Ahead of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries urged fellow Democrats to consider protesting the speech, including the possibility of not attending. His appeal reflects deep partisan tensions in Washington, with Democrats seeking to signal opposition to Trump’s policies on immigration, the economy, and governance.

The call highlights a broader political showdown between Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill, as both parties frame the address as a defining moment ahead of future legislative battles. The situation underscores how the State of the Union, traditionally a unifying event, is increasingly becoming a stage for political messaging and partisan confrontation.
