Former Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid will lie in state at the U.S. Capitol Rotunda on Wednesday.
He died Dec. 28 at age 82 after fighting pancreatic cancer. His funeral in Las Vegas on Saturday included tributes by President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama. Reid served as Senate majority leader during much of Obama’s presidency.
A ceremonial arrival will begin at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. EST.
A congressional tribute will follow at 11 a.m., with remarks by leaders. The private event is open only to invited guests largely due to COVID-19 protocols. A viewing will run from 12:30 until 4 p.m. Wednesday, with a ceremonial departure at 5 p.m.
Reid was Nevada’s longest-serving senator. He also served as Nevada’s lieutenant governor after rising from poverty to become one of the state’s leading politicians.
Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are expected to pay tribute to Reid at the Capitol on Wednesday — Harris in the late morning and Biden in the afternoon.

Will there be a bust of him placed in the Congressional chambers?
I know a few I’d like to bust 🙂
THE only place he needs to lie, is DEEP IN the nearest trash heap!
lay the old hammer and sickle ussr flag on his coffin.
And display him in the mens room near the toilet where he flushed down most of our tax dollars. If the Republicans held the House today he never would have made it to the curb for the Washington garbage men to pick up. God help us when Pelosi kicks the bucket, whose coffin should be shaped in the form of Bozo’s Bucket Number 6, and her body on display in the peanut gallery right next to the clapping trained squad seals.
The day soros kicks the bucket, will be a great day!
Former Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid will lie when ever possible, did lie a whole bunch, and if he continues,” Satan” will not like it. Especially when he tells him he did everything he could to make the middle class better.
Since he was the liar of the State, the Democrats feel he deserves to lie in State where he told most of them.
If he “lies in state” as easily as he lied in congress he should be a very attractive corpse. Not very nice I know, but I couldn’t help it.
The biggest liar is a man who awakens a woman’s love with no intentions of loving her, the second biggest liar is a man who awakens an American citizens greed, with every intention of politically enslaving him to it.,,,,Enter Harry Reid who through no coincidence rhymes with greed.
The garbage dump would be more appropriate, just say’n
Which in 10,000 years will all turn into petroleum which can be turned into exhaust and pollution, which what he really was in life. It’s called Democrat Secular reincarnation where nobody now can ever drive their gasless cars anywhere in the nation.
Lets see, Didnt Rosa Parks ,Civil Rights activist, also lie In the Capital Rotunga and Didn’t ” The Reverent Al Sharpton Appear too, I hadn’t heard if Al Sharpton will make a appearance at the Rotunga for Harry Reed or Not , Maybe, As the Reverent Wright once Said , ” The Chickens Have Came Home To Roast ” Andd Al Sharpton will again appear as he once did for Rosa Parks when she also layed In State at the Capital….
Reed was one of the biggest liars in Congress and that by itself takes some doing!
Piglosi has LONG since surpassed his level of lying.
