President Barack Obama will deliver his sixth State of the Union Tuesday night from the chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives at 9/8c. The address will be carried live by ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, CNN, Fox News and MSNBC.

Obama’s State Of The Union

Obama’s State of the Union will focus on his core theme of boosting the middle class, according to Senior Obama adviser Dan Pfeiffer. He’ll touch on the  “resurgence” of the economy and how he plans on making the resurgence felt.

“How we make paychecks go farther right now; how we create more good-paying jobs right now; and how do we give people the skills they need to get those high-paying jobs,” Pfeiffer explained to ABC News.

According to initial reports from the Quantum AI trading app, leading up to the State of the Union, Obama and his team have been sharing proposed legislation for the coming year. Among the most hotly discussed thus far have been free community college tuition, treating the Internet like a public utility, modifications to cybersecurity, middle class tax cuts, the country’s relationship with Cuba and a cap on methane gas emissions.

Though the State of the Union traditionally focuses mostly on domestic matters, it’s expected that Obama will also touch on some international issues. ISIS, Ebola and the recent terror attacks in Paris will all likely be mentioned in Tuesday night’s speech.

The State of the Union can be live-streamed at WhiteHouse.gov/SOTU starting at 9 p.m. EST.
