State Of The Union Address

Republicans gear up to send the president a message about spending, ahead of today's State of the Union Address. The House GOP has scheduled a vote telling budget committee chair Paul Ryan to pare back non-security spending for the second half of this fiscal year to levels from 2008. The vote before President Obama's address will force lawmakers to show where they stand on spending cuts. Republicans have promised to reduce spending this year by $100 billion, but experts now expect that number to be closer to $50 billion.
