Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders Will Deliver Republican Response to Biden’s State of the Union AddressJacob Bliss 2 Feb 2023 Washington, DC

The governor’s address will follow Biden’s State of the Union address Tuesday and will be delivered from Little Rock, Arkansas, according to a joint announcement from House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Senate Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY).
“I am grateful for this opportunity to address the nation and contrast the GOP’s optimistic vision for the future against the failures of President Biden and the Democrats,” Sanders said. “We are ready to begin a new chapter in the story of America – to be written by a new generation of leaders ready to defend our freedom against the radical left and expand access to quality education, jobs, and opportunity for all.”
The response to the State of the Union has often been delivered as a rebuttal speech from the opposition party following the president’s address. Sanders was inaugurated as Arkansas’ 47th governor on January 10 and is the first woman to serve as the state’s governor. She is also the youngest governor in the country.
“Americans are still struggling from inflation, a border crisis, record crime, and a failing school system.
