How to watch President Biden's first address to Congress
CNN
President Joe Biden will address a joint session of Congress for the first time on Wednesday evening and is expected to tout his administration's accomplishments within his first 100 days in office and unveil key components of his next legislative push.
Biden is expected to lay out parts of his American Families Plan, a roughly $1.5 trillion legislative proposal to invest hundreds of billions of dollars into key Democratic priorities on education, child care and paid leave. The plan is the second part of a two-part proposal to help the nation's economy recover from the coronavirus pandemic. The President is set to tout his administration's response to the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed more than 570,000 Americans. The US recently surpassed 200 million Covid-19 shots administered since January 20, which was double the original goal Biden had outlined of achieving 100 million shots in arms in the first 100 days.
