The flag of the state of Nebraska is a blue cloth charged with the state seal. The current design was adopted in 1925. A previous design submitted in 1921 by a New York architect was rejected by the state government. The official designation of the design as the state flag occurred in 1963; Nebraska was one of the last states to adopt an official flag.
The Nebraska flag was rated in a survey by the North American Vexillological Association as 71st out of 72 U.S. and Canadian flags, making it the second-worst flag in the survey. The worst-ranked flag, the flag of Georgia, has since been changed. In 2002, the Nebraska Legislature's Government, Military and Veterans Affairs Committee discussed a bill that would have created a commission that would suggest new flag designs to the Legislature. The flag was not changed.

GOLDENROD NEBRASKA STATE FLAG PROPOSAL / Evoking the state flower (goldenrod), the husking of corn, Great Plains sunshine, the prairie and the sandhills, this simple proposal follows all of the principles of good flag design, as well as those of traditional European heraldry. The thirteen piles (or points) reflect the thirteen stripes on the American flag. In technical heraldic terminology it could be blazoned (or described) as: Per bend, piley of thirteen throughout vert and or.
