Yes, the US Mint still manufactures the half-dollar coin, though production has significantly decreased over time and is rarely seen.

While they are still minted, they are only sold in rolls or bags directly from the Mint -- they are no longer released to circulation through the Federal Reserve Banks.

When did they stop making all silver half dollars?

Half dollars have never been made out of pure silver but all half dollars minted before 1965 are 90% silver, halves dated 1965-1970 are 40% silver. Circulation issue halves dated 1971 and later are copper nickel and thus worth 50 cents. The US still makes commemorative half dollars such as the 90% silver proof half dollars made from 1992-present.
