Pelosi Invites Trump to Address Nation Next Week
Pelosi Invites Trump to Address Nation Next Week
U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has re-invited President Donald Trump to address the nation Feb. 5 from the Capitol.
In a formal letter sent Monday, Pelosi issued the invitation, asking Trump to "deliver your State of the Union address before a Joint Session of Congress."
The House and Senate must still pass a resolution to invite Trump.
His original 2019 address was scheduled for Tuesday, but Pelosi asked Trump to wait until after a partial government shutdown had ended or to submit the speech in writing.
In asking for a postponement, Pelosi cited security concerns due to the shutdown. Trump considered going ahead with the address at a different location, but then decided to wait.
The longest shutdown in U.S. history ended Friday when Trump and congressional leaders agreed to refund the government until Feb. 15.
