Court-Approved Settlement Requires Pride Flag Be Permanently Maintained at Stonewall National Monument
A federal court‑approved settlement requires the Department of the Interior and the National Park Service to rehang and permanently maintain a Pride flag at the Stonewall National Monument in Manhattan. Under the joint filing by government and plaintiff lawyers, the National Park Service will reinstall three 3‑by‑5‑foot flags on the site’s flagpole within seven days — the U.S. flag on top, the Pride flag in the middle and the Park Service flag below — and has “confirmed their intention to maintain a Pride flag at Stonewall” except for maintenance or other practical purposes. A judge has approved the deal, formally ending the lawsuit that followed the flag’s February removal under Interior guidance that had limited flags on NPS flagpoles.
