"title": "6 Key Takeaways From Biden's Fiery State of the Union Address",
"headTitle": "6 Key Takeaways From Biden’s Fiery State of the Union Address | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>The State of the Union address is one of the durable set pieces of the presidency, a forum that almost always favors the speaker in a one-way conversation with millions of Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the speeches are instantly dissected and almost as quickly forgotten. But this is a most unusual year, with President Joe Biden needing to make the case not simply that his policies warrant \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/state-of-union-biden-gaza-ukraine-israel-1a42ff9d4ef3e0f2753e43ac8d39fc18\">a second term\u003c/a> but that he has the personal capacity at age 81 to do the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He laid out the clear contours of the campaign ahead, criticizing former President Donald Trump over the Jan. 6 insurrection and going after the Supreme Court, with justices present, over its ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, the shrinking size of a Snickers bar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some key takeaways from the speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>He who won’t be named\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Biden opened the speech with fiery denunciations of the rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, then singled out Republicans in the chamber and his GOP foe Trump. But he refused to utter Trump’s name, saying that “my predecessor and some of you here seek to bury the truth about Jan. 6.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He wrapped that into a larger theme that democracy is threatened like no time since the Civil War, signaling a clear line of attack he will use against the man he would not name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also criticized “my predecessor” for Trump’s assertion that Russian President Vladimir Putin can “do whatever the hell he wants” with respect to NATO allies, and he implored Congress to pass additional aid for Ukraine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking with a vigor that his supporters have said has been lacking, he set up a contrast between his internationalist view of the world and the more isolationist leaning of his “predecessor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden used almost the entirety of the speech to find ways to try to persuade Americans of the contrast.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>The age-old question\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>On Thursday night, Biden delivered what a lot of his own supporters had found wanting. It was a high-energy, forceful speech, and at times, he taunted Republicans with ad-libs. When they heckled his support for bipartisan border security legislation, Biden said, “Look at the facts. I know you know how to read.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden stumbled over a few words, and in the Republican response, Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama called him “dithering and diminished,” but it was a more vigorous performance than other speeches where his remarks can be meandering or hard to hear. It was also a rejoinder to criticisms that Biden is too old to keep serving as president. He would be 86 at the end of a second term, and Republicans — though Trump is only four years younger — have relished slicing and dicing videos of the president to make him look as feeble as possible on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden leaned into his age, mentioning he was born during World War II, but defended his vision for the country as fresh. “You can’t lead America with ancient ideas that only take us back,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Abortion on the ballot\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The president said efforts to restrict abortion were an “assault on freedom,” and he derided the Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, with members of the Supreme Court who were in the majority in that decision seated just feet away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u42TQs4Pf2c\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also welcomed Kate Cox, a Dallas mother whose fetus had a fatal condition that put her own health at risk and forced her to leave the state in order to get an abortion. “My God,” Biden said, “what freedoms will you take away next?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through much of his career, Biden has not emphasized abortion rights. In his speech, he showed how much he believes that issue could be a key to a second term.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Health care still a ‘big deal’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Biden playfully said that the Obama-era health care law is still a “big deal” and vowed to work to make a tax credit tied to the law permanent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over 100 million of you can no longer be denied health insurance because of a pre-existing condition,” Biden said. “Well, my predecessor, many in this chamber, want to take the prescription drug benefit away by repealing the Affordable Care Act. I’m not going let that happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden appeared to slip in a riff about pharmaceutical companies selling their drugs at cheaper prices around the globe, telling the audience that he’d like to take them on Air Force One to several