DGA Chair Gov. Walz Statement on President Biden’s State of the Union Address

DGA Chair and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz released the following statement in response to President Biden’s State of the Union Address:

“President Biden’s State of the Union speech tonight was a reminder of how his strong, steady leadership and historic legislative victories have made life better for the American people. Under the Biden-Harris Administration, the middle class is doing better thanks to record job growth and low unemployment. That’s driven by historic investments to rebuild our nation’s roads and bridges, bring manufacturing jobs home to America, and cut prescription drug prices- all while the President and Vice President stand up for our democracy and against MAGA attacks on reproductive freedom.”

“Every step of the way, Democratic governors have worked hand-in-hand with the President and Vice President to ensure families in our states see the benefit of these accomplishments — like in Minnesota where we have invested upwards of $6 billion to modernize our infrastructure, including historic efforts to bring high-speed internet and safe drinking water to every household.

“The DGA has proven time and time again that Democrats can win anywhere and everywhere when we focus on real issues that are affecting our hardworking families in contrast to the division, chaos, and attacks on our freedoms from MAGA Republicans. That’s exactly what President Biden has done over the past four years and what he talked about tonight, and we look forward to continuing helping make that case to the American people from now through November.”
