To amend title 4, United States Code, to permit the flag of the United States to be flown at half-staff in the event of the death of the Mayor of the District of Columbia.

Allows the U.S. flag to be flown at half-staff when the Mayor of the District of Columbia dies. This bill would amend Title 4 of the United States Code, section 7(m), to add the Mayor of the District of Columbia to the list of officials whose death can trigger half-staff flag observance. The text inserts the Mayor into the same statutory language that currently covers Governors and other designated government officials.