major global cities, including Moscow, to see how much they would save on the same drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he quickly caught himself, saying it was “probably” the case, even in Russia, that prescriptions cost a fraction of what they do in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>War in Gaza gets its moment\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The bloody conflict between Israel and Hamas was an unavoidable backdrop to Biden’s speech. His motorcade took a different route to the U.S. Capitol after protesters blocked part of Pennsylvania Avenue. Inside the House chamber, some lawmakers wore keffiyehs, the black and white checkered scarves that symbolized solidarity with Palestinians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden announced plans for the U.S. military to help establish \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-gaza-humanitarian-aid-port-us-military-israel-25fb6d71bc951d7491de3ab99733a749\">a temporary pier on the coast of Gaza\u003c/a>, an effort that the administration says should significantly boost the flow of aid into the besieged territory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"joe-biden\"]The unveiling of the plan was perhaps the most substantive element of his address that touched on the war. It allowed Biden to demonstrate that he’s taking action in the face of \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-uncommitted-israel-gaza-michigan-arab-eba62caeec16c00f57e3979ec61ca8bd\">anger and defiance from some Democrats\u003c/a> over his strong support for Israel even as the Palestinian death toll mounts. It also comes after Biden last week approved the U.S. military \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-meloni-white-house-ukraine-112dacd932a45f42621a25b304ae5d99\">airdropping aid into Gaza\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden said the temporary pier “will enable a massive increase in humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, Biden underscored his support for Israel but called on its leadership to do more to alleviate the suffering even as they try to eliminate Hamas. “To Israel, I say this humanitarian assistance cannot be a secondary consideration or a bargaining chip,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Middle-class Joe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Biden outlined an economic vision that went big and small. He touted a post-pandemic economic recovery that didn’t sacrifice job creation in order to tame inflation. With housing prices still high, he proposed a tax credit that would reduce mortgage costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also hammered Republicans for tax policies that favor the wealthy. “Check the numbers. Folks at home, does anybody really think the tax code is fair?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden argued there should be a minimum tax rate of 25% on billionaires, saying, “No billionaire should pay a lower federal tax rate than a teacher, a sanitation worker or a nurse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president talked about cracking down on junk fees that can chip away at Americans’ budgets, and he criticized snack companies for “shrinkflation,” which means getting less product for the same price.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You get charged the same amount, and you got about 10% fewer Snickers in it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

But this is a most unusual year, with President Joe Biden needing to make the case not simply that his policies warrant \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/state-of-union-biden-gaza-ukraine-israel-1a42ff9d4ef3e0f2753e43ac8d39fc18\">a second term\u003c/a> but that he has the personal capacity at age 81 to do the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He laid out the clear contours of the campaign ahead, criticizing former President Donald Trump over the Jan. 6 insurrection and going after the Supreme Court, with justices present, over its ruling that overturned Roe v.

But he refused to utter Trump’s name, saying that “my predecessor and some of you here seek to bury the truth about Jan. 6.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It was a high-energy, forceful speech, and at times, he taunted Republicans with ad-libs. When they heckled his support for bipartisan border security legislation, Biden said, “Look at the facts. I know you know how to read.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden stumbled over a few words, and in the Republican response, Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama called him “dithering and diminished,” but it was a more vigorous performance than other speeches where his remarks can be meandering or hard to hear. It was also a rejoinder to criticisms that Biden is too old to keep serving as president. He would be 86 at the end of a second term, and Republicans — though Trump is only four years younger — have relished slicing and dicing videos of the president to make him look as feeble as possible on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden leaned into his age, mentioning he was born during World War II, but defended his vision for the country as fresh. “You can’t lead America with ancient ideas that only take us back,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Abortion on the ballot\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The president said efforts to restrict abortion were an “assault on freedom,” and he derided the Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v.

