President Biden is giving his second State of the Union address Thursday, when he’s expected to tout his administration’s accomplishments and set goals for the future in front of a Congress that is one of the most politically fractured in modern history.

Biden is making his case to a Democrat-dominated Senate that’s largely followed his lead on major legislation and a House Republican majority that’s actively investigating him for impeachable crimes.

The date of the speech, March 7, is the latest a State of the Union address has ever been delivered.

It’s just the second time a president’s in-person address to a joint session of Congress was not delivered in January or February. Biden delivered his first address to Congress March 1, 2022.

Nikki Haley suspending presidential campaign               Erin Doherty, Mike Allen / AXIOS

Former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley will announce Wednesday that she is suspending her presidential bid, a top Haley source told Axios.

Why it matters: Haley became the first woman to win a GOP presidential primary earlier this month, but her rise in the polls and 11th-hour endorsements were not enough to break former President Trump's commanding lead.

• She's expected to announce the news in remarks on Wednesday morning, the Wall Street Journal first reported.
• The source confirmed Haley won't endorse Trump. Instead, she'll encourage Trump "to earn the support of Republicans and independent voters who backed her," The Journal reports.

Haley's announcement effectively ends the GOP presidential primary and confirms a historic rematch between President Biden and Trump, who is also facing four criminal indictments.
