|
In his first State of the Union speech since the Republicans captured the
|
|
House of Representatives in November's election, the US president warned
|
|
Congress: "We will move forward together or not at all."
|
|
|
|
"The challenges we face are bigger than party, and bigger than politics. At
|
|
stake is whether new jobs and industries take root in this country, or
|
|
somewhere else. It's whether the hard work and industry of our people is
|
|
rewarded. It's whether we sustain the leadership that has made America not
|
|
just a place on a map, but a light to the world," he said.
|
|
|
|
Dozens of Democrats and Republicans arrayed before Mr Obama in the House of
|
|
Representatives chamber chose to sit next to each other in a gesture of
|
|
solidarity following the shooting of congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in a
|
|
rampage in Tucson that claimed six lives.
