Parliamentary, the net effect was to tell President Trump, you are not welcome in my house. Thank you. A presidency that has seen its fair share of first, this truly was unprecedented. The speaker of the house canceling her invitation to President Trump to deliver the state of the union on january january 29th. This shutdown, lets Work Together. We will welcome you. Speak with a income is much as a surprise to the president. The state of the union speech has been canceled by nancy pelosi because she doesnt want to hear the truth.
