure, and our country will benefit from her legacy 
                for generations.

                As a mark of respect for the memory of Senator Dianne 
                Feinstein, by the authority vested in me as President 
                of the United States by the Constitution and the laws 
                of the United States of America, I hereby order that 
                the flag of the United States shall be flown at half-
                staff at the White House and upon all public buildings 
                and grounds, at all military posts and naval stations, 
                and on all naval vessels of the Federal Government in 
                the District of Columbia and throughout the United 
                States and its Territories and possessions until 
                sunset, on the day of interment. I also direct that the 
                flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same length 
                of time at all United States embassies, legations, 
                consular offices, and other facilities abroad, 
                including all military facilities and naval vessels and 
                stations.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                twenty-ninth day of September, in the year of our Lord 
                two thousand twenty-three, and of the Independence of 
                the United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                eighth.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
