A funeral service for former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, who died earlier this month, is set for next week in Washington, DC.
The late American politician and businessman died of complications of pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease on Nov. 3, his relatives said. He was 84.
Cheney served under former President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2009 and was considered one of the most powerful and controversial men to hold the vice president role, in large part because of his role in leading the push to invade Iraq in 2003. A longtime force in Republican politics, Cheney became a critic of President Donald Trump after the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection, saying he voted for former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, USA TODAY previously reported.
Here's what to know about the former vice president's funeral, including when it will take place and who plans to speak.
