Fox will have full coverage of Trump’s address to a joint session of Congress

President Donald Trump is set to address a Joint Session of Congress on Tuesday, March 4 at 9 p.m. ET. While not officially a State of the Union address, this forum provides an opportunity for the President to share his vision for the future of the nation.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., extended the invitation to President Trump earlier this month, expressing gratitude for his leadership and action in the early days of his presidency. Johnson praised Trump for igniting a resurgence of patriotism, unity, and hope across the country.

\”Your administration and the 119th Congress working together have the chance to make these next four years some of the most consequential in our nation’s history,\” Johnson wrote in a letter to Trump. He eagerly awaits the President’s America First vision for the legislative future.

The event will be covered live by Fox News Channel, Fox News Digital, and Fox News Go. Leading up to the address, Fox News Channel will feature coverage during its primetime and afternoon programming. From the \”Will Cain Show\” to \”The Ingraham Angle,\” viewers can expect in-depth analysis and commentary.

Historically, these Joint Session speeches have followed the same customs as official State of the Union addresses, as mandated by the Constitution. These speeches serve to inform Congress about the state of the nation and offer legislative recommendations.

Former President Woodrow Wilson was the first to deliver an in-person address, with the title \”State of the Union\” standardized by former President Harry S. Truman. Former President Lyndon B. Johnson initiated the tradition of a primetime address, bringing the message directly to the American people.

During such addresses, one member of the President’s cabinet is designated as the \”designated survivor,\” staying behind in case of a catastrophe that leads to the deaths of all assembled in the chamber. Notable designated survivors have included future New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and former Attorney General Eric Holder.

As President Trump prepares to address Congress, the nation eagerly anticipates his vision for the future. This Joint Session will provide a platform for the President to outline his priorities and agenda for the coming years.
