More Than A Flag

A 2021 survey reported Utahns value the history of our current flag, which features our state's seal, but a majority of respondents didn't feel like the banner represented them. Few Utahns can draw our current flag. And as Sen. McCay suggests, few Utahns currently display our flag. The idea of creating a new flag isn't an exercise in wokeness or about canceling history. Instead, the proposed new design draws upon symbols in Utah's state seal and residents' submissions and suggestions. The aim was to create a design that's easier to reproduce and recognize at a distance, a design that Utahns can rally around. And to create a new state flag design that more Utahns will be proud to display. www.flag.utah.govSee our website for privacy information.
