Proposed bill would bring back old Minnesota state flag

(St. Paul, MN) -- Twenty-two House Republicans have proposed a bill to bring back the "historic" retired Minnesota state flag. The bill allows flying this flag at the Capitol, state properties, official state holidays, and during the legislative session. This comes after the flag was changed from showing a Native American riding away while a white settler plows his field to a two-tone blue flag featuring Minnesota's shape and a white star. The change went into effect on May 11th last year. If this bill is approved, the old state flag would come back into play on May 11th, 2026.
