President Joe Biden's first speech to a joint session of Congress is still not set, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday.
The joint address typically takes place in February of each year and is known as the State of the Union address every year except a president's first in office.
Biden's chief of staff, Ron Klain, said last month that the address would likely be scheduled "Shortly after" the COVID-19 relief bill was passed by Congress and promoted by the president during a tour to various states.
"I think shortly after that you'll see him work with the Congress on a joint address that is appropriate for COVID and all of these other times we are living in."
On Thursday, Psaki indicated Biden may not deliver the address.
The president took over two months to hold his first press conference, finally engaging in an extended question-and-answer session on March 25.
He is still not meeting with foreign leaders in-person, though Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga's government said Friday the official would visit Biden on April 16 and be the first foreign leader to meet with him in person.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
