Did the U.S. Capitol lower its flag to half-staff during the week of July 22, 2024, because President Joe Biden had died? No, that's not true: The flag was lowered on July 22, 2024, to honor Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, who died July 19, 2024, a representative for House Speaker Mike Johnson told Lead Stories. Beyond notification that Biden had recovered from COVID, there was no other White House statement about the president's health at the time of writing, and Lead Stories could not find any proof in an online news search to substantiate the claim.
