This will be Congressman John Faso’s first State of the Union speech tonight. The Republican from New York’s Hudson Valley was elected in 2016 and is beginning the second year of his first term on Capitol Hill. Faso says he is hoping for a message of unity from the president tonight, but is also interested in hearing details on a number of issues.
Faso spoke with WAMC’s Brian Shields hours before the speech.
You can listen to the State of the Union at 9 p.m. on WAMC.