In his speech, he showed how much he believes that issue could be a key to a second term.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Health care still a ‘big deal’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Biden playfully said that the Obama-era health care law is still a “big deal” and vowed to work to make a tax credit tied to the law permanent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over 100 million of you can no longer be denied health insurance because of a pre-existing condition,” Biden said. “Well, my predecessor, many in this chamber, want to take the prescription drug benefit away by repealing the Affordable Care Act. I’m not going let that happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden appeared to slip in a riff about pharmaceutical companies selling their drugs at cheaper prices around the globe, telling the audience that he’d like to take them on Air Force One to several major global cities, including Moscow, to see how much they would save on the same drugs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he quickly caught himself, saying it was “probably” the case, even in Russia, that prescriptions cost a fraction of what they do in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>War in Gaza gets its moment\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The bloody conflict between Israel and Hamas was an unavoidable backdrop to Biden’s speech. His motorcade took a different route to the U.S. Capitol after protesters blocked part of Pennsylvania Avenue. Inside the House chamber, some lawmakers wore keffiyehs, the black and white checkered scarves that symbolized solidarity with Palestinians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden announced plans for the U.S. military to help establish \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-gaza-humanitarian-aid-port-us-military-israel-25fb6d71bc951d7491de3ab99733a749\">a temporary pier on the coast of Gaza\u003c/a>, an effort that the administration says should significantly boost the flow of aid into the besieged territory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It allowed Biden to demonstrate that he’s taking action in the face of \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-uncommitted-israel-gaza-michigan-arab-eba62caeec16c00f57e3979ec61ca8bd\">anger and defiance from some Democrats\u003c/a> over his strong support for Israel even as the Palestinian death toll mounts. It also comes after Biden last week approved the U.S. military \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-meloni-white-house-ukraine-112dacd932a45f42621a25b304ae5d99\">airdropping aid into Gaza\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden said the temporary pier “will enable a massive increase in humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, Biden underscored his support for Israel but called on its leadership to do more to alleviate the suffering even as they try to eliminate Hamas. “To Israel, I say this humanitarian assistance cannot be a secondary consideration or a bargaining chip,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Middle-class Joe\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Biden outlined an economic vision that went big and small. He touted a post-pandemic economic recovery that didn’t sacrifice job creation in order to tame inflation. With housing prices still high, he proposed a tax credit that would reduce mortgage costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also hammered Republicans for tax policies that favor the wealthy. “Check the numbers. Folks at home, does anybody really think the tax code is fair?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Biden argued there should be a minimum tax rate of 25% on billionaires, saying, “No billionaire should pay a lower federal tax rate than a teacher, a sanitation worker or a nurse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president talked about cracking down on junk fees that can chip away at Americans’ budgets, and he criticized snack companies for “shrinkflation,” which means getting less product for the same price.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That dependence was made clear at the onset of the pandemic, with a persistent downtown \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11955554/could-empty-offices-in-san-francisco-be-converted-to-homes\">office vacancy rate exceeding 30% due to the shift to remote work.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Breed also indicated that she believes technology companies still have a large role to play in fueling that economic engine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are recruiting new businesses and continuing to see new leases signed led by AI, which alone is projected to add 12 million square feet of office space by 2030,” Breed said. “And it won’t be AI alone. This is one of the most beautiful urban environments in the world, with an unrivaled pool of talent, of builders and dreamers, and the largest collection of deployable capital in the country.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To meet this new goal, Breed said she hopes to work with state Sen. Scott Wiener to \u003ca href=\"https://sd11.senate.ca.gov/news/20240216-senator-wiener-introduces-bill-revitalize-downtown-san-francisco\">change state laws\u003c/a> to provide regulatory and tax exemptions for building conversions and spur housing production downtown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To that end, Breed committed to vetoing any new piece of legislation that she deemed to be anti-housing.[aside label='More on London Breed' tag='london-breed']\u003ca href=\"https://www.hcd.ca.gov/policy-and-research/plans-and-reports\">A state report released last October\u003c/a> criticized city rules for making new housing production slower and costlier. Even if some of those local rules are changed — obstacles remain — including \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11839409/5-reasons-its-so-expensive-to-build-housing-in-california\">high construction costs.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcements come as Breed seems poised to score several victories in Tuesday’s election, including the likely passage of propositions C, E and F, which she sponsored. Though not all votes have been counted, all three measures were leading by more than five percentage points as of \u003ca href=\"https://sfelections.org/results/20240305w/index.html\">Thursday afternoon\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition C, if passed, would provide the new owners of converted office buildings with a one-time exemption from the city’s real estate transfer tax. As of this writing, it currently leads with nearly 54% of the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition F would require residents who receive city benefits to submit to drug screenings and treatment programs if they are suspected of having a dependence on illegal drugs or risk losing their benefits. Critics say coerced participation is not likely to lead to successful treatment — and vulnerable people could lose their housing if cut off from assistance programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During her speech, the mayor thanked residents for their support of those propositions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will roll out 400 automated license plate cameras at 100 intersections across the city this month. Thanks to the voters for approving Proposition E on Tuesday,” Breed said. “We will be installing new public safety cameras in high-crime areas, deploying drones for auto theft, car break-ins and other crimes.”