President Donald Trump is poised to speak Tuesday night in Washington D.C. in the first joint congressional address of his second term in the White House.

Media outlets, including Paste BN and other major television networks, plan to air live coverage of the address.

The president is expected to talk about what he's done since taking office in January and his agenda for the next four years.
