With the deepening crisis in Ukraine and daily headlines recalling the worst days of the Cold War era, the world will be watching Tuesday, March 1 as President Biden delivers his State of the Union address. Inflation, COVID-19 and continued supply chain disruptions only add to the urgency of the President’s remarks – and Congressional action.
This year, the State of the Union will take place on February 4 at 9 p.m. EST. This date is significant for several reasons. It takes place one day after the Iowa caucuses, amid a presidential campaign, and likely in the aftermath of the impeachment trial in the U.S. Senate. While the address takes place during a whirlwind political climate, SHRM remains focused on policy, not politics, advocating for positive workplace solutions.