[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"San Francisco Mayor London Breed\"]‘We will roll out 400 automated license plate cameras at 100 intersections across the city this month. … We will be installing new public safety cameras in high-crime areas, deploying drones for auto theft, car break-ins and other crimes.’[/pullquote] Along with giving police greater access to surveillance technology and reducing officer requirements for use-of-force reporting, Proposition E would allow police to engage in vehicle pursuits more often.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor seemed to take Tuesday’s election results as a mandate to continue her efforts to ramp up police crackdowns in the city, vowing to support arrests of drug dealers and even drug users “who are a danger to themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes, offering people services is critical, but frankly, we must compel some people into treatment,” Breed said, adding that she also hopes to expand treatment options for those suffering from substance use disorder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed’s test of true public support, though, will come in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when residents will decide whether to re-elect Breed and give her the time to enact these plans or vote in one of her challengers instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated 5 p.m. Thursday\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State of the Union speech is one of the biggest pieces of political theater every year. It’s rooted in a simple requirement in the U.S. Constitution that directs the president to “give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” But in modern times, it’s a televised extravaganza where every detail is carefully scrutinized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s how to watch and what to look for during Thursday’s address by President Joe Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where to find it\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You can find the State of the Union on all major networks, which will be carrying it live. It will also be streamed online by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/live/\">White House\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/\">The Associated Press\u003c/a>. The speech starts at 9 p.m. ET.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Cast of characters\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You might notice a new face behind Biden when he starts his speech. \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/house-speaker-republicans-emmer-mccarthy-54352a64be041cd445bda8df28b24f03\">Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana\u003c/a> became the House speaker in October after unhappy Republicans ousted \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/mccarthy-gaetz-speaker-motion-to-vacate-congress-327e294a39f8de079ef5e4abfb1fa555\">Rep. Kevin McCarthy\u003c/a> of California. Rep. Nancy Pelosi had the job before McCarthy but lost it when Democrats failed to keep the majority in the 2022 midterm elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That makes Johnson the third House speaker to sit behind Biden during a State of the Union, reflecting the political instability in Washington and a challenging shift for Biden. House leadership has fallen further under the sway of the chamber’s right flank, making it harder for the president to cut deals with the opposing party.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Biden’s age\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No president gets a free pass on the world’s biggest stage, but Biden will be watched more carefully than most because of his age. At 81 years old, he’s the oldest commander-in-chief in history, and he would be 86 at the end of a potential second term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Donald Trump, Biden’s Republican predecessor and likely opponent in this year’s election, is 77. A majority of U.S. adults doubt either of them have the mental capabilities to serve as president, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-state-of-union-mental-capacity-trump-reelection-66d8784586d21f30885d8153f949510c#:~:text=WASHINGTON%20(AP)%20%E2%80%94%20A%20poll,rematch%20of%20the%202020%20election.\">according to a new survey\u003c/a> by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State of the Union is a chance for Biden to dispel doubts about whether he’s up for the job at an age when most Americans are retired. Any verbal slips or apparent confusion would provide fodder for his opponents.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Policy agenda\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Keep your ears open for any new policy proposals. The State of the Union is a chance for presidents to lay out their goals and rally Americans to support their plans. For example, Biden used a previous speech to discuss his “unity agenda,” which included \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-veterans-pact-act-2ab6457c343a00f4966f67f3572ab50a\">expanded health care benefits for veterans.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House hasn’t disclosed specific proposals that will be in this year’s speech. But he could reference \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-second-term-agenda-election-2024-272bb9582df845cf9cd222ff2e9bd2f1\">unfinished business from his first term\u003c/a>, and he’ll likely press for military assistance for Ukraine to reinforce American leadership overseas.