Fact Check: Trump's State Of The Union Address

Trump, Pence, and Pelosi

President Donald Trump delivers his State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington, as Vice President Mike Pence and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., watch on Tuesday, Feb. 5, 2019.

President Trump is delivering his State of the Union address, which the White House says will outline a "policy agenda both parties can rally behind."
