Wicker Says President Has Failed to Live Up to His Rhetoric
WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Senator Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) today issued the following statement regarding the President's annual State of the Union Address.
"The President has made a lot of promises over the past three years, but he has failed to live up to his rhetoric," said Wicker. "We need a different direction from the high unemployment and runaway spending that have marked the Obama economy. The House has passed 30 bills that would spur job creation, but the Democrat-controlled Senate refuses to bring them up for a vote. If the President is serious about getting our economy back on the right track, he should put pressure on Senators in his own party to pass these bills."
Wicker recently pointed to some of the President's failed promises from previous addresses in this column. In it, he wrote, "Now that President Obama is in the fourth year of his term, Americans have had sufficient time to see the wide gap between his rhetoric and record." Wicker also highlighted the President's unfulfilled pledges to cut government spending and encourage job creation.
The President's State of the Union Address is required by the United States Constitution in Article II, Section 3. The State of the Union was submitted in writing from 1810-1912 and first televised at night when Lyndon Johnson delivered his State of the Union on January 4, 1965.