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Special guests\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are more than just lawmakers and top officials in the chamber for the speech. Politicians bring guests to the gallery to put a face to whatever issue they want to highlight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House invites the most high-profile guests, who are often recognized during the president’s speech. So far, the White House has disclosed only one, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-kate-cox-texas-exceptions-e85664b2ab76bcb689b1b91913d3e33e\">Kate Cox\u003c/a>, a Texas woman who was unable to get an abortion in her home state even though her health was in danger and her fetus had a fatal condition. \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/roe-biden-abortion-reproductive-rights-election-3d184285cc6edbe733311b26445db2a0\">Democrats are eager to demonstrate\u003c/a> how the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade has limited reproductive rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers will have their own guests, too. Johnson and two New York representatives are \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SpeakerJohnson/status/1764659292076921212?s=20\">bringing police officers\u003c/a> whose \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/times-square-migrant-brawl-police-new-york-3504c2e1f4b6de73512c5a89b4cf2d48\">brawl with migrants in Times Square\u003c/a> caused a political uproar among Republicans who have blamed Biden for loose border security. Rep. Elise Stefanik, another New York Republican, invited a Border Patrol officer who also serves as a union official.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Alex Padilla of California — who is chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, and Border Safety — invited as a guest DACA recipient Dr. Denisse Rojas Marquez, an emergency room resident physician at Boston Medical Center and the co-founder of Pre-Health Dreamers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Dr. Denisse Rojas Marquez is the embodiment of the American Dream, overcoming systematic barriers to health coverage, education, and employment as she and her family lived in perpetual fear of deportation,” said Padilla in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.padilla.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/padilla-announces-daca-recipient-dr-denisse-rojas-marquez-as-guest-for-2024-state-of-the-union/\">press release\u003c/a>. “I hope to make it clear to the Administration and my colleagues: We must provide a pathway to citizenship for these Dreamers and the long-term undocumented residents who work in essential jobs and contribute billions to our economy annually.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area members of Congress are also bringing guests to tonight’s State of the Union address that champion a variety of causes. Amanda Tyler, lead organizer for Christians Against Christian Nationalism, is attending as a guest of Rep. Jared Huffman, who represents all of California’s coast north of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think he was trying to send a signal about the importance of calling out Christian nationalism as well as the power of people of faith and the non-religious working together to dismantle this poisonous ideology,” said Tyler in an interview with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guests of other Bay Area Congress members include advocates for gun violence prevention, education, organized labor, and safeguards around artificial intelligence technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Fashion statements\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Television cameras will pan across the chamber during the State of the Union, so you’ll have a clear view of everyone in the audience, too. This is a chance for lawmakers and guests to send a message of their own with their clothing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic women wore white, the color of the women’s suffrage movement, during Trump’s State of the Union in 2019. In 2022, some lawmakers wore blue and yellow ribbons to show their support for Ukraine. (The country’s ambassador to the United States, Oksana Markarova, was a guest as well.)\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Protest potential\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You might think that everything about the State of the Union is scripted, but that’s not the case. Even in a tightly controlled environment, it’s still possible that someone could stage an interruption. Biden has been \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-protests-gaza-israel-hamas-election-2024-24a0a74ea195f764aa09ab7167e81ace\">shadowed around the country by protests\u003c/a> over his support for Israel’s war in Gaza. Activists have also planned a demonstration in Lafayette Square near the White House before the speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"forum_2010101904849,news_11975973,news_11974101\"] In addition, Republicans have earned a reputation for interruptions. Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Lauren Boebert of Colorado \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/state-of-the-union-address-joe-biden-lauren-boebert-nancy-pelosi-lindsey-graham-4e6c24d54eee0b656a88eede126918e8\">heckled Biden\u003c/a> during his State of the Union in 2022. Then, in 2023, some Republicans shouted at Biden when he accused them of trying to cut Social Security and Medicare. “I enjoy conversation,” Biden said as he urged Congress to unite behind protecting the safety net programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson is trying to tamp down on outbursts from his caucus. He encouraged House Republicans to show “decorum” during the speech, according to a person familiar with his remarks at a private meeting on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protests can come in other forms, too. Pelosi theatrically \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-nancy-pelosi-ap-top-news-michael-pence-politics-f8edd0389a1a8ba41322e0e34098aafb\">ripped up a copy\u003c/a> of Trump’s speech after the State of the Union in 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Republican response\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you’re not tired of politics when the State of the Union is over, stay tuned for more. The opposing party traditionally stages its own response to the speech. This year, Republicans chose \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/gop-response-state-of-union-britt-297da745485fb716138959492c3916a9\">Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama\u003c/a>. At 41 years old, she’s the youngest female senator, and some party leaders hope she will be \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/katie-britt-biden-state-of-union-response-alabama-ivf-4babe2d11e03365515d388d4a167648c\">a rising star\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But whatever she says, many will be waiting to see Trump’s own response. In a post on \u003ca href=\"https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/112050558730232529\">his Truth Social account\u003c/a>, Trump promised to provide “LIVE, Play by Play” commentary on Biden’s speech. As Trump cruises toward the Republican presidential nomination, his remarks will help frame the stakes of the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press writer Lisa Mascaro and KQED’s Tyche Hendricks and Juan Carlos Lara contributed to this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

