VOA looks back on past State of the Union addresses in preparation for U.S. President Joe Biden’s upcoming speech

VOA looks back on past State of the Union addresses in preparation for U.S. President Joe Biden’s upcoming speech, Tuesday, February 7, 2023.

The State of the Union address is an annual speech given by the current President of the United States to a joint session of the United States Congress in the beginning of the calendar year.

The first — and the shortest — State of the Union address was delivered by former President George Washington in 1790. Former President Bill Clinton gave the longest spoken address, which lasted about an hour and a half.

Tuesday will mark President Biden’s second State of the Union address. Anticipated topics he may reference include inflation, domestic spending and Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Pidato State of the Union adalah pidato tahunan yang diberikan oleh Presiden Amerika Serikat saat ini untuk sesi gabungan Kongres Amerika Serikat di awal tahun kalender.

Yang pertama — dan yang terpendek — pidato State of the Union disampaikan oleh mantan Presiden George Washington pada tahun 1790. Mantan Presiden Bill Clinton memberikan pidato terpanjang, yang berlangsung sekitar satu setengah jam.

Hari Selasa akan menandai pidato ke-2 Presiden Biden. Topik-topik yang diantisipasi yang mungkin dia rujuk meliputi inflasi, pengeluaran domestik dan perang Rusia di Ukraina.
