Newhouse Statement on President Trump’s State of the Union

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-WA) released the following statement in response to President Trump's 2026 State of the Union address:

"Tonight, President Trump delivered a lengthy speech that emphasized the state of our union is strong. Our Southern Border is secured, inflation is down, our Nation is safer, and we are reversing the damage caused by the Biden administration. With a Republican majority in DC, we have delivered on our promise to reduce government spending, keep taxes low, and establish energy dominance. Through the Working Families Tax Cut, we have prevented the largest tax hike in American history, increased the Child Tax Credit, and increased wages for middle class families. As I wind down my tenure in Congress, I remain committed to working with this administration to advance policies that benefit my constituents throughout Central Washington."

Rep. Newhouse's guest for the State of the Union was State Senator Matt Boehnke (R-Kennewick).
