WASHINGTON -- Speaker Nancy Pelosi has officially invited President Donald Trump to give a State of the Union address next month in the House Chamber.

Pelosi invited Trump to deliver the address before a joint session of Congress on February 5, 2019 in the House Chamber after a weeks-long government shutdown ended last week.

President Trump announced Friday that he plans to sign a bill opening the government for three weeks.
