Sen. Katie Britt will call President Joe Biden a “dithering and diminished leader” in the Republican rebuttal to his State of the Union address Thursday evening.
FILE - Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala.,, speaks during a news conference on the border, Feb. 15, 2023, on Capitol Hill in Washington. Britt will deliver the Republican response to President Joe Biden's State of the Union speech on Thursday, March 7, 2024. She is the youngest female senator and the first woman elected to the Senate from Alabama.
It's the third year in a row that Republicans have picked a woman to speak to the nation after Biden leaves the podium — and Britt’s remarks echo the same dark vision for the future under Biden and Democrats laid out by Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders in 2023 and Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds in 2022. She criticizes Biden’s foreign policy, including his chaotic 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan and talk of a renewed nuclear deal with Iran. The excerpts of her prepared remarks do not mention Ukraine’s war with Russia, as Biden has aggressively pushed the Republican-lead House to take up a Senate-passed aid package.
