Pelosi Statement on President Biden’s State of the Union Address

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi released this statement after President Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union address to a Joint Session of Congress:

“President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address was a masterclass, vigorously presenting his bold vision of progress and possibilities for all of America’s families.

“It is fitting that the President opened his remarks with a forceful statement of support for Ukraine and the imperative of defending democracy at home and abroad.  It is inspiring to hear the President share his plans to build on the great American comeback that his leadership has sparked.

“President Biden’s hopeful, unifying, forward-looking vision stands in stark contrast with an extreme MAGA agenda that seeks to rip away our freedoms, rig the economy for the ultra-rich and abandon our responsibility to protect and defend.

“America is truly blessed by the wisdom, experience and steady hand of President Joe Biden.  In partnership with Democrats in Congress, let us charge forward toward President Biden’s beautiful vision for a brighter future For The People.”
