Trump to Deliver Congressional Address Amid Tariff Reactions
President Trump is set to deliver his first joint Congressional address, focusing on:
- Defense of new tariffs imposed on Mexico, Canada, and China
- Potential discussion on the federal budget, with a government shutdown looming
- Possibly addressing the recent conversation with Ukrainian President Zelensky
- Investments in US-made AI and technology initiatives
The speech may not cover the stock market or cryptocurrencies. However, Trump's recently announced crypto reserve could be mentioned as it requires Congressional approval.
This address precedes the White House's inaugural crypto summit starting Friday, attended by officials including David Sacks and Bo Hines.
The address is scheduled for 9 pm ET.
