Seeing who shows up as a guest to a president’s State of the Union address is like reading a brief on the administration’s agenda for the next year.
Other invitees include cancer survivors who support the administration’s Cancer Moonshot program; beneficiaries of the first lady’s Joining Forces initiative to help military families; a member of the Navajo Nation, which the first lady visited in April 2021; a DACA recipient; small business owners; an aspiring teacher; an ironworker from Pennsylvania; a college football player advocating for mental health; and Kate Foley, a 10th-grader from Rolling Meadows, Ill.
Also present will be Amanda Zurawski from Austin, who nearly lost her life to sepsis when she miscarried and was unable to get andue to Texas’s restrictive abortion laws; Deanna Branch, a mother of two from Milwaukee, whose family battled health problems from lead exposure in their drinking water; Doug Griffin of Newton, N.H.
There’s one invitee, though, who could upstage even Bono: Ruth Cohen, a 92-year old survivor of Auschwitz who know lives in Rockville, Md., and volunteers at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
