State of the Union

During the 12 years that Denny Rehberg represented the state of Montana in the U.S. House of Representatives, I had numerous opportunities to interview him both in person and on the phone, so it was a pleasure to renew that relationship on Monday afternoon.

Following President Trump’s State of the Union Address on January 4, Greg Gianforte and Steve Daines both issued statements responding to the address. Both congressmen listed the impact of new trade deals and a strong economy on Montanans.

At 9 p.m. EST on Tuesday night, President Obama will deliver the State of the Union address from the floor of the House of Representatives in Washington. It will be his sixth such message, the first before a Republican-controlled Congress, following the GOP's victories in the 2014 midterms.

Declaring 2014 a "year of action" as he unveiled a series of relatively meager executive actions, President Barack Obama vowed in his State of the Union address Tuesday night to sidestep Congress "whenever and wherever" he can in order to push through his agenda.

President Barack Obama is urging Congress to act to restore economic opportunity but warning he'll act on his own wherever he can.
