Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger delivered the Democratic response to President Trump‘s State of the Union address, focusing on the high costs that many American families are still facing more than a year into his second term. She spoke from Colonial Williamsburg, a location tied to early American opposition to British rule.
Spanberger built her response around three direct questions for viewers at home, saying she wanted to speak “plainly and honestly” to the public. Her questions were: “Is the president working to make life more affordable for you and your family? Is the president working to keep Americans safe, both at home and abroad? Is the president working for you?”
