Proclamation 9369 of November 15, 2015
Honoring the Victims of the Attack in Paris,
France
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
The American people stand with the people of France.
Friday's terror attacks were not just an attack on
Paris; they were an attack on all humanity and the
universal values we share, including the bonds of
libert[eacute], [eacute]galit[eacute], and
fraternit[eacute]. These values will endure far beyond
any terrorists or their hateful vision. The United
States and our allies do not give in to fear, nor will
we be divided, nor will anyone change our way of life.
We will do whatever it takes, working with nations and
peoples around the world, to bring the perpetrators of
these attacks to justice, and to go after terrorists
who threaten our people.
As a mark of respect for the victims of the senseless
acts of violence perpetrated on November 13, 2015, in
Paris, France, by the authority vested in me as
President of the United States by the Constitution and
the laws of the United States of America, I hereby
order that the flag of the United States shall be flown
at half-staff at the White House and upon all public
buildings and grounds, at all military posts and naval
stations, and on all naval vessels of the Federal
Government in the District of Columbia and throughout
the United States and its Territories and possessions
until sunset, November 19, 2015. I also direct that the
flag shall be flown at half-staff for the same length
of time at all United States embassies, legations,
consular offices, and other facilities abroad,
including all military facilities and naval vessels and
stations.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
fifteenth day of November, in the year of our Lord two
thousand fifteen, and of the Independence of the United
States of America the two hundred and fortieth.
(Presidential Sig.)
