Kyrsten Sinema sits amidst Republicans as Biden shouts out some of her accomplishmentsLast edited Wed Feb 8, 2023, 02:56 PM - Edit history (1) This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Emile (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum). Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema listened to President Joe Biden's State of the Union speech while sitting among her Republican colleagues and moderate Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin. Sinema, I-Ariz., sat next to Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, in a section that also included Manchin, D-W.Va., and Sens. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska; Todd Young, R-Ind.; and Steve Daines, R-Mont. During the primetime televised address to Congress, Biden referred to several legislative achievements throughout his speech that prominently involved Sinema, as well as Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz. For example, Biden mentioned what he called the “once-in-a-generation” infrastructure law that Sinema helped broker with former Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio.
