McCain will lie in state at the Arizona Capitol on Wednesday before lying in state at the U.S. Capitol building.

He will receive a full dress funeral service at the National Cathedral later this week and will be buried at the U.S. Naval Academy, from which he graduated in 1958, on Sunday.

The White House has not released a formal statement on the 81-year-old senator’s death. Instead, Trump tweeted condolences to McCain’s family, avoiding praise of the senator.

Trump reportedly rejected a White House statement praising McCain. The White House briefly lowered its flags to half-staff before returning them to full staff less than 48 hours after McCain’s death.
