Former President Jimmy Carter's casket arrived at the U.S. Capitol Tuesday afternoon for a military tribute and to lie in state in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda.
The streets of Washington, D.C., with the ground covered in snow from a recent storm, were quiet as his casket passed. Members of Congress, Vice President Kamala Harris, Cabinet secretaries and Carter's family members are paying their respects in a service in the Capitol Rotunda.
"Today, we gather to begin a final farewell to Jimmy Carter — Navy veteran, peanut farmer, governor of Georgia, and president of the United States," Senate Majority Leader John Thune, a South Dakota Republican, said, opening the service. "Sunday school teacher, Nobel prize winner, advocate for peace and human rights, and first and foremost, a faithful servant of his creator, and of his fellow man."
