Psaki says Biden isn't 'snubbing' Congress by postponing joint address
Fox News
White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Friday said President Biden is not "snubbing" Congress by delaying his joint address, pointing to the coronavirus pandemic and saying the administration has been "engaged closely" with congressional leadership regarding their plans.
Psaki was pressed on Friday during the White House press briefing on what the cause for the delay was, as most presidents deliver a joint address to Congress within the first weeks of their administration to lay out their policy proposals, and she was asked whether he would deliver an address at all. "There is not — it is not a snubbing happening here," Psaki said. "We are in the middle of a global pandemic, and of course, any joint session speech would look different than the past."More Related News
