According to Town Hall:

Last week House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested President Donald Trump shouldn't give the annual State of the Union Address on Tuesday, January 29. After inviting him to do so, Pelosi falsely stated the Secret Service couldn't adequately provide the necessary security due to the government shutdown.

Nancy, I am still thinking about the State of the Union speech, there are so many options - including doing it as per your written offer (made during the Shutdown, security is no problem), and my written acceptance. While a contract is a contract, I’ll get back to you soon!
