WASHINGTON, D.C. – Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) today released the following statement in response to President Biden’s State of the Union Address.

“President Biden said the state of the union is strong. The reality to most Americans is very different. In the President’s first year, inflation has hit a 40-year high, more illegal immigrants have crossed the southern border than ever before, violent crime surged across the country, and you can literally count the number of foreign policy disasters by the number of embassies the U.S. evacuated. Unfortunately, tonight the President doubled down on the same radical policies that created these crises and left Americans worse off. This is the literal definition of insanity.

“If the President is going to right the ship, he needs a course correction. The obvious way to start is by ending his administration’s war on American energy, cutting off America’s imports of Russian oil, and reinstating the Keystone Pipeline and the thousands of good-paying Wisconsin jobs that come with it.”
