Congressman Gerry Connolly issued the following statement on President Obama’s State of the Union address Monday night. “The State of our Union is strong, and the state of our President is even stronger when it comes to fighting for the Middle Class and creating jobs. “Some may define Barack Obama as a lame duck, but he sure isn’t acting like one. “President Obama put forth many substantive proposals in tonight’s address, including steps to continue building our economy, fighting terrorism, rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, enhancing access to higher education, and increasing America’s energy independence through sensible and environmentally-sound methods. “Americans want to see our government practice pragmatism rather than partisanship and and innovation rather than ideology. Tonight, President Obama gave us a road map to achieve those goals.”
