Jan. 24 (UPI) -- Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Rep. Veronica Escobar of Texas will deliver the Democratic response to President Donald Trump's State of the Union address next month, the party's congressional leaders said Friday.
Considered two rising stars in the Democratic Party, Whitmer will deliver the English language version of the Democratic response and Escobar the Spanish. They will give the party's position immediately after Trump's address on Feb. 4.
