House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) isn’t planning to attend President Biden‘s first joint address to Congress on Wednesday and will instead give his ticket to another GOP lawmaker.
Scalise told reporters at the House GOP retreat in Orlando, Fla., on Monday that seating for lawmakers will be limited and that he wants to give an opportunity to first-term Republicans who have never attended a presidential address to Congress.
“There are not many of us that are going to be able to go, because they’re limiting it pretty dramatically,” Scalise said. “There are a lot of people that haven’t been before that want to go.”
