WASHINGTON — In his first formal State of the Union speech, President Donald Trump will push lawmakers to look at new levels of military spending in light of growing threats around the globe.
The wide-ranging speech, under a theme of “building a safe, proud and strong America,” to both chambers of Congress on Tuesday evening, will focus on the administration’s accomplishments in its first year and set an agenda for the coming year.
“I expect him to call for a significant increase in military spending,” Molly Reynolds, a governance studies fellow at the Brookings Institution, said Monday during a preview of the speech at the liberal-leaning Washington think tank.
Trump’s speech is expected to highlight a prosperous economy and low unemployment in his first year as president, while also pushing for new spending for infrastructure and national defense.
In a move that could bolster new military spending requests, Trump is expected to provide an update on the fight against terrorism and other global threats, including North Korea.
Marc Short, White House director of legislative affairs, said Trump will push Democrats to move on military spending, which he claims is being held hostage for other issues such as immigration.
“He’ll also talk about America’s strength – the fact that we are continuing to wipe out [Islamic State] but that we have growing threats,” Short told "Fox News Sunday." “We have dramatic threats on the global scene, yet where we are in Congress is we still can’t even pass a spending bill that funds our military … [H]e will ask that it’s time that we rebuild our military to keep America strong.” |
