Trump to give State of the Union speech after Supreme Court tariffs ruling

At least 32 Democratic lawmakers say they won’t attend this year’s address.

Fifteen lawmakers are skipping it to attend a rally organized by progressive advocacy groups on the National Mall. MoveOn and MeidasTouch are co-hosting the rally as “counterprogramming” to “President Trump’s night full of lies and misplaced priorities for the American people.” Sens. Ed Markey of Massachusetts, Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Chris Van Hollen of Maryland are among the Democratic lawmakers scheduled to attend.

Nearby, at the National Press Club, the anti-Trump group Defiance.org will host a “State of the Swamp” event, billed as a rebuttal to Trump’s speech, with numerous Democratic lawmakers and celebrities scheduled to make appearances and give remarks.
