She owns the chamber and the invitation. He has no right to deliver it without her invitation.
"He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper; he shall receive Ambassadors and other public Ministers; he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States."
Read this please. Thank you.
PS: It says nothing about being invited or anything else.
This is one of the most uninformed statements that I've ever seen.
1. Piglosi doesn't "own" anything. Congress is a Representative body elected by the people. This isn't a dictatorship. We don't give "ownership" of any elected branch to any one person. We don't give "ownership" of the chamber to any one person. The President has every right to enter that Chamber regardless of Piglosi thinks.
2. The Constitution says that the address is delivered to a JOINT SESSION of Congress. Article II Section 3. "He shall from time to time give to Congress information of the State of the Union and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient." So pray tell where does the Senate fit into that picture? Does Senator McConnell "own" the Senate in your asinine world? What do we do with two "owners" who conflict here? I'll answer that for you, your original premise is wrong. Piglosi doesn't "own" squat.
3. What the Constitution doesn't say is WHERE it must be held. If we are following the text, the President can call the Joint Session on the White House lawn if he wants. Piglosi doesn't have a say in this. Tradition indicates that it is held in the chamber of the House, but that isn't a requirement. It's really just for convenience. The House chamber is much larger than the Senate chamber and has more seating. That's why it's held there. Not because the Constitution dictates such.
NO !!! WE THE PEOPLE OWN THE CHAMBER ...
nazipelouszy KMA !!!!!!
She does own that chamber. It is the peoples house and we will not surrender it to mongoloids.
