Schiff criticized the lack of focus on issues that matter most to American families. He argued that during the State of the Union address, the president spent nearly two hours speaking without offering concrete proposals to address the soaring cost of living.
“I believe the absence of a coordinated response in the State of the Union was a grave error,” Schiff said. “It diverted attention from the critical issues—like how the president could help lower costs for everyday Americans struggling to afford a new home, pay their rent, secure healthcare, or manage child care expenses.”
