	State of the Union Address - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The State of the Union Address is an annual event in which the President of the United States reports on the status of the country, normally to a joint session of the U.S. Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate).
		Once there, the President hands copies of the address to the Vice President of the United States (as President of the Senate) and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, both of whom sit behind the President for the duration of the speech.
		Certain states have a similar annual address given by the governor, called the "State of the State Address".
