All flags in Nevada will be raised to full-staff for President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, Gov. Joe Lombardo announced Friday.

Flags will be raised on Monday in honor of Trump’s inauguration, and then will be lowered again to half-staff after to continue the mourning period following former President Jimmy Carter’s death, according to a statement from Lombardo’s office.
