NEW: Fact-checking 5 of Sen. Tim Scott's claims in his rebuttal to President Joe Biden's remarks. bit.ly/3nujgWR #JointAddress 
Scott’s statement about what the science has shown is generally accurate, but omits public health experts’ warning that schools should implement infection control precautions. Schools have increasingly opened for in person instruction throughout the year, but some remain virtual.
Data from the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta backs this up, but it wasn’t unique to Trump. It was also true for most of President Barack Obama’s final two years in office, and the trend is holding under Biden.

FACT CHECK: Georgia's New Law Makes Elections LESS Secure
Wow. Powerful call from @POTUS to pass the #ForThePeopleAct and the #JohnLewis #VotingRightsAct and send them to his desk “right away.” What would these bills do? A lot. #JointAddress #JointSession
👉 First, they would guarantee the freedom to vote, and take a huge bite out of the wave of voter suppression laws sweeping the country, as explained here: brennancenter.org/sites/default/…
👉Modernize voter registration
👉Restore voting rights to the formerly incarcerated
👉Expand opportunities for early + mail voting
👉Require use of voter-verified paper ballots
👉Restore the full power of the landmark Voting Rights Act to combat discrimination.

President Biden's #AmericanJobsPlan looks to increase the federal corporate tax rate to 28%, which would raise the U.S. federal-state combined tax rate to 32.34%, higher than every country in the OECD, the G7, and all our major trade partners and competitors including China.
While President Biden’s #AmericanJobsPlan emphasizes making goods in America, the tax increases will raise the cost of production in the U.S, erode American competitiveness, and slow our economic recovery.

According to Congressional Budget Office and Tax Foundation modeling, tax increases on corporations are among the most harmful options to pay for the increased spending.

While we wait there's a hot mic. Someone is saying "Eliot Engel is upset."
In comes President Biden. A round of applause and plenty of fist bumps.

Do you have a favorite "historic precedent" for tonight's speech? Ours is that there isn't a need for a designated survivor because the whole Cabinet isn't in attendance. #JointSession
I am in the Capitol now, preparing for coverage.

Story will update.

At tonight's address, President Biden will not only unveil his $1.8 trillion American Families Plan (check my article for more on that) but he will also call on Congress to lower Rx drug prices and imbue Medicare w/the power to negotiate its own drug prices.
