DescriptionPresident Barack Obama will give the State of the Union address on Wednesday, Jan. 27, the White House said Monday.

The Obama administration will release its budget proposal for 2011 on Monday, Feb. 1

The State of the Union speech, which will start at 9 p.m., will be the first of Obama's presidency. He gave an address to a joint session of Congress soon after taking office last year, but presidents don't give official State of the Union remarks in their first weeks in office.


The speech has traditionally been held the last Tuesday of January, but its date has varied in recent years.


The date had been up in the air as the White House and leading Democrats in Congress have been trying to hash out a final healthcare bill.
