The 2010 State of the Union Address was given by the 44th president of the United States, Barack Obama, on January 27, 2010, at 9:00 p.m. EST, in the chamber of the United States House of Representatives to the 111th United States Congress.[1][2] It was Obama's first State of the Union Address and his second speech to a joint session of the United States Congress. Presiding over this joint session was the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, accompanied by Joe Biden, the vice president, in his capacity as the president of the Senate.
The theme for President Obama's speech was “Rescue, Rebuild, Restore – a New Foundation for Prosperity”.[3][4] Among the topics that Obama covered in his speech were proposals for job creation and federal deficit reduction.[5]
Newly inaugurated Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell delivered the Republican response following the speech[6] from the floor of the House of Delegates at the Virginia State Capitol in front of over 300 people.[7]
