10:04 pm: Democrats chant the name of their Rx drug bill
When Trump announced that he would sign a bill "immediately" to lower drug prices, Democrats raised three fingers and chanted "HR 3! HR 3!" It's the legislative name of the prescription drug price bill that Democrats passed in the House last year. The bill has languished on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's desk since then.

What is the State of the Union address?
The State of the Union (SOTU) is an annual speech given by the sitting President that acts as a political and economic report of the previous 12 months.
It is an opportunity for Mr Trump to give an assessment of his first year in office as well as offering a glimpse at what policies to expect in the year ahead.
The tradition is a constitutional duty of all presidents. The US constitution reads: “He shall from time to time give to Congress information of the State of the Union and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.”
