All members of Congress will be invited to President Joe Biden's State of the Union address on March 1, according to the House sergeant-at-arms, marking a return to a full House chamber after last year's socially distant speech.
House Sergeant-at-Arms William Walker wrote Thursday there will be coronavirus "safety measures" in place during the address, including mandatory N95 mask wearing and a negative Covid-19 test. He added that after consultations with the House physician it was decided that, "testing is required for all State of the Union attendees, including Members of Congress, invited press, and any staff person who will be in close contact with the principal attendees in a support staff role."
The memo also states, "completion of SARS CoV2 coronavirus vaccination including booster vaccine is strongly recommended at least two weeks prior to the event."
