President Donald Trump delivered his State of the Union address on Tuesday night, which the White House said outlined a "policy agenda both parties can rally behind." Yet the speech follows the longest shutdown in U.S. history — and the deadline to avoid another one is in less than two weeks.

NPR reporters covering the White House, Congress, immigration, national security and more annotated his remarks live, adding context and analysis.

Stacey Abrams, who narrowly lost the Georgia governor's race in November, is delivered the Democrats' response to President Trump's State of the Union address.

Reporters across the NPR newsroom also annotated her remarks, adding context and analysis.
