State of the Union: What Should Be Addressed?

President Trump will deliver his State of the Union Address later today. With a myriad of issues on his plate, the focus of his speech isn't particularly easy to predict but according to a new survey by Morning Consult, the most pressing topics for voters are health care (82 percent) and the economy/jobs (81 percent). 78 percent are looking to the president for direction and leadership. Two issues which have made headlines during Trump's presidency so far - race relations and illegal immigration - are also on the list, with 69 and 66 percent, respectively.
