State of the Union: America Is Stronger Thanks to Democrats in Congress

President Biden’s first State of the Union Address highlights House Democrats’ historic record of achievement for the American people

Tonight, President Biden made clear in his first State of the Union Address just how Democrats in Congress have been building a better America, powering a historically strong economic recovery that has uplifted workers, families, and small businesses.

While reckless Republicans built a record of voting against the middle class and opposing the efforts that have helped us move past the crisis phase of COVID, Democrats have remained focused on delivering what voters want to see: record-breaking job growth, higher wages, kids back in schools, and real plans to lower costs.

President Biden’s and House Democrats’ popular agenda led us to the fastest economic recovery in the world, and Democrats are working to strengthen our recovery even further by supporting President Biden’s latest plans to lower costs hurting working Americans.

Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are promoting an agenda that threatens to tax seniors’ Social Security benefits and make working families pay hundreds of dollars more in taxes, with no plan to fight inflation.

DCCC Spokesperson Chris Taylor
“President Biden outlined tonight just why it’s so important to elect Democrats to Congress this November. Republicans have already told us their extreme agenda: raise taxes on seniors and working families, give more tax cuts to billionaires and corporations, and give themselves the power to change election results they don’t like. Tonight’s speech emphasized that Democrats are the party that strengthens working Americans.”
