Rep. Darren Soto Shares His Expectations For President Trump's First State Of The Union Address
President Trump addresses a joint session of Congress tomorrow to deliver his first State of the Union speech, which will set the tone for the next year in American politics.

Soto says he thinks it was a great decision and that Kennedy is "a strong progressive."
