The White House announced Thursday that President Obama will hold a prime time press conference on Monday, February 9, at 7 p.m. Chicago time. The President will also address a joint session of Congress on Tuesday, February 24. That address is being billed as his first State of the Union, and that he will submit his first budget to Congress by the end of February or the beginning of March. No word yet on how this will impact his ability to drive the discussion on his economic recovery legislation.
