In the early morning of the 19th, US President Trump issued an announcement ordering the nation to lower the flag to pay tribute to Ginsberg.
The White House issued a statement, appraising her as "the giant of American law."
The statement said that Ginsberg has served in the Supreme Court for more than 27 years and she is known for her keen thinking and strong opposition.
Her judicial rulings on equal rights for women and the disabled have inspired all Americans.
At the nomination hearing 27 years ago, then Democratic Senator Biden sat opposite Ginsberg.
Biden issued a statement on the 18th that Ginsberg is an "American hero" and she represents a firm voice in the unremitting pursuit of equality and justice under the law.
Ginsberg was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1933. He has devoted his life to the women's equal rights movement and is regarded as a representative of the "liberal" in the judicial circle.

According to US media statistics, Ginsberg has participated in more than 300 lawsuits in his lifetime, fighting for equal rights for women.
Regarding the women's equal rights movement, she once said that her role is like a "kindergarten teacher" because in her era, judges did not believe that there was gender discrimination.
"One of the ways I make them aware of this problem is to ask them what kind of world they want their daughter and granddaughter to live in."
Ginsberg was nominated by then President Clinton to become a Supreme Court justice in 1993.
Clinton also mourned Ginsberg through social media on the 18th, "Her life and landmark views have brought us one step closer to perfection. Her strong opposition reminds us that it is a risk to deviate from the Constitution."
The "New York Times" commented that Ginsberg's statement of his ruling was very rigorous, listening to the opinions of the majority and considering the views of opponents.
She likes to use simple and clear declarative sentences, and use the least legal terms to express.
"Her objections, especially those announced in the judge's bench, have attracted the most attention."
In addition to the textual style of the ruling opinion, Ginsberg's way of expressing different positions and attitudes with different lace collars is also popular with people.
She is dressed in a black judge's robe, decorated with a silver lace collar symbolizing "opposing opinions", which is even more popular.

After putting down the bouquets, many people said softly "thank you" and left silently.
"She is a fighter, and her story has always inspired me, whether it's her legal career or her fight against cancer." said Laura, a sophomore who majored in law.
