President Joe Biden delivered a forceful State of the Union address on Tuesday, February 7, 2023, highlighting his work on economic issues for the middle class and contrasting his policies with those of his opponents. The speech was seen as a kickoff to Biden's 2024 reelection campaign.
In his speech, Biden touted his administration's accomplishments on the economy, including the passage of the American Rescue Plan, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and the CHIPS and Science Act. He also highlighted his work to reduce healthcare costs, combat climate change, and improve education.
Biden also contrasted his policies with those of Republicans, who he accused of being out of touch with the needs of the American people. He criticized their efforts to cut taxes for the wealthy, repeal the Affordable Care Act, and undermine Social Security and Medicare.
The speech was well-received by Democrats and some independents, but Republicans were critical. Some Republicans accused Biden of being divisive and partisan, while others said he did not offer any new solutions to the country's problems.
