Bob Dole to lie in state in the Capitol on Thursday

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Former senator, presidential candidate and war veteran Bob Dole will lie in state in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda on Thursday, Democratic leaders announced Monday.

Dole died in his sleep at home in Washington, D.C., early Sunday. He was 98. Thursday will be the senator's final trip to the building where he spent 30 years serving in both the House and Senate. Lying in state in the Capitol Rotunda is reserved for prestigious lawmakers and citizens.

Dole was honored by his former Senate colleagues Monday.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell commended Dole's career fighting for food security and those with disabilities. McConnell said Dole was a "genuine hero from Kansas who helped satisfy our nation's thirst for leadership, who was steeped in homespun American values and proud of it."
