Carter, the 39th U.S. president, died on Sunday at 100 years old. President Joe Biden ordered that the flags of the United States be flown at half-staff at the White House and public buildings and grounds for a period of 30 days following Carter’s death in honor of him.

Flags will remain at half-mast and half-staff most of the month for Jimmy Carter's death. Jan. 9 will be a national day of mourning for his funeral.
