How is the Texas flag flown with the US flag?

Any state flag should be flown below or level with the US Flag, but never above it. If it is on the same level it should be on the right, this includes Texas. The rumor that Texas is the only state that is allowed to fly at level with the US Flag is just that a rumor and an urban myth.

Should the US flag be flown on top?

In the US it should. It is the flag of the United States. There are certainly no other national flags that should ever be flown above the US flag anywhere within the US. It would be like saying that the other country has preeminence over the US, even in US territory. That would be ignorant and disrespectful, and possibly even illegal. Can you imagine going to any other country, and flying the US flag there, above the flag of that country? It may not be a formal declaration of war, but in the eyes of many it would be very close.


What state in the US is allowed to fly their flag higher than the US flag?

I know it's Texas. I forget how many flags have flown. The US flag for sure. Spain. The Republic of Texas (an independent nation). The Confederacy during the Civil War. Probably a few others. It's not Texas. Louisiana has had 10 flags fly over it in it's lifetime. Two of which were it's own country. The Republic of West Florida and the Republic of Louisiana. The confederacy, Britain, Spain, Old France, New France, the US, The Louisiana Flag
