Ruth Bader Ginsburg to become first woman to lie in state

The late Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will lie in state at the U.S. Capitol on Friday, becoming the first woman in history so honored. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Monday that Ginsburg's casket would be placed in National Statuary Hall. Thirty-four men have lain in state since 1852. Civil rights icon Rosa Parks, who was not a public official, was lain in "honor" at the Capitol in 2005.
