Former President Jimmy Carter's funeral will be held in Washington early next month as the culmination of roughly a week of remembrances, President Biden announced in a proclamation late Sunday.
Carter's state funeral will take place at Washington National Cathedral on Jan. 9, 2025. Biden is expected to deliver one of the eulogies, having previously said Carter asked him to do so.
Flags will fly at half-staff over all government buildings for 30 days after Carter's death, Biden said in his proclamation.
