Do former vice presidents get state funerals when they die?

Answer 1

It depends. It would be up to the current President to decide on a case by case basis. Spiro Agnew did not get a state funeral.

In the U.S., state funerals are granted by law to Presidents-elect and sitting and former Presidents, and may be granted to other individuals as designated by the sitting President. While tradition and protocol greatly influence the funeral planning, the exact sequence of events is largely determined by the family of the deceased. This decision is made once a president leaves office.
