Although it’s hard to know exactly what President Trump will say in his State of the Union address, it is very likely that he will touch on two topics: the economy and his infrastructure plan. CEPR has two blog posts to address these two issues. Dean Baker sets the record straight in, President Trump Will be Boasting About the Yellen–Obama Economy, and Eileen Appelbaum explains the infrastructure plan in, Trump Infrastructure Plan: What to Expect in the State of the Union.
In addition, Mark Weisbrot will be giving post-speech insights and critiques in a live stream on Al Jazeera English. Follow CEPR on Twitter for real-time facts and insights @ceprdc.
The State of the Union airs tonight, January 30, at 9:00 PM Eastern time.