It’s rooted in a simple requirement in the U.S. Constitution that directs the president to “give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” But in modern times, it’s a televised extravaganza where every detail is carefully scrutinized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s how to watch and what to look for during Thursday’s address by President Joe Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where to find it\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You can find the State of the Union on all major networks, which will be carrying it live. It will also be streamed online by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/live/\">White House\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/\">The Associated Press\u003c/a>. The speech starts at 9 p.m. ET.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Cast of characters\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You might notice a new face behind Biden when he starts his speech. \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/house-speaker-republicans-emmer-mccarthy-54352a64be041cd445bda8df28b24f03\">Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana\u003c/a> became the House speaker in October after unhappy Republicans ousted \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/mccarthy-gaetz-speaker-motion-to-vacate-congress-327e294a39f8de079ef5e4abfb1fa555\">Rep. Kevin McCarthy\u003c/a> of California. Rep. Nancy Pelosi had the job before McCarthy but lost it when Democrats failed to keep the majority in the 2022 midterm elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That makes Johnson the third House speaker to sit behind Biden during a State of the Union, reflecting the political instability in Washington and a challenging shift for Biden. House leadership has fallen further under the sway of the chamber’s right flank, making it harder for the president to cut deals with the opposing party.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Biden’s age\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>No president gets a free pass on the world’s biggest stage, but Biden will be watched more carefully than most because of his age. At 81 years old, he’s the oldest commander-in-chief in history, and he would be 86 at the end of a potential second term.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Donald Trump, Biden’s Republican predecessor and likely opponent in this year’s election, is 77. A majority of U.S. adults doubt either of them have the mental capabilities to serve as president, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/biden-state-of-union-mental-capacity-trump-reelection-66d8784586d21f30885d8153f949510c#:~:text=WASHINGTON%20(AP)%20%E2%80%94%20A%20poll,rematch%20of%20the%202020%20election.\">according to a new survey\u003c/a> by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The State of the Union is a chance for Biden to dispel doubts about whether he’s up for the job at an age when most Americans are retired. Any verbal slips or apparent confusion would provide fodder for his opponents.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Policy agenda\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Keep your ears open for any new policy proposals. The State of the Union is a chance for presidents to lay out their goals and rally Americans to support their plans. For example, Biden used a previous speech to discuss his “unity agenda,” which included \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-veterans-pact-act-2ab6457c343a00f4966f67f3572ab50a\">expanded health care benefits for veterans.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House hasn’t disclosed specific proposals that will be in this year’s speech. But he could reference \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-second-term-agenda-election-2024-272bb9582df845cf9cd222ff2e9bd2f1\">unfinished business from his first term\u003c/a>, and he’ll likely press for military assistance for Ukraine to reinforce American leadership overseas.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Special guests\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are more than just lawmakers and top officials in the chamber for the speech. Politicians bring guests to the gallery to put a face to whatever issue they want to highlight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House invites the most high-profile guests, who are often recognized during the president’s speech. So far, the White House has disclosed only one, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-kate-cox-texas-exceptions-e85664b2ab76bcb689b1b91913d3e33e\">Kate Cox\u003c/a>, a Texas woman who was unable to get an abortion in her home state even though her health was in danger and her fetus had a fatal condition. \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/roe-biden-abortion-reproductive-rights-election-3d184285cc6edbe733311b26445db2a0\">Democrats are eager to demonstrate\u003c/a> how the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade has limited reproductive rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers will have their own guests, too. Johnson and two New York representatives are \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SpeakerJohnson/status/1764659292076921212?s=20\">bringing police officers\u003c/a> whose \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/times-square-migrant-brawl-police-new-york-3504c2e1f4b6de73512c5a89b4cf2d48\">brawl with migrants in Times Square\u003c/a> caused a political uproar among Republicans who have blamed Biden for loose border security. Rep. Elise Stefanik, another New York Republican, invited a Border Patrol officer who also serves as a union official.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That’s because most people vote by mail with ballots that, as long as they are postmarked by Election Day, can arrive up to a week later and still be counted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That has made counting ballots in California a weekslong drama that, for close contests, can transform Election Day into an election month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s a look at the most competitive House races in California:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>District 22: Political infighting leads to lockout fears\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Republican incumbent David Valadao and Democrat Rudy Salas were leading the field in early returns in this Central Valley farm district, which Democrats have targeted as a crucial pickup opportunity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican rancher Chris Mathys and Democratic state Sen.

