An hour before President Biden delivers his State of the Union address, CODEPINK Congress will deliver our own non-partisan People’s State of the Union. Join us as we discuss whether it’s time – in the interests of world peace and justice – to wish President Biden a happy retirement come 2024.



Yes, let’s wrestle with the tough questions:



How do progressives evaluate Biden’s two years in office? Should we welcome a primary challenge to Biden? Who is sitting on the back bench? Is Trump finished? Is DeSantis worse? As a non-profit, CODEPINK will not endorse political candidates, but neither shall we refrain from discussing high stakes politics.



Featuring

The Pentagon just suspended F-35 fighter jet engine deliveries pending an investigation into a disastrous F-35 crash in Texas. The crash only solidifies what we at CODEPINK and our global coalition against the F-35 have been saying: the F-35 is a total waste of resources and a disaster for the planet and humanity. Join us in telling Congress to #GroundtheF35 once and for all!
