This bill amends Section 1B.3 of the Code of Iowa to establish new requirements for the display of flags on public buildings. It specifies that a board of public officers is responsible for providing a suitable state flag, and the custodian of the public building is required to raise the flags of the United States and the state of Iowa on secular days when weather permits.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the national league of families POW/MIA flag must be flown at all state-owned buildings in accordance with federal rules whenever the flag of the United States is displayed. This change emphasizes the importance of recognizing and honoring prisoners of war and those missing in action by ensuring their flag is prominently displayed alongside the national and state flags.