That would be a major embarrassment for Democrats while dealing a major blow to their chances of retaking the House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salas has the backing of the Democratic Party and prominent state officials like Gov. Gavin Newsom. Newsom recently made a fundraising pitch on Salas’ behalf, warning of a “DEEP risk of having two Republicans make the general election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>District 47: Replacing Katie Porter\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Republican Scott Baugh and Democratic state Sen.

His party sees the seat as a top pick-up opportunity in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrat Joanna Weiss, who founded an organization to promote progressive candidates, was behind Min and Baugh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race between Min and Weiss was one of the \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/california-house-democrats-super-tuesday-8ab201fc90351075c4635dcfafa4fc1d\">nastiest this cycle\u003c/a>, with each campaign relentlessly attacking the other.

Anna Eshoo, who is not running for another term. The primary results could set up a pricey, generational contest in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the latest returns from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, Liccardo held 22% of the vote, with Simitian at 17.9%, ahead of Democratic Assemblymember Evan Low at 15.8%. The top two finishers, regardless of party, will advance to the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’re seeing in the early results is reflective of what I was hearing at doorsteps from Pacifica to San José,” Liccardo said. “The fact that we have a community that wants Congress to get things done around the basic challenges that we are facing in our community, around homelessness around the high cost of utilities and child care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About half of the votes have been counted in the race, according to an estimate by The Associated Press. Liccardo said it was too early to declare victory, but Simitian expressed confidence that the field was set for the fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was a great outcome, we’re really all quite excited,” Simitian told KQED. “The goal was met: Make the top two.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the region’s most experienced lawmakers, Simitian has served on the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors since 2013. Before that, he represented the Peninsula and South Bay in the state Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He campaigned on a track record of accomplishments that included the preservation of the Buena Vista Mobile Home Park, redirecting local sales tax revenue from BART to local transit, and reforms promoting greater transparency in the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Simitian, who is 71-years-old, responded to questions about his age by arguing he was a candidate whose focus was on the future, with the wisdom necessary to see problems around the bend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Simitian, Liccardo focused his campaign on issues of local importance, including homelessness and transportation. Liccardo promised to bring new ideas to reduce street homelessness to Congress, such as allowing recipients of housing assistance to use their Section 8 vouchers to pay for interim housing, like tiny homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As mayor, Liccardo initially presided over an increase in homelessness. But during his last year as mayor, homelessness fell in San José which he pointed to as evidence that a program he supported to build short-term housing was making meaningful progress in providing shelter. Liccardo frequently clashed with organized labor during his tenure as mayor, but it’s unclear if those groups will spend more heavily against him during the fall campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the primary, unions largely threw their support behind Low, the former mayor of Campbell who has represented parts of the South Bay in the state Assembly since 2014. The powerful South Bay Labor Council and San Mateo Labor Council both endorsed his candidacy, along with the California Labor Federation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With numerous votes outstanding, the election remains too close to call,” Low said on X (formerly known as Twitter). “I look forward to reviewing the results of the remaining votes as they come in and remain hopeful we will continue to the General Election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Low built his messaging around issues aimed at engaging progressives — touting his work on reproductive and LGBTQ+ rights and framing his candidacy as a bulwark against a second Trump presidency. But he faced a depressed turnout among the younger and more progressive voters whose support he needed. In early voting, fewer than 10% of ballots returned came from voters younger than 35.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/congress-retirement-house-members-anna-eshoo-0704b27d8211127e34b7be586d05c8f3\">Eshoo’s decision late last year not to seek another term\u003c/a> kicked off a 15-week sprint before the primary. The 11 candidates running for the seat spent a collective $5.6 million (with an additional $2.5 million from outside groups) making their case to voters from Pacifica to San José, according to campaign finance filings filed with the state through February 14.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter Dixon, a tech entrepreneur, received 7.6%. The former marine spent more than $1.8 million — the most of any candidate — and blanketed the district with mailers. He even purchased pricey television ad slots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conservative voters in the district appear to have split their vote between two GOP candidates: Former Menlo Park City Councilmember Peter Ohtaki, who had 13.3% of the vote, and Karl Ryan, a local party official who received 7.3%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only female candidate running to succeed Eshoo — who was elected in the original 1992 “Year of the Woman,” when a number of female candidates were elected to Congress — was Julie Lythcott-Haims, a Palo Alto City Council member and bestselling author.

