POLICY WIRE — Washington, D.C. — The funeral service for the late Senator Lindsey Graham will take place today, with former President Donald Trump delivering a tribute. The ceremony, honoring the long-serving Republican lawmaker who represented South Carolina for over two decades, is expected to draw a high-profile attendance.

Among the dignitaries confirmed to attend are Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The service will be held at a prominent location in Washington, D.C., reflecting the significant impact Graham had on both national and international politics.

Graham, known for his staunch conservative views — and influential role in the Senate, passed away last week. His contributions to legislation — and foreign policy will be remembered during the service. The event will also feature remarks from other political figures and close associates of the late senator.

Security will be tight given the high-profile nature of the attendees. The service will be broadcast live on major news networks, allowing the public to pay their respects to the former senator.
