bullet::::- the president of the united states will give his state of the union address annually and in person, before a joint session of congress. this practice was followed by george washington and john adams but abandoned by thomas jefferson and not resumed until 1913, when woodrow wilson delivered his state of the union address in person. the constitution requires the president give an update on the state of the union "from time to time", but no specifics are outlined. speeches have been broadcast on radio since 1923 and 1947; the last state of the union message delivered only in writing was in 1981.
