How to watch President Biden's address before the joint session of Congress
CBSN
President Joe Biden will address a joint session of Congress for the first time Wednesday, in an event similar to a State of the Union. The address given in the first year of a president's term is not considered an official State of the Union speech.
The speech will be live on CBS broadcast stations and streaming on CBSN. CBSN will start coverage at 5 p.m. ET with Elaine Quijano on "Red & Blue," and will also stream the Republican response after Mr. Biden's speech.Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
