Congressman Rick W. Allen (GA-12) issued the following statement in reaction to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address:

“I am disappointed that tonight’s State of the Union Address was out of touch with what is on the minds of the American people. President Biden placed blame and shirked responsibility for his self-inflicted border crisis. He took an unwarranted victory lap on the economy when Bidenflation remains a concern for American families. He was more focused on giving a partisan campaign speech than addressing his disastrous foreign policy failures that have emboldened our adversaries.

“Overall, tonight’s speech was simply more of the same divisive rhetoric. The State of our Union is headed in the wrong direction, and it is past time to reverse course. The President could take many actions right now with the stroke of a pen to return our country to prosperity, but I remain doubtful he will do so. In the meantime, the House of Representatives will remain a check and balance to President Biden’s misguided policies.”
