Quigley Will Not Attend State of the Union Address
Chicago Congressman opts to skip presidential address, will join Indivisible Barrington’s virtual town hall instead.
Today, Chicago Congressman Mike Quigley (IL-05) announced his plans for next week’s State of the Union. In lieu of attending Trump’s State of the Union address, the Congressman will attend a virtual town hall hosted by Indivisible Barrington at 6 pm CT/7 pm ET on Tuesday, February 24.
Quigley will be available for interviews in-person or virtually on Monday, February 23, and Tuesday, February 24. Please contact Victoria Oms and Caroline Mullooly with Quigley’s office to schedule an interview.
“The state of the union is unstable. Trump’s poor decisions have left Americans divided and uncertain about their futures. He has driven up costs through tariffs, hiked premiums for health insurance, and deployed masked federal agents to kidnap and disappear innocent people,” said Quigley. “Trump was elected based on his promises to help struggling Americans, but he’s spent the past year focused on his pet projects. Instead of listening to Trump drone on about how ‘great’ he is, I’m going to join Indivisible Barrington for a virtual town hall. I’m proud to spend this time with my constituents, talking with them about how to restore the American dream and save our democracy.”
A livestream of the town hall will be available HERE.
