Obama’s last State of the Union Address: What you need to know

By Ronica Hutchinson–

On Jan. 2016, President Obama delivered his final State of the Union address.

With the 2016 presidential election just around the corner, Obama made a note to tie together his legislative agenda for the upcoming year – as well as alluding to improved bipartisanship amongst Democrats and Republicans in Washington.

While Obama’s final address touched on the list of his presidential achievements while in office, a substantial amount of the speech was directed towards issues that affect the millennial generation. In particular, Obama discussed college tuition costs, job opportunities, voter apathy and technological advancements.
