No state of the Union address

Despite the fact that his comments are given to a joint congress meeting and Trump was invited by Johnson, there is no technical point of view of the Union this evening. This is because Trump was only sworn in two months ago.

“It is my clear honor and my great privilege to invite you to address a joint congress meeting in the chamber of the US representative house on Tuesday, March 4, 2025 to share her first vision in America for our legislative future,” wrote Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, to the President in January.

The US constitution calls on the presidents “to give the Union's congress information and to recommend their measures to how they judge and expediently judge”. These addresses usually take place close to the beginning of a calendar year. After a president has been in office for about a year.

Refusing speech by Democrats

With regard to a state of the union, the opposing party will keep a contradictional speech on Tuesday. Senator Elissa Slotkin from Michigan will have the honor and use her time to emphasize how Trump's policy affects ordinary Americans.

“The public expects executives to compensate for what actually happens in our country,” said Slotkin in an explanation. “From our economic security to our national security, we have to take a way forward that improves the life of the people in the country that we all love, and I look forward to losing it out.”

Democratic NO shows, special guests and protests

Some high -ranking Democrats have announced that they will not take part in Tuesday. Senator Chris Murphy from Connecticut and Senator Brian Schatz from Hawaii will provide their own refutation, which is livestream speaking.

“I think Donald Trump will spit a number of lies about his agreement with Russia about what to do to do to allow Elon Musk to essentially monetize the American government in order to enrich Musk and his billionaire,” Murphy told CNN. “And I just won't be part of it.”

Senator Ron Wyden from Oregon has announced that he will hold a town hall meeting with the voters instead of visiting Trump's speech before the congress.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from New York said on Tuesday in a social media post that she would not take part in Trump's speech. Instead, she plans to communicate on Bluesky with her 1.9 million followers during the address before organizing a live event on Instagram, where she has 8.7 million followers.

Rep. Don Beyer from Virginia said politico that he would also miss the speech.

“The idea of ​​the halves of my colleagues who got up and stood, and enormously clapping for … things that I think is for the American people will not be fun,” said Beyer. “I don't see that I will contribute to the event.”

But the majority of the Democrats believe that it is important that the party is represented in the house chamber when Trump speaks. The time reported on Tuesday that dozens of democratic congress leaders are planning to carry Pink's policy in protest against the policy of President. Many also plan to bring released federal workers as invited guests, reported The Hill. This includes Rep. Brad Schneider from Illinois, the Adam Mulvey, a veteran of the army, which was released from a federal health center in Chicago last month. MP Ritchie Torres from New York will bring Nancy Bolan, a federal health worker, formerly to USAID, who also endeavored to reduce the federal employee in Trump last month.
