Trump’s State of the Union: ‘Untethered from the Reality Facing American Families’

Today, Congresswoman Suzan DelBene (WA-01) released the following statement on the president’s State of the Union speech:

“The president is completely disconnected from the true state of the union. While Trump dismisses rising prices, Americans are living with the pain of the affordability crisis created by his tariffs and economic policies. Families are living in fear as he ignores calls to end the taxpayer-funded violence his ICE agents have brought to our communities.

“I have heard many State of the Union speeches during my time in Congress, but this was the most untethered from the reality facing American families. We need leaders who will stand up for our communities and our country. Instead, Republicans only blindly follow his destructive agenda. House Democrats and I remain focused on lowering costs and restoring safety in our communities.”