Anna Eshoo, who is not running for another term. The primary results could set up a pricey, generational contest in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the latest returns from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, Liccardo held 22% of the vote, with Simitian at 17.9%, ahead of Democratic Assemblymember Evan Low at 15.8%. The top two finishers, regardless of party, will advance to the general election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’re seeing in the early results is reflective of what I was hearing at doorsteps from Pacifica to San José,” Liccardo said. “The fact that we have a community that wants Congress to get things done around the basic challenges that we are facing in our community, around homelessness around the high cost of utilities and child care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About half of the votes have been counted in the race, according to an estimate by The Associated Press. Liccardo said it was too early to declare victory, but Simitian expressed confidence that the field was set for the fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was a great outcome, we’re really all quite excited,” Simitian told KQED. “The goal was met: Make the top two.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the region’s most experienced lawmakers, Simitian has served on the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors since 2013. Before that, he represented the Peninsula and South Bay in the state Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He campaigned on a track record of accomplishments that included the preservation of the Buena Vista Mobile Home Park, redirecting local sales tax revenue from BART to local transit, and reforms promoting greater transparency in the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Simitian, who is 71-years-old, responded to questions about his age by arguing he was a candidate whose focus was on the future, with the wisdom necessary to see problems around the bend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Simitian, Liccardo focused his campaign on issues of local importance, including homelessness and transportation. Liccardo promised to bring new ideas to reduce street homelessness to Congress, such as allowing recipients of housing assistance to use their Section 8 vouchers to pay for interim housing, like tiny homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As mayor, Liccardo initially presided over an increase in homelessness. But during his last year as mayor, homelessness fell in San José which he pointed to as evidence that a program he supported to build short-term housing was making meaningful progress in providing shelter. Liccardo frequently clashed with organized labor during his tenure as mayor, but it’s unclear if those groups will spend more heavily against him during the fall campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the primary, unions largely threw their support behind Low, the former mayor of Campbell who has represented parts of the South Bay in the state Assembly since 2014. The powerful South Bay Labor Council and San Mateo Labor Council both endorsed his candidacy, along with the California Labor Federation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With numerous votes outstanding, the election remains too close to call,” Low said on X (formerly known as Twitter). “I look forward to reviewing the results of the remaining votes as they come in and remain hopeful we will continue to the General Election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Low built his messaging around issues aimed at engaging progressives — touting his work on reproductive and LGBTQ+ rights and framing his candidacy as a bulwark against a second Trump presidency. But he faced a depressed turnout among the younger and more progressive voters whose support he needed. In early voting, fewer than 10% of ballots returned came from voters younger than 35.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/congress-retirement-house-members-anna-eshoo-0704b27d8211127e34b7be586d05c8f3\">Eshoo’s decision late last year not to seek another term\u003c/a> kicked off a 15-week sprint before the primary. The 11 candidates running for the seat spent a collective $5.6 million (with an additional $2.5 million from outside groups) making their case to voters from Pacifica to San José, according to campaign finance filings filed with the state through February 14.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter Dixon, a tech entrepreneur, received 7.6%. The former marine spent more than $1.8 million — the most of any candidate — and blanketed the district with mailers. He even purchased pricey television ad slots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conservative voters in the district appear to have split their vote between two GOP candidates: Former Menlo Park City Councilmember Peter Ohtaki, who had 13.3% of the vote, and Karl Ryan, a local party official who received 7.3%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only female candidate running to succeed Eshoo — who was elected in the original 1992 “Year of the Woman,” when a number of female candidates were elected to Congress — was Julie Lythcott-Haims, a Palo Alto City Council member and bestselling author. But it appears Lythcott-Haims, who \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> garnered 5.2% of the vote, and other Democrats\u003c/span> struggled to increase their recognition across the sprawling district during this truncated campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Saratoga Councilmember Rishi Kumar, who garnered 42% of the vote against Eshoo in the 2022 general election, won \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">6.3%\u003c/span> of the vote.
