Washington, D.C. – House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik joined her House colleagues ahead of Joe Biden's final State of the Union address to discuss how the American people have been hurt by Joe Biden's failed Far Left policies.
Find her full remarks below.
“The American people have spoken. They made clear what we have known for months: President Donald J. Trump is our Republican nominee and will be 47th President of the United States. His America first agenda secured our borders, made America energy independent, and always puts the needs of the American people first.
That is not the State of the Union we will hear from Joe Biden this week, because the American people deeply understand that under Joe Biden's failed presidency, the State of the Union is in crisis. And this is a crisis of Joe Biden's making. As Ronald Reagan famously asked us, “Are you better off today than you were four years ago?”. The answer for hardworking Americans across the country is a resounding ‘no’. Whether it's the catastrophic border crisis ravaging our nation and leading to tragic loss of life of American citizens, the painful Bidenflation causing middle class families to struggle to make ends meet, or our most precious ally Israel facing the bloodiest day since the Holocaust as Joe Biden projects weakness around the globe. Joe Biden has failed America and the American people.
And at what will be his final State of the Union, Joe Biden and the White House will desperately try to pass the buck, blame Congress, and shirk responsibility in a desperate attempt to reset his abysmal presidency. But it won't work, because the American people are smart. There is no reset button for Joe Biden. Even the Democrats’ loyal stenographers in the mainstream media have been forced to acknowledge that Joe Biden is a deteriorating president with a failed record and polling in freefall.
Each of our House Republican members will host a guest that highlights Joe Biden's State of the Union in crisis whether its border patrol officers, like my guest from the North Country Brandon Budlong, or families who have lost loved ones due to Joe Biden's dangerous open border policies.”
