Government
State of the Union: Pelosi invites Trump to deliver address on 5 February – live
2019-01-29
[CNBC] House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has invited President Donald Trump to give the State of the Union address on Feb. 5, following a clash during the partial government shutdown that delayed the speech.
Will the temporary 3-week coverage still be in force then, or will it have expired?
In a letter to Trump, the California Democrat said she and the president agreed to the date after they spoke on Monday. The annual remarks were originally scheduled for Tuesday, before Pelosi asked Trump on Jan. 16 to delay them until the closure ended.

A week later, Trump told Pelosi that he would speak in the House chamber as planned. The House leader responded that her caucus would not approve the joint session of Congress needed for him to speak in the House chamber until the government was open. Trump then relented.
