House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has invited President Joe Biden to deliver the State of the Union address -- the first of Biden's presidency -- on Tuesday, March 1, 2022.

"Thank you for your bold vision and patriotic leadership which have guided America out of crisis and into an era of great progress, as we not only recover from the pandemic but Build Back Better!" Pelosi wrote in a letter on Friday inviting Biden to speak in the House chamber.

"In that spirit, I am writing to invite you to address a Joint Session of Congress on Tuesday, March 1, to share your vision of the State of the Union," she wrote.

President Joe Biden speaks during a joint session of Congress at the Capitol in Washington, D.C., April 28, 2021.
Biden addressed his first joint session of Congress last April but that was not considered a State of the Union address as he was just entering office.

5. Any dare to even show up?

We will see. Bet your boots Liz Cheney snd Adam Kinzinger will attend.

6. Part of me hopes that they don't show up.

Is that wrong of me? (Also... I wonder if social distancing and mask requirements would even work.)

[ProudMNDemocrat]

7. And show them to be the ASSHOLES that they are for all the world to see.

How considerate of them.

8. That's my thinking as well... they will put it out there for ALL the world to see.

4. He should wait until the fall. Say, October.

More time to wait out the pandemic, and attain any needed bump that it could give him and democrats right before the midterms.

9. Nope. He should give it and GLOAT about all the accomplishments done in his first year, and then

schedule another one right before midterms in the fall. This way it's fresh in the media & in the minds of Americans (at least the sensible ones).

10. YES

I like your idea better.

11. Impeccable timing

Allow the Jan 6 battle positions to take hold, and let the festering Florida pustule consume itself, then present us with hope and a forward looking agenda a few weeks before spring. This is how you turn attention to a more uplifting agenda. Omicron will be on the downswing by March as well.
