DeGette Statement on Trump’s Lie-Filled State of the Union

February 24, 2026 Press Release WASHINGTON, D.C. — Tonight, Congresswoman Diana DeGette (CO-01) released the following statement after Donald Trump concluded his State of the Union address: “As expected, Donald Trump continued to mislead the American people about his record. His delusion was on full display as he lied about the economy, launched personal attacks against Members of Congress, and showed his focus is on himself. “Donald Trump has done nothing to make life more affordable for my constituents in Denver and has prioritized enriching himself and his friends. He is an embarrassment and a stain on our country.”
