This bill changes the tribal flag display rule in the state capitol rotunda from discretionary to mandatory—the nine federally recognized tribes' flags **must** now be displayed there instead of just being allowed to be displayed. The bill keeps the requirement that the specific location be determined by the commission with agreement from each tribal government, and it encourages (but doesn't require) the Legislature to hold public ceremonies honoring the flags during legislative sessions.
