Sen. Elissa Slotkin delivered the Democratic response to Trump's address.
President Donald Trump addressed a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night, six weeks into his historic return to the White House.
During the speech, Trump said "America is back" and defended the tariffs on key U.S. trading partners. He touched on immigration and the mineral deal with Ukraine, but neglected to go into detail on his economic plan. The speech was also met with protests and disruptions from Democrats.
Trump continued his push to rename landmarks and vowed to rename the Panama Canal.
He repeated several false claims about its ownership and told Secretary of State Marco Rubio "good luck."
"We know who to blame if anything goes wrong," Trump said.
The mother of Jocelyn Nungaray -- a 12-year-old Houston girl who was sexually assaulted and killed last summer -- is in attendance at tonight's speech.
The two men accused in her assault and death are undocumented immigrants from Venezuela, who Trump called "two illegal alien monsters."
Trump accused former President Joe Biden of allowing the suspects to enter the U.S. through what he slammed as a "ridiculous open border" policy.
During his speech, Trump announced that a wildlife refuge near the victim's home would be renamed the "Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge" in her honor.
Trump asked Congress to help fund "golden dome" over the U.S. akin to Israel's Iron Dome defense system.
But experts told ABC News it wouldn't make much sense for the nation's national security, with allies located to the north and south and oceans on both sides.
Surpassing the one hour mark, Trump’s address is now longer than his first joint session of Congress in 2017, which lasted about one hour.
His 2019 State of the Union speech was one hour and 22 minutes long, which marked the third longest address.
Former President Bill Clinton’s 2000 speech was the longest, sitting at just over one hour and 28 minutes.
